Plogging. Thanks to social media, this exercise trend beneficial for the environment and your body is sweeping the world. Peggy Brown of Brunswick has been heading out for over two years to gather trash during her workouts. Her daughters and a few friends have also joined in. “I bring a recyclable shopping bag with me, the kind that you use for groceries at Shaws or Hannaford and I wear gloves. When my bag is full I head back home and drop it off. Sometimes I fill the bag pretty quickly, so I head home, drop the bag off and head out again to get more of a walk in,” Brown said.
