Water, lands, and air are all connected, so the actions people take at home have far-reaching effects. People interested in helping protect water, air, and wildlife can do a variety of things: Plant native flowers, use dark-sky friendly lighting fixtures, limit or avoid fertilizer, and reduce water waste.
