This article is an introduction to a series of articles about important ecosystems; actually, writing this article is what inspired the series I am now starting. Next week, I will write an article on the role of wetlands in ocean health. In upcoming weeks I will also write about the importance of prairie grass and how alternative fuel research might be playing a role in protecting our country's amber waves of grain.

To read more about alternatives to herbicides and pesticides, check out this article at the BellaOnline Landscaping site:
