World Cleanup Day is one of the world's largest environmental awareness actions and is held regularly on the third Saturday of September every year. By advocating the action of "spending one day to clean up our planet", we call on more people to change their attitude of excessive consumption behavior to deal with the problem of out-of-control garbage on land, rivers and oceans, and ultimately through diverse activities and large-scale engagement to mitigate the impacts of the climate crisis.
A total of 95% of countries around the world participate in World Cleanup Day from 2018 to 2023.More than 91 million volunteers joined the activities, with A total of 530,000 tons of garbage and waste cleared.
As the general coordinating unit of World Cleanup Day in China since 2018, Pickup China in 2013 has mobilized more than 250,000 people and carried out 3,715 garbage cleaning and picking activities nationwide, picking up a total of 466 tons of garbage.
