For all of us, this generation and the next, there is simply no place in our lives for litter. And yet, it’s everywhere we look, and unfortunately, it does belong to all of us. So, let’s come together, and create a litter-free, clean California once and for all. Let’s do it. Together.
Picture your favorite spot in California. Now, imagine just one piece of litter ruining that picture. Together, let’s change that.
