OUR OCEANS: PERIL AND POTENTIAL
The Conservation Committee of The City Gardens Club of New York City believes that knowledge is essential to action. And so for the past 13 years we have organized annual educational forums on important environmental issues for the benefit of Club members and the general public. This year, six panelists, all experts in their fields, will shed light on the many challenges facing our oceans and share their ideas for potential changes.
