Local plants. Specifically something that feeds a local endangered species. Pollinators are the most obvious choice. Planting wild flowers for bees would bee nice.

I remember watching rollercoaster tycoon videos about a decade ago where players could pack their parks, then have a roller coaster just plunge off the tracks taking out most of the visitors. That's how I picture a bunch of pollinators drawn to a tram track.
