September 16, 2020 -- Mayor Sylvester Turner joined several city council members and community and neighborhood groups to announce an anti-litter campaign to encourage Houstonians to properly dispose of face masks, gloves, sanitizer wipes, and other trash.
"Don't Let Houston Go to Waste" and "Litter is Trashy" are two of the slogans that will remind people to keep Houston clean by throwing all used items in trash cans and dumpsters. The signs also encourage everyone to do the 'PPE123." http://www.houstontx.gov/mayor/press/2020/citywide-anti-litter-campaign.html |
