It's officially February and as Valentines Day approaches love is in the air... and litter is on the ground.

Residents are being encouraged to turn up to a special clean-up event later this month and perhaps meet a new special someone at the same time.

Taupō District Council environmental ranger Shannon Hanson tells Wallace about the event.
