No Trash November is Tennessee’s statewide call to action for a cleaner, safer, and more beautiful environment, and you’re invited to be part of it! Whether you’re new to litter prevention or already leading the charge in your community, here are five simple ways you can participate in No Trash November this year.
1. Don’t Litter!
This one may seem obvious, but it’s the foundation of the movement: Don’t litter.
Since you’re here, chances are you are already following this golden rule. So take it a step further, help spread the word by reminding others why it matters. Every piece of trash prevented is a win for Tennessee’s communities, roadways, and waterways.
2. If you see litter, pick it up.
Everyone can take personal responsibility for the litter on their street, at their work or in their local area. By making sure that trash makes it into a receptacle, you’re making a huge difference right where you live, work and play. Snap a pic while you’re picking up litter and tag it with #NobodyTrashesTennessee and #NoTrashNovember.
3. Join a cleanup event near you.
Take your litter prevention commitment to the next level and sign up to join a cleanup event. It’s a fun, rewarding way to take action with neighbors, friends, or coworkers, and it directly improves your local environment. Not sure where you might find one? Here’s a great online calendar of all the cleanup events around the state. Check back because new cleanup events are being added frequently.
