Summer just around the corner but what about the trash!

There are so many bunnies in the park now as well as ducks, dogs, birds, and squirrels!  Its great to see everything come to life again.  There has been a re multitude of trash in the park lately most likely from the beautiful weather we've been having lately.  It is quite obvious that students from yes Senior High have been littering like crazy people.  But on a positive note people seem to be interested in what we are doing, they always ask what were doing and its really cool when they know what we are talking about.  I think it really encourages the older generations to see us interested in our natural surroundings.  I have never seen a negative response and hope we never get one.  Back to the trash, I hope next time there will be less!

  1. I hope that there will be less trash next time too. I was really shocked when we went out.

  2. It is shocking to see how much trash there is around Pioneer and it is really sad! Next time we go out for phenology, I say we each pick up at least one piece of trash and throw it away.

  3. So... we have established that the amount of trash increases with the thawing of snow (releases trash held in ice/snow on the roadways and throughout the park) but what of the increase now?
