What is Plogging?Plogging is the action of jogging while picking up litter/trash. Plogging comes from the Swedish term "Plogga". Stockholm Sweden became the first city to host an organized “Plogga” in 2016. This event combined a jog (jogga in Swedish) with picking up litter (plocka up). Plogga is an association and popular movement where the activity itself is about picking up rubbish while out for a (light) jog.
