Environmental conservation is a local endeavor.

*You* conserve the wildlife, herbivore, insectivore, herpitore, Aves and mammalian in your area.

Get to know the beautiful species in your area. You likely have in some part of your daily life one or more species that are unique, be it a plant, an insect, a bird or an animal. If you live on the coast, you may have a fish, sea snail or mullosk that is singular in the impact it has on the environment.

It is local. Identify the beauty, please, and the unique quality of the plant and animals in your neighborhood.

Preservation starts locally and at home.

A big part of getting my bearings for me, personally, is to live in harmony with the life around me. I've gotten a little down with all the rancor lately, and it brings me peace to take a step back and appreciate the quiet wonder of the lush spring around me.
