Members of the Church of God in Bogota, New Jersey, U.S., Collect Plastic Waste Along the Hackensack River

On November 30, around 50 members of the Church of God in Bogota, New Jersey, U.S., along with local residents, carried out the “Erase Plastic Footprint” campaign along the Hackensack River in Secaucus. As part of the “Global Hope Challenge,” the campaign was organized to protect marine ecosystems and promote carbon neutrality by collecting plastic waste flowing into rivers and oceans. Beginning at 9 a.m., participants spent about 2 hours collecting 900 kg of plastic waste, including plastic bottles and disposable cups, as well as 100 kg of general trash along the riverside.
