Rome Clean and Green

This Memorial Day, we honor the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom.

As we gather for BBQs and community events, let’s also honor their legacy by keeping our parks, beaches, and neighborhoods beautiful. Pack it in, pack it out, and recycle responsibly!

Big news!

🎉 BIG NEWS: Our 2026 National Litter Study is here!

After months of research, we’re thrilled to release the most comprehensive data on litter in America—and the findings are incredibly encouraging.

Litter across U.S. roadways and waterways is down 34% since 2020. Every American’s share dropped from 152 pieces to 96. This is proof that when communities work together, real change happens.

But our work is far from done—35 billion pieces of litter remain. The study shows us exactly where we need to focus next, and with America’s 250th birthday approaching, there has never been a better time to finish what we started.

📊 Dive into the data and discover what’s working across the country.
