Mississippi urges residents to keep outdoor spaces clean

The Office of First Lady Elee Reeves and the Mississippi Litter Prevention Task Force are encouraging residents to help keep the state’s parks and waterways free of litter. Officials say trash can harm wildlife, damage habitats, and reduce the outdoor experiences that make Mississippi unique.

They urge residents to pick up at least one piece of litter to contribute to the effort. The campaign emphasizes individual responsibility in preserving the state’s natural beauty.

Organizers encourage the public to participate in the #PickItUpMississippi, #OnePieceAtATime, and #MDWFP initiatives to promote cleaner outdoor spaces across the state.
