Charneca da Caparica is full of garbage!

Garbage is one of the biggest environmental problems worldwide and it's also one of the biggest problems in our region.

Whenever I go for a walk around my school or in Charneca, I find rubbish of all kinds in places that should be clean:
– on the floor next to the containers,
– Masks flying everywhere,
– Waste placed in the wrong containers
– Garbage in parks and pine forests
– Plastics in the trees,…

And this endless list could go on and on.
Every little piece of plastic left on the streets can greatly influence our planet. However, we walk through the streets, see the garbage on the ground and don’t do anything about it.

Why does this happen?  Doesn’t it bother you?
