Why are tallgrass prairies important?

Answer

At one point, tall grass prairies covered vast expanses of the American heartland. The productivity of the grasses led to the formation of mollisol soils, which are deep and rich in organic matter, and are the key to the fertility of "America's breadbasket".

They help sustain some of the world's oxygen and some of the insects and wildlife which is so important to human life. Tallgrass prairies are also important in keeping with the asthetic appeal to human life. Every one wants to look at that kind of thing, but nobody protects it. If we were all in a world of concrete and buildings we would die. Tallgrass is so important because it shows natural beauty in life.
