Every year we meet students who work hard to combat littering on the local level, and it is especially heartening that this year's scholarship is funded by a family of litter prevention advocates. We are always encouraged when students strive to improve their communities, and we look forward to awarding our scholarship to three dedicated high school seniors who are equally passionate about the environment as their education. |
Though recent research indicates roadside litter has dropped by a third, we've also discovered that more than half of Texans admit they litter, and that's just not acceptable. |
