Plant Blindness: How to put plants back in the picture
On Plant Appreciation Day, 2021 join us, the Linnean Society and an expert panel as we try to understand our increasing disconnection from plants all around us and confront our ‘Plant Blindness’. We are surrounded by plants. We bring them into our homes, our bedrooms. We put their images on our walls, we wear them as jewellery. And this is not even accounting for how deeply our survival depends on plants. And yet, we overlook them. This tendency of failing to notice them or appreciate their importance has been termed “plant blindness,” a term proposed 20 years ago.
