Gopherus polyphemus burrow. She is just chillin’ outside her crib waiting for the heat to subside so she can get her eat on.

We came to DC all they way from Florida to add our voice. One simple action every citizen with a yard can do to combat climate change is to get rid of their lawn. Plant native plants for your area. Trees and shrubs cool your yard and house during the summer and help keep it warmer during the winter. Saves you money and helps save the planet. An extra benefit is all the homes and food you will be providing wildlife. Here in Florida our wild areas are getting developed at an alarming pace. Help wildlife by making your yard part of a #wildlifecorridor . #epa #peoplesclimatemarch #floridawildlifecorridor #gopheruspolyphemus #gophertortoise #losethelawn #makeyouryardintoapark #makeamericawildagain #climateaction #climatemarch #climatejustice #humancausedextinction #humancausedclimatechange (at U.S. Environmental Protection Agency)
