[00:00:00]I'm up in Nipissing Ontario where on the nine Wolf Bay resides and a good friend of mine Jerry invited me out to collect garbage within his group. He's part of the Masons.

[00:00:15]And so I lingered a little longer as everybody picked up the bigger chunks. I remained to clean up one of the most littered items on the planet.

[00:00:30]And as small as they are, they're very toxic.

[00:00:34]For every one of these thrown out of a window of a car contaminates six gallons of water.

[00:00:57]Unfortunately, there are far too many.

[00:01:02]It's like the comparison to ants on our planet. The ant population all combined outweighs every other species in total.

[00:01:13]If you're looking for something to do, grab your grabber and pick up these little butts because it's a fun interactive game.
