REFLECTION QUESTIONAction Track: Building Resilience Research Benefits of BiodiversityHow can you encourage biodiversity by your own actions?
Jenna Jay 4/18/2020 8:39 AMI can support biodiversity by creating an environment in my backyard that supports a variety of species and plants and by not using any harsh chemicals that hurt the natural systems in place. I can buy local food to support small farms that also practice ecological farming and not support companies that are hurting our natural world. -
