SUMMARY:Riverkeeper Day of Service
DESCRIPTION:In just four years\, the annual Riverkeeper Sweep has grown from 30 clean-up and stewardship sites in 2012 to 100 — and possibly more — this year.\nAs more people become engaged in restoring the Hudson River and its tributaries\, the Sweep — to be held on Saturday\, May 9 — will make a visible impact in communities from Red Hook in South Brooklyn to Troy in the Capital District. Registration is open at www.riverkeeper.org/sweep. Volunteers will be provided with gloves and trash bags.\nIn the first three years of the Sweep\, volunteers removed more than 75 tons of trash from our shorelines\, planted or maintained hundreds of shoreline trees\, and performed other service projects to improve public access to the Hudson River and its tributaries.\nDana Gulley\, Riverkeeper’s Manager of Strategic Partnerships\, Outreach and Volunteer Programs\, said: “Sweep volunteers remove items big and small\, from tiny pieces of broken down Styrofoam to discarded tires and plastic lawn furniture. Removing these items from our shoreline and waterways not only protects wildlife and the ecology of our rivers and streams\, but also works to reduce future dumping and littering.”\nThe Sweep is powered by more than 100 partnerships including schools\, scout troops\, businesses and community groups. Some 150 local Sweep leaders help drive volunteerism. Examples of new sites and partnerships include:\nThe New York State Department of Environmental Conservation Hudson River Estuary Program’s “Trees for Tribs” initiative\, which focuses on tree-planting to improve water quality and habitat. This brings the Sweep further north and deeper into the watershed with two tree planting projects and six tree-maintenance projects along several Hudson tributaries.\nIn Brooklyn\, Riverkeeper has several new Sweep sites this year\, including the East River State Park\, Newtown Creek and the Thomas Greene Playground on the Gowanus Canal. (The waters around New York City\, including the East and Harlem Rivers\, the Newtown Creek and Gowanus Canal\, are part of the Hudson River Estuary.)\nIn Rockland County\, Riverkeeper continues its partnership with Keep Rockland Beautiful and will add Emeline Park and Bowline Park to the county’s Sweep sites. Rockland sites are also being sponsored by the newly-formed Rockland Water Task Force this year.\nIn 2015\, Riverkeeper has partnered with several land conservancies\, including the Greene Land Trust\, Columbia Land Conservancy\, the Westchester Land Trust and the Rensselaer Land Trust.\n“The Riverkeeper Sweep is a wonderful opportunity to partner with other organizations that are about protecting our watershed and waterways\,” said Sonia Cairo\, Keep Rockland Beautiful’s Executive Director. “We are pleased to have five sites in Rockland this year where volunteers can participate in the clean-up. The Sweep also helps draw attention to the important link between our storm drains and our waterways.”\nAt least eleven local breweries have signed on as partners this year\, offering a post-event beverage to volunteers.\nThe Sweep is the signature New York event in the Waterkeeper Alliance SPLASH Series\, presented by Toyota and designed to connect people to their waterways. Other sponsors include the Insurance Industry Charitable Foundation\, Rocket Fuel\, Ironshore\, EILEEN FISHER\, Paragon Sports\, Sprout Watches\, VOS Selections\, JSA Financial\, Orvis\, the Johnny Mac Tennis Project\, Pleasant Valley Stone and these individuals: Joe and Daryl Boren\, and John and Gillett Gilbert. \nPhoto courtesy of: www.riverkeeper.org/sweep

