Blog Green

Mrs Scriber from Scriber’s Web had the idea to do a project about trash.
To go and take pictures of trash.

I go one step further and call you to go out into nature with me in January or into your neighborhood, take big trash bags and gloves with you.
Take pictures, lots of them. Before, during and after collecting the mess of our fellow countrymen.

Let’s post the pictures on our blogs, at least.
Let’s send them to CNN ireport or any other news agency.
Let’s make some noise.

Are you game?

I am.

Raise your hand in the comment section and I’ll add you to the list:

Einerseits eine tolle Sache, aber ich hatte im Rahmen meiner beruflichen Tätigkeit genug damit zu tun. Ich mache nie wieder den Dreck von anderen weg. Trotzdem wünsche ich euch viel Spaß dabei und beim Fotografieren auch. Wir werden es ja online verfolgen können.

Kein Problem, kann ich verstehen.
Lust habe ich dazu auch keine, aber vielleicht passiert ja hier mal was.
Es ist echt ziemlich widerlich da draussen.

Wonderful. More exercise is one of my resolutions this coming year...and I know just where to walk, because I go there often. Its a little road along a river and it is annoyingly trashed! So count me in!

I've always been fascinated by the dark spots on the sidewalk made by squashed lumps of chewing gum. Sometimes they make interesting patterns.

I'll post about this tomorrow. I'd like the poster you created so I can post it on my blog. I tried downloading it but:

1. I don't have your permission.
2. The quality is not good.

:yes: You can count me in. As a matter of fact, I have been doing something of the sort for the past two years, but I did not carry a camera with me. Now I will. It's an excellent idea.

I'm in. My friends that were just visiting mentioned the amount of trash that is on the side of the road in my neighborhood and today I see your sight. It must mean that I am supposed to go pick up that trash.
