Sustainable Cleveland 2019 is past its midpoint and picking up steam. The project, launched by the city of Cleveland in 2009, aims to raise awareness and encourage individuals and businesses to develop projects to enhance the area’s sustainable practices.
Each year of the decade-long project is designated to focus on a different aspect of sustainability. 2015 is the Year of Clean Water. It gets off to a rousing start with the annual kickoff event at in the rotunda of City Hall.
There, city departments, nonprofit organizations and businesses will set up tables to provide information and share what they are working on to restore, protect and conserve the area’s fresh water supply, one of it greatest assets and attractions. Find out ways you can get involved with the growing mass of forward-thinking northeast Ohioans working to make the area an environmental leader.
You can learn about efforts such as Linda Zolten Wood’s Collinwood Painted Rain Barrel Project. Her barrels, which have been traveling around to area institutions such as Great Lakes Science Center, the Rockefeller Greenhouse and the Cleveland Museum of Natural History, will be gracing the rotunda of City Hall.
The event is open to all, and it’s free. Just be sure to bring an I.D. to get into the building.
