Presentation Information
Title
Creating Healthy Habits and Habitats
Subject(s)
Description
Habitat loss is a critical environmental issue and a great threat to birds. As we modify the land around us for development, we degrade natural habitat and reduce biodiversity. Habitat preservation, conservation and restoration is needed, and can help even in small spaces such as our backyards. In 2022, Martha had her homesite certified by the Illinois Audubon Society as a Bird & Butterfly Sanctuary and has worked with others interested in certification including community groups and churches. The presentation will cover the certification process, what it takes to create habitat and what kind of sustainable practices we can do to help nature and wildlife.
