Conservation tips
Did you know that two in five plant species are at risk of extinction worldwide? This loss of plant biodiversity threatens entire ecosystems, including the animals that depend on them for food and shelter. Here’s how you can help protect plants:
- Plant Native Species – Choose native plants for your garden to support local wildlife and ensure they thrive in your area. This helps maintain local biodiversity and reduces the need for additional resources.
- Reduce Pesticide Use – Avoid harmful chemicals that can damage plants and disrupt ecosystems. Opt for natural pest control methods and organic products to protect your garden and the environment.
- Create Pollinator-Friendly Spaces – Incorporate flowers and plants that attract bees, butterflies, and other pollinators. This promotes healthy ecosystems and helps ensure the survival of these crucial species.
- Practice Water Conservation – Use efficient watering techniques, such as drip irrigation or rainwater collection, to reduce water waste and help plants thrive without depleting resources.
