Do you do volunteer work outside? Otherwise, do you do anything to help keep your local wilderness clean and unmolested for future generations? You do pick up litter when you see it and kill invasive species, don't you?

>pick up litter when you see it

>kill invasive species

I've done both janny work with adopt a highway and many many hours of cleaning up trash from fucking inhuman slobs litter. And mess with invasive species removal because I'm terrible at identifying plants. It's rewarding to see all the shit you've picked up go into the trash. Also sometimes the voulunteer events give out free food.

I pick up litter (a lot of it seeks to be from thru hikers) and carry a little laplander folding saw to clear blowdowns on the trail that aren't too difficult.
I'd like to do the "adopt a trail" program for the wmnf but I'm almost 3 hours away and I'd hate to take on that responsibility and then neglect it

The local hike has a peak
People leave potatoes there
I take a backpack and trash can liners and pack out the most rotten potatoes and gay and trans flags
I prioritize the inorganic things like gay flags for the environment, y’see

my church group adopted a 7 mile loop dayhike trail with a viewpoint of a waterfall(Olympic peninsula)
we send large groups to do chainsaw type trail maintenance in the end of winter storm season and pick up litter in small groups every 2 weeks in the spring and summer
it's a great excuse to hike a nice trail regularly and with company too

Trasharoo is always full when I leave and I kick every useless rock carin over that I see. Good enough?
