Recently, the Coosa River Basin Initiative's Cleansweep project brought major changes within Rome's community. Rome, which is located in Georgia, is well known for its water activities such as boating,kayaking, and fishing. However, inhabitants noticed the amount of garbage in the rivers and decided to volunteer and help out with the Cleansweep.
As Rome News Tribune relates in the article: UCS senior Lindsay Hoyt was also surprised by the amount of trash they found. “It’s sad to see how it affects our rivers because in Rome our rivers are beautiful,” she said. “However, after picking up the large amounts of trash, it makes our rivers seem very unequipped and not taken care of. This small trip really did open my eyes to the long term effects of littering.”
