PASADENA, Calif. -- As we celebrate Earth Month this April, a young climate activist is helping to raise awareness by making a positive impact on the environment, taking on a monumental task.
Edgar McGregor, whose singular focus is to clean up Eaton Canyon in Pasadena, has been cleaning up trash others have left behind, filling up at least two buckets at a time, for nearly 1,000 days. "I really enjoy the weather and climate. I also really enjoy nature. I like coming out to the parks every day and seeing how everything changes to the seasons," McGregor said."And it was through doing that that I realized, 'you know, there's some trash out here, and I don't know if anyone's actually cleaning this stuff up,' so it never really occurred to me that I was underestimating the amount of trash in this park.
"I was out here for at least an hour every single day cleaning up my park and I can finally say this place is clean," McGregor said in a video he posted to social media celebrating the occasion.
