GREEN SUNDAY
Join us for our next Green Sunday! Find out how local people are cleaning up and restoring the beautiful natural habitat of our creeks. Learn about making our streets better for our environment as well as better looking.

1) We'll hear about the Sausal Creek restoration project in Oakland. Local creek activists will tell us about their ongoing project to return as much as possible of Sausal Creek to a more natural state.

2) A member of the Oakland-based urban design firm, Community Design + Architecture will present his firm's "Green Streets" handbook for ecologically responsible road design, first created for the Portland Metro Region. Greater integration achieves environmental goals as well as create attractive urban streetscapes. See: www.community design.com/projects/building/greenstreetshdr.html
