Stabilizing Ecosystems

     Eco Educational Design gives the environment another chance to grow. By restoring forest communities with native trees and plants, we allow the energy from the sun to be turned into food for the insects and animals. Today American ecosystems lack nutrition because of landscaping practices and weird weather. By stabilizing the environment, we can balance the planet.

Native Plants

The plants that historically grow and adapted in an environment are the basis of the habitat and are considered native. They support a variety of insects and animals with their fruits and flowers. Some species rely on specific plants, requiring them for their survival. By growing these native plant species, the environment can support all the life that evolved in that ecosystem.

Invasive Species

Introduced species of plants and animals, lack competition and can disrupt the natural balance. We focus our process on the removal of these introduced, or invasive species. Societally, we use a variety of means to do this, including fire and poison. We see that each of these examples has positive and negative effects. Manual and mechanical removal requires more work but is worth the effort. We can use invasive species for their natural resources, like bamboo or introduced trees for their weak wood.

Weird Weather

After much political debate- too much political debate- the scientific understanding of climate change has become taboo for some organizations to address. We see this as a simple issue of increased density in the atmosphere, with too much pollution in many ways. The best ways to improve the quality of life is to provide more for life with deep soil, large forests, and sunshine.
