On
Earth Day 2012, the Green Club at Florida’s Polk State College went beyond the
typical litter cleanup efforts. In
collaboration with local sheriffs, Winter Haven city officials, homeowners and
community partners, the club launched a yearlong project that will target
invasive plant and tree species. This ‘environmental litter’ includes foreign
species that kill off native plant life, such as Brazilian pepper, camphor
trees and melaleuca trees. “We want to teach people that these are a
'no-no' and not to plant them," said Green Club president Janis Davis.
"Once we get them all out, there will be more room for the natives, like
the oak trees, to grow, and the others will flourish as well.”
