Zuri+Kornegay's+Big+Sweep

The Big Sweep was an event where a group of volunteers went to Marsh Creek Bridge to pick up litter. There were different groups that went to different sections of the bridge. My group was Me, Hamilton, Aniyah, Olivia, JaeKouk, and Hazael. We cleaned up cans, glass and other harmful non-degradable items from the side of the roads and also near the swamps. We put recyclables into clear bags and trash into black bags. It was a great experience because I got to see my fellow Enloe scholars helping out the community.

From the volunteer event I learned that litter can be harmful to a lot of species. Some people think that it is not a big deal when they litter because the police are not around, but in reality it is. The roads sometimes may look clean,but down in the woods and creeks there as a lot more litter. The less people litter, the less species get harmed.
