Litter Scavenger Hunt

Litter can be found all around us outside when we stop to look for it. You might see wrappers, plastic bags, soda cans, plastic water bottles, or even glass on the ground when you are out on a walk. Litter is harmful for many reasons. One main reason is that it can end up in our waterways and in the ocean. Both ocean and land animals mistake litter for food, and it can harm or even kill the animals that eat it.

What can we do to make a difference when it comes to litter? One easy way we can help is to pick up litter and dispose of it properly so that our oceans and animals are not impacted by our trash. We can also educate people about the harms of littering so that they will make the right choice when it comes to throwing away their trash!
