The quote goes that this world doesn't belong to us, but that we borrow it for our children. I think often of this quote, what we leave behind when we are gone, and what we all can do to leave this place better than when we found it. This has been a hard year, and looking forward, we owe it to the future to branch out of our comfort zones to preserve the earth for those who follow. I present to you a minipresentation of people,businesses, inventions,and organizations that are doing just that!

This neat invention is Mr. TrashWheel! The first one was created in 2014. John Kellett decided to build the machine after being unable to clean pollution in the town's waterway for over two decades.The machine uses the river's current and occasionally back up solar panels to power the use of its conveyer belt for funneling in trash.At the moment there are three trashweels in the trashwheel family: Mr.TrashWheel, Professor TrashWheel, and Captain TrashWheel and in total they have collected almost 1400 Tons of trash! The trashwheel family can be found in Baltimore, Maryland, but they are looking to expand to other major cities as well. If you want a Mr. TrashWheel near you, you can go to the mrtrashwheel.com and adopt one.The founder quotes that though this helps pollution of our world's waterways on the surface, nothing can replace having a consciouos mindset of how we care for our planet through choosing to recycle, and be responsible in disposing our trash.
