That was the first thing I have done so far for the environment that's big. All the other times I just worked on saving energy at home. But this is different. I joined a table where people were handing out trash bags and gloves to people willing to help. I decided that this was my chance. So I jumped. My grandma and sister helped too, and we managed to get a lot of trash picked up. But most importantly, we did it together. I've only been at it starting from this year, but I think I can accomplish a lot soon enough. There is a local organisation in my neighbourhood called Friends of Humber Bay Park that was picking up trash today from the lake. It makes me feel all warm & fuzzy inside to helping like this. I like to put it this way: there are people who trash the planet. There are people who just stand by and do nothing. But there are also people who clean up
after theirs and other people's messes. That last thing is what I am starting to do now. I am now embarking upon my Journey of Change.
