People-plant Interaction: Plant Impact on Humans and Environment

Abstract

People-plant interaction studies the complex interactions that exist between humans and the natural environment, particularly plants; it is a thorough research that covers a wide range of views, including ecological, cultural, and psychological aspects. People-plant interaction, at its foundation, investigates how humans use plants as resources and imbue them with cultural and spiritual values, plants have provided humans with food, medicine, and shelter for millennia, and they have considerable cultural and symbolic importance in various nations and cultures. Furthermore, research on people-plant interactions emphasizes the numerous ways in which exposure to plants might promote human health. Exposure to nature, particularly plants, has been demonstrated in studies to help decrease stress and boost productivity. Indoor plants have been shown to enhance air quality and provide a more pleasant environment for humans to work and live in. With our planet's serious environmental issues, understanding the intricate interactions between humans and plants is more crucial than ever. Human-caused environmental changes, such as deforestation, pollution, and climate change, have a significant influence on the natural world, including plants.
