Monarchs have returned and are threatened by the Cold- Nonprofit hopes to help others who want to build habitats that scientists say can help.

It's winter. People are camping out on the street hoping to score their place on Colorado Blvd. for the Rose Parade. The float makers are afraid of the flowers going black.  All of California is having some city or town in the thirties.

In a year where so many people are worrying about habitat and weather impacting the population of this gorgeous insect that migrates miraculously across the swath of North America from Canada to Mexico, now a new threat cold strikes.

New Education Options, Inc. a California Educational nonprofit is working with funds to train teachers, plant gardens and supply students with materials for STEM and STEAM programs.  The nonprofit is ending 2014 with a launch of Monarch like jewelry that can raise funds for programs, supplies and overhead for other nonprofits through showing the beauty and wonder of the species hoping to be adopted by the "Wild for Monarchs" and other campaigns that will count, protect, nourish and remember this flying pollinator.

Love butterflies…..plant milkweed.  Want to buy supplies for your classroom milkweed garden project….look at the jewelry.  The butterfly is a symbol of transformation, freedom, and even used to help educate about Graves Disease.  After taking the Annenberg Foundation's Alchemy Course, Bo Lebo, Director said: "We are making beautiful art that will fit your wardrobe and help us to remember and protect the Butterfly."
