ABSTRACT

We all live within the landscape. In urban and suburban areas this may not be as apparent, with our buildings and streets obscuring our comprehension of how the land once looked and functioned. Many of us may have, or will someday have, a small piece of this landscape within our care. It may not seem significant, but collectively how we think about and manage these small pieces of land can have a big impact on the landscape, the region, and the world.
