Community Clean Up In Progress

Community Clean Up In Progress I have created this page to show the efforts my supporters and I are making to clean up the trash in my community of Juneau, Ak. Venmo -McRae-1.

Paypal โœŒ๏ธโค๏ธ I wanted to make a difference. I created this page to bring awareness to our litter problem. To show efforts made to combat it and hopefully encourage others to mind their trash and help pitch in. I am not a non profit or a business. All efforts made are on my time, my vehicle, my dime, with the exceptions of the generous donations of supplies received by my community membe

rs. I am working on becoming more than just a gal picking up trash. But until then I hope to spread awareness, encourage others and most of all make a difference for us all. If you make an effort please post pics on the page so we can thank you, every effort counts.

In Germany, many parking lots are doing double duty as part of the country's "sponge city" strategy . Instead of traditional, water-sealing asphalt, these lots are paved with permeable grass grids .

The reinforced tiles bear the load of a vehicle while the open spaces are filled with soil and grass, allowing rainwater to infiltrate naturally . This design combats urban flooding, recharges groundwater, and filters out heavy metals and oils before they reach the water table .

Furthermore, replacing heat-absorbing asphalt with living grass helps lower the urban heat island effect, cooling the surrounding air by several degrees during summer heatwaves .

Sometimes, the most innovative infrastructure looks just like a green lawn . ๐Ÿ…ฟ๏ธ๐ŸŒฑ

They may look like a canvas of cotton candy, but these rainbow nets are actually a brilliant form of pest control.

Stretched over crops, the kaleidoscope of colors confuses insects like aphids and whiteflies, scrambling their ability to locate the plants underneath. Some farmers have cut pesticide use by 25โ€‘50% without losing yields.

The nets also act as shields against harsh sun, heavy rain, and wind, regulating humidity and reducing plant stress. It's a simple, sustainable trick that lets farmers protect harvests without dousing them in chemicals.

Practical science, painted in every color of the spectrum. ๐Ÿง‘โ€๐ŸŒพ๐ŸŒˆ

Yesterday we took a walk thru the Dredge lake area and picked up any trash we found. We also cleaned the parking area before we left.

If you fish in the ponds and lakes please remember to take your empty bait jars, hook bags and snack trash with you when you go. If you leave them behind you are not a fisherman or outdoors man, you are a litter bug.

A clean community matters.
