Webinar Recording – Crime Pays But Botany Doesn’t : A Punk Rock Botanist’s 5 Favorite North American Plant Species. In Conversation with Joey Santore

About this webinar:

Sometimes referred to as a punk rock botanist, Joey Santore has built his public persona on his colourful language, interesting life story and unwavering passion for native plants. In fact, the description on Joey’s YouTube Channel: Crime Pays but Botany Doesn’t describes the content as “A Low-Brow, Crass Approach to Plant Ecology & Evolution as muttered by a Misanthropic Chicago Italian. We study plants through the lens of ecology and evolution, rather than what supposed anthropocentric uses they can provide (as if holding up the biosphere wasn’t enough).” In this lively and engaging webinar, Joey presents a fascinating overview of some of his favorite North American native plants and answers a variety of audience questions.
