Trashmaniac is an ongoing advocacy bike ride crossing countries that contribute the most carbon emissions and consume the most plastic-based products. We started in 2012 along the long highways and small towns of the United States and in 2014 we continued in the mountains of Alaska and hills of Canada – talking, tracking and recording trash.
