Years ago this building was demolished. Now it is an urban pollinator garden with vibrant native plants in NJ. It is a crucial, protective habitat for wild birds & insects needing sustenance. Nature advocacy will be an uphill slope for a while. Creating wildlife habitat is more important than ever.

If you are an ecological gardener planting native plants, use signage to let your neighbors know what you are doing. In most cases they will want to follow along as soon as they start seeing the butterflies.

A powerful piece by @maryannaise.bsky.social about climate commitment. We need to be loud.
I wrote this while wildfires were engulfing nearly all of Australia
"Yes, it's true that you can't solve the climate crisis alone, but it's even more true that we can't solve it without you. It's a team sport." This piece by @maryannaise.bsky.social is so relevant today!
