The UN has warned that in order to have viable future, we must address the 5 horsemen of the biodiversity crisis. Most of us are familiar with the first four of the horsemen: land use change, over exploitation of species, climate change, and pollution. But less well know is the fifth horseman: invasive species.
Very interesting article Pru. Peter and I were going around our yard counting the culprits we have. To namd a just a few, we have Knotweed, bamboo, english ivy, poison ivy. they are all so freaking hard to eliminate. I hope your round up experiments works. I think Peter tried the cut and paint round up method on our knotweed to limited success. Thanks for writing.
