The simple act of picking up trash can make a difference.

The old saying holds true, one of the easiest ways to make the world a better place is to leave it better than you found it. But at times our world’s environmental problems can seem overwhelming and it can be challenging to know the best way to support our global community. Pick It Up is a nonprofit that aims to provide people with a simple way to make a difference. We encourage you to bring along a Pick It Up bag and pick up litter when you can. This may seem like a small step, but it’s a step in the right direction, and with numbers we can make an impact. With this act you are helping maintain the beauty and health of the areas you visit. As Yvon Chouinard founder of Patagonia once said, “The cure for depression is action.” By doing we make a difference and feel better while doing so. I encourage you to Pick It Up!
