E.S.P.N. Everyone Stop Pollution Now

How It Started! On February 22, 2007 the 8th grade TAG Science class was presented by their teachers with an article that was seen in the local news paper. KALB –Keeping Athens Limestone Beautiful- was encouraging people to Adopt- a -spot in Athens City and Limestone County, hoping to clean up the surrounding area. This is where it all begin…...

Purpose We the students of Mrs. Nana Garner and Mr. Todd Walton TAG Science class chose to adopt-a-spot as our community service learning project. The purpose of our project is to encourage all citizens of our community to join together to help create a litter free environment.

How? In order to get this started we contacted Mrs. Hart from KALB. We requested a section of Town Creek that flows though the middle of the City of Athens. Our adopt-a-spot site was approved so, we were able to get started! Mrs. Hart supplied us with safety vests, gloves, trash bags, and trash collectors, it was just what we needed to accomplish our first task.

Our First Visit! On March 14, 2007 we made our first site visit. We put on our vests, carried all of our gear and walked from our school to our adopted site. We spent the next 3.5 hours picking up trash out of the creek and off of the creek bank. We picked up 18 trash bags of litter, one 55 gallon trash can, and one 5 gallon bucket.

What Will We Do With The Trash? To make use of our trash we decided that we would make sculptures out of the garbage that we found. We constructed a person, an elephant, and a trash toilet. The sculptures turned out great! In the future, we hope to get money from the recyclable material that we find and donate that money to a local charity.

2nd Visit On April 26, 2007 we went back to our site and picked up 5 more bags of trash. We have decided to visit our site on a regular basis in order to monitor and maintain our cleaner environment.

Future Plans! The project will not stop with us! Future plans include taking water samples, soil samples, plant population, animal population, as well as keeping the stream litter free.

CHALLENGE!!!! We leave a challenge to next years 8th grade science class to follow in our footsteps, to carry on our legacy of a litter free environment, and to MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN OUR COMMUNITY!
