Prospect Park Environmental Action

Prospect Park is Brooklyn nature: its 585 acres are home to a thriving ecosystem of hundreds of species of plants and animals, including: 30,000 trees, Brooklyn’s only lake and last remaining forest. It is an environmental treasure that benefits our health, our planet and our quality of life for millions of Brooklynites, who have the least amount of green space in all of New York City.
