Although science widely supports moving towards transformative change through integrating biodiversity into decision-making, and arguing for the essential role of public authorities, it falls short on suggesting specific means to that end. ...
How might we utilise the concept of botanic gardens' in urban contexts to challenge plant blindness? [0.03%]
如何利用植物园的概念来挑战城市中的“植物盲”现象?
Jasmine Daniel,Alessio Russo,Bill Burford
Jasmine Daniel
Plant blindness remains an understudied Anthropocentric concept. There is a societal naivety to the importance of plants, and lack of awareness of the human impact of plant life, which renders many 'plant blind'. This research develops a Pl...
