Please join this Ireland Facebook Group and participate on the beautiful Emerald Isle and beyond.

Many thanks to Sinead for getting this started!

From the fb page:

‘One Piece of Litter a Day – Ireland’ is an anti-litter campaign that aims to reverse the growing litter epidemic in our beautiful country. The philosophy is simple but powerful: If one person picked up an empty can, bottle or cigarette butt each day for a year, there would be 365 less pieces of rubbish blighting our land. Now imagine what would happen if 1,000, 10,000 or even 100,000 people in Ireland did the same. Collectively, we could make a real impact on our litter problem.

To be a success, this campaign needs YOU. Will you make the small but significant change in your daily life and commit to picking up one piece of litter a day?

If you are in the area, please consider supporting Serve Rhode Island in a clean up of Roger Williams Park Pond.  This organization’s  goal is to engage  Rhode Islanders to help clean up the environment to help fisheries and wildlife.

Volunteer to clean up the park, from 9:00am-2:00pm on April 17, 2010. Registration and information is on their website.

Please join in if you are in Rhode Island, or do a cleanup where you are.

There have clearly been people all over the world for generations that have shared the idea that cleaning up– and taking daily positive action– is a great way to live, and a worthy action to share and spread.  Tuula-Maria Ahonen, Founder of the Finnish Litter Movement is clearly one such light making a positive difference.

Litter Project supports her work wholeheartedly. We also humbly hope that this website helps spread a similar idea to even more people that it might reach the corners of the globe. At this time in human history, we clearly need all the bright lights shining.

After you’ve gone green… it’s time to go clean…

pick up a piece every day
