The Palisadian-Post and Resilient Palisades have teamed up to present readers with a weekly “Green Tip” provided by the local environmental organization.
In the works since November 2019, five community members waited for an opportunity to launch the nonprofit, which hosted its first virtual event in mid-August and has gained traction since.
Four Community Teams—Food, Clean Air, Solar and Plastic/Waste—have been formed to tackle projects that will be announced in the coming months, with more than 120 Palisadians involved.
Resilient Palisades is working to strengthen the community as it responds to the environmental and climate crisis, according to the group’s website, inviting Palisadians to partner in undertaking projects that support the health and well-being of the neighborhood, surrounding communities and planet.
“Resilient Palisades is a brand-new organization that aims to bring Palisadians together to work to address the climate crisis,” Co-founder Ingrid Steinberg explained to the Post at the start of August. “We’re aiming to be the local environmental group that brings together all kinds of different interests in environmental work and we hope that, with a broad enough interest, we can develop grassroots efforts to make real change.”
Here is the first “Green Tip,” which readers can look for in upcoming editions of the paper:
