Estonian beginnings
World Cleanup Day began in 2008 as an Estonian initiative, ''Teeme Ära'', growing dramatically since to become a worldwide happening involving millions of people. Around 300 staff in Tallinn will gather and coordinate information globally and provide support and advice for international teams. 30,000 are likely to partake on the ground in Estonia alone, it is reported.
