Happy Fall everybody! Today, we went on a walk around the North Creek Lake. We saw some trash inside of the water. The trash seemed to be kind of old, but overall, the lake seemed to be ok. The water level is high right now. The trash we found was made up of many plastic bottles and cans. Waste like this can be recycled, as plastic is a material that takes a long time to decompose. If it is left in nature for a long time, it can harm the environment because the wildlife in the area can eat it, choke on it, and die. So, when you see trash, pick it up because you might save a life!
