為瀕危斑蝶種乳草

帝王斑蝶依靠乳草繁殖,但乳草的消失及氣候暖化令牠們的數量大減。加拿大一位12歲女生三年前開始為帝王斑蝶種植乳草,更在自己的社區分發幼苗,希望鼓勵更多人參與。

Caterpillars of Monarch butterfly mainly feed on milkweed, but the disappearance of milkweed and climate change have been reducing monarch butterfly population. A 12-year-old girl in Canada started to plant milkweed 3 years ago to help these endangered butterflies; she also distributes milkweed seedlings in her neighbourhood to encourage more people to join her.
