Philly’s 3rd Annual Spring Cleanup had its biggest cleanup ever thanks to greenies like you with its UnLitter Us Campaign!
Over 11,000 volunteers worked at 231 official project sites to collect over 1.3 million lbs of trash, 140K lbs of recycling, 50 parks & recreation centers cleaned and 763 neighborhood blocks cleaned!
Incredible numbers, Philly! But how can you keep it up for this Earth week (and always…)
Here’s some suggestions:
- Join Philly’s Recycling Pays Program – Earn sweet points towards your fav places & merch for recycling! How much easier can it get?
- Shop local businesses like the Big Green Earth Store (or visit them for Earth SaturDay this weekend)
- Eat green desserts at the Night Kitchen Bakery
- Cheer on the Phillies or Eagles – they both have BIG recycling initiatives at stadiums
