A groundsel tree grows at the Midfield Wetlands Walk in Norfolk, Va., on July 26, 2024. Since 2016, the Lafayette Wetlands Partnership has restored the area by first removing invasive species, including 12,000 square feet of invasive common reed, known as phragmites, and a number of invasive plants in Elwood Meadow. In their place, 14 volunteer events were held to plant native species, including 4,000 plugs of native grasses and other herbaceous plants, and additional larger plants, shrubs and trees.

A rain garden captures stormwater runoff pollution at the Knollwood Life Plan Community in Northwest Washington, D.C., on July 17, 2024. The retirement community installed the example of green infrastructure in partnership with District Stormwater. The rain garden, bordering the Knollwood parking lot, is estimated to capture 2.2 million gallons of runoff annually, filtering it using nature-based processes before it reaches Rock Creek, the Potomac River, and ultimately the Chesapeake Bay. The new rain garden is approximately 4,700 square feet and captures runoff from 1.6 acres of impervious surface. It includes a variety of native and flowering plants that will provide habitat and food for pollinators. (Photo by Rhiannon Johnston/Chesapeake Bay Program)

The Great Suburban Walk
There’s a federal election on its way, yet our political leaders continue to backflip, delay and deny on climate change. With so much at stake, it’s time for the community to put climate action back on the election agenda.
The 2010 Walk Against Warming demand that our political leaders face up to their responsibility on climate change. We’ll remind them that to secure our votes, they must ‘Walk with the People, Not the Big Polluters’.
This year we took our message for a safe climate straight to the people that matter most – the voters.
We coordinated hundreds of Victorians in three key electorates (Melbourne, Deakin and La Trobe) to come together and letterbox. To make sure that voters in those areas know exactly what actions our leaders need to take on climate change.
So that means that less than one week before the federal election, up to 300,000 of the most influential voters in Victoria will receive our safe climate message. How good!
