Sixteen Illinois State University students spent time during spring break removing 33,547 pounds of trash from McKellar Lake in Memphis, Tennessee, through Living Lands & Waters (LL&W).
Officials said the goal was to wrap 80,000 trees — a pace of approximately one tree per minute.
To combat the ongoing pollution issue, environmental cleanup nonprofits like Living Lands & Waters take to the water, collecting trash from river shorelines and dredging up waste from beneath the surface.
