What is a plant?
A scientist would use this explanation:
A plant is a living organism of the kind exemplified by trees, shrubs, herbs, grasses, ferns, and mosses. It grows typically in a permanent site, absorbing water and inorganic substances through its roots, and synthesizing nutrients in its leaves by photosynthesis using the green pigment chlorophyll.

And God saw Creation was good

protect HIS creation is a slogan we use to protect nature, all living beings, our oceans, our forests, all animals - and God saw creation was good - we work hard to protect HIS creation

Noah found praise in the eyes of the Lord. Work with BSB to preserve HIS creation, protect nature, all living beings, oceans, our forests, all animals - and God saw creation was good - we work hard to protect HIS creation

CO2 levels were never higher - CO2 carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas - an aerosol that works as an insulator in Earth's atmosphere trapping heat. CO2 causes warmer oceans, warmer temperatures, more hurricanes, violent weather - Bear Springs Blossom Nature Conservation fights pollution and high carbon dioxide levels with nature education and the use of renewable energy. We have to protect lake water rivers and oceans. We have to take action to protect the future of the next generation by lowering CO2 levels

Keep Earth Beautiful - learn how to Live in harmony with Nature

Mexico environmental problems include not enough affordable nature conservation education to expand food production

Spain offers to little conservation education courses

Indonesia cuts down a lot of tree. Missing nature conservation education leads to deforestation, water contamination, erosion problems because of deforestation, endangering marine life and humans

China has a growing population, more energy, more food, nature conservation education is very low on the to do list

German schools offer conservation education, but a lot of people are too busy to learn new things

Education reserves

BSB members strongly believe that Conservation Education CE is the only solution to give the majority of human beings a better life on Earth.
