3. Have you ever seen trash in a river, the ocean, lakes, swamps, and more? If you have than I'm sure you know that it's not helping our environment. I've seen lots of trash and then in the water of elsewhere i see animals trying to swim either through, on top of, or underneath the trash. I take the trash out and I help the animal.
