In new Dr. Seuss book, Mr. Trash Wheel meets The Lorax
Mr. Trash Wheel, the great, big, googly-eyed trash-eating machine that lives in the Inner Harbor, is featured in the newest book in “The Lorax” series. The children’s book, “Green Machines and Other Amazing Eco-Inventions” was written by Michelle Meadows and illustrated by Aristides Ruiz as part of Dr. Seuss’ Lorax book series. The Lorax, of course, is Dr. Seuss’ beloved icon of environmentalism who famously speaks for the trees and encourages good environmental stewardship.
Baltimore’s trash wheels gobbled up over a million pounds of litter and debris last year
Baltimore’s beloved Mr. Trash Wheel and its family reached a major milestone last year: the collection of over 1 million pounds of litter and debris from the city’s waterways. The Waterfront Partnership of Baltimore credits the historic milestone to a second consecutive year of operating four wheels, as well as an increase in winter rainfall helping aid collection.
Waterfront Partnership of Baltimore Inc. is a non-profit organization dedicated to enhancing and promoting the waterfront district, parks, and public spaces. We create welcoming programs, events, and recreational experiences while working toward a healthy harbor. We are committed to fostering connections among diverse communities to ensure equitable access to our blue and green space
