Sustainability has been in the news a lot lately and we wanted to create an app that makes it easier to report, map, and clean up litter in your neighborhood.

We're gonna spend the next 6 months mapping litter and its impact in our community, San Francisco.

This is a soft launch, but feedback is greatly appreciated. We put a lot of attention into trying to make the UI feel good and make the app as delightful as possible. Bugs sometimes get in the way of that :)

The sponsored cleanups are an interesting idea.

For the UK there's https://www.fixmystreet.com/ to report issue to your local council. I see 1 million reports. It has a different target audience and dynamic, no mobile app and no gamification (though there's a top 10 list of councils). The platform is open source.

Thanks for the feedback! Yes, fixmystreet.com is a great platform. I think for something like this an easy mobile experience is key, and we will be focusing on just litter for now.
Question: My post doesn't seem come up in the "show" tab? Can anyone verify?
