BEarthday Clean-up Recap

 Ah, so the Clean Vegas Initiative’s first Earthday clean-up event I hosted went phenomenal! I’m really proud of what we got cleaned. It was an awesome hands-on learning experience. Like the first thing I'd learned is that 12-4 is the hottest hours of the day. The whole thing was conceived about a month prior, but once you get the ball rolling, there's no stopping it. Man was it expressive, imagine just getting started on screen-printing a day prior to the event. A great piece of advice I picked up along the way is that if you don’t sacrifice for what you want; what you want becomes the sacrifice. To be quite frank, only my friend jesus showed up besides my family but this whole thing wasn’t for me. Through me yes, but for me no. Simply to show some luv and appreciation for mama mundo. And boy-o did we get a lot cleaned! A total of 13 42-gallon trashbags. I’ll be the first to say it though, a lot of it was air, but crispy plastic is hard to condense. The glass bag was pretty impressive though; could hardly get that thing off the ground! You can really spend days out there cleaning and hardly dent the amount of trash out there. It’s absurd. Anyways, below I’ve provided some pictures and videos of the whole thing. Thanks for spending this time reading <3
