Documentaries, Reportages and Background Reports
An
extremely extensive media analysis, carried out over more than six years,
documents the numerous campaigns against non-native plants. It also analyses
how these campaigns influence politics and ultimately legislation.
Background:
In
addition to the threat of climate change, the loss of biodiversity is currently
perceived as an existential threat. At the latest since the publication of the
Krefeld study, which found a decline in the insect population of about 75%, the
topic of insect mortality has been present in many media.
The
importance of private gardens is often pointed out, which in total have about
the same area as all nature reserves.
Ecocide:
The
demand of many non-governmental organizations and "the scientific
community" regarding private gardens, but also with regard to public green
spaces, is that non-native plants should be removed and replaced by native
ones.
According
to this view, only native plants provide a habitat for native insects, as
co-evolution has taken place over thousands of years.
One can
speak of a real ecocide. Garden culture that has grown over centuries is being
wiped out, an act of barbarism.
You get scared and anxious when you look at the quotes from leading scientists. Not only is the level frightening, these “scientists” will in the foreseeable future “legitimize” restrictions on the basic rights of millions of garden owners and demand ecocide as part of the declared biodiversity emergency.
