I've been thinking about getting supplies to start picking up trash around my neighborhood for a while now and just stumbled into Adopt One Block so I signed up

I live downtown in a pretty decent city overall, but it's frustrating how much trash I see sometimes. The nature even downtown is really nice, especially around this time of year. But, the trash totally ruins the vibes. I wanted to sort of practice the whole "be the change you want to see in the world" thing, so I have been thinking about just getting a trash grabber and some heavy duty trash bags and some gloves and picking up non-hazardous trash to maybe make some sort of dent, even if it's only small. I'm glad I stumbled upon that site since they give those supplies to folks for free!

Tbh I don't actually think it will make a huge difference, but I want to at least try. Sometimes I'll see the same trash around the same area for days, so maybe it will make even the smallest noticeable impact at least around my own home if I do clean ups over the weekend.

Anyone have any experience doing something similar?
