2008 CityRoots Photo Journal now available!
UEI is excited to introduce the 2008 CityRoots Photo Journal, highlighting the hard work of over 180 dedicated community volunteers belonging to 11 neighborhood ecological restoration projects across the Boston area.
Over the course of the summer, 78 trees and close to 200 shrubs and perennials were proudly added to the Boston landscape, contributing to UEI's mission of building healthy, vibrant cities.
Congratulations to all our participants - 2008 was the most successful year in CityRoots history! See you in 2009!
Harry Johnson
Americorps*VISTA Sustainable Cities Program Assistant
Harry grew up south of the Mason-Dixon line in Charlotte, North Carolina. He graduated from UNC Asheville with a BS in Environmental Policy and Management in May 2008. While at UNCA, Harry focused his academic and extra-curricular time on sustainable transportation planning, working with the University and the City of Asheville to improve travel options for UNC Asheville students. Harry's excited about living in Boston (Newton, actually) without a car, and promoting urban sustainability through UEI's Grow Boston Greener program. When Harry isn't saving the world by bicycle, he enjoys home-cooked meals (with sweet tea), ACC basketball, the Sox, and American History. Luckily all those things can be found in Boston! (with the possible exception of good sweet tea. He's working on that).
