#RiparianBuffers are essential "commons," tho we can create them with #ConservationEasements. Communities are essential. Some regenerative farming is feasable, but forwilded, they also provide ecological corridors and refugia to counter fragmentation and climate "damming" north/south.

Tackling climate change is vital to protect the future for migratory fish, & all sorts of wild creatures. And the care we take of rivers can help to shield them from the worst effects, while sequestering carbon in woodland & wetlands which, in turn, shelter even more wildlife. 8/8

Anybody on here from
#natureconservancy in #Delaware Maybe you can make arrangements to get cuttings from our American elm from 1849 that was damaged by recent #tornado in #DoverDE? #tree #hardwoods #riparianbuffers #RachelCarson #globalwarming solutions www.nature.org/en-us/what-w...
American Elm: Restoring the Iconic Tree for Healthy Floodplains
Before disease brought them down, American elms had a firm place on streets and floodplains. Breeding survivor trees may show the way for restoring them.

Albemarle County is set to strengthen its riparian buffer protections, ensuring 100-foot buffers on perennial streams and clearer guidelines for landowners to safeguard our water resources!

Planning commission backs stronger riparian buffer protections, asks staff for clearer guidance and outreach
The commission voted to recommend zoning text amendments that move riparian buffer protections from the Water Protection Ordinance into the zoning code countywide, keeping 100‑foot buffers on perennial streams and adding clearer mitigation procedures and special‑exception standards; staff will refine survey standards, planting ratios and implementation guidance before the Board hearing.

Riparian buffers are a natural way to reduce, pollution entering our waterways. These stream side buffers reduce erosion, filter pollutants, provide habitat, promote ecological diversity, absorb flood waters and so much more.
