If there is one simple and concrete action to take in favor of waterways in spring, it is cleaning the banks. And yes: melting ice often leaves waste appearing, a real visual pollution, as much as for bodies of water!\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although everyone has the opportunity to carry out cleaning chores independently, several organizations and citizen groups organize them in order to capitalize on the strength of numbers. Here are six clean-up activities near Montreal to participate in this spring, in a park near you.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
