The city's ongoing
grime-fighting efforts also involve annual
events, such as Earth Day when residents
volunteer to clean up Oakland. These activities
help clean up the city and encourage longer-term
commitments. On Earth
Day a week ago, Oakland residents picked up
litter, removed graffiti and planted trees in
neighborhoods throughout Oakland.
Another event Creek to
Bay Day, during which residents help clean
up waterways takes place September 19.
