Trash Offset Edit Meaning

1.

Similar to carbon offset, trash offsetting is the act of voluntarily picking up and disposing of trash/litter from the street, in order that at some later stage one can drop one's own with a clear conscience.

If done responsibly the concept often eliminates the inconvenience of having to find an appropriate receptacle for items of waste, while also having a net gain for the environment.

"Hey man, you can't just leave that burger wrapper in the street!"

"Hell yeah I can, I picked up three cans today."

"Trash offsetting huh?"
