Why I love this solution: I love this solution because it is a project in which everyone wins. It is a positive feedback loop. Generous people from all over the world donate funds to plant trees and install wildlife bridges and kind-hearted people open the doors of their homes for us to come and make their properties more friendly to wildlife. It connects habitats and neighbors and facilitates the peaceful coexistence of wildlife and people.
