About this Summit Location
Wyandanch is a small, culturally diverse community in western Suffolk County,
Long Island. It’s centrally located for those from other parts of Long Island. The
school is close to Wyandanch Park, which is heavily impacted by litter/plastic but
also easy walking distance of some town and county woodland. The vegetation
is of a wet woodland. Our schools all have water refill stations with filtered water.
Suffolk County has already banned plastic straws and Styrofoam in addition to
New York State’s plastic bag ban.

Targeting the source of these emissions — namely fossil fuels — and doing so equitably, is the goal of the FIRE element.
