Ecological Restoration Practices

Ecological restoration involves restoring damaged or degraded natural environments to a healthy, functioning state. This process includes activities like planting native plants, removing invasive species, restoring soil health, and recreating natural water flows. The goal is to improve biodiversity, enhance ecosystem services such as clean water and air, and help ecosystems recover from harm caused by human activities or natural events. It requires careful planning and science-based methods to ensure the environment can support native plants and wildlife again, creating a balanced and sustainable natural area for future generations.
