Plogging is a visible movement that connects individuals and communities, encouraging its participants to collect litter while raising awareness about the importance of environmental protection.
Forget about expensive sports equipment for a moment and exchange them for gloves and garbage bags, because we invite you, your spouse, children and friends, your coworkers, relatives, relatives of relatives, pets, etc.
– in other words, everyone to join us in this trendy, environmentally friendly hobby.

How to get involved?
Become a plogger by putting on gloves, grabbing trash bags in your pockets, and looking for trash around you and along your route, which you pick up in your trash bag. When the bag is full, you put it in a general trash can or sort it properly, if possible.

Nothing ignites a sense of community like a shared goal for a cleaner world. The power of plogging lies in its diversity and community.
