Action Track: Building Resilience

Support Pollinators

At least 30% of crops and 90% of flowering plants rely on pollinators, including monarch butterflies, to produce fruit. I will spend 60 minutes researching which plants support local native pollinators and plant some in my yard.

    Pollinators are the driving force behind plants reproducing. Without them the next generation of native plants to their specific region or ecosystem might die out. If this were to happen the animals that eat the plants lose there nourishment, resulting in ecosystems destabilizing and certain animals dying out.
