We must reject any misguided policy of removing the public’s and neighborhood’s home-grown efforts that make our NYC Parks unique, vibrant, and respond to the specific issues of their communities. The ethos of our Community Gardens and Park advocacy on the Lower East Side and other low-income communities has been built on the concept of environmental justice.
Especially when our Parks and communities have been on the front lines pushing back against “Climate Change” before it had a name.
