Justin Imamura is a San Jose native and professional drummer who got tired of seeing his hometown fill up with trash, so he did something about it. Borrowing the energy and DIY attitude he knew from the punk rock scene, he formed a new group to clean up...

"We are the voices, the hands and feet of mother nature and we're just trying to clean up as much as we possibly can," Imamura said.

"Today, what we're doing is we're cleaning up the aftermath of the crazy storms we just had here in San Jose and the Bay Area," Imamura said. "On the overpass here, I just lower a magnet and stell hook down and kinda just go fishing for metal and right here I have an old can of bug spray. This is really bad to have in the water too," said Tj Lauters."One little piece times a million people, that's a lot of pieces of trash. So, if we all just clean up one piece at a time, we can make a massive, massive difference," Imamura said.
