Invasive non-native species (INS) are found in every city, but their impacts in urban settings as biological agents of visual pollution that block views of natural landscapes and disconnect citizens make them ideal candidates for aspects of Civic Ecology Practice, where local environmental stewardship action is taken to enhance green infrastructure and community well-being in urban and other human-dominated systems.
Dr. Rebecca Dolan (Butler Univerty/ROW Ecology co-chair), Kelly Harris (ROW Consultant) and Mark Adler (KIB/Pogue’s Run Co-Chair) walk you through the process of removing 760 m3 of Amur bush honeysuckle from 30 acres of land along Fall Creek as part of the Lilly Global Day of Service.
