On August 26, a few friends of mine went and volunteered for Community Commitment as a scholars event. This is when thousands of OSU students go around the Columbus Community and volunteer. My group helped pick up trash in the residential areas off of High Street. It was eye opening to realize how much trash was left outside in the streets, especially when many of those items could have been recycled. Not that I wasn’t aware before but this experience really helped put litter on a larger scale into perspective for me and how it can affect our local environment.