SUMMARY:Eighth Annual New York City Wildflower Week
DESCRIPTION:NYC Wildflower Week presents a full week of free events to showcase the 53\,000 acres of open space and 778 native plants in NYC’s 5 boroughs. The goal of the week is simple: to encourage New Yorkers to get to know the nature in their own back yard and to inspire them to protect this natural heritage for future generations. In 2012 the NYC Wildflower Week expanded on this model by launching National Urban Biodiversity Week with partners in cities across the country. Check out Nature Block Party to learn more!\n \nNYC Wildflower Week is hosted by the Torrey Botanical Society as a way to re-engage New Yorkers with the natural heritage so beloved by our namesake\, John Torrey. Started in the 1871 as a way for his students and colleagues to share their knowledge and love of the local flora\, this tradition continues today. \nThe Society promotes the exploration and study of plant life\, with particular focus on the flora of the New York City metro area. Today\, it fosters and supports floristic curiosity through indoor meetings (lectures)\, outdoor meetings (plant walks)\, fellowships that support graduate study\, and publications. For more information: www.torreybotanical.org \nFar from being an anachronism\, botanical societies are rich repositories of knowledge. Please help us preserve our sense of place through the study of botany by joining TBS today. Keep the oldest botanical society in the United States alive and active in the study and conservation of plants. \n\n\n\n\nMost NY CWW events are free and open to the public. Space is limited for certain events\, so advance registration is encouraged. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNature Walks\, BK:\nSunrise Listening TourNature Walks\, BX:\nVan Cortlandt Bird WalkGarden Tours\, MN:\nNative Plant Habitat at LCBH Community Garden\nNature Walks\, MN:\nBirding Basics for FamiliesFun for Kids\, SI:\nAmong the Wildflowers\nNature Walks\, BK:\nBlooms and Bugs\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLectures & Learning\, LI:\nThe Flatbush Gardener \n\nGarden Tours\, BX:\nNative Plant Garden Tour at NYBGGarden Tours\, BX:\nThain Family Forest Tour at NYBGGarden Tours\, BX:\nAzalea Garden Tour at NYBG \nGarden Tours\, BK:\nTalk With the Wildflowers of Brooklyn Bridge Park\n\nGarden Tours\, SI:\nGreenbelt Native Plant Center\nGarden Tours\, BK:\nNative Flora Garden at BBG\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGarden Tours\, BK:\nPlace\, Purpose\, Plants: Urban Gardening with Native PlantsGarden Tours\, MN:\nNative Woodland Garden at NYU\nNature Walks\, BX:\nWildflower Walk of Van Cortlandt ParkFun for Kids\, MN:\nInteractive Nature FairGet Hands Dirty\, BX:\nNative Plant Share & Workshop  \nGet Hands Dirty\, BK:\nClean & Green: Wildflower Corridor Installation\, and Plant and Compost Sale \nFun for Kids\, MN:\nExperience Life as a Plant\nFun for Kids\, BK:\nFamily Flora WalkNature Walks\, QU:\nBird & Nature Walk at QBGNature Walks\, MN:\nSpring Fungi Talk & Walk

SUMMARY:Old Croton Aqueduct Bike Tour
DESCRIPTION:In 1842\, the Croton Aqueduct began delivering water to New York City from the Croton River 41 miles to the north. In the decades leading up to the aqueduct’s completion the city had suffered epidemics of Asiatic Cholera and Yellow Fever because water came from increasingly polluted wells. Fire also devastated the city several times\, including the Great Fire of 1835 in which 500 buildings burned down because there was no reliable water source to extinguish the fires. The aqueduct was an incredible work of engineering never before accomplished on such a large scale. It delivered 40 million gallons of clean reliable drinking water daily to a rapidly growing city.\n \nJoin NYC native Matt Malina and Matheson Westlake as we bike the route of the Old Croton Aqueduct from the NYPL to the Highbridge. \nPlease register here: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/old-croton-aqueduct-bike-tour-tickets-16166176469?utm_campaign=new_event_email&utm_medium=email&utm_source=eb_email&utm_term=eventurl_text \nEmail mm1566@nyu.edu if you are a student or educator to receive the discount code. \nThe tour will take about 3.5 hours and start at the 42nd Street Library and finish at the Highbridge on 173rd Street. \n\nRain date: Sunday\, May 10\n\nPhoto: Section of Old Croton Aqueduct exposed during excavation on W. 105th Street (1928).

