This is a volunteer opportunity for community members and university students, staff, and faculty to make a pledge to reduce or eliminate the use of one type of single-use plastic from their lives. We will be picking up trash on and around the UHCL campus, conducting an inventory on the trash collected, and providing information on ways to reduce or eliminate single-use plastics.
