Welcome to the November 22, 2016 issue of “MonarchButterfly Happenings!” newsletter! I just got an email from a new subscriber
who lives in Solon, Ohio. He wanted to know how to help the Monarch butterfly
to survive, so this issue has articles on how individuals are helping the
Monarch to survive, yard-by-yard, school-by-school, and business-by-business.
Many are helping out! Third-graders in
Westerville, Ohio became lobbyists to protect the Monarch, and waystations for
Monarchs are being planned for Arizona parks. The importance of creating a
Monarch butterfly garden in your yard and business is also explained.
I’m excited about the $89,000 grant
provided by the Fish and Wildlife Foundation. It is helping the Southwest
Monarch Study to build Monarch Waystations in Arizona’s parks. Let’s expand
this initiative! The hundreds of thousands of miles of Interstate-highway
medium strips and the millions of miles of major state highways can someday become
a nationwide grid of Monarch Waystations, a coast-to-coast system that protects
all pollinators!
