For those of you who are wondering what you can do right now to help nature, the answer lies in your own backyard, literally.  Our guest today is Dr. Doug Tallamy.  He is an entomologist, ecologist, conservationist, and co-founder of Homegrown National Park. We'll be discussing his book, Nature's Best Hope, A New Approach to Conservation That Starts In Your Yard.  I consider Nature's Best Hope to be the way shower of how we collectively have the power to bring about a healthier planet for all.  We don't have to wait for our leaders and conservationists to find solutions to get cleaner air and water, sequester carbon, and restore ecosystems and wildlife populations.   We all have a part to play in reviving the planet, and we don't have the luxury of time to wait for just a few people to take on the heavy load of fixing the problem we currently find ourselves in.  After all, as Marshall McLuhan stated, “There are no passengers on spaceship Earth, we are all crew.”  Dr. Tallamy explains that the key to a healthier future on Earth is restoring the long-lost ecosystems of the land we live on, and it all begins by planting native plants in our yards and gardens.In this podcast, we dive into why native plants are crucial in restoring our ecosystems and wildlife populations, the importance of insects, and what this means for us and all life forms on Earth.  The future of our planet is our responsibility, and it begins with restoring our relationship with nature. Website: http://www.wildforchange.com Twitter: @WildForChange Facebook: /wildforchange Instagram: wildforchange

In this eye-opening episode of The 1000 Hours Outside Podcast, Ginny Yurich welcomes renowned entomologist and author Douglas Tallamy to help us rethink what it means to care for our yards—and our planet. Tallamy explains why America's 44 million acres of lawn are ecological dead zones, consuming billions of gallons of water, massive amounts of pesticides, and precious hours of our time—while giving almost nothing back to the environment. But there's a better way. From planting native trees like oaks to encouraging blooming plants that feed pollinators all season long, Tallamy shows how small changes in our yards can create massive ripples for biodiversity, conservation, and climate resilience. Tallamy introduces his revolutionary concept of the Homegrown National Park—a grassroots movement to convert half of America's lawns into thriving ecosystems that support insects, birds, and other wildlife right outside our windows. He shares powerful facts, practical advice, and captivating personal stories, including how thousands of caterpillars are needed to raise just one nest of chickadees and why giving kids hands-on access to nature can transform not just their health, but their ecological literacy. This episode is a call to action for families who want to turn their homes into havens—for both people and the planet. **** Get your copy of Nature's Best Hope here Learn more about Douglas Tallamy here Learn more about your ad choices.

Today we confront one of the most harrowing and consequential moments in modern history. The world has watched in horror as the brutality of October 7th has given way to even greater darkness. And now the unimaginable: Israeli children Kfir and Ariel Bibas, once held hostage by Hamas, are dead. Their fate, unconfirmed for months, was paraded in a grotesque display of inhumanity by those who revel in suffering. But what does this moment mean for Israel? For the future of the Middle East? For the very fabric of Western civilization? To answer these urgent questions, I sit down with a man who not only shaped history but understands it better than most. Ambassador David Friedman was at the heart of the Abraham Accords, forging peace where none was thought possible.Now, as the Jews fight for their survival against terror, against global antisemitism, against those who would wipe them from the map, we ask: What comes next? Will there be peace? Will Israel be forced into another cycle of war? Or will this be the moment the world finally understands that there is no compromise with evil?This is a conversation you cannot afford to miss.

On Monday's Mark Levin Show, a war needs to come to an end at some point, except for when it comes to the Jews and Israel because that is a forever war for the establishment. Israel is not allowed to win, fight back, or even try to destroy their enemies, even though it is the Biden administration that started the fire in the Middle East to begin with. World War 3 is about to break open thanks to the appeasers and sellouts in the Biden/Harris administration and the media. The Democrat party and the media are one in the same, particularly CNN and MSNBC; we don't need Democrat surrogates telling us Israel is bad when they are just trying to survive. Also, Kamala Harris is running the most disgraceful presidential campaign in American history. She is lying to the nation, especially Jews and the people of Pennsylvania, running a dishonest campaign and spending millions of dollars on propaganda ads. Later, Mark is joined by Congressman Mike Lawler (R-NY) to discuss his bill that will increase Secret Service security for Presidential candidates and the role of Congress in revoking funding to radical colleges and universities like Columbia University. Mark also speaks with former Ambassador to Israel and author David Friedman about the constant attacks that Israel faces every day by Hamas and other Iran-backed terror groups, and about his book One Jewish State: The Last, Best Hope to Resolve the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict.

