Beer Dude, thank you for helping us out. Those are some pretty scary numbers there. Colorado gave me my first taste of the mountains, a taste that I crave every day of my life. It is great to know that stuff is being done to help the environment.
On a smaller scale:
Yesterday, I went on a 22 mile bike ride along the Fox River.
Elgin, IL. has a nasty looking eyesore of a junk yard (right on the river), holding all kinds of un-used vehicles and thousands and thousands of 55 gallon drums, holding who-knows-what, among other things. When I rode by, the entire lot was cleared of the junk. I mean everything was gone, to my amazement. It looks like the city kicked the offender out and made them clean up the mess. Hopefully this area will be turned into more public parks on the river.
Anyone else have any major cleanup stories?
