Tree of Diplomacy

Can the quiet work of botanists offer a path to peace?

In a world increasingly defined by geopolitical tensions and trade wars, can the quiet work of botanists offer a path to peace? While states engage in trade hostilities and diplomatic standoffs, a group of scientists from the North America-China Plant Exploration Consortium (NACPEC) is pushing back, maintaining a quiet but determined collaboration that defies political tensions.

A 2 Degrees West production.
