It's Easy Being Green

On Wednesday, April 22, people all over the world will celebrate Earth Day 2009. Some quick research may help you identify activities to make you "greener." OEM recommends one such activity, which also makes you better prepared for flooding: planting a tree.
Not only do trees provide oxygen, but they also help absorb rainwater, which might otherwise flood homes and businesses in New York City. Call 311 to find out more about MillionTreesNYC.
