Clean up Fukuoka with family and friends on May 27! The “Love Earth Clean Up” annual event sees volunteers gather and collect rubbish scattering the coast, rivers and mountains in Fukuoka. The event has been running since a 1992 conference held in Fukuoka, with the theme of “Global Environment & Regional Action”. The conference prompted activity not only in Kyushu, but in Hokkaido, Ishikawa and even Busan (South Korea). Since then, more than 10 million volunteers have participated in the event. Anyone can take part in the “regional environmental beautification” activities on Sunday, May 27- so gather your friends and family and show the city you care! The event will happen rain or shine, and you will be provided with garbage bags, but you must come prepared with your own work gloves, sneakers and sun protection.
