Well, after giving it some thought, i have finally decided to be an advocate of the minimization of littering in the city of Detroit . I chose this topic not because it is something that has been previously covered, but because I am concerned about the the community I live in. It wasn't until my mid high school years when I realized that this is something that I really cared about. One experience I specifically remember is of my friends and I walking from Little Caesar's eating pizza back to school when our lunch break was nearly over and one of my friends threw the pizza box on the ground. Of course i was angry about him littering, but what really made me furious was that we were closer than 20 feet from a garbage can. I went crazy! I remember yelling things that were probably a little unnecessary, but at the time, I felt he needed to hear everything I had to say. We were and still are friends, so I know he wouldn't get offended.

The media that I am going to use as a presentation of the importance of minimizing littering in Detroit is a 6 - slide PowerPoint.
