Oftentimes, these nights come with bad sleep, physical discomfort, restlessness, sweating and the wish to take a cold shower this minute.<br \/>\nLocal houseplants are mostly imported from the eponymous tropical areas and decorate our living spaces. As silent witnesses of colonization, they are continuously multiplied and only manage to thrive because of the particularly warm temperatures inside. After careful observation, the absurdity of the term \u201chouseplant\u201d becomes apparent. No plant is made for a life indoors. Numerous exotic species, when treated with good care, can survive many years, as they nearly grow in the dark.<br \/>\nWhat can we learn from our green housemates? How do they adapt to these inhospitable living conditions? What kind of coping mechanisms will humans require in a world that soon will be one, two or three degree Celsius hotter? Those and other questions, K\u00e4the Hager von Strobele explores in \u201cGrowing in the Dark\u201d.
