The incredible “#trashtag challenge” has gone viral, encouraging people to clean up littered areas of their local communities.
The idea has been around for several years with one company promoting a cleaner environment; but the challenge became more popular after a social media post told individuals to "make the world a better place."
Hundreds of people shared photos of themselves litter-picking in trash-strewn parks and streets, scroll down to see some of the images.

Usually I’m against doing good deeds just to post it online but in the case of #trashtag i am 100% for it, if that’s what it takes.
