America's roadsides offer millions of miles of opportunity for healthy, pesticide-free habitat, rich in native wildflowers in long, CONNECTED corridors. However, historically, for safety and aesthetic reasons, those roadsides have been heavily mowed and sprayed.

With growing awareness of how threatened and important pollinators are both to human food security and planetary resilience, many roadside managers are considering management changes that would address safety, and result in even more aesthetically pleasing roadsides while providing vital food and shelter for pollinators. In many cases, these new management practices could even save money!

The recent announcement of the nation's first pollinator highway is a great example. Remarkably, both Colorado's House and Senate passed the resolution unanimously to designate Highway 76 from the Nebraska state line to Arvada, Colorado, the "Colorado Pollinator Highway."

Last year, the North American Pollinator Protection Campaign launched an award to bring attention to roadside managers who are committed to pollinator conservation. Nominations for the NAPPC Roadside Managers Award are due by June 26, 2017.  Anybody can nominate a government transportation agency including the agency itself. We hope to receive lots of nominations that will showcase the transition in roadside management occurring around the country and inspire other roadside managers to explore their own opportunities to be pollinator conservationists.

Good Day, My name is Mrs. Amanda Jacob i am a citizen of the United State
of America i want to testify of the good Loan Lender who showed light to me
after been scammed by 4 different Internet international lender, they all
promise to give me a loan after making pay alot of fees which yield nothing
and amounted to no positive result. i lost my hard earn money and it was a
total of 8,000USD. One day as i was browsing through the internet looking
forsterated when i came across a testimony man who was also scammed and
eventually got linked to a legit loan company called Mr.Trust Loan Lender (
trustloanlender36@gmail.com ) where he finally got his loan, so i decided to
contact the same loan company and then told them my story on how i have
been scammed by 4 different lenders who did nothing but to course me more
pain. I explain to the company by mail and all they told me was to cry no
more because i will get my loan in their company and also i have made the
right choice of contacting them. i filled the loan application form and
proceeded with all that was requested of me and I was given a loan amount
of $600,000.00 Dollars by this great Company (Mr.Trust Loan Lender} managed
by Mr Mr. Trust and here i am today happy with my family because Mr. Trust
Loan Lender has given me a loan so i made a vow to my self that i will keep
testifying on the internet on how i got my loan. Do you need a loan
urgently? kindly and quickly contact Mr. Trust Loan Lender now for your
loan via email: ( trustloanlender36@gmail.com ) i believe other people are
also giving testimony on this same honest lender.

Here is my personal Email if you have any question to ask me:
