Times Square, one of the busiest tourist destinations in the world, faces significant waste management challenges due to its high foot traffic, fast food consumption, and entertainment industry. Overflowing trash bins, excessive single-use plastics, and improper recycling are common issues. The area's bright lights and bustling streets attract millions of visitors daily, contributing to a constant cycle of waste buildup. Despite the presence of trash cans and recycling bins, improper disposal and littering remain a major concern. Addressing these challenges requires improved recycling infrastructure, increased public awareness, and stricter enforcement of waste regulations to keep Times Square clean and sustainable.

Grand Central Terminal, a historic transportation hub and architectural marvel, faces unique waste management challenges due to its 750,000 daily commuters and visitors. The constant flow of travelers, numerous food vendors, and retail establishments creates significant waste streams that often overwhelm existing disposal systems. While the terminal maintains a relatively clean appearance thanks to dedicated maintenance staff, behind-the-scenes waste sorting and recycling efforts struggle to keep pace with volume. Our mapping reveals hotspots near food courts and main concourses where improved bin placement, clearer signage, and strategic waste collection points could dramatically improve recycling rates and reduce contamination. Grand Central represents a perfect opportunity to demonstrate how efficient waste management systems can function effectively even in high-traffic urban environments.

The Garry Oak Meadow Preservation Society (GOMPS) formed in 1992 because members of the community were concerned about rapid loss of Čaŋēɫč (lək̓ʷəŋən) or ĆEṈ¸IȽĆ (SENĆOŦEN) or p'hwulhp (HUL'Q'UMI'NUM') also known as Garry oak (scientific name: Quercus garryana) and the associated ecosystem (Kwetlal or ḰȽO,EL). The society is dedicated to the preservation, protection and restoration of Garry oak stands and their natural habitats. We are a BC registered with CRA charitable status. We established a nursery with the goal of growing the next generation of Garry oaks with acorns obtained from the locally adapted Garry oak population.​Our seedlings have been planted as part of many stewardship and restoration projects across the region on public and private lands. Help us steward the urban forest and for locally-adapted Garry oak seedlings that are available by donation. We are 100% volunteer run, grassroots group helping to make a difference. Please join us!

Garnethill Park is a beautifully-landscaped, partially-terraced public park in Glasgow City Centre's Garnethill area. Opened in 1991, the park has a large play area with wooden play equipment, small waterfalls running over rocks, low-bench seating for relaxing chats, & grassy areas with brick/cobblestone paths in between (please refer to accessibility note below). One of the park's beautiful features is its unusual lighting, made of square metal light-boxes created in a style similar to the architecture of Charles Rennie Mackintosh (a famous Scottish architect whose work can be found throughout Glasgow).
