English: My sister and I have loved nature from a young age. When we were younger we'd often go on hikes to collect rocks to study and compare our results. As We got older we noticed more and more trash in our local environment. Instead of collecting rocks we started to pocket trash we'd find to throw away. Now that we are in high school we don't have as much time to rock hunt as our younger counterparts but we still make sure to do our parts no mater how cold the creek may be. My sister put on my old hazmat suit as protection against the frigid water and I grabbed my camera to embark on a nature inspired journey to our local creek. Upon arrival we picked up some trash and found some cool rocks along the way. I hope that this creek can stay as pitiful as it is now to inspire future scientists for many generations to come.
