Without plants, people could not live. We eat plants. We breathe the oxygen that plants produce. And we need plants for another, very differen reason: we need them for their beauty.
Imagine a world with no plants. Imagine no flowers with their sweet smells, their beautiful colours and their lovely shapes. Imagine, when the wind blows, not being able to hear the leaves in the trees or watch the branches swing from side to side. Imagine not being able to see the buds on the trees open and turn to colourful blossom.Перевод:Без растений люди не могли бы жить. Мы едим растения. Мы вдыхаем кислород, который вырабатывают растения. И еще нам нужны растения по совершенно другой причине: нам они нужны из-за их красоты.
Представьте себе мир без растений. Представьте, что нет цветов и их приятного запаха, их красивых расцветок и прекрасных форм. Представьте, что когда дует ветер, вы не сможете услышать шелеста листьев на деревьях, не увидите, как качаются ветки из стороны в сторону. Представьте, что не сможете увидеть, как открываются почки на деревьях и начинают красочн цвести.
