Abstract:

While seemingly abundant, pollinators in today's climate are faced with ever decreasing natural habitat sources. North Carolina's electric cooperatives are stemming this tide in a more positive direction in their planting of native grasses and low growing plants in co-op right-of -ways. Khalil Porter is head of environmental affairs for North Carolina's Electric-Cooperatives.
