See how beautiful it is, this image doesn't show the trash. :)

Family and a friend cleaning up.

When I received Globe 17 from a friend of mine, I knew immediately what I wanted to do. I wanted our family to take some time on a Saturday morning and clean up the creek bank in the park behind our house. The park has a beautiful walking trail with a creek running along it, but sadly is littered with trash that gets caught in the brush as it sweeps down the creek bank. We had the opportunity to pick up trash around the most visible area below the bridge. We would love to do more areas in the future, but this was a good start to clean up a small area of our community

THINK

Someone gives you a globe and the EARTH is in your hands. Think about your biggest environmental concerns.

ACT

Take actions, even small ones, to address your environmental concerns.  Here are some ideas.

BLOG

Write about what holding the earth inspires you to think about and do. Consider including photos of you, the globe, and your environmental action.

PASS

Pass the globe to someone else — quickly (ideally within a week), to keep up momentum.  If you don’t have a recipient in mind, let us help.
