The Earth isn’t in a good condition at the moment. The earth needs our HELP!! This is all because pollution, garbage, cutting trees, using plastic, no recycling and so much more. Garbage IS ONE Main ISSUE. Nowadays it’s very sad going to the countryside and all one can see is garbage in the plants, on the floor and in ponds. Plants and trees give us oxygen to breathe. Also we don’t want everywhere looking like a dump! So we can help by picking up the garbage left on the floor at the local park, countryside, beaches and lots more places.
