How To Use This Site

WELCOME!  Thanks for stopping by.  We recommend that you begin your journey by checking our News Reel. There are thousands of news stories in our vault from daily news-tracking for a full decade. There's overwhelming evidence that littering is a serious problem worldwide. It's all encapsulated in 450 weekly editions of "This Week in Litterland", a content-rich news digests that wound down in February 2022 after 10 years of publishing. Still, those wonderful one-page newsletters are a valuable resource for anyone doing a project or research on litter. Our Media section is packed with information as we aim to give the subject some limelight, since so little is given to it.

Astound yourself by surveying the amount of money that’s going into stopping a socially unacceptable habit that should be the easiest thing in the world to cure. Not littering is the most simple and enduring green action a person can take for the good of the environment.

Venture to our Resources section under the Prevent Litter tab.  There you will find a veritable encyclopedia of information on litter prevention. 

This website is all about learning and sharing the facts about litter to help people break the habit.  Go to Marine Litter to understand the ruinous consequences of littering oceans and waterways.

You’ll notice this website has a Toronto page.  That’s because the Litter Prevention Program was founded in Toronto, Canada.  We would dearly like to see a littering rate reduction in our own backyard.  (Our Province of Ontario is light years behind, hasn’t reviewed littering since 1977.) 

Shlog is the name of Sheila's blog.  Opinions about littering, both rants and raves, get aired here.  Contribute your comments, questions or ideas for topics you'd like to see raised in this space. The website gives you tips, tools, commentary, videos and feature stories, plus a section on Tobacco Litter for all our smoking friends out there, all the news you need to know to help anybody quit littering.  We ask that you spread the word about www.litterpreventionprogram.com and talk about the news you find here.
​
Share our link and let your contacts know that you think the work we are doing is important. You can help reduce littering by having the Litter Prevention Program present a lively and inspiring talk to your group or club. You can pledge not to be a litterer. Challenge someone else to give up littering.  Also refer Sheila's dynamically different and incredibly interesting speaking presentation to conference, meeting and convention planners.

Thanks!
