On July 16, 2014 the greens teens went on their first trip. This is a trip that we took to Fresh Kills Park that use to be a landfill with all of new york city's trash but is now a great place of clean grass and so many other beautiful sights. Chris Velasco took us around the park. It was amazing to see how they turned something so smelly and messy to something to beneficial to the environment and to the people. We learned lots of things and we walked most of the time but it was definitely worth the exercise. We also learned information about the gas well that they installed at fresh kills. The gas wells collect the gas formed from the trash that is then purified and sold to National Grid.
