Reconsider your lawn. Many people do not realize that they are contributing to a monoculture in a major way; by having a grass lawn.[3] Many people like having a large grassy area that is fairly easy to maintain and offers a nice place for children and pets to play. However, by maintaining a grassy lawn, you are choosing to exclude other types of plants.[4]
Consider converting a portion of your grassy lawn into a more diverse area by planting a flower or vegetable garden, trees, or a variety of bushes.
