My group and I did a lot of hands on work where we helped clean up our community. We all live in this one world- there’s no such thing as Planet B. So, when it can to Social Justice and taking care of our home, we made sure to make a change. Whether it be small or big. We helped spawn oysters with The Billion Oyster Project, we held several clean ups with the Gowanus Canal Conservancy and NYC Parks. We even helped reuse and reduce waste by creating art and reusable items like wallets and baskets.
I think our actions made pretty good impacts. We were able to help out our community by picking up trash all around NYC. We also recycled several plastics. We were also able to raise awareness amongst our community. Our group learned the importance of taking action and getting involved with the world.
