#2minutestreetclean

Thanks to Paul B from Blessington Tidy Towns, who was instrumental with this micro project, several businesses have litter packs now, including Hi Vis, Gloves, bags, and pickers and should any one wish to do a quick litter pick in the area all they need to is call into the businesses participating and complete the job. Some of the supporting businesses are offering free coffees / hot chocolates and haircuts while the launch period is on. Keep an eye around Blessington for the posters, in businesses supporting this project.

Huge thanks to Blessington Barbers, Harvest Fare Health Shop, Wonkas Sweet Shop, Moody Rooster Cafe and Blessington Tourist Office.

Thank you very much to Pat and Liam from Wicklow County Council and Emlyn in An Taisce in conjunction with Adrian in Clean Coasts for helping us bring our #2minutestreetclean board project to fruition. We are all delighted to bring this great asset to the community, and any walkers on the ring road can now pop into Wicklow County Council Offices and borrow a litter picker and bag to complete a #2minutestreetclean

How Does A #2minutestreetclean Help the Environment Locally

  • Reduces Litter: The primary goal is to significantly reduce litter and its harmful effects:
    • Prevents litter from entering waterways and oceans
    • Protects wildlife from injury or ingestion of plastics/trash
    • Creates cleaner, more aesthetically pleasing neighborhoods
  • Community involvement: Lowers the barrier to entry for litter cleanup. Anyone walking by can easily grab supplies and take positive action. This promotes a sense of collective responsibility for the local environment.
  • Awareness and behavior change: The boards raise awareness about the litter issue. They encourage people to think twice about littering and may inspire longer-term involvement in environmental initiatives.
  • Positive Reinforcement: Seeing immediate results from a small action can be very rewarding, building positive associations with environmental care.
