To learn more about the cleanup, please contact July Lewis at jlewis@asri.org or 401-949-5454 x 3044. You can also visit the Ocean Conservancy’s Coastal Cleanup site. The results of last year’s cleanup are available here.

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?

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.
