Grey to Green Initiative

Portland's Bureau of Environmental Services' Grey to Green Initiative is a five year plan dedicated to achieving the following environmental targets in the city of Portland:

- 43 acres of new eco-roofs
- 83,000 new street and yard trees
- 920 new green street facilities
- 800 acres of treatment for new invasive species
- 419 acres of natural areas acquired
- 350 acres of re-vegetation
- 8 culverts removed or reconstructed to enhance fish passage

We are currently about halfway through the timeline. You can see periodic progress reports on the BES website.
