New York City, like most contemporary cities, faces a series of interconnected ecological issues including stormwater management; climate change adaptation and mitigation; brownfield remediation; air, water, noise, and soil pollution; invasive species and disease; and habitat deterioration and destruction. These problems limit the quality of life in the city not only for people, but for the millions of other organisms that once made this unique and fantastic part of nature home.
 
WCS’s Dr. Eric Sanderson and his team developed the Visionmaker/NYC, AKA Mannahatta: 2409, Project and an online interactive tool for the public to address these concerns and reimagine the future of a greener, more sustainable, and more climate-resistant NYC. Join our Google+ Hangout on Air to meet Dr. Sanderson and learn how you can determine and envision the future of the five boroughs.
