The city has many parks, and promotes greenery and the environment. The city has planted trees for years and is a leader in the nationwide effort to re-tree urban areas.{{citation needed|date=August 2013}} [[Tilden Regional Park]] lies east of the city, occupying the upper extent of [[Wildcat Canyon]] between the [[Berkeley Hills]] and the [[San Pablo Ridge]]. The city is also heavily involved in creek restoration and wetlands restoration, including a planned ''daylighting'' of Strawberry Creek along Center Street. The [[Berkeley Marina]] and [[East Shore State Park]] flank its shoreline at [[San Francisco Bay]] and organizations like the [[Urban Creeks Council]] and [[Friends of the Five Creeks]], the former of which is headquartered in Berkeley, support the riparian areas in the town and coastlines as well. [[César Chávez Park]], near the [[Berkeley Marina]], was built at the former site of the city dump.
