Abstract/Contents: | Profiles the Lake Buffers at IGM at the Habitat, a municipal golf course in Malabar, Florida which are part of the Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary Program. Addresses the benefits of these lake buffers which, enhance local biodiversity by encouraging natural plant growth, improved the water quality, reduced chemical applications, and provided additional habitat for wildlife. Discusses the education and communication that was implemented in order to make the project a success. Suggests that "our lakes are now more beautiful and diverse - they're better for wildlife, better for the environment, and better for golf." |
