I\u2019m hoping to convince others to take the initiative of collecting garbage, and to put it where it belongs; in the bin! I know I\u2019m not alone, I\u2019m certainly not the only one doing this on a regular base, but there\u2019s much work to be done. We also have to change our mind set and way of life.
