SUBJECT: I want a clean and accessible NY Harbor

Dear Mayor Adams,

My name is [Full Name]. As a resident of New York City, and proud supporter of Billion Oyster Project, I believe that ALL New Yorkers have the right to access a clean, accessible, and abundant Harbor. I ask you to take action to provide this — now and for decades to come. 

Please upgrade our infrastructure to eliminate combined sewer overflows.

Please prioritize the restoration of our shorelines, ecosystems, and biodiversity.

Please work towards more equitable waterfront access for ALL New Yorkers.

Sincerely, 

[Your name] 

Thank you for taking action and for being an important member of the Billion Oyster Project community! See you next year.
