The team from Reworld Waste spent a wonderful evening last week on the nautical mile in Freeport as guest speakers at the monthly meeting of Operation Splash. It was a wonderful opportunity to share the excitement of our recent rebrand. The 80 SPLASH members who were in attendance were all very excited to better understand the impact Reworld is making on building a smarter, more sustainable world. Operation SPLASH is a volunteer-based organization dedicated to improving the quality of Long Island’s south shore bays, waterways and beaches. They carry out their mission through marine debris cleanups, advocacy efforts and STEM-based education for schools. We value our corporate partnership with this dedicated organization and appreciate all that President Rob Weltner and his team are doing to keep our local waterways clean!

Some ways to help with climate change and unite a community is composting. GrowNYC compost program, in collaboration with the NYC Sanitation Department, is facing budget cuts as of courtesy of Mayor Adams. Which will take effect in the new year. This decision jeopardizes our environment and community well-being. Grow NYC is collecting signatures to petition Mayor Adams to reconsider and save the compost program. 📝 Composting isn't just waste reduction; it's a powerful tool against climate change. By composting, we reduce landfill waste, lower greenhouse gas emissions, and enrich our soil. Community compost sites foster environmental stewardship and bring neighbors together for a common cause. The consequences of cutting the compost program are dentrimental which includes Increased landfill waste, higher carbon footprints, and a missed opportunity for community bonding.

Publicity Manager and Partner at Monteiro & Company and experienced environmental sustainability advocate
JHBG Tree LC team was awarded a $15,000 grant from the City Parks Foundation to carry out a tree stewardship and native plant program in Jackson Heights, Queens. We aspire to make our community—the most diverse in New York City— the greenest in all of New York City, for the benefit of all of its people. Though the all-volunteer JHBG Tree LC operates in only one neighborhood, it is the city's most active tree stewardship program, leading even professionally led groups operating in all five boroughs. Our focus is environmental sustainability and resilience because trees truly are Mother Nature's air conditioners. Here are some highlights of what we've done and will continue to do thanks to this grant: * We care for several hundred trees a year, targeting vulnerable recently planted trees and trees surrounded by pollinator gardens that we've planted. * We've created native pollinator gardens at two historic neighborhood buildings, our Post Office and P.S. 69 elementary. At thee latter we are in the midst of planting a native mini-woodland habitat. * Our program include environmental education, teaching volunteers who range from elementary school to seniors about the importance of recreating a piece of the natural world in Jackson Heights. Why do we do it? *Trees remove air pollution and even water pollution (by absorbing rain, less runoff reaches sewage treatment plants, which sometime become overloaded and must dump untreated sewage into local rivers and bays.) *The main goal is to use nature to ease the effects of climate change. Trees truly are Mother Nature's air conditioners. Neighborhoods with many trees are significantly cooler than those lacking them. What we are doing in Jackson Heights is now part of a larger movement across New York City. For nearly five years we've participated in what is now known as Forest For All NYC, a coalition leading the effort to increase our city's tree canopy to at least 30 percent, equitably, by 2035. The Jackson Heights Beautification Group is a nonprofit civic, environmental and arts organization, whose goal is to create the city's greenest and friendliest neighborhood for the benefit of all its people.

Weber County Economic Development Director and Government Relations West Weber Industrial District and Renewable Energy Hub
Weber county is excited about this pending partnership. The development of the West Weber corridor is inevitable; it's a process that's been in motion for decades. However, the county has taken a proactive stance, laying out a sustainable, comprehensive, and intelligent approach to managing this development in the Western Weber General Plan. The county and UIPA’s aim is to ensure that only the most suitable projects are chosen and supported, with each contributing to the economic and environmental sustainability, not just of the West Weber corridor, but of Northern Utah as a whole. https://lnkd.in/gNzztP_5 #winninginweber #webercountyeconomicdevelopment #uipa
Since January, we’ve been fine-tuning the West Weber Project Area plan, incorporating valuable insights from our stakeholders. Located near major transport routes like Interstate 15 and Union Pacific rail facilities, this 9,000-acre area is poised for strategic development. We’ve especially focused on environmental concerns, engaging with experts and organizations such as the Department of Natural Resources. Next week, we'll present our comprehensive Wetlands Strategy, as part of our overall West Weber Project Area Plan, to our board for adoption, ensuring that every decision we make prioritizes ecological integrity. As Ben Hart, our executive director, emphasized at last Friday's Friends of Great Salt Lake - 2024 Issues Forum, "There will be those who ask, 'how many of the wetlands do you want to protect?' All of them. And if we can't protect them, we're certainly not going to enable their destruction." Learn more about our commitment to sustainability and view the draft of our Wetlands Strategy here: https://lnkd.in/ge-8JFmB