Within hours of Joe Biden's announcement that he was bowing out of the presidential race Kamala Harris became the presumptive Democratic nominee. With the full weight of the Democratic party behind her and no opposition to speak of, VP Harris has been awarded the top ticket that proved so elusive to her four years ago. To her supporters, she is uniquely qualified to beat President Trump in November. Her prosecutorial debate skills, experience in the White House, and diverse background has excited voters and attracted moderates who were growing tired of Joe Biden. To her detractors, she is the same Kamala who flamed out early in the 2020 Democratic primaries, was a deeply unpopular Vice President, has an awkward stage presence, no real policy platform, and is too liberal to appeal to swing voters. In anointing Kamala Harris without any real contest, they argue, the DNC has hitched their wagon to an untested candidate who will all but guarantee a Donald Trump victory in November. Arguing in favour of the resolution is Cheri Jacobus, a nationally-recognized political strategist, pundit and writer whose podcast, Politics with Cheri Jacobus, covers all the news coming out of Washington. Arguing against the resolution is Elizabeth Nolan Brown, the Senior Editor of Reason Magazine.   The host of this Munk Debates podcast episode is Rudyard Griffiths.

Harris' legislative record might not appeal to conservatives

To the landscape designer Edwina von Gal, gardening is much more than just seeding, planting, weeding, and watering; it's her life calling. Since starting her namesake firm in 1984 in East Hampton, on New York's Long Island, she has worked with, for, and/or alongside the likes of Calvin Klein, Larry Gagosian, Frank Gehry, Maya Lin, Annabelle Selldorf, Richard Serra, and Cindy Sherman, creating gardens that center on native species and engage in other nature-based land-care solutions. In 2008, von Gal founded the Azuero Earth Project in Panama to promote chemical-free reforestation with native trees on the Azuero Peninsula. Stemming out of this initiative, in 2013, she then founded the Perfect Earth Project to promote chemical-free, non-agricultural land management in the U.S. Her most recent effort, Two Thirds for the Birds, is a call-to-action to plant more native plants and eliminate pesticides, thus creating a greater food supply for birds.On the episode, she discusses the meditative qualities of gardening; reframing landscaping as “land care”; and why she sees herself not as a steward of land, but rather as a collaborator with it.Special thanks to our Season 9 presenting sponsor, L'École, School of Jewelry Arts.Show notes:Edwina von Gal[15:32] William Cronon[15:32] Changes in the Land[15:32] Tiokasin Ghosthorse[24:04] Carl Sagan[24:04] The Demon-Haunted World[26:07] Perfect Earth Project[40:37] Two Thirds for the Birds[42:41] John Fitzpatrick[42:41] Cornell Lab of Ornithology[42:41] Merlin Bird ID[47:01] Garden Club of America[50:21] Diana Vreeland[51:09] Peter Sharp[51:09] Channel Gardens at Rockefeller Center[54:46] Frank Gehry[54:46] Biomuseo[54:46] Bruce Mau[56:32] Azuero Earth Project[1:00:37] Doug Tallamy[1:02:01] Nature's Best Hope[1:05:12] The High Line[1:05:12] Brooklyn Bridge Park[1:05:12] The Battery Conservancy[1:05:12] Brooklyn Museum

Rushkoff discusses the easiest, funnest, and most likely path to averting apocalypse.

 It's totally normal to feel lost at times. The question is, where do you turn to find your direction? Come hear the really good news about a God who searches for the lost, provides direction, meaning, and restores hope.

Negative self-talk, destructive habits, and even run-of-the-mill anxiety keep most of us feeling imprisoned. Jesus says life can be different. Come learn what real freedom looks like, and how to walk in it.

