The Earth Day 2019 Cleanup
As we march towards the 50th anniversary of Earth Day, Earth Day Network annually organizes several events surrounding environmental reform. For instance, this year alone there are several campaigns aimed at organizing communities such as the Earth Day 2019 Cleanup and The Great Global Cleanup. During the month of April, The Earth Day Network joined with grassroots organizations and community members to clean up green spaces, urban landscaped and waterways, all done through volunteers across the country. With thousands of volunteers, you can get involved too. They heavily advocate for local community cleanups, which means community trash pickups, aimed at helping solve the major pollution epidemic. Apart from the Earth Day 2019 Cleanup, The Earth Day Network has partnered with nations throughout the world to build Earth’s largest cleanup crew. Together they are actively removing billions of pieces of trash from neighborhoods, beaches, rivers, lakes, trails, and parks. In doing so, they are reducing waste and plastic pollution, improving habitats, and preventing harm to wildlife and humans. Altogether, Earth Day Network is “advocating for policies that reduce pollution, reaching people everywhere to take individual actions that reduce waste, and organizing massive global cleanup for April 2020.” Visit Earthday.org to find out how you can get involved!
