A new hashtag has gone off on social media. But instead of “challenging” people to show off their 10 year transformations, it’s setting out the challenge of cleaning up our cities.
Through “before and after” photos, people are showing off their hard work and the numerous bags of rubbish they picked up.
Already garnering tens of thousands of participants online, #trashtag is encouraging people to get their hands dirty and make a difference.
