A
Collaborative
Rotary Project




HERE’S HOW TO JOIN





WHAT IS OPERATION POLLINATION?

Operation Pollination is an inclusive partnership project initiated by
announcing a simple POLLINATOR RESOLUTION.

The project is achieved by recruiting a diverse array of partners to engage in
pollinator habitat restoration or education activities by signing a simple
POLLINATOR PLEDGE form.



Any organization can get involved in Operation Pollination and it doesn’t cost
anything to join the cause, aside from the time and resources you devote to
achieving your pollinator project.  If you need guidance or advice, please
contact us.




OUR PURPOSE

Operation Pollination recognizes the importance of pollinator habitat both
restored and maintained on public and private lands.  Through collaboration and
outreach, an interconnected mosaic of pollinator habitat interspersed between
public and private land will be developed to stabilize and/or increase
populations of pollinator species throughout your project area.

In June of 2020 the Rotary International Board of Directors and the The Rotary
Foundation Trustees added “supporting the environment” as the 7th Area of
Focus.  The Environmental Sustainability Rotary Action Group (ESRAG) provided
both the documentation and the leadership in this effort, and is a partner
in Operation Pollination, embracing the effort as an ESRAG Project.

WHY GET INVOLVED?

Pollinators around the world are in steep decline.  This decline is so much more
than a national conservation issue.  It is a global conservation issue and
priority project.  Causes of pollinator decline include habitat loss, a changing
environment, pesticides, and parasites.  While some of the solutions to
pollinator decline require government action, many do not.  That’s where Rotary
comes in.  With more than one million Rotarians across the globe, can you
imagine the significant impact that Rotary clubs can have on improving local
pollinator habitat?  The project described in this web site, Operation
Pollination, will allow you and your club to easily get involved in a “make a
difference” pollinator project.


HOW CAN YOU GET INVOLVED?

Leaders and partners are needed to join this effort now.  Pollinators are
declining.  Please don’t wait to take positive action.  Now is the time for you
and your organization or business to get involved.  If you are with a Rotary
District or Club, the very first step is to identify the position in your club
that appropriately takes this project on.  It might be your Rotary Foundation
board position, the community service committee, whomever you see as the
appropriate champion.  Then just follow the Three Easy Steps listed above to
join the Operation Pollination project.  If you are not a Rotarian, you can
still get involved. Decide who your leader is and just follow the Three Easy
Steps.  Please contact us with any questions you have.  We are happy to help you
step forth on your Operation Pollination journey.








NEED A PROJECT?

Create a community pollinator garden; partner with your schools to create an
education program; encourage members to plant pollinator–friendly plants in
their homes and work space; have someone speak to your club about the issue;
raise funds to support habitat restoration.

MEET THE POLLINATORS

There are many different pollinator species located throughout the United States
and the world.  Bees, wasps, ants, butterflies, moths, beetles, flies — even
some birds and bats! — pollinate flowers. Everyone can and should be involved in
this environmental issue affecting the whole planet. Pick a pollinator or
pollinators to emphasize and begin your project today!




WHY ARE POLLINATORS IMPORTANT?




 * Do you like to eat?
   
   One out of every three bites of food you eat exists because of the efforts of
   pollinators, including many fruits, vegetables, and seeds. Pollinators not
   only are necessary for our own food, but support the food and habitat of
   animals.



 * Do you like clean air?
   
   Healthy ecosystems depend on pollinators. About 90 percent of all the
   flowering plants on earth are pollinated by insects and animals! — plants
   which help stabilize our soils, clean our air, supply oxygen, and support
   wildlife.



 * Do you want a healthy economy?
   
   In the United States alone, pollination by honey bees contributed to over $19
   billion of crop production in 2010, while pollination by other insect
   pollinators contributed to nearly $10 billion of crop production.
