Last year at the annual Keep Cincinnati Beautiful clean up day, over 800 volunteers armed themselves with gloves, shovels and trash bags and fanned out across 40 separate locations with one goal: pick up the trash. At the end of the day, that group of dedicated residents managed to collect over six tons of garbage by 7 illegal dumpsites, 15 parks and many other public places. There was on intrepid group who kept a running tally of the cigarette butts they picked up: 1,000. As the cleanup crews made their way through the neighborhoods picking up trash they were followed by the planting crews who dug in and placed over 12,000 daffodil bulbs throughout the city.
This year, Keep Cincinnati Beautiful is at it again pulling together resourses to hand out to neighborhood groups to help them with their own cleanup projects. Perhaps being surrounding by all these good cleanup efforts offers you a chance at a little introspective thought: Could your home stand for a “keep beautiful” type of event? If so, then you can enlist your own army of helpers. And by army we mean a Junk King Cincinnati crew.

There is good news and bad news coming out of the Environmental Protection Agency this week. The bad news is that there is a site in southwest Ohio deemed to be among the most-contaminated places in the country. The good news is that the EPA has included this site on their Superfund Cleanup list. This means focus will now be drawn to this area to help rid the soil, water and air of any harmful toxins that might have built up over the ensuing years. This is welcome news to any residents who were living in the shadow of that site.
Junk King Cincinnati has had a great recycling week so far. On Monday we hauled a couple of tons of coal out of an older home that used to have coal burning furnace. We brought it back to our warehouse and worked on finding a place for it. We received a call from a gentleman that volunteers for the Christian Appalachian Project. He donates time and materials to help people in Eastern Kentucky. He came and took 3/4 of the coal that we hauled and loaded it into his pickup truck to take it to a poor family in eastern Kentucky that has a coal burning fireplace and stove. He even told me the name of the family that would probably get the coal.
