Telling real stories of progress that replace dread & fear with hope & action. Environmental educator, content creator, and independent good news reporter.
Today’s #goodnews that I wish my friends knew: a new study proves that by just letting your grass grow a little longer, you can help boost butterflies by up to 93%…! The main reason for butterfly decline in the UK is having no safe home from habitat destruction, which is why it can be so beneficial to create your own wild space with nutrients & vegetation. These animals can be quite adaptable, and by being a little lazy, we can easily give them a fighting chance.

Pollinator wildflowers offer continuous flowers, pollen and nectar throughout the growing season. They are hardy and self-seeding, and ideal for reclamation and rehabilitation projects, conservation and pollinator habitats, roadside groundcover, and increasingly in home gardens and yards. Native pollinator plants are not only beneficial for bees, but also for the environment as a whole. They help to reduce erosion, conserve water, and improve soil quality. Moreover, native plants are more resistant to pests and diseases, which means that they require less maintenance and less use of harmful chemicals. By planting native plants, we are also supporting the local ecosystem by providing habitats for other native wildlife, including birds and butterflies. #hydroseedingcertified #hydroseedingcontractor #hydroseedingpro #hydroseedingspecialists #hydroseedingapplicator #hydroseedingcanada #hydroseeding #hydroseedingprofessional #hydroseedinglife #hydroseedingroadside #hydroseed #hydroseeders #hydromulch #hydromulching #landscaping #erosioncontrol #NewBrunswick #SprayItDontLayIt #erosioncontrolproducts #erosionprevention #stormwatersolutions #stormwaterrunoff #bioticearth #bioticsoil #bioticsoilamendment #landscapeconstruction #landscape_specialist #waterdelivery #bulkwater #NBRoadBuilders

Did you know March 14 is "National Learn About Butterflies Day?" 🦋 We are honored to provide protected habitat where these incredibly important pollinators can thrive! As we look forward to welcoming numerous species of migrating butterflies this spring, keep in mind the information below: 🦋 Butterflies are dependent upon plants to provide nourishment for their young and nectar from flowers for their adult food. 🦋 HABITAT PRESERVATION is the only solution to butterfly conservation. 🦋 Residential and commercial development, wetland alterations, reservoir construction and some logging and farming practices can be harmful to butterfly populations. Learn more from the Georgia Department of Natural Resources here: https://bit.ly/4afdBv3 📷: Common buckeye butterfly at Guale Preserve, St. Simons Island #butterflies #buckeyebutterfly #pollinator #gualepreserve #stsimonsisland #stsimonslandtrust

🐝 Scotland is taking these amazing measures to help protect pollinators...🌸 A new report shows that people across Scotland are stepping up to protect our threatened bees, moths, and hoverflies. Here's a glimpse of the amazing work being done: 🌿 From creating wildflower meadows to carrying out bumblebee surveys, communities and organisations are taking action to boost pollinator populations. 🏞️ Projects like Pollinators Along the Tweed and the Irvine to Girvan Nectar Network are creating pollinator-friendly habitats and green corridors to support insect movement and adaptation. 🌼 Highland Wildflower Meadow Mosaic is blossoming with 91 pocket meadows across northern Scotland, thanks to the efforts of volunteers, schools, and communities. 🌍 Significant conservation projects, like Species on the Edge, are securing a future for priority pollinator species across Scotland's coasts and islands. As spring approaches, you can also continue to support our pollinators by planting flowers and participating in monitoring schemes. Check out the latest projects our insect monitoring devices have been a part of at our website, and get inspired: https://agrisound.io/ 💚 #SaveThePollinators #Scotland #SaveTheBees #Biodiversity

We see giants, they see their home. Elephants, the gentle giants of the savanna, often wander into our communities, sparking fear and frustration. But let's pause for a moment and consider their perspective. They're not invaders; they're simply searching for food and water, just like us. Through community-led conservation efforts, we're forging a new path—one where humans and wildlife thrive together. By fostering understanding, empathy, and sustainable practices, we're creating a future where elephants are not seen as adversaries, but as partners in conservation. #wildlifeconservation #communityLedConservation

Just because it’s cold outside and the plants are dormant doesn’t mean you have to sit idle. It’s the perfect time to start planning for that pollinator garden you’ve always dreamed of. One of the 6 principles of River-Friendly Landscaping is to create a wildlife habitat that supports the biodiversity of our watershed. Developing a plan for a pollinator garden can be done in 3 easy steps. To learn more, read our latest blog post. https://lnkd.in/gKMU37RM https://lnkd.in/g92pP57c
