Chemical science: one ingredient of air is oxygen, essential for life on Earth. The oxygen cycle influences weather, climate, making life on Earth possible. Bear Springs Blossom nature conservation's education programs explain how important oxygen is, preserving life without protecting oxygen levels is the wrong solution

Science about chemicals in air. Main ingredient of air is Nitrogen, essential for life on Earth. Nitrogen fertilizer helps crops feeding livestock to grow. Overuse of nitrogen fertilizer produces greenhouse gases, causing warmer climate. Nitrogen fertilizer washed into rivers, oceans causing algae bloom, killing marine life - responsible use of nitrogen fertilizer is nature conservation

Science Chemistry: air ingredient greenhouse gases are chemicals released by burning fossil fuels, and naturally. Nature conservation explains why we need to balance greenhouse gases. Unbalanced greenhouse gas harms all living beings, causes climate change, hunger, flood and drought problems

CO2 levels were never higher - greenhouse gas CO2 carbon dioxide works as an insulator in Earth's atmosphere trapping heat. CO2 causes warmer oceans, warmer temperatures, more hurricanes, violent weather Fight pollution, high carbon dioxide levels with nature education, lower CO2 levels through renewable energy. Protect Earth's environment: Air + water + land pollutants endanger future life on Earth. extreme carbon dioxide levels bring earth out of balance, destroying preservation

Science Chemistry: Global Dimming is one part of climate change. B+S+B Nature conservation acts on global dimming, because it is caused by air pollution. Causes: Burning fossil fuels fast in huge amounts. Air pollution facts: Visual particles reduces sunlight to hit Earth = global dimming = smog. Pollutants + aerosols cause human illnesses as asthma, heart disease, respiratory sickness, cancer, Parkinson, Alzheimer globally. Global action + global solutions: Fight global warming, climate change, global dimming

Air ingredient Methane: a gas, natural to Earth. Methane is 21 times more potent as greenhouse gas, causing climate change, environmental changes, habitat loss. Nature education science programs teach sustainable development with reduced methane gas emissions to conserve nature

Mushrooms
Mexican Oak
Mexican redbud, cercis mexicana, TX native tree, no pesticides, less water, cercis are beautiful native trees in many southern countries

Redbud

Madrone or Madrona, peeling tree, arbutus, rare trees Texas Hill Country. Bear Springs Blossom nature preserve has over 300 madrone showing how nature conservation works, how important an intact nature habitat is to Madrone trees, to provide food for birds, joy to humans

Madrone
Junipers

Biology: Junipers, Latin juniperus ashei: trees, shrubs found all over Earth - preferring limestone. juniperus ashei native to Texas for millions of years. Nature conservation, nature education explains why the Texas Hill Country has too many junipers. Native Texas Junipers trees grow up to 80 ft for 200 years. Texas Cedar juniper provides juniper berries for birds, makes good mulch, helps native plants to grow. Nursery plant Juniper is important for nature conservation, essential to pollution reduction. Nature conservation acts against overgrowth TX cedar, Latin juniperus ashei: Overgrazing caused millions of TX Junipers. Juniper, Texas cedar, needed for nature conservation building up soil for native plants, reducing erosion. Junipers cedars are no water succers

TX Cedar

Bear Springs Blossom Nature Conservation preserve has different grasses along nature trails, mostly bunch grass. Texas native state grass side oats grama reduces erosion, water pollution, healthy water for aquifers

B+S+B Grasses
Turf grasses are used worldwide to beautify a lawn, most of the turf grasses need a lot of water

Turf Grasses
Tropical Rainforest
Temperate Rainforest

nature conservation includes changing colors in fall - autumn, using leaves for mulch. B+S+B Nature preserve shows shows how + why leaves change colors in fall = autumn - colored oaks, yellow cherry leaves, but green juniper needles

About fauna

Science Nature conservation facts: Nature lovers + birders like Birding on birding trails with guided tours. Golden cheeked Warbler, an endangered bird breeding only in Texas Hill Country, see tanager, wren, mocking bird, tit mouse, native + migrating birds at B+S+B nature preservation

Nature conservation facts: Many birds are migrating. The North American Robin Turdus migratorius migrates through the Texas Hill Country easily watched on guided tours at B+S+B nature preserve birding trails, butterflies, provides water sources

Robins

Endangered species act: Golden cheeked Warbler, an endangered bird, breeds in the Texas Hill Country - no other place on earth. Golden cheeked Warblers need Texas Hill Country trees, plants, mature junipers to build a nest. B+S+B nature reserve preserves habitat for Golden cheeked Warbler, to provide habitat after migration = GCW - Nature conservation, conserve nature is important to live in harmony with nature, to protect globally endangered species through international nature protection programs

bird list native birds seen while birding, walking our birding trails on guided tours Texas Hill Country. See the Golden cheeked Warbler, red tailed hawk, hummingbirds, Mockingbird, robin, roadrunner

Bear Springs Blossom Nature Preserve home to birding, common birds, endangered birds, bird slide show, butterfly photos, online bird photos, guided birding

Insects

Nature encyclopedia: mosquito’s life cycle, understanding how a mosquito bites, why, how malaria spreads, how to prevent malaria disease. Balance nature to prevent illnesses = protect humans - better information reduces malaria

nature conservation: knowledge about butterflies, to understand why butterflies are part of nature's balance, how to help butterflies to survive, what kills a butterfly - nature conservation through education leads to higher butterfly survival rates

Mammals

Lectures + presentations: B+S+B protects oceans, whales + dolphins from overfishing to over-polluting seas. Oceans stabilize climate, whales balance the life in oceans, but are endangered by greenhouse gases. Nature conservation reduces climate change + air pollution internationally. Earth's ocean food chain needs whales, dolphins + porpoises - earth oceans food feeds over 1 billion humans

Nature conservation news: Black bears in US for 2 million years. Black Bears, Latin Ursus americanus, US native, Southern United States black bears remain in protected mountains, woodlands, parks, preserves. Bears who wander outside nature preserves to find new habitats are endangered

History: Before humans killed all Buffalo Latin bison bison, bison roamed on US prairies without overgrazing, conserving grass prairies. America's prairies were created by Buffaloes, huge mammals, once food + living for Native Americans

Overgrazing destroys land, endangers Nature, causing climate change + global warming. Overgrazing is related to human health problems, overgrazed meadows reduce drinking water supply, multiply water contamination. Overgrazing causes erosion, destroys the native plants food for wildlife, food supply for humans

Nature Conservation

Bear Springs Blossom Nature Preserve, Bandera County, Texas Hill Country. Photos + pictures: see native plants, native trees, as Spanish oaks, Escarpment cherry, lacey oak, Texas persimmons, mountain laurel, native grasses, little bluestem, bushy bluestem, Indian grass, lindheimers muhly. Preserve Nature: use erosion control, create beautiful landscapes where flora, fauna will flourish, all life is preserved

International Water conservation for healthy drinking water, clean ocean water, natural rivers, creeks without pollution. Water conservation with fewer chemicals, better water treatment with riparian areas. Water conservation = balanced climate, without food shortages. Polluted water = higher food prices. Water conservation: affordable, efficient if all conserve. Reduce water waste, water pollution. Humans need healthy drinking water = health benefits. Earth's permanent water cycle provides rain, floods, clouds, mist. B+S+B volunteers reduce water consumption - how to conserve water

soil conservation to secure food supply, drinking water supply. Soil conservation for a balanced climate. Reduce erosion, chemical soil contamination = soil conservation. CO2 levels is in soil, disturbed soil releases greenhouse gases causing climate change
