In this episode of The Sean Trace Show, I had the honor of speaking with Dr. Doug Tallamy, a leading entomologist and ecologist who's changing the way we see our backyards. We explored why insects are absolutely essential to life on Earth, how lawns are destroying biodiversity, and what each of us can do to make a difference, starting with our own homes. Dr. Tallamy shared powerful insights about native plants, the food web, and how we can all become part of what he calls a “Homegrown National Park.” This conversation left me inspired and reminded me that even small steps can create huge change. If you’ve ever wondered how to help the planet, this episode will show you where to start.
