Comment: Plants will be central to how we lessen the impact of climate change

We hear much about the urgent need to save the koala as it possibly heads towards extinction – and yes, this is essential and critical.that is a member of a unique evolutionary lineage would be a disaster and reflect very poorly on our stewardship of the planet. Occasionally, there is discussion around protecting the koala’s habitat – but done in a vague nebulous way that doesn’t really imply what it is.

Research has shown that we may notice koalas, but most people don't notice the trees which provide them an environment in which to live. lants. We appear to be hard-wired to care more about our furry and feathered friends than the “green wallpaper” that they live in. I have noticed even the most ardent botanist or horticulturist getting far more excited with a new sighting of a bird or mammal on field trips or in the gardens than they do about the plants around them.
