(FAO)* — Plants aren’t just a nice addition to your windowsill: they are the source of 98 percent of the air we breathe and 80 percent of the food we eat. Sadly, we often forget how much we owe them. Neglecting plant health can have devastating results, not just for plants themselves, but also for humans and our environment.

Their stories paint a gripping picture of how COVID-19 has affected the world of work and what the response has been.
