Plants to the rescue!

Baliga, Vikram2023
Book
In the ongoing fight against climate change, plastic pollution and diseases, scientists are turning to an unlikely ally - plants! Everyone knows plants are pretty cool. They create oxygen for us to breathe (fairly essential) and provide us with trees to climb. But it turns out that plants can do a whole lot more than that too! Get ready to be amazed when you find out about the spinach that can detect landmines and send emails and the glow-in-the-dark plants that might one day light your home. Perfect for anyone who loves nature and wildlife, as well as the scientists of the future - you won't look at plants and trees in the same way again!
