If anyone is looking for trash to pick up, try the Lakefront!! I picked up a full bag in a half hour.

Have you noticed a shift in your community as more messaging about reusable straws becomes mainstream? Cite some examples.

How difficult was this challenge for you? What made it easy or difficult?
