Hi guys,
I just would like to share with you our last sunday afternoon.
Yesterday, my family had nothing planned for the afternoon (usually the kids have sport during the weekend).
So we decied to take the bikes and to go in the countryside to make a clean up party.
It was great as the kids were pleased to do this and made like a game : Who will be the first to see the waste?
In order to do this activity we took our biggest backpack (70 liters), put a garbage bag inside and took some gloves.
At the beggining, I was carrying the backpack and picking up the garbage but we found it was not convenient. My wife proposed to take the backpack and the kids and myself were picking up the garbage.
We have found lot of plastic bottles, cigarettes boxes, beer cans. All together, we have picked up one big bag of garbage. When we arrived home, I took the time to short the bag out in order to send everything to recycle.
Thanks @ermest for this great project.
See you around

Hello @Julien44
Thank you for sharing with us.
It's really a good job, I think it will inspire other local guides too.

Hey, well don't @Julien44, exactly with the spirit of LocalGuidesCleanTheWorld, where every day can be the right day for a cleanup. Very educative too, I believe your kids were very excited in doing this.
If you have an album to share, and a position in Google Maps, @DavidTito will be for sure very happy to add your post on the worldwide “Mymaps of plastic pollution”
David too will have something interesting to share with us
Great

@AbdullahAM, Thank you and of course I hope it will inspire some others!
@Chesoli, Thanks
@ErmesT, You are right, very good spirit and educative at the same time. Now, I always carry a carbage bag and gloves with me ! This time was a bit different that the other as we went biking with the goal of picking up the waste. Kids like doing it and I fell they are well educated on that subject! Here is the album and the location is Nantes.
@LucioV, thanks
@DavidTito, Thanks and here above are the details. No worries, it is not urgent ;-). I am looking forward to see what you have to share. I already saw few pictures in Hangouts ;-).
See you all round
