WHY IS TRASH SO BAD FOR THE WATER?

You might think that some trash isn’t so bad for the water… but take a look at this graphic below.  It’s staggering how long it takes our household items to decompose!  In the meantime, consider all of the damage it’s doing to the plant and animal life in and around the water


WHERE DOES THE TRASH COME FROM?

How does so much trash get into the water?  Is it horrible people doing horrible things?  Not necessarily!  The source of the trash can be broken down into three categories… Careless, Deliberate and Accidental.  Does YOUR BEHAVIOR fall into one of these categories?


What are the dangers of having trash in the water?

Trash in our rivers isn’t just an eyesore—it’s a ticking time bomb for our ecosystems. When litter enters waterways, it can poison wildlife, choke plants, and introduce toxic chemicals that ripple through the food chain. Protecting our rivers means safeguarding our health, our environment, and the natural beauty that we all cherish.
