My Actifit Report Card: August 21 2019
Protect the planet and random shots walking to work
For this evenings acifit post I share some photos taken with my iPhone, The first couple of shots are of a new temporary piece by the visitors entrance tot he UN buildings and the rest are shots of things I saw while walking to work this morning, which was a short walk, with the days getting shorter and it being overcast today I didn't go for my normal longer stroll before work plus because I had early meetings and didn't have time as well for a walk or any consequence, so my step total today will be a bit lower than it has been recently, which is a good thing as it is very humid and air quality isnt the best today so for a change I was fairly sensible.
This is being hosted by Greenpeace and a couple of other organizations to highlight the risk to animals in the ocean from all the trash we are polluting the oceans with and I thought it was worth sharing

Now I warn you the interest even in this post may drop from here just some random but common sights while walking the streets of NYC
Starting with this two boxes used but the US Postal Service one is a storage box and the other a relay box, there are many of these spread around the city.

Staying with boxes again these are spread all over the city as well boxes for the various fee papers and magazines that one can grab if they want, I do say they are all over the city but with people glued to their mobile devices and reading online I am ot sure how much use they get I cant remember the last time I saw someone actually taking one of these papers from these boxes.

I guess as I was taking photos this morning walking to the office i was in a box mode LOL as this next is kind of a box shape, A small ATM outside a little Deli which wasn’t open as yet, I am not sure why they are needed on just about every block or maybe two blocks there are banks with ATMS but i have notice a lot of delis with these little ATMS

And for my last shot Another sort of box, this one is a parking terminal where you can pay for raking in the area near it, I have never driven and parked in NYC so I am not sure how much it costs to park in these, but i know parking inthe underground car parks here is not cheap so I imagine this isnt cheap either

Great photography as always especially of the whale which is so sad to see what we humans have done to our beautiful nature and to all that live in it, including us.
Thanks kindly and yes that exhibit makes a powerful statement one that needs to be seen and heard by many it’s a shame what we humans are doing to our planet 🌎

Loved all the boxes. Sad about all the ocean pollution, but I think it’s a very effective display!
Thanks and yes that display is sad but makes a powerful point
We had a Christmas light display like that at the beach this past year. They have this official Christmas light competition which has to use a lifeguard chair somewhere in the display. One group had the whole display made from trash picked up on the beach.
That sounds such a fun completion and a very cool entry do you have any photos of it?
I do! Perhaps I should do a Christmas in August post. LOL!
And why not sounds like a good idea to me :)
I think I will do it! Thanks for the inspiration! It will get folks ready to travel here for the Christmas season!
Cool looking forward to seeing it and feel free to tag me

Totally agree.
I often wonder how many people buy or take those papers out of the boxes anymore. With the Internet being so readily available it doesn't seem like print would get as much traction as it used to.
I have bene wondering that for a while only when I was waiting for a bus the other day that took about 10 minutes to come did I watch one and hardly anyone even seemed to notice the boxes and papers there and not one person took one
