Data-Driven Impact

In 2020, a report estimated that 49.6 billion pieces of litter lined US roadways and waterways, with 88% measuring 4 inches or less. With 3.3 million US residents in 2020, each person would only have to pick up 152 pieces of litter to eliminate all of it.

At the 2023 Yosemite FaceLift, 1,501 volunteers dedicated 12,151 hours across five days to remove a whopping 10,432 lbs of litter from Yosemite National Park. Astoundingly, this represents just 0.023% of the total hours spent by visitors at Yosemite that year. Imagine if just 1% of all visitors cleaned up litter while exploring the park—that's equivalent to 43 FaceLift events!

Moral of the story: every little bit counts! CleanTrek’s mission is to get as many people as possible to clean up litter, even if it’s just a few small pieces at a time. If we all act, we can make a huge impact.
