I love the greenhouses in Edinburgh. They are like little universes, each created as a little, intensified piece of different places on Earth. Artificial, of course, but still. A place to marvel in. On a wall-length poster by the entrance, when I visited in 2013, the following quote was posted: “Destroying rainforest for economic gain is like burning a Renaissance painting to cook a meal (Edward Wilson)”.
