It’s Earth Day! Did you celebrate today? Did you mark the occasion? As I washed out my reusable coffee cup at work, it occurred to me that there is more that I could be doing – that we all could be doing – to be kind to the earth. In keeping with DECA’s general mantra to start locally, how about a community clean-up?
An Earth Day Request from DECA
This weekend on Saturday April 26 & Sunday April 27, we are asking you to adopt your block, or street, or more! You pick the time to pick up the litter, and if you could a couple more things:
1) Tell your neighbours;
2) Separate the garbage from the recycling;
3) Send decacleanup@gmail.com a note telling us where you plan to clean up pick up (or where you did pick up). Send us a photo! Or let us know on Twitter using our #DanforthEast hashtag or by including our handle (@DECADiaries) in your tweet. Post it to our Facebook Page so that we can help you spread the word!
Let’s have the most litter-free neighbourhood in the city!
Merril Park Dog Association – Spring Cleaning
Merrill Park Dog Association is hosting its annual spring cleaning this Saturday, April 26th at 9:30 am at Merrill Park (by the train tracks just west off of Woodbine.) The poster with all the details is below! Learn more about them at merrilldogpark.wordpress.com. Oh, and yes, participating at this event would totally count as part of the DECA Earth Day request!
