麻豆约拍

Joshua Styles finds the rest of us see weeds and moss. But its not only a beauty, he can see an environmental worth in them,that is being dangerously ignored.

Josh has loved weeds, mosses and other plants since he was a boy, turning his Mum's back garden into a haven for the type of growth the rest of us spend hours and lots of money trying to get rid of. His enthusiasm is infectious, Josh is desperate for us us all to appreciate the unloved bits of our natural world, not just because he does, but because it could help save the planet. These mosses and weeds play a massive role in sucking up carbon from the atmosphere and even provide the base for medicines used to treat some of our worst illnesses

But he argues that the Sphagnum Mosses that he talks so joyfully and passionately about arent as loved as the poster boys and girls of the environmental movement. like pandas and whales

In 'My Name Is', Josh asks whether the fauna below our feet can ever be taken as seriously if their worth to us isn't properly explained
