When the snow melted away a few weeks ago, you got an opportunity to view the problems with small load dumping, animal carcass dumping, and even the fast-food packaging accumulated along the ditches and shoulders.
While this is not a problem exclusive to the Tract, nor the Grand River, This is where this particular story is taking place.
29-year-old Christian Giles, accompanied by his mother, took the opportunity to tackle the trash head-on on his day off. He had already filled four trash bags when I caught up to him on Newport road in Brant county.
He was very humble and wasn’t doing this for accolades or attention. Giles reports this isn’t the first time he has taken on this task, but also, it is something that he just decided to do.
In a world where people often say that they don’t have the time, It was refreshing to meet someone who made the time to clean our Mother Earth.
Nya:wen Christian
I am very pleased to know that someone has taken the initiative to head out there and clean up everyone else’s mess. That portion of highways is always a dumping ground for almost anything. Years ago, a local man made a small living on the recyclables he garnered from just that portion of his route. He too, cleaned up the area, doing his part, to keep Mother Earth in a more presentable view. Come people, if you use this roadway, hlp lkeep your mess in your vehicle until you get back home!!