The numbers are startling – 45% of all flowering plants are at risk of extinction. Did you know that replacing part of your lawn with native plants can create a sanctuary for local wildlife and support our planet's biodiversity? This week on the podcast, Dr. Quave speaks with Dr. Doug Tallamy,  New York Times bestselling author of “Nature's Best Hope” and founder of The Homegrown National Park. They delve into why native plants are essential for a healthy environment, how insects play a crucial role in our ecosystems, and offer practical steps individuals can take to enhance biodiversity in their neighborhoods.  #biodiversity #insects #planetaryhealth #nativeplants #podcast

In this episode with award-winning author and journalist Alan Weisman, we discuss his 2013 book Countdown: Our Last, Best Hope for a Future on Earth? capturing his journey to over 20 countries over five continents to ask what experts agreed were probably the most important questions on Earth, and also the hardest. ‘How many humans can the planet hold without capsizing?' This wide-ranging and immensely stimulating interview captures how growth-biased cultures, religions, nationalities, tribes, and political systems are collectively undermining our ability to live within planetary limits, and also offers inspiring examples of people finding ways of better balancing our needs with those of the planet's and humanity's future - examples which could provide ways of imagining how we might better get through this bottleneck century. We discuss the intended and unintended consequences of the Green Revolution which pushed us grossly beyond Earth's carrying capacity, while causing irreparable harm to natural ecosystems. Weisman unpacks the ethnic, religious, and political complexities and history of the Israel-Palestine conflict and how pronatalism and ecological overshoot factor into it. We also chat about some of the most successful family planning programs across the world, such as in Iran, Thailand, and Costa Rica, as well as outliers with the worst programs, including in China and India. The controversial role of the Catholic Church in pushing for large families not just across the West, but also in Africa, as well as in shunning the population conversation in environmental conferences, is also highlighted.

Garden for Wildlife is an e-commerce business that simplifies the process of learning about and purchasing native plants for customers' yards. Founder Shubber Ali shares his personal journey from a career in management consulting to becoming passionate about gardening and the environment after reading a book called "Nature's Best Hope." This book highlighted the issue of native plants being replaced by invasive species, leading to a decline in pollinators and birds. Shubber's mission with Garden for Wildlife is to educate people and make native plants accessible, aiming to restore natural habitats and support wildlife. Shubber emphasizes the importance of native plants and compares the growing interest in them to the rise of organic and non-dairy products in mainstream stores. He encourages people to start small in their own yards to see the positive impact on local wildlife. Shubber Ali highlights the benefits of exposure to nature for mental and physical health, referencing the book "The Nature Fix" and the concept of forest bathing. Shubber also addresses the critical role of insects, particularly pollinators like bees, in our environment and food production, emphasizing the alarming decline of native bee species. Garden for Wildlife, his company, aims to address these issues by making native plants accessible, creating habitats, and educating the public. They've expanded to 41 states and are working on localizing plant production to reduce carbon footprint and support local growers. Shubber's passion for the environment is evident as he discusses the interconnectedness of various environmental issues and the simple, actionable steps individuals can take to make a difference. We discussed the business and environmental strategies of Garden for Wildlife. Shubber Ali emphasizes the importance of applying business acumen to environmental issues and describes the company's innovative crowdfunding campaign, which allows customers to become investors. The campaign also encourages the distribution of native plants through gift cards, aiming to increase biodiversity and support wildlife. Additionally, Shubber outlines the company's new platform for not-for-profits, which helps them raise funds through an affiliate program. Garden for Wildlife is expanding its reach through partnerships with retail chains and aims to sign up growers on the West Coast to cover all 48 states. The overarching goal is to promote the planting of native plants globally, starting with a focus on the U.S. and Canada.

Douglas Tallamy, Chair of the Department of Entomology and Wildlife Ecology, University of Delaware Any hunter, angler and/or student of the natural world is bound to be more than a little gobsmacked by the rate of development and growth that we see all around us: Bozeman, Atlanta, Boise, Moab, Salt Lake City, Huntsville, Austin, the Gulf Coast, Phoenix, Chattanooga, Asheville and beyond. Is there any hope for the wild places and the world we love? Hell, yes there is. And it will be done by each and every one of us – yard by yard, deck by deck, square foot by square foot. The possibilities are endless. Doug Tallamy, of the Homegrown National Park  movement is the author of Nature's Best Hope (with a companion volume for younger readers and Bringing Nature Home.
