Most people see urban centers as the antithesis of nature, but nature always seems to find a way. That’s why we have many thriving ecosystems in the heart of our cities. You may not notice them at first, but they’re there if you look–and with a little help they’ll become truly special places. Natural Areas Conservancy is a New York, NY based non-profit that “works with the New York City Department of Parks and Recreation to protect, restore, and manage expansive natural areas already within the city’s urban park system.” Whether it’s forests, wetlands, rivers, streams, or meadows, they’re aiming to create a better “home to more than 2000 species of plants, and host to 350 species of birds.”
Right now Natural Areas Conservancy is working on four projects. Not only do they have the potential to significantly impact the New York City area, but the focus on biodiversity and wetlands/coastline means that they also have the potential to improve a much broader ecosystem. You can learn more about the impact of these projects here. If you’d like to be a part of this kind of stuff, visit Natural Areas Conservancy’s Idealist page. Right now they’re looking for a Field Coordinator and a Field Researcher.
