Breaking news, citizens of SuperForest.
Watch video below.
I’m here to report back on Clean Up Oz Day, which took place on Sunday. This was such a great experience for me. For a long time, I was too scared to sign up and take part in this great cause. Why? I guess I felt a little embarrassed to be picking up trash from the street, which is silly because while bending down to collect countless bits of rubbish last Sunday, I actually felt really proud of myself. I felt as though I were finally doing something. That said, the experience was also a little disheartening. It occurred to me that the following day, all the garbage I’d collected would likely be back on the street and my efforts would have been for nothing.
I’m not sure how to reconcile these feelings, but, in the end, I guess Clean Up Australia Day has changed me and that’s as great a start as any. After hauling my giant white rubbish bag around my neighbourhood, I’m now more awake to what needs to be done, and how littering is a big insult to beautiful Mother Earth who brings us so much happiness and light. I shall pass this on to my friends and all you mighty SuperForesters, who will hopefully spread that message even further.
Yours in hope and cleanliness,
April