SUMMARY:Brooklyn Eco Bike Tour
DESCRIPTION:Photo: Jamaica Bay wetland restoration – US Army Corps of Engineers \n \nBK Eco Bike Tour  \nSaturday May 16 at 11 a.m. \nEast New York \nLearn about Brooklyn’s environmental challenges and successes on NYC H20’s leisurely and informative bike ride along Jamaica Bay. \nClimate change\, rising sea levels and intense storms like Hurricane Sandy have persuaded city planners of the value of marshland in storm water management.  A century ago the neighborhoods Sandy flooded were wetlands. \nAll 14 of NYC’s sewage plants are built in this vulnerable floodplain along the water’s edge. Their effluent flows into our bay’s and rivers\, so maintaining high quality treatment is vital to protect beach goers as well as wildlife. \nGovernment agencies like DEP and the Army Corps of Engineers have partnered with local NGO’s like Jamaica Bay Eco Watchers and NRDC to design a plan to restore Jamaica Bay’s ecosystem. Initiatives include restoring wetlands\, mitigating combined sewer overflows (CSO) with green and grey infrastructure and upgrading sewage plants. \nOn this ride we will; \n\nBike along the Jamaica Bay Greenway\, visit restored wetlands and demonstrate how the multifaceted Jamaica Bay Watershed Protection Plan is being put into action\nVisit a sewage plant and a storm water retention facility learning about CSO’s and the ad hoc way in which the sewage system initially developed as well as the urban planning history of this area\nExplore one of NYC’s Forever Wild areas\nSee lesser known neighborhoods of Brooklyn\, including Spring Creek\, Bergen Basin\, Sheepshead Bay\, Brighton Beach and Coney Island\, all fronting Jamaica Bay\n\nThe tour will be led by BK ecology enthusiasts Adam Schwartz and Matt Malina. \nPlease register here: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/brooklyn-eco-bike-tour-spring-2015-tickets-16625446157 \nEmail mm1566@nyu.edu if you are a student or educator to receive the discount code.

SUMMARY:350 Divestment Working Group
DESCRIPTION:350NYC Next City Divest Working Group meets on the 3rd Wednesday of each month\nABOUT US:\n350NYC is the the local affiliate of 350.org\, a grassroots network of volunteer-run campaigns in over 188 countries working to solve the climate crisis. Here in New York\, we are working locally for a cleaner\, greener\, better New York City for everyone.\nWhy the name 350NYC? 350 means climate safety. To preserve our planet\, scientists tell us we must reduce the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere from its current levels of nearly 400 parts per million to below 350 ppm. (More on the science of 350). But 350 is more than a number—it’s a symbol of where we need to head as a planet.\nLearn more about our campaigns and check our upcoming events to get involved! Join the 350NYC Meetup Group to receive email notifications about events.\nA Campaign to Divest NYC from Fossil Fuels\nIf it is wrong to wreck the climate\, then it is wrong to profit from that wreckage. We believe that educational and religious institutions and governments that serve the public good should divest from fossil fuels. Join us as we launch this important campaign. Learn more.\nSustainable NYC: A Campaign to Reduce Our City’s Carbon Footprint\nThe 350NYC Sustainability Working Group is finding creative ways to help New Yorkers reduce their carbon footprint and make the city a better place to live. Our main campaign right now is to help residents make the easy switch to renewable energy. Learn more about the renewable energy campaign by visiting our Wind Power page.\nA Campaign to Stop Natural Gas Extraction and Waste Disposal in NY\nHydraulic fracturing\, known as fracking\, is a process used to get methane gas out of the ground. Fracking threatens our groundwater\, the health of our communities\, and the global climate. Learn more.\nOngoing Campaigns: No Keystone XL Pipeline and more!\nLearn about how thousands of people are taking action to stop the Keystone XL pipeline that is\, as climate scientist James Hansen put it\, “game over for the climate.” \nLocated at New York Society for Ethical Culture\, Room 508. 2 West 64th Street (at Central Park West) \nPhoto courtesy of: act.350.org

SUMMARY:Minetta Brook Walk
DESCRIPTION:Minetta Brook Walk  \nWednesday May 27 at 6:30 p.m.  \nGreenwich Village\n \nBefore NYC became concrete and asphalt\, the island was covered by rivers\, streams and marshes. Greenwich Village’s Minetta Brook is one such watercourse and still makes its presence known in the basements of the structures built on top of it; some are still visible if you know where to look. \nJoin urban explorer Steve Duncan of Undercity.org as he shows us the Minetta’s 1.5 mile buried path and explains the waterway functioning both today and in the past. He’ll point out the secret code on the manhole covers\, tell you what their placement means\, and how different engravings indicate what lies beneath the city. On the walk\, you can peer into ventilation holes and manhole covers to get a glimpse of the underground waterways. Afterward\, you may never walk the city’s streets again without wondering what lies beneath. \nPlease register here: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/minetta-brook-walk-may-27-tickets-16812641062 \nLight rain we walk.
