PLOGGING FOR OUR PLANET

Plogging for our Planet

Plogging began in Sweden in 2016. It’s a combination of outdoor exercise while picking up litter. The origin of the word itself is derived from the Swedish language.

As a workout, it provides variation in body movements by adding bending, squatting and stretching to the main action of running, hiking, or walking.

Plogging spread to other countries in 2018, following increased concern about plastic pollution. An estimated 2,000,000 people plog daily in 100 countries and some plogging events have attracted over 3,000,000 participants. Source: Wikipedia

Next time you go for a jog or a walk, take a trash bag & gloves, invite a friend, take photos, and post your results.
