Gardening into the Future: Climate Adaptation in Your Yard: Many climate change solutions require huge shifts by governments and corporations for a Just Transition to non-polluting fuels, but there are positive, impactful actions you can take in your own garden and community. Gardening into the Future: Climate Adaptation in Your Yard offers concrete, achievable, science-based means to use your own garden for carbon sequestration, food security, plant and animal habitat, and increased resilience to extreme weather and other climate change events. 

Leah Halper is a Master Gardener and Garden Sense consultant who helps Sonoma County residents transition their yards to use less water and support more beneficial plants and animals. She is also a UCANR-trained Climate Steward with special interest in resilience food gardening, carbon sequestration, and preserving habitat for plant and animal species at risk.
