New York City is changing their way on collection trash and recyclables. Since the 1800s, the people of New York didn’t care about where the trash would end up, such as the ocean.

What do you think about that? Would you have done that kind of action if you saw someone littering in front of you face? Or would you have done something else? You could do a similar action by cleaning up the mess that humans provide and share with people about what they can do to help you and other people out there to clean up the mess.
