Here's a tidbit of information I got from the 2007/2008 Chet The Cheetah Environmental Calendar that I received at the Color Brighton Green event I attended with my wife back in January:
"Did U Know: One mile= 5,280 feet. If people walk one mile along a highway, they would find about 1,320 pieces of trash. How many pieces of trash would they find per foot? What can they do about it? Pick it up!"
So, this Earth Day, go for a walk, breathe in that nice spring air, and bring a bag with you so you can pick up some trash along the way. Nothing like getting fit and helping keep your neighborhood clean at the same time! Who knows---maybe this will become a new routine for you?
