    It meant alot  to me that strangers would occasionally join me in picking up litter in my  community.  This included a homeless man who has come to join me several times while picking up litter in the park.  I think of all of them as “plastic-free heroes”.

    Obviously better than the plastic and stuffing in most toys plus my pup seems just as happy!

    One way is to promote great local companies that are making this effort!

    I didn't do so great with this one.  I never found a great strategy to work and should just get a small "grabber".  I ended up going to the park at the top of my street and picking up a bunch to make up for missing so many days.  If anyone has a good day to day idea, let me know!
