Steph's Reflection
This field trip was very eye opening. It felt weird killing off so many living things, but it was nice to know that by getting rid of the invasive plants, we can help good and healthy ones grow. It's very rewarding to know all our cuts, bruises, and sore backs resulted in a more beautiful place. Ecology restoration is a strange concept because killing one thing to help another grow seems wrong, but it's still very necessary. Considering Mother Nature takes a long time to do the restoration process herself, we need to help speed up this process as much as we can to help many other organisms that benefit from this be able to live. It takes a lot of work and time, but it's more efficient than if we let it do it itself. Being able to have good plants brings back their native animals that can help with the cycle of life. However, sometimes the restoration takes too long even with human help, so it can be destructive and not as helpful as people would like it to be. Over all, ecology restoration is a very good thing for our environment since it helps animals and plants be able to survive sooner rather than later making the world a more beautiful place to be in.
