Not all that can be counted, should be counted. Or counted in the way that you are familiar with.

When it comes to complex issues like climate change, using simple numbers distracts us from the complexity. The moral obligation of humanity to take care of our most precious resource, our ancestral home, our planet, the mother that gave us life, cannot be measured.

Parkia speciosa (petai), is a large tree plant in the Fabaceae family native to Malaysia, Brunei, Indonesia, peninsular Thailand and the Philippines (Palawan). The Petai tree bears long, flat edible beans with bright green seeds which have a rather peculiar pungent smell.

Far from your innocent sweet green peas, Petai beans reveals their presence, power and pungency. These beans will leave their odor inside your mouth and body for days, similar to asparagus.
