WE ALL DEPEND ON PLANTS TO LIVE ! The picture shows grapes growing in the RIOJA region of NE Spain. ANGELAS Papa is a SPANISH - Wine Merchant. The Sun & the Soil are ideal to produce RIOJA TINTA ~ Vino del Dios ! The VIDEO is for Key stage 5 (aged 16) and explains the symbiosis between Plants & Animals. When one sees the Complexity of the Science & Maths & Languages & IT etc syllabi for GCSE ~ It give one a glimpse of the difficulties of *Home Schooling* older Teenagers ! This is why BORIS is anxious to get them ALL back into School. Primary School teaching is also a *BLACK ART* !

*GLUCOSE (C6H12O6) is the first nutrient formed in PHOTOSYNTHESIS ~ In a simple Chemical Equation   6H2O  +  6CO2  =  C6H12O6  +  6O2  Note that Plants take in CO2 and give out O2 (oxygen) !  Animals do the opposite. Before the Industrial Revolution this maintained the CO2 level @ 260 ppm. It is now 450 ppm due to increased Technology (which produces CO2) and Deforestation which results in GLOBAL WARMING ! In the Plant Glucose is polymerised into STARCH (for food) & CELLULOSE for plant fibre and Animal Foodstuff. In the UK this process is studied @ Key Stage 4 & 5 for GCSE.  Basically its all quite SIMPLE but unfortunately Governments don*t act on it. One solution is to eat less meat and use *Grazing Land* to grow Grain & Fruit & Veggies ~ it all make sense !
