Help for outdoor workers

People like construction workers and street cleaners have to work outdoors even during the scorching summer. Therefore, it is our responsibility to help reduce their work burden. We could start that by generating less waste, both at home and our place of work. The less garbage we generate, the less burdensome street cleaners' work will be.
