Species Recovery Starts from Local Community

In Tong-Lin village, of Wufeng Township in Taichung County, the whole community has come together in order to save their ecological environment. Residents have used community development and education to bring the threat and dangers of man-made pollution on the ecology to the attention of tourists and locals alike. Tong-Lin village have cooperated with researchers from the National Taiwan Normal University to follow the species recovery situation.  Local residents have displayed great creativity in implementing this community transformation.  This has not only enhanced the community spirit but also brought about a common understanding of how to live in harmony with nature.

物種復育 社區在地做起 (by 台中公民記者 亞大觀點 )

台中縣霧峰鄉桐林村，整個社區動起來為了環境生態而努力。居民以社區教育、社區營造等方式，讓遊客與一般民眾認識人為破壞對生物造成的威脅；桐林村也與台灣師範大學研究小組合作，追蹤生態物種復育情形。社區居民發揮創意進行社區改造，不僅增進彼此情感，也能共同學習如何與大自然和平共處。
