Xerces Society for Invertebrate Conservation
Assessing bumble bees and their habitats through community science
The Xerces Society is making headway toward a healthier, more livable future for bees, butterflies, and other invertebrates that form the foundation of food chains. Day in and day out, Xerces is growing a movement of people across the country who recognize the interdependence between humans, invertebrates, and the well-being of the planet. They work with people from all walks of life to protect, manage, and restore climate-resilient habitats to support the invertebrates critical to the stability of our food webs and ecosystems.
Xerces’ programs and efforts combine the knowledge of expert scientists, the resources and capacity of government agencies, and the passion and enthusiasm of communities to achieve tangible and meaningful conservation gains. This holistic approach allows Xerces to address the multiple threats to invertebrates, including pollinators, from climate change and habitat loss to harmful pesticide use. Results to date include shaping and protecting millions of acres of climate-resilient and biodiverse lands, providing hundreds of thousands of native pollinator plants to communities, and making notable strides in securing a diverse range of pesticide policy changes. With support from the One Hive Foundation, Xerces is able to address the multiple threats to invertebrates across the country and help recover and protect the vital invertebrates essential to the success of ecosystems, agriculture, and more.
