How to help your garden withstand #ClimateChange #HealthySoils and diverse, perennial plants can help your garden beds survive #ExtremeWeather like #floods and #droughts. March 13, 2026 "The days are getting longer, and spring is around the corner. For many home gardeners, it’s a time of hope and anticipation. "So it’s the perfect time to plan how to help your flower beds thrive as climate change brings more extreme and unpredictable weather. "Marsden: 'Flooding, droughts, heat, cold, all the extreme weather we’re seeing is going to impact plants.' "That’s Christy Marsden of the University of Minnesota #ClimateAdaptation Partnership. "She says one of the most important things you can do is get your soil tested and then take steps to improve your soil health – for example, by adding #compost. Healthier soil retains more water during droughts, and it’s less likely to erode during heavy storms. "Marsden also suggests growing a wider mix of flowers than you might have grown before, with varieties that thrive in a range of conditions. "And she recommends relying more on perennial plants, which come back every year, and less on annuals. Marsden: “Perennials are more able to withstand some of those extremes because they have deeper roots. They’re more established.” "So while climate change is a challenge, she says by being flexible and trying new things, you can still grow a beautiful garden in a warming world."

📰 Sheep Are Helping Volkswagen Turn a Solar Farm into a Living Ecosystem 🐑 Poland: A flock of 100 sheep now grazes beneath 31,000 solar panels at VW’s Poznań plant, replacing mechanical mowing while improving soil, vegetation, and habitat quality. 🔆 The project is a large‑scale agrivoltaics experiment, pairing renewable energy with agriculture to boost biodiversity, reduce heat stress, and create cooler microclimates under the panels. 🤝 Researchers are tracking animal welfare, soil health, vegetation shifts, and insect habitat, showing how industrial solar sites can double as ecological corridors when managed thoughtfully. 🔗 https://electrek.co/2026/07/08/volkswagen-put-100-sheep-to-work-under-31000-solar-panels/ #SolarPunkSunday #Rewilding #Agrivoltaics #LandscapeEcology #RenewableEnergy #Biodiversity #SoilHealth #PollinatorHabitat #Sustainability #HabitatRestoration

Every plastic bottle thrown from a moving vehicle doesn't disappear—it pollutes our land, clogs drainage systems, harms wildlife, and contaminates our environment for generations. Dispose of plastic responsibly by using bins or recycling. A small act of care today protects the future we all share. 🌍♻️ #environment #climate #nature #biodiversity #wastemanagement #soilhealth #biodiversity #ecology #ecosystem #wildlife #photography #planet #earth #mastodon #pollution #climatechange #linux
