It doesn't matter whether you live in a small African village, or you live in a big city, everything comes back to plants in the end: whether it's for the food, the medicine, the fuel, the construction, the clothing, all the obvious things; or whether it's for the spiritual and recreational things that matter to us so much; or whether it's soil formation, or the effect on the atmosphere, or primary production.
不管你是住在非洲的一个小村庄， 还是住在一个大城市里， 最终一切都会追溯到植物。 不管是食物、药物、 燃料、建筑、衣服，所有显而易见的东西， 或精神上的或娱乐上的， 这些对我们来说是非常重要的东西， 又或者是土壤的形成， 或者对大气的影响， 或者初级生产。
