Ophumanangels: Litterwalk #10/CleanPlanet #5, Ostara Edition

in cleanplanet •  6 years ago 

Happy Ostara/Spring Equinox, Steem fam! It's time for a #litterwalk in honor of Mama Danu.

After I've rested a bit, I intend to get on Twitter and do the thing where you tag companies with their litter you found. Coke:

Burger King:

Corona:

de la Rosa, tho I don't seem to be able to find them on Twitter. There were at least a half dozen of these wrappers, I stopped counting:

Nabisco:

The Parking Lot Drug Den has moved on from pot pipe to crack pipe to now, needles! Wheee.

But luckily, I had found a plastic egg carton (?? weirdest find of the day), so I used that as my sharps container and in the trash they went.

^^ Egg Carton near the top, car parts in front. They widened the sidewalk to help prevent the NUMEROUS car accidents happening at the corner, and yet, there were car parts everywhere.

Gotta love when I find bags of trash ten yards from a dumpster.

I must have picked up at least 100 cigarette butts today. My body is literally trembling from so much bending over and squatting. I am EARNING those actifit steps today, y'all. I think a couple hundred of them today are SQUATS!

ALL THIS WAS JUST AROUND MY BUILDING. I seriously got no further than circumnavigating my BUILDING. Not my block ...my building. And I last litterwalked SIX WEEKS ago.

Humans are nasty.

Into the dumpster:

My now filthy gloves. Yes, I wash them after every litterwalk:

That's it, y'all, I'm exhausted. Gonna post this and make me some coffee! Don't forget to enter my #ophumanangels contest if you do your own litterwalk in the next few days (see my wall for the one that says "OHA contest," I don't have a link on my phone).

Have a great day! <3

Oh, I totally just realized I should have written my sign to prove the date mirror backwards if I was going to hold it in a mirror. LOL!
OH YEAH! And I also didn't mention (this is how tired I am), that two different people thanked me for picking up litter while I was doing it today. I don't think anyone has ever said thank you before, and I've done eleven litterwalks in this neighborhood (one before Steem, five more on Steem but before Clean Planet, then five since Clean Planet became a thing). It was nice. :)

The garbage sure is nasty...but you are beautiful and amazing for cleaning it up. Almost hard to believe you only circled your building. Humans are choking mother earth...it makes me sad. What is this #ophumanangels?

It's basically doing random acts of kindness. I explain it in the contest post: https://steemit.com/ophumanangels/@phoenixwren/recovery-day-ulog-oha-contest

Thank you for the link! :D
