There is no better reason to take action than protecting our wildlife.

How does litter damage our ecosystems?

  • Litter is often mistaken for food and consumed by all forms of life. This can lead to poisoning or choking.

  • Litter can be bulky or entangling, which can trap wildlife.

  • Many types of hazardous chemicals can leak into the ground or waterways, leading to environmental contamination.

  • Litter breaks down into microplastics, which are harder to clean up and can travel further.

How does litter get into our ecosystems?

When litter gets into storm drains, it travels until it ends up in our waterways.

Highways have miles of trash build up that are swept into ecosystems everyday.

People discard litter every day either in urban areas or in these precious ecosystems.

There is no consistent standard of cleaning for urban areas, so litter can sit and be spread by the wind much easier

It can feel daunting to solve such an issue like litter. But we at Gone for Good know that by spreading awareness, working together and picking up litter piece by piece we can make it a reality. How can you help?
