The history of humanity has been inextricably linked to the spread of introduced #species of plants and animals around the world - often unintended and with VERY mixed consequences.
Coming soon: 1st chance to review draft @IPBES #InvasiveAlienSpecies assessment
Did you know that flowers native to North Africa still grow in the ruins of the Colosseum, their seed thought to have been brought to Italy in the fur of exotic animals displayed by the Romans. A 19th century survey found 420 species of plant and 56 types of grass growing inside.
