Green plays hide & seek in a tapestry of grey asphalt and brown buildings in Jackson Heights. A lack of trees means a dearth of places birds can call home. Participants joined Purvi & Troy in explorations of how green space helps increase clean air, limits the heat index, and gives space for our feathered friends (and people!) to nest & soar.

“We need joy as we need air. We need love as we need water. We need each other as we need the earth we share.”

— Maya Angelou
“We are on Earth to take care of life. We are on Earth to take care of each other.”

— Xiye Bastida
“I love this beautiful, mysterious, complicated planet we get to call home. I don’t mean any simple, sappy kind of love. I don’t mean anything cute or tame. I mean living, breathing, heart-beating love. Wild love. This love is not a noun, she is an action verb. She can shoot stars into the sky. She can spark a movement. She can sustain a revolution.”

— Mary Annaïse Heglar
