River Clean Up Reflection

For this extra Credit assignment we were allowed to do a river clean up in a nearby city. This was a great opportunity to give back tot the community and help the environment stay clean. For the assignment we were given this clinchers that can pick up trash and recycle and we would put it in these trash bags. It was a pretty fun experience do to the fact that I was hanging with friends while doing something to help the environment. For the clean up I went to the one in Cupertino. In Cupertino I met Charlie, Robbie, and Gabby and we were all in a group and we just went around the creek picking trash up. In my opinion the most commonly found item that harmed the environment was definitely glass bottles and broken glass. the down side to the cleaning the creek was getting eaten by  bugs, but besides that it was fun. Everyone only stayed for about one hour. the only people who stayed were Charlie and I and we had a pretty good time just talking and cleaning the creek. I would definitely due it in the future. Something that I really took form doing this is that we need to treat our environment better and recycle and not dump whatever we want into the wherever we want. we need to treat the environment with care, because it is only hurting us in the future.
