I’m really concerned about plastic pollution in our community.

That's a great focus! You can start by organizing clean-up events, raising awareness through social media, and collaborating with local businesses to reduce plastic use. Would you like tips on organizing an event?

Consider the location, date, and time for your event. Make sure to promote it through flyers and social media. Also, think about gathering volunteers and providing supplies like gloves and trash bags. Do you have a specific date in mind?

I’m thinking about next month. How can I get volunteers?

You can reach out to local schools, community centers, and youth organizations. Social media is also a powerful tool to attract volunteers. Create an event page and encourage people to share it!
