Why it's important

Biodiversity facilitates healthy ecosystems, and healthy ecosystems increase many of the natural services we rely on; including clean water, air, healthy soil and diversity of food sources.

As city landscapes grow, available green spaces are decreasing - biodiversity levels are dropping and many plant and animal species that we rely on are losing their homes.

Backyard biodiversity

Biodiversity can do great things in your backyard.

Urban backyards large or small can help increase levels of biodiversity, wildlife species and support healthy ecosystems with just a few select garden choices.
