On September 17th, the whole world celebrates World Cleanup Day. During that day, River Cleanup, together with four mission-driven organizations, will take on a massive river cleanup at Randall’s Island Park. Each organization will be represented by its local NY staff and everyone is welcome to join the effort.
Le Botaniste, the first carbon-neutral certified organic plant-based restaurant in NYC, South Pole, a global climate change consultancy, SPIN, the original ping pong social club, and Itineris, a global technology company that develops and implements innovative software solutions for utilities, will be joining forces.
