Keeping Akwesasne Clean

In our every deliberation, we must consider the impact of our decisions on the next seven generations. -Great Law

A huge impact that we are leaving our next generations is Mother Earth. Are we leaving them with a healthy place to live?

We can do better and be better!

As we walked the roads of Racquette Point picking up beer bottles and soda bottles and just plain ol' garbage, my son Tehawennahkhwa said in full frustration, "Why do people have to throw garbage out their window?"

We simply told him that some people don't know better.

Something to consider, carry a small garbage bag or cardboard box in your car to toss your garbage into. Or at each stop along the way, empty your vehicle of its collected garbage in the provided garbage bins conveniently located at the entrance of literally every building you walk into.

Being proactive will help everyone, including our next generations on the way.
