Yesterday I was at a training thing and I learned that many of the remnant, isolated portions of vegetation of extreme conservation importance that remain on private land here do so as a result of farmers’ wives. As in, they forbade their husbands to clear them (and up to like 100 years ago) – “if I come back from the shops and you’ve bulldozed that, I’m leaving.”

Grassroots activism.
