Many people believe only animals are endangered. They think wild plants can just grow back after
damage. This is not true. Our plants are declining at an alarming rate. Among them are some of the most
beautiful and useful species on Earth. The importance of plants to life on Earth is immeasurable. The
landscape and wildlife we enjoy, the food we eat, even the air we breathe is connected to plant life.
Plants support wildlife. The U.S. Forest Service has stated that for every plant species that goes extinct,
up to 30 other species of plants, insects and other animals may also decline. Plants provide the food and
habitat for wildlife.
Plants support a healthy environment. They provide clean air, help hold soil in place, clean water,
moderate wind and water impacts, and shade the earth.
Plants support people. Plants give many gifts to man. They provide food, fiber, and fuels. Many plants are
known to contain chemicals that can be used to treat human illnesses. Others have the ability to fight
agricultural pests and improve existing crops.
