Comments on: Atwitter, but not bitter, about litter (Day 51)… http://greenasathistle.com/2007/04/20/atwitter-but-not-bitter-about-litter-day-51/ making one change every day to greenify my life (and hopefully not being too smug about it) Sat, 11 Feb 2012 21:19:18 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: gettinggreen http://greenasathistle.com/2007/04/20/atwitter-but-not-bitter-about-litter-day-51/#comment-724 Sat, 21 Apr 2007 02:16:37 +0000 http://greenasathistle.com/2007/04/20/atwitter-but-not-bitter-about-litter-day-51/#comment-724 Just wanted to say thanks to Maryam and Genevieve, two fine girls at my office who came with me to pick up litter when they overheard me telling my editor I was taking 20 minutes off work to do this “makeover”. That made 6 hands instead of 2 today, and I think we got a lot accomplished. We also had people ask what we were doing and informed them about the campaign, which in turn spread awareness — so yet another example of how little deeds can affect bigger change.

I’ve actually seen a few people get out of their car, pick it up off the street and throw it back in the persons car! That’s an awesome site…I don’t recommend it…who knows if some weird new form of “Road Trash Rage” will ensue!

Cheers…
