4th ANNUAL REVERSE TASHLICH: AN ENVIRONMENTAL ACTION WITH SOCIAL JUSTICE IMPACTS

In addition to throwing sins into a body of water, as is customary for the High Holidays in September, we would like to promote a "Reverse Tashlich" where people improve their local watershed by removing trash.

Gather your friends, family or a group from your Temple and help us remove trash from the Mystic River Watershed between September 15th through September 25th ideally. By collecting this litter from your backyard—you will both improve your environment and stop litter from getting into our oceans. A majority of litter found in the ocean comes from rivers. By cleaning up your local watershed, you not only benefit your community—you also help prevent this litter from going downstream and ultimately ending up in the ocean.
