He was an early pioneer of the most important concept of what people can do to save the planet today...restore habitat...but the percentage of ground he actually used for plants, was way too small, and there is still a great need to understand bettter how plant communties and their co-evolved animals work together...plants don't live in isolation as specimens...they need undisturbed soil richer in life than that above the ground, they need their pollinators to not be hijacked by introduced species...relationships like that...we need more support for research in these areas, and if we are willing to work to defend the biodiversity of our homes (each of us, seeking to restore at LEAST 50-70% of every kind of habitat)...there might yet be hope for us. But it is going to take a lot of hard work...not polarization and hate. It is about our survival now, people, pay attention.
