What is a Bioregion, and why do they matter?

What the heck is a bioregion, what does that mean and why does it matter? Well, I’ll tell ya, because thinking bioregionally is a key component of recognizing the ground underneath your feet and the role it plays in the broader systems of earth to create a better future for us all. A bioregion is an area of land that is defined by physical properties or boundaries like coastline and mountain ranges that contain a similar mix of biota, or plant and animal species throughout, and interdependent hydrological patterns of flow that unites the region. No matter where on this planet you live, you are part of a bioregion, and what happens in one part of the world has literal trickle down impacts to another, and beyond into the oceans that unite all these different bioregions. Everything is interconnected beyond our myopic, linear way of human-thinking, and once you’re able to see this, it affects your values and thus the choices you make. From big to small, every choice we make and actions we take impacts those around us, and thinking bioregionally allows one to realize that many of the issues we talk about in silos are not limited to one little region or community, that they have bigger cross-border implications that impact the quality of lives we all live. Thinking at a bioregional scale helps contain and quantify the impact one has as a stepping stone to thinking about our global impact. It put our actions into perspective so that we can make changes that when compounded, really can make a difference. Support people and businesses in your bioregion that operate with the health of both their and your communities in mind, take action against developments that threaten the interconnections you rely on, and let’s work to break down those arbitrary lines of division to realize that at the end of the day, we’re all in this together.
