Clean Roads Clear Future

At Clear Roads Clean Future, our purpose is simple:

To reduce highway litter and create cleaner, safer, and healthier communities for everyone.

Litter is more than just an eyesore. Research from Karimi and Faghri shows that trash along highways introduces harmful toxins and microplastics into the soil and waterways, threatening both wildlife and human health. Once introduced into the soil, it can leach harmful toxins, which would be harmful to both wildlife and the community, as it can get into the waterways and our drinking water. According to Forbes, it also leads to accidents and costs taxpayers millions of dollars each year in cleanup efforts.

• We believe that by:

  • Educating people about the impacts of littering

  • Organizing community cleanups

  • Advocating for stronger litter laws and fines

We can protect our local environment, save money, build pride in our community, and at the same time make Gretna beautiful. 

Every action matters, whether it’s picking up a bottle on the roadside or spreading awareness to friends and family. Together, we can make a real difference.
