Only a green world, rich in plants, can sustain us and the millions
of other species with which we share this planet. But, in an era of
global change, nature is on the retreat. Like the communities they
form, many plant species are becoming rarer, threatened even to the
point of extinction. The worldwide community of almost three
thousand botanic gardens are holders of the most diverse living
collections of plants and have the unique potential to conserve
plant diversity. Conservation biology is a fast moving and often
controversial field, and, as the contributions within these pages
from experts in the field demonstrate, plant conservation is
multifaceted, mirroring the complexity of the biodiversity it aims
to protect, and striving not just to protect threatened plants but
to preserve ecosystem services and secure the integrity of the
biosphere.
