Yikes, what's going on? I'm travelling there in a couple weeks... or is it just the start of summer volume?

Homeowners should do a lot to help reverse biodiversity loss. Collective, local action is vital.
But we can't ignore the elephant in the room – progress is going to be slow without governments (via citizens) holding corporations to account for climate change and biodiversity loss.

A lot of the other ideas boil down to "stop using pesticides" (yes!) and "be OK with natural processes in and around your yard" (yes!).
Missing, however, is holding corporations to account for marketing yard and garden herbicides and pesticides, along with other anti-biodiversity practices.

Climate change denial was manufactured by oil and gas interests trying to protect their assets and their their interests. And it has frankensteined into this weird “freedom” movement that actually seems to want more government interference in their personal choices.
