Thank you, New York!

Legislation to ban toxic pesticides in parks was introduced in the last session of the City Council by councilman Ben Kallos, at the urging of the kindergarten class at PS 290 - Manhattan New School on the Upper East Side, whose teacher, Paula Rogovin, had helped them learn about pesticides and their impact on people. 

We are grateful to Paula and her students for their determination to make NYC parks a safe place for everyone!
