Botanica – Fighting fire with… flora?
Exhibition
Since the discovery of the Americas 500 years ago, new and exotic plants have been introduced across the world, causing issues ranging from the environmental to the economic.
The exhibition BOTANICA, hosted by Geneva’s botanical gardens, exposes some of these invasive neophytes, which benefit from climate change to continue their often-disastrous spread, as well as the strategies designed to defeat nature’s formidable foes.
