Planting Ferns at
Puget Park
Description of Issue
The way in which waste is handled currently in Seattle leads to too
many negative consequences, in part due to the amount of waste
that is produced. However, this can be generalized to most of
America as well. Some noticeable consequences include health
hazards, economic burdens and a huge contribution to climate
change.
Environmental Governance
Seattle Trails Program needs funding and volunteers. Its trail
committee is made up of only two people. This demands advocacy
solutions.
The Nature Consortium is a non-profit organization that relies heavily
upon volunteers. There needs to be greater participation and funding
to support this group.
Promoting Biodiversity
Seattle Trails Program replants ferns in the Puget Park area because,
for this climate, ferns are supposed to make up 60% of the land. This
relates to the natural abundance and spread of plant species.
