The Light Eaters: How the Unseen World of Plant Intelligence Offers a New Understanding of Life on Earth

About this event

We often recognize agency, decision making, and communication from a distinctly human perspective. However, when we examine the world of plant life, we can see that they too possess these qualities in ways that aren’t always apparent to human centric sensibilities. Through the invitation to consider the potential of plant intelligence, Zoë Schlanger offers us a new way of understanding life on earth and how plant life has evolved in conversation with its surroundings.
