Human waste pollution and its effect on the environment is a major global issue, and the situation has worsened to the extent where estimates suggest that "plastics in the oceans will outweigh fish by 2050". In addition, 80% of human waste found in the oceans are believed to originate from land, with urban litter ending up in the seas due to rain and wind. To solve this major issue, it is important that we dutifully pick up our litter.
Litter picking leads to achieving the 14th, 11th, and 12th goals of the SDGs.
The magnitude of the marine plastic pollution problem has become clearer in recent years, bringing a sense of urgency. Littering has been identified as a major source of this plastic runoff. It is important to collect plastic waste while it is still on land as the task gains in complexity once the plastic spills into the ocean via rivers, etc.
Urban littering degrades quality of living from aesthetic and hygienic standpoints. Furthermore, there are studies that suggest that leaving urban waste unattended may lead to deterioration of public safety. It is important to frequently pick up urban litter, even in small quantities, to keep cities pleasant and safe.
Urban litter includes a great number of things that should have been recycled, such as cans, plastic bottles, plastic film, etc. By returning these materials to the recycling process and processing them appropriately, we can help achieve "sustainable production and consumption."
