Displays logos that can be read. Now if plants only had their name emblazed on them.
(I'm just yapping and nitpicking the OP pic, don't mind me unless you're bored I guess ๐ )
A bunch of stuff I don't recognize even with the name on it, lots of stuff that's just the name itself. Visa's in there twice. Bleh! Could've done better, I think.
That said, complaining that most people recognize more corporations than plants because we all hate nature and love corps is kinda ridiculous. I agree that humans generally are far too friendly to capitalism but recognizing, firstly, what's present in the environment and secondly, threats present in the environment are important parts of human development. 80% of USians live in urban areas. I doubt this number is that much lower anywhere else the creator of that image would be complaining about. Which has more representation in urban areas: corporate logos or species of plants? Which is easier to learn the name of? (Hint: the pic in the OP shows numerous logos with company names in them)
I'm imagining a person comes by spraying herbicide and this person's upset that I know the brand of the sprayer better than the plants that don't grow where it goes.
