Context
For decades, we have witnessed a significant decline in insect, bird, and plant species. The destruction of these ecosystems is mainly due to humans and how we have managed the land.
There has been a significant increase in human and pet diseases such as cancer, autism, asthma, and neurological disorders that are directly related to the chemicals we use on our lawns and gardens.
The effects of climate change, especially rising temperatures and changing precipitation patterns have led to the loss of habitats for many species.
So much seems out of our control. However, you can make a difference in your in your own yard, just by doing better.
We find that the issue and the solutions are so complex that people can be paralyzed and not do anything.
However there are many things you can do, and while some may require a considerable effort, many do not.
Do Better β Itβs Not Difficult
There are many small things you can do to improve your home landscape, such as adding native plants, minimizing herbicides and pesticides, and changing your
spring and fall cleanup approach.
Reducing your lawn footprint can have a very significant effect on the health of people, pets and the planet.
Just do better.
