With Serve Selma and many other groups going towards a cleaner city, it is very inspiring to see what can be done when not accepting that things are just simply the way they are.

With spots of downtown and other major roads in the city piling up with garbage, Judge Bob Armstrong, Juvenile Probate Judge Mike Irwin and others reached the point where the Children’s Policy could be part of the action of cleaning up.

While it does not fully eradicate the problem, it does make a dent in it.

It is going to take a community effort to clean up this city and we should all follow the example that all the groups that participate in clean up events.

The clean up efforts give hope as well.

“When you see trash on the ground what I say in my court all the time is that everyone else thinks it doesn’t matter,” said Armstrong. When you see someone doing the opposite it creates hope. Hope is a catalyst and it makes other people want to do differently too.”
