BEST DIRECT ACTION ENVIRONMENTAL ORGANIZATION THAT'S OLD ENOUGH TO BUY BOOZE
Time's Up! NYC
These guys have been fighting the good fight for over 20 years, from
way back when "environmentalist" conjured the image of bearded, knit
cap-wearing dudes fighting off a whaler with their bare hands (and
there's nothing wrong with that image). To survive two decades of
thankless, under-funded righteous campaigning is no small thing, but
Time's Up! has done more than merely survive. One huge thing they've
been advocating for two decades has been a more bike-friendly New York
City, and maybe, just maybe, after all the Critical Masses and Central
Park Moonlight Rides and the heartbreaking Ghost Bike project, the city
has begun to respond with actual bike lanes. Hats off to you, Time's
Up!, for being such a big part of making that happen.
