Check out the Environmental Youth Alliance (EYA)! EYA describes itself as “a local, youth driven non-profit organization dedicated to the health of our urban environment, our planet, and the well-being of its people.” Their mission? “[T]o inspire children, youth, and youth adults to connect with the natural world and become sustainability leaders in their communities.” They carry out their mission by organizing community activities that teach and build important skills about topics such as what sustainability issues are key to urban living.
Some of their programs include gardens and a community nursery and orchard. They have three ongoing projects, as well: Treehouse Treats, Lawns to Loaves, and GrassRoutes, which involves biking all the way across Canada! Check out the Programs and Projects page to learn more!
If you do not live in Canada, then check out EYA International! There is a whole website dedicated to overseas projects run by EYA, including the Slum Film Festival, which showcases films about slums, and Up With Hope, a community project in Nairobi, Kenya. Check out the project page to learn more.

Are economists and demographers political hacks? They are not scientists.
While many too many deniers of what is real shout out attractive falsehoods and are heard, those who tell the truth about the human population are ridiculed and marginalized. In large part the colossal global predicament facing the human community in our time is a result of widely shared preternatural demographic theories and consensually validated specious economic theories. Unscientific models have been dishonestly and deceitfully presented and defended as science on our watch. Demographic and economic theorists consciously and deliberately failed to acknowledge and incorporate into their theories well-established scientific knowledge regarding biological evolution, human population dynamics and well known physical ‘rules of the house’ of the planetary home we inhabit. They uniformly fail to recognize a difference between the way the natural world works and the way they think. For example, economists assume the resources of a finite and frangible Earth can supply infinite products. At the behest of corporate benefactors and political powerbrokers, demographers and economists bear primary responsibility for directing the human community down a ‘primrose path’ that is marked by skyrocketing overpopulation, rampant overproduction, outrageous overconsumption, unconscionable hoarding as well as extraordinary resource depletion and widespread environmental degradation. Most experts of demography and economics self-righteously hold onto outdated theories that serve to confuse the public and deny what could be real. A paradigm shift and drastic action to redo demographic and economic thought will be required so that experts in these fields of research embrace relevant science rather than conveniently overlook it.
