trash everywhere

Mike and I participated today in an event today that is part of our beliefs at mindsalt – taking care of the world we live in. We spent the morning cleaning up trash along the Ohio river. The event was started by Living Lands and Waters and was sponsored by Athens Paper and Sappi.

We were boated to a spot in which 22 volunteers, some college students on spring break, packed garbage bags full of soda bottles, tobacco containers, shoes,
styrofoam, plastic oil cartons. Plastic, plastic and more plastic.

Our thanks go out to Living Lands and Waters for their efforts and dedication to an overwhelming task.
