SUMMARY:EDUCATIONAL GREEN ROOFS CONFERENCE
DESCRIPTION:Opening Remarks by Manhattan Borough President Gale Brewer \nClosing Remarks by Council Member Corey Johnson \nGreen roofs can be used as outdoor classrooms all year round to study important topics such as weather patterns\, the water cycle\, climate change\, air and water quality\, stormwater management\, sustainable agriculture and biodiversity; they can also be great spaces for stretching\, nature study\, journaling\, and quiet reading. Studies have shown that the psychological benefits of green spaces\, like green roofs\, are substantial – they reduce stress\, boost attention\, and improve brain function. In addition\, green roofs have practical benefits. They can reduce carbon emissions and energy costs while reducing stormwater runoff and heat island effect; they also provide important habitat for local and migratory wildlife. \nIf your school has an underutilized roof space\, and you’ve been thinking about installing a green roof but weren’t sure where to turn for advice\, this conference is for you! Join other like-minded educators\, parents\, administrators and PS 41\, elected officials\, the National Wildlife Federation\, the NYC Department of Education’s Office of Sustainability\, the New York City Department of Environmental Protection\, and educational green roof pioneers\, for an Educational Green Roofs Conference. You’ll learn about the many benefits of educational green roofs\, what steps are required to launch a green roof project in your school\, how to fundraise for your green roof project\, construction and maintenance\, and how to integrate the green roof into your curriculum. A networking session will follow the conference and light refreshments will be served.  Space is limited. Please RSVP by October 31\, 2017 \nPlease Note: No walk-in registrations will be accepted \nFAQs \nWhat are my transportation/parking options for getting to and from the event? \n#1 Subway (Red Line) to 14th Street in Manhattan (use 12th Street exit) \nCan non U.S. citizens attend this conference? \nThis conference is for New York City teachers\, administrators\, PTA members\, and interested parties. We are not able to accommodate or grant Visas or other documents to foreign nationals. \nHow can I contact the organizer with any questions? \nvsando@ps41.org or fanoe@nwf.org

SUMMARY:Sandy5
DESCRIPTION:Communities across the city will remember\, resist\, and rise together. \nFive years ago\, Superstorm Sandy took lives\, destroyed homes\, and flooded subways. Like in Florida\, Texas\, Puerto Rico and the Caribbean\, the people hit hardest by Sandy were the poor\, people of color\, immigrants\, and our already most vulnerable communities. \nNew York’s elected officials must protect us from the impacts of climate change and lead a just transition to a renewable energy economy. We cannot wait any longer. On October 28th\, we will assemble and march over the Brooklyn Bridge\, and then rally at the Alfred E. Smith Houses in Manhattan. \nOn October 28th\, let’s march to demand a better future.
