We need to be aware of the salt we are using on the roads. As we have a long winter with lots of snow, we also use a lot of salt. This salt is getting into our groundwater and its a hazard not only to wildlife but even our domesticated pets like cats and dogs. We need to move to a natural alternative to help keep our biodiversity thriving.
We also need to be aware of the pesticides that are being used on public and private property and move towards banning these pesticides. Many wildlife species are being affected by the consumption of pesticides. We need all of our biodiversity to thrive in order for our ecosystem to be strong.
Ban the use of pesticides, herbicides and insecticides and salt. We have better, natural alternatives that need to be used now to ensure the protection of our domesticated and wildlife populations.
