Biodiversity is a prevalent theme for many of the programs that the Biodiversity Project undertakes. For the first five years of the Biodiversity Project's operation, the organization's research, campaigns, and publications focused specifically on issues related to biodiversity.
In 1996 and 2002 the Biodiversity Project commissioned research to assess American perspectives on biodiversity and developed a number of publications related to this research. Read more about the following in our publications section:
- "Engaging the Public on Biodiversity: A Roadmap for Education and Communications Strategies" (August 1998)
- "Life. Nature. The Public. Making the Connection: A Biodiversity Communications Handbook" (August 1999)
- "Ethics for a Small Planet: A Communications Handbook on the Ethical and Theological Reasons for Protecting Biodiversity" (November 2002).
In addition to our publications, the Biodiversity Project produced the Five Ways to Create Healthier Homes and Habitats campaign, which identified simple, everyday actions citizens can take to protect biodiversity all over the world. These steps include purchasing local and organic foods, reducing or eliminating chemical sprays on lawns, selecting shade-grown coffee, fostering biodiversity in your backyard, and making informed choices when buying seafood.
