Where?

JH SCRAPS, a community composting center operated by the Jackson Heights Beautification Group established was established in Oct. 2012. The composting project was urged by the Jackson Heights Beautification Group’s Green Agenda for Jackson Heights, an environmental planning effort that drew more than 400 residents to 15 outreach meetings. This is an example of community advocacy and action. The rich soil that the food scraps provide once they are composted is returned to parks and green spaces in Jackson Heights.

Celebrating the whole of NYC at the Open Engagement festival, this mapping project utilized the famous NYC Panorama at Queens Museum, a giant 3-D map of the city. This workshop was created by Los Hibridos and Green Map NYC in spring 2014, and participants came from all over the world. We all enjoyed exploring the sites at the far ends of the city simply by walking around this "indoor helicopter tour of New York".
