Choose ONE simple action to help make Charles County a cleaner, greener place:

🔋 Recycle old batteries.

🌿 Start a compost bin or compost bucket.

🌳 Plant a native tree, shrub, or pollinator-friendly flower.

🚮 Pick up litter during a walk in your neighborhood or local park.

 📸 Share Your Green Challenge!

 Once you've completed your challenge, snap a photo and tag us on our Charles County Environmental Resources Facebook page or Instagram page.

We'd love to celebrate your efforts! Your photo could even be featured on our Facebook page or in a future edition of the Charles County Environmental Insider as we spotlight residents making a difference in our community.
