I can’t remember when I started collecting litter. But it was when I got tired of seeing litter nearby and 1 that no one else was going to pick it up.
I live near a forest in Ohio, America. I can walk there 2 three minutes. I used to love going there to play with my dog. But one day there was 3 much litter there that I became very unhappy. I decided I had to clean up the forest. I wanted to feel happy 4 there again.
I 5 my first trip to clean the forest that afternoon. I took a big black rubbish bag with me. Ten minutes after starting to pick up litter, my bag was 6 ! It had cans, bottles, broken glasses and newspapers in it. From then on, I went to the forest four times a year to pick up litter. I’m often there for three hours. It makes me feel 7 to do something for the environment.
After each trip, I look at all the litter that I’ve found. If 8 of it is recyclable(可回收的) , I keep it. I can’t understand 9 people drop litter. But I will keep picking it up until they stop dropping it. I know I am only doing a small bit to 10 the earth, but I still think it is important.
