Why should I care?

I grew up in the same house and small town for 17 years...

Who wouldn't love to have a ticket next week to here?

Would you be surprised to know what you do today

Take a look at the video below

Could this be your fork?

Think about the last time you went to the store:

• Did you bring home your food in plastic bags?
• Did you bring your own recyclable fabric bags?
• Have you thrown away a plastic bottle lately?
• Do you use large garbage bags at home?

What if you had to keep all your own trash...

Let's look at some facts

• The Mississippi River carries an estimated 1.5 million metric tons of nitrogen pollution into the Gulf of Mexico each year, creating a “dead zone” in the Gulf each summer about the size of New Jersey
• Approximately 40% of the lakes in America are too polluted for fishing, aquatic life, or swimming.

Your turn to talk...

• What causes pollution?
• Who is responsible for pollution?
• Does it make more sense to clean up the water or just help keep the water clean???

What if I told you there was something you could do...
