| Abstract/Contents: | Suggests that "habitat restoration, specifically prairie restoration, suffers from a lack of understanding." Explains that "native plants on shorelines are excellent at preventing erosion due to their deep root systems. With the proper maintenance, native plants become a cost-effective permanent solution." Provides a list of potential positive aspects of native landscape restoration, including "reducing landscaping costs"; "reducing air pollution"; "reducing soil erosion"; "providing habitat for wildlife"; and "increasing biodiversity." |
