Restore biodiversity: connect nature areas in South Limburg
|
For a fundraising campaign of the Wageningen University Fund I illustrated the biodiversity goals of the nature in Zuid-Limburg, Netherlands.
"Dutch nature is fragmented: protected Natura2000 areas and pieces of forest or grassland, heath or marsh, enclosed in between residential areas and intensive agriculture. This fragmentation prevents animals from moving freely and plants from growing in places where they would naturally do so. As a result, plant and animal species are becoming less and less common in these areas because they can no longer reproduce properly, and eventually die out locally. This is serious, because biodiversity is fundamental to, for example, our food, clean air and good soil quality. " |
