This is my loggery. In it's second year of helping the local wildlife. It has everything from early spring bulbs to fall bloomers. Logs and bark pieces for critters to make homes. As many pollinator flowers as I can smoosh in there. I add to it, but mostly let it grow wild.

This is the best tl;dr I could make, original reduced by 89%. (I'm a bot)
> "Climate disruption causing a widespread loss of nectar and pollen is plausible as a significant factor in the alarming decline of pollinators in Europe," he said.
> The global warming threat to pollinators was formally recognized by the European Commission in a proposal adopted on June 1 to try to stop the pollinator decline.
> About 80 percent of all wild plants rely on insect pollinators, and the majority of food crops benefit from them, according to the European Commission report.
> Avoiding the global warming train wreck for pollinators requires making sure there is enough connected habitat enabling insects populations to migrate with climate change, Black said.
> In a chapter of a recent book on climate change and pollinators, he points out that there will be insect winners and losers.
> Many insects can adapt to a different food source if one particular plant is not available, and plants can adapt to new pollinators, he said.
