A series of Fascination of Plants events across Aberdeen will highlight the impact of climate change on the natural world, including activities from plant sales to sessions demonstrating how plants can help fight climate change by taking carbon from the atmosphere and how mosses are able to store water.

The programme is part of the biannual Fascination of Plants Day, which encourages people to learn more about the importance of plants and plant science from providing the air we breathe to the sustainable production of nutritious food.
