An Aromatic Life No Place for Plants - The Children's Book That Meets The Moment with Dr. Kelly Ablard
#108: In this episode, Frauke sits down with Dr. Kelly Ablard to talk about their new children's picture book No Place for Plants. The co-authors share how they conceived of writing the book, what the catalysts were that inspired them, and why the book meets the moment we find ourselves in. They explain why conservation and smelling are a perfect pair to encourage both child and adult to be more aware, get inspired, take action, and ultimately advocate for the plants. They discuss the concepts of Plant Awareness Disparity (PAD), Nature Deficit Disorder, Cultural Sustainability, Grammar of Animacy and Oneness, each of which were central elements of the book. Furthermore, they talk about the importance of community gardens and why it's so critical that we all identify as Naturalists.
