People need to stop litter; Please use a trash can

Saturday, May 10, 2008 11:05 PM EDT

I see you don't care about your city, 'cause I walked to school today, which I don't do a lot. I was sad to what I saw. I saw garbage up and down the street, even in the creek. And get this -- they threw the dirt on the sidewalk from the storm drain.
And guess what? I'm 9 going on 10 in September; I cleaned the creek and I bet tomorrow you can't even see I cleaned the creek.

And glaciers in Alaska, North Pole and other places are melting and after they melt, we'll have too much water and too little land because of carbon dioxide coming out of our cars.

So please stop driving, start walking, stop littering and find a trash can.

" Don't give up. If the creek gets messed up, get a friend to help you clean it again. If you can influence some friends to help, you will have even more effect on the environment. Keep up the good work and never give up! "
