Nature's Best Hope: A New Approach to Conservation That Starts in Your Yard is a 2020 environmental nonfiction book by entomologist and conservation advocate Douglas W. Tallamy. It extends the argument of his earlier work by shifting conservation from protected parks alone to the everyday spaces people control, especially suburban and urban yards. Tallamy's central purpose is to show that biodiversity loss is not only a large-scale policy problem but also a landscape design problem shaped by lawns, ornamental exotics, pesticides, and habitat fragmentation. He proposes that ordinary homeowners can help rebuild ecological function by planting native species, reducing turf grass, and connecting yards into broader habitat networks. The book is both a critique of conventional landscaping and a practical case for grassroots conservation. Its value lies in translating ecological science into actions that are accessible, cumulative, and local.
