CPL Nature Club: Protecting Urban Biodiversity Nature Walk (Main)
Join Earthwise Aware for a fascinating walk as we explore how land use and climate change shape the future of urban green spaces. The loss of biodiversity and the impacts of climate change are pressing challenges, but small actions can lead to big change.
Discover how you can make a difference by helping to protect urban ecosystems. Learn to observe and document the incredible interactions between plants, animals, and their habitats while contributing to EwA’s community-driven ecology science projects. Together, we can create a brighter future for urban nature!
Meet in Joan Lorentz Park. Registration required.
Summer Reading: Community Build (O'Neill)
Join friends at the O'Neill Branch to build, build, BUILD! Let your imagination run wild with LEGOs, Magna-Tiles and other building toys.
The Library has plenty of LEGO pieces, so you don't need to bring your own.

Curbside Food Waste Pickup
In 2009, the City set a goal to reduce residential trash disposal by 30% by 2020, and by 80% by 2050. With that goal in mind, the City expanded curbside food waste pickup to all buildings with 1 to 12 units. 25,000 households (8,100 buildings) are now eligible to participate.
