protecting the locals means protecting the environment!! The overdevelopment of FL is threatening species like the barn owl, loss of habitat is one of the biggest factors of their declining populations. Florida please stop cutting down mature trees!! Plant native species and coexist instead of against nature.

It does feel bleak sometimes to think that people still continue to deny the climate crisis 😞 Get out in nature, use your PUBLIC land and educate yourself on the environment. Tomorrow is earth day, but we should be having these conversations and celebrating earth every day.
