实地考察
据悉,Blackmore教授是原英国爱丁堡皇家植物园主任,英国女王植物学家(Queen’s Botanist),并被英国王室授予CBE勋章。Blackmore教授作为丽江高山植物园的老朋友,他感触良多,其在留言簿上这样写道:
It is always a very special opportunity for me to come to Lijiang.
I remember in 2000 we marked the site of the main buildings. We hoped that the Jade Dragon Field Station would become an important centre for research conservation and education. It has been a great success - going beyond my dreams.
For the future we should continue to develop the botanical garden and begin to restore the vegetation in the surrounding area. For the future we need to know how human beings can repair damage done in the past. We can do it and this is a great place to start.
