What kind of world do you want to live in?

We want to live in URBAN PARADISE. There’s been a lot of damage done, so it will take work and creativity.

The mission of the Urban Paradise Guild is to re-create native habitats in the urban areas of Miami-Dade County, and to promote sustainable models for healthy living that safeguard, enhance and integrate the human and natural worlds.

Urban gardening and fruit trees are examples of the plant habitats that sustain humans. We do this too, because how can a place be Urban Paradise without great fruits & vegetables?

Governments will respond to the will of the people provided we tell them what we want. And what we want is a livable world.

This is what Citizens’ Climate Lobby works for. To empower citizens to connect with and influence their members of Congress. To spread the idea that each one of us can address climate change.

Working together we can make this happen.

By building constructive, working relationships with members of Congress we seek passage of Carbon Fee and Dividend, a climate change solution that bridges the partisan divide.

OPAL stands for Organizing People and Activating Leaders. Our mission is building power for Environmental Justice and Civil Rights in our communities of the Portland region.

Environmental justice addresses how people experience the lived environment. Some areas are safe and healthy, while other areas are not. Not everyone has equal access to clean air, soil and water.

Love Your Block offers mini-grants and neighborhood cleanups for beautification projects.

In 2015, the City of Boston kicked off the Love Your Block mini-grant program thanks to Cities of Service. Love Your Block will now be a permanent Boston program, including: mini-grants, neighborhood cleanups (formerly Boston Shines), and (eventually) community tool sheds.

As always, the Office of Civic Engagement continues to urge Bostonians to revitalize their neighborhoods, one block at a time.
