Currently, in many cities around the world, protestors fill the streets with banners and posters as night falls. And although they are advocating for their own beliefs, sometimes a mess is left behind: walls covered in graffiti, trash strewn across the road, crushed bottles and broken windows scattering pavement. Despite the amount of chaos in the world today, statistics show that in some cities, more people spend their personal time cleaning the streets during the day than protesting on them at night. According to CNN, after a night of protests in downtown Houston, a truck driver dedicated the next morning to driving up and down and washing away graffiti.
