"Tallamy lays out all you need to know to participate in one of the
great conservation projects of our time. Read it and get started!"
--Elizabeth Kolbert, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Sixth
Extinction
Douglas W. Tallamy's first book, Bringing Nature Home, awakened
thousands of readers to an urgent situation: wildlife populations are in
decline because the native plants they depend on are fast disappearing.
His solution? Plant more natives. In this new book, Tallamy takes the
next step and outlines his vision for a grassroots approach to
conservation. Nature's Best Hope shows how homeowners everywhere can
turn their yards into conservation corridors that provide wildlife
habitats. Because this approach relies on the initiatives of private
individuals, it is immune from the whims of government policy. Even more
important, it's practical, effective, and easy--you will walk away with
specific suggestions you can incorporate into your own yard.
If you're concerned about doing something good for the environment,
Nature's Best Hope is the blueprint you need. By acting now, you can
help preserve our precious wildlife--and the planet--for future
generations.
