It’s World Environment Day.
In our 20-year history, we’ve protected over 1.3 million acres of our land, protected over 11 billion pollinators, and worked with organizations around the world to restore ecosystems and combat climate change. That’s 20 years of tree growth, native plant restoration, and habitat protection for endangered species.
Our team is currently on the ground in the Puget Sound, where less than 3% of prairie land remains. Of that, only 1% is considered to be in good ecological condition.
Once spanning over 150,000 acres of grasslands, wildflowers, and oak woodland, this ecosystem is essential to wildlife and native pollinators, including the highly endangered Taylor’s Checkerspot butterfly. Prairie grasses can also store vast amounts of carbon in their underground root systems, making them a vital landscape for combating climate change.
We’re restoring these prairies through planting native plant species and removing invasives. With each ecosystem we restore, we prevent further ecological degradation, save essential pollinators, and protect our environment for future generations!
How are you celebrating World Environment Day?
