The latest scientific discoveries regarding plants are astounding. In a changing world, with the climate threat, the Plant Intelligence Association is there to explore the consequences of these discoveries.
Plants show a sensitive, adaptive, communicating and networked plant world. Plants are far more active than we ever realized. So, we absolutely need a new frame of reference.
In that aim, we will encourage research and the coordination between the scientific, philosophical and legal communities. The ultimate objective is a new deal between human and plants.
This new way of thinking must gradually be integrated into public policy. It must also be understood and assimilated by the economic world and civil society, particularly through education.
The association was founded in 2019 on the initiative of Sebastien Palle, author and expert in public affairs and international regulations.
We want to be pragmatic. It is not a question of stopping progress but of mastering it, by making better use of bio intelligence. The association wants to reinforce the link between researchers, thinkers, public decision-makers and economic actors.
