Friday, September 20 is World Cleanup Day. With over 190 countries, we will give our planet a big clean-up on that day. Fun activities are organized in the Netherlands and of course in Amsterdam to clean up the neighborhood or street together. Will you join us again? You can request litter pickers and other cleaning materials from the municipality until September 10.
World Cleanup Day is a global initiative. In the Netherlands, it is organized by IVN Nature Education. You can organize a cleanup action with a group, participate alone, or join an existing initiative. Sign up via worldcleanupday.nl.
Borrowing Materials
You can use your own litter pickers or garbage bags. But if you don’t have them, you can borrow a litter picker and waste ring from us. Requests can be made until Wednesday, September 10 at 12:00 PM via our website. In the web form, you can indicate how many items you want to borrow, and where and when you want to pick them up and return them.
