Meeting heaps new friends at the People planet Pint event in Brisbane. And I picked up some rubbish along the way to the event! Doing some good for our world can be fun and mentally rewarding.

Here at the planet, people pint evening with Keerthi! And I picked some rubbish along the way.

The council lawn mowers got to the rubbish before I did sadly. Mowing over rubbish just makes things worse. 😢

Did another of my semi-regular clean-ups near the 7-eleven, KFC and Starbucks. I had been feeling a bit down after scrolling some analysis of movies I’m fond of about corporations and modern life, Idiocracy, Fight Club, Office Space and Falling down. But we don’t have to blow up buildings or fight with violence. As I was picking up some of the over 250 pieces of branded corporate detritus, a lady in a car stopped and said ‘thank you’. Made my day 😊

I picked up rubbish from the floor

I’m attending the 3rd annual Australian Biosecurity Symposium on the Gold Coast. Seeing some familiar faces from 2 years ago, and making new connections and learning as always.

Seoul, Busan and many other parts of the country have been breaking records for the longest streak of consecutive tropical nights, with Seoul having 28 such nights as of Sunday, according to the Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA). As the intense heat is forecast to persist for the time being, the regions are expected to continue setting new records every day. A tropical night refers to overnight temperatures remaining at or above 25 degrees from 6:01 p.m. to 9 a.m. the following day. - The Korea Times

I visited the Biobasin after the rain, lots of rubbish gets washed here via the storm water drains. Over 100 pieces picked up.

We picked up quite a bit of trash in a big bag we also found washed up on the beach!

So much rubbish in the drain next to Warrigal road. I concentrated on removing as much plastic as I could

This morning, I used a refillable bottle instead of a single-use cup for my coffee. It's a new type of food container I have invented to replace single-use plastics. I didn't waste any single-use cup today. I shared that to my LinkedIn profile and got 262 views so far. More on https://koor.life

On my way to school I noticed there was so much rubbish left on the side of the road from students and locals. I tried to pick up as much as I could while also making it on time for school.
