Yep, I think we need to get serious about connecting habitats, protecting blocks of habitat before they get fragmented in the first place, and get more outdoor education into the classroom. If we begin to educate the public at ages 6, 7, and 8 it's going to be a lot easier to get them to understand that a lawn dosed in chemicals every other week is not healthy for humans, rivers, oceans, or wildlife

The silver lining here is that this is doable. It's not some insurmountable problem. Tallamy (Bringing Nature Home), among many others, is trying to show us how - we just need to listen. Each of us can contribute to the solution. We just need to rethink our landscaping choices.
