What is Plogging, Plalking, Pliking?
PLOGGING is a portmanteau (combining the sounds and meanings of two words) of the Swedish term ‘plocka upp’ which means to pick up, and the word jogging. It is an environmental and fitness movement where people around the world pick up litter as they jog. The idea of this sustainable initiative is simplicity itself: the participants, ‘ploggers’, take to the nature with rubbish bags to pick up the litter they come across while exercising.
Additionally to plogging, new initiatives were created, PLALKING (cleaning up while walking) and PLIKING (cleaning up while hiking).
