Jersey City is not only home to its human residents, it's also habitat for an array of plants and animals.

The Jersey City Green Team is looking for citizen scientists to help report their sightings of plants and animals found in the city. Please include any sightings from your observations in the city to this project.

We are hoping to gather data in 2018 to get a better picture of our city's biodiversity. This will help in planning and targeting areas for an organized city-wide BioBlitz in 2019.

The Green Team is the environmental action subcommittee of the Jersey City Environmental Commission and is open to everyone. The Green Team supports advancing the efforts of Jersey City’s certification as a sustainable community through the Sustainable Jersey municipal program.

For information about this project or the Jersey City Green Team please email: JerseyCityGreenTeam@gmail.com

Thanks so much, we look forward to your observations!
