Ashleigh Cummings Instagram – How YOU can help save the world (and build serious thigh muscle from all the squatting involved): YOU WILL NEED: – reusable dishwashing gloves OR an end destination with some water and soap – a waterproof bag you can wash out after OR a plastic bag you find on the street OR a biodegradable garbage bag OR just your hands STEP ONE: – pick up some rubbish (if you only have a limited amount of time, prioritise plastics, metals and glass or any other non-biodegradable materials) …There’s only one step. Even if you pick up 5 pieces of rubbish on your way to work each day, imagine how that would accumulate! I know it seems like a futile exercise sometimes, but every SINGLE piece of rubbish disposed of makes the world that tiny bit healthier! And maybe you’re not the one littering so it doesn’t feel like your responsibility… But this issue is far greater than the individual – it is everyone’s responsibility. As a race we have landed ourselves in this destruction and as a race we must find our way out of it. There are so many studies that claim we are environmentally beyond the tipping point and can’t come back. There are also countless ones that claim the opposite. Regardless, even if we can’t reverse our impact entirely, we can at least better the current situation! Besides, hope is only gone when you stop believing in it. 🌎🌍🌏 #thefutureofourworldisinYOURhands
