Peace on Earth Day
(the 25th of the month, every month)
This Peace on Earth Day:
Don't Spray Chemicals!
Spraying pesticides to protect your garden causes more harm than good, poisoning pollinators and damaging your local ecosystem. Predators like birds, ladybugs, and even nematodes can present a natural alternative to poison. And some natural methods of control like azadirachtin (derived from neem) have proven less harmful to bees.
March Spotlight:
Half-Earth Project
What would a planet that could support habitats for biodiversity in the future look like? The Half-Earth Project seeks to answer this question, guided by entomologist E. O. Wilson's groundbreaking research. On Half-Earth's website, you can explore an interactive map that highlights the most crucial ecosystems for species' survival.

“Who Drives The Climate Train” by Jane Braxton Little —The Nation
From EARTH: The Anthology:
"Modern biology has produced a genuinely new way of looking at the world that is incidentally congenial to the inner direction of biophilia. In other words, instinct is in this rare instance aligned with reason. The conclusion I draw is optimistic: to the degree that we come to understand other organisms, we will place a greater value on them, and on ourselves."
—E. O. Wilson, Biophilia
Together we can make the world a more livable place for all life on Earth
Happy Peace on Earth Day!
