Rewilding is the return of natural species and ecosystems to areas where they have been eradicated. This includes large-scale conservation aimed at restoring and protecting natural processes and core wilderness areas, providing connectivity between such areas, and protecting or reintroducing apex predators and keystone species. It also includes the return of wild plants and animals to spaces intended for humans, as well as the primitivist philosophy of rewilding humanity.

Help me get city officials to care about dying local pond!!

Hello! I am a resident of Newport, RI where a local beloved pond, Almy Pond, has become unhabitable due to high levels of pollutants. My university professor has been conducting research on the water quality for the last four years, but so far the city has not cared one bit. How can I convince my city to care about the pond and its health? Many plants and animals living in/around the pond have suffered and even died due to its health decline. The pond has high levels of e. coli and other pollutants, but the city refuses to track the source.

Should I make a petition and go door to door? Would that even work? Does anyone have any cost-effective or time-efficient suggestions? Any advice is welcome. Thanks in advance!!!!

Which tree?

We have the option of putting in a new tree and were given these choices:

Crepe Myrtle Serviceberry Dogwood Hornbean

I’m really interested in what is best for pollinators and birds. Which one to choose?

Thanks for any input

Update: thank you everyone. We’ve decided on serviceberry!

Anybody got a map for the distribution or Eurasian Beaver before humans turned them all into perfume?

Far back as you can go, this side of the glacial maximum. Want to know if they were ever native to the Iberian peninsula
