đź“ş@News12BX spoke with South Bronx advocates in their coverage of last week's Mott Haven parks Walk & Talk led by NY4P and @SouthBronxUnite:
bronx.news12.com
Climate advocates walked through Mott Haven, urging the next mayor to think about increasing parks budgets.
Yesterday NY4P, @SouthBronxUnite & community partners led a Walk & Talk in Mott Haven—spotlighting urgent needs for waterfront access, tree canopy, & climate-resilient parks in a community lacking green space. Support the #Parks2030 platform at https://t.co/2S8k7JoUia

NY4P, @CPFNYC and @tpl_org's letters to the editor ran in print in the @nytimes Metro section, responding to a recent feature on green spaces across the city. "To ensure every NYer has a thriving park... the city must commit to a robust vision including at least #1Percent4Parks"
In @nytimes, a moving survey of large and small parks in every borough that make NYC livable. Parks connect us and protect us from climate change, but disinvestment has stretched @NYCParks thin. Support the #Parks2030 platform at https://t.co/2S8k7Jps7I

No mention of @NYCParks, playgrounds, beaches, rec centers or natural areas in last week's mayoral debate despite their critical importance to quality of life in NYC, plus the impact of recent budget cuts. Maybe tonight's debate will be different?🤞 #Parks2030 #ParksPower #NYC
Get back in, nerds. We’re watching another NYC mayoral debate.

The feature that gave Gotham its strength is one of the greatest challenges it faces today—confronting what feels like a near-existential threat perhaps the most profound test yet of its resiliency. Our @nytimes story this week asks: can we do it? https://t.co/o2AiT8LAOr

Adaptation is a matter of survival, and the city may have to throw every solution available at a worsening situation.
