Dr. Douglas W. Tallamy: Nature's Best Hope

  • Mystic River Watershed Association P. O. Box 390 Arlington, MA 02476-0004 (map)

A free webinar presentation by entomologist and author, Dr. Doug Tallamy, hosted by the Association to Preserve Cape Code (APCC) and The 300 Committee Land Trust of Falmouth.

Recent headlines about global insect declines and three billion fewer birds in North America are a bleak reality check about how ineffective our current landscape designs have been at sustaining the plants and animals that sustain us. Such losses are not an option if we wish to continue our current standard of living on Planet Earth. The good news is that none of this is inevitable. Tallamy will discuss simple steps that each of us can—and must—take to reverse declining biodiversity and will explain why WE OURSELVES, are “Nature’s Best Hope”. Doug Tallamy is author of “Bringing Nature Home-how you can sustain wildlife with native plants” and “Nature’s Best Hope”.
