Newark Shoreline Cleanup

Newark’s unique shoreline location and historical ecology make it a regional priority for action. Sea level rise and flooding are serious threats to local residents and industries, but you don’t have to sit and wait for disaster—you can take action through local planning and policy development, implementation of sustainable infrastructure solutions, and, most of all, making sure the city knows that Newark residents want to see change!

The event starts with a brief discussion to learn from local experts about the importance of our wetlands, then you will do a cleanup of the Don Edwards Shoreline area. There will be opportunities to document your ideas and visions for your community and meet your neighbors and fellow climate advocates!
