About this listen
Are grass lawns holding us back from real climate solutions? In this episode of Naked Sustainability, Ginny dives deep into how turf grass became a biodiversity dead zone—and why swapping it for native plants, pollinator patches, and even container gardens can restore ecosystems, support wildlife, and fight climate change. Whether you’ve got a backyard, balcony, or just a sunny windowsill, you’ll walk away with accessible ways to boost biodiversity right at home. We’ll talk native plant benefits, simple habitat upgrades, and how individual action connects to climate resilience and environmental justice.
✨ Topics covered:
• Why traditional lawns harm biodiversity
• How native plants support pollinators, birds & soil health
• Climate benefits of ditching turf grass
• Easy ideas for yards, balconies & containers
• Overcoming HOA or rental limitations
• The power of small-scale ecosystem restoration
