MDOT said “one piece of litter per person can transform our state” and encouraged Mississippians to join the Pick It Up Mississippi campaign.

The department said it is committed to a cleaner Mississippi and asked residents to contribute by removing litter from roadsides and public spaces.

MDOT said the effort emphasizes small, individual actions carried out “one piece at a time.”
