Estonia Clean-up Project 2008: Wild Garbage Dumps Removed in a Day!

This story is an amazing inspiration. In the small Baltic country Estonia, a group of activists decided they will do something about the wild garbage dumps which existed all around the country. Estonia has great nature reserves but people have dumped their garbage for years, and they did this exactly deep in the woods where there is less control over such kind of behaviour. This group of people came with the idea to clean up the country in just ONE DAY, which they did eventually, on 3 May 2008!! You simlpy must see this 5 min clip about the whole project - trust me, you will be amazed:



Now, a similar initiative has started in Slovenia, my home country. I have received an email just today inviting us to such an action throughout Slovenia in Spring 2010, preparations are already in place. If you are living in Slovenia, be sure to get involved. You will hear more about this project on the eco-friendly-lifestyle blog in the future.
