Travel and Discover Nature On The Green Track

Fifth episode in Season II 👌

*About the episode

For this episode we will explore the tendency of wanting to connect and discover nature when we travel. But what is nature and how does tourism marketing influence our way of perceiving nature as something "outside" of ourselves?

Our travel partner for this destination is plant biologist and professor at Copenhagen University Michael Palmgren who after collecting plants as a child learned to identify and hence understand the complexities of these life forms.
This became not only Michael Palmgren's field of research but also his mission to communicate and spread the learnings about plants as advanced and complex forms of living.

This conversation for our 11th. Episode goes into many directions as it meditates upon the question of: why are many of us today so disconnected from what we are made of?
