A wildflower also wild flower is a flower that grows wild, meaning it was not intentionally seeded or planted. Wildflower meadows are mostly men made, but in same places Nature provided us with this treat.
The term "wildflower" is found in many languages, for example Germany has the word "Wildblumen". Wildflower are neither a hybrid nor a selected cultivar - it appears in the wild as a native plant.
Scientists do not like the term wildflower and generally try to be more specific - the latin names for our wildflowers are used all over Earth and make it much easier to talk about the same plant species.

Using less water puts less pressure on sewage treatment facilities, uses less energy for water heating. Saving water saves energy. Energy used is for pumping, treating water. Using less hot water saves on water heating. Saving energy and using alternative energy saves water. Electricity production from fossil fuels, nuclear energy is responsible for 39% of all freshwater withdrawals in the U.S. Humans need water - drinking water has health benefits - earth has a permanent water cycle. Water Pollution reduces drinking water supply

Pollution
fight global pollution. Work with us on better air quality, better water quality, healthy rivers + ocean protection. Lower pollution with efficient home appliances, less energy waste, less water waste. Reduce air and water pollution with recycling, green driving. Get answers to all pollution environmental issues
global warming + climate change are caused by burning fossil fuels, causing pollution - it took millions of years to produce fossil fuels, but humans burn fossil fuels in two centuries - Global warming is caused by air pollution. Results of global warming are violent weather with hurricanes, world wide floods, low air quality, tsunamis, human illnesses
CO2 levels were never higher - CO2 carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas - an aerosol that works as an insulator in Earth's atmosphere trapping heat. CO2 causes warmer oceans, warmer temperatures, more hurricanes, violent weather Fight pollution and high carbon dioxide levels with nature education, lower CO2 levels with the use of renewable energy. Protect our environment: Air + water + land pollutants endanger our future
Dioxin and furans are highly toxic poisonous chemicals released by burning fossil fuels and plastic. Dioxins harm all living beings, can cause cancer, skin problems, birth defects
Cap and trade - governments try to reduce emissions to reduce the effects of climate change caused by burning fossil fuels with a regulatory system called cap and trade. With cap and trade emissions or hazardous air pollution shall be capped - certificates can be traded to lower the output of power plants and factories. Air pollution is causing global warming with violent weather, with hurricanes, world wide floods, tsunamis. Low air quality causes human illnesses as asthma, heart disease, respiratory sickness, cancer, Parkinson, Alzheimer

Hydrogen - a gas that burns ultra violet, oxidizes with ozone to water - used in fuel cells it is clean energy without changing our climate, hydrogen part of life
geothermal energy uses the heat of the earth to lower our energy costs, heating houses, offices
Biomass - material from former living plants decaying giving warmth or energy without putting the carbon cycle out of balance
Fuel cells are chemical devices that react with different chemicals. Hydrogen fuel cells deliver electricity and produce water no greenhouse gases without putting earth carbon cycle out of balance
