Canarsie Eco Village Community Resilience Pilot

Tue, 2013-10-29 15:52 — debbiefook

Canarsie Healing Center & EcoVillage - Community Resilience Pilot Initiative

 

Canarsie Eco Village & Natural Healing Center is one proposed initiative from the community as part of an encompassing plan for the future of Canarsie. Said local Rabbi Yosef Serebryanski or Rabbi Yossi, as he is fondly called by everyone " An eco-community can be an integral sustaining power for Canarsie to weather any future storms, natural or man-made.It is important for any group of people living together to have clean water and food during any disaster. If it is freely available then it also means there is no need for rioting, pillaging or mayhem as it allows people to continue to co-exist peacefully."

Welcome to Flood Zone NYC

Fri, 2013-10-18 11:25 — debbiefook

Flood Zone NYC was born out of a frustration with the official NYC hurricane evacuation zone tool by Dr. Hanley. The official tool takes too many steps to find the most important information and difficult to know what to do with information if you are in a flood zone.
