- If you’ve got “take down the Christmas tree” on your to-do list this weekend, consider giving it a chance to support life beyond the season. From creating habitats for freshwater fish to enriching soil in gardens, your tree can be repurposed in ways that nurture ecosystems in your community. Be on the lookout for local lake habitat drives and mulch programs, or even more creative reuse options—like crafting coasters or natural sprays.
- How much nature do we need? So asks Dr. Anastassia Makarieva to ring in the New Year. “We should protect wild nature as a working mechanism for climate stabilization…All ecosystems that are still capable of self-regeneration must be protected from our exploitation as much as possible. Stop taking from them. They are our gold standard, our ultimate treasure.”
- As we look ahead to another year championing nature-based solutions, we look back on a year of growth, curiosity, and Life. Whether you’ve joined us online, on the water, or out in a forest, thank you for being a part of our community last year. Here were just a few of our favorite moments.
