The Tiny Capsules That Built Civilizations
Next time you toss an apple core, pause and look at those seeds. Those small, hard nuggets contain something extraordinary: a baby plant wrapped in protective armor, complete with its own packed lunch, ready to wait months or even millennia for the right moment to spring to life. This ingenious package has quietly shaped our planet for 360 million years, transforming barren landscapes into lush forests, turning nomadic hunters into settled farmers, and building the foundation for every civilization that ever rose. Without seeds, there would be no bread on your table, no cotton on your back, no coffee in your cup. Yet we discard them without a thought, never recognizing that these humble objects represent one of evolution's most brilliant inventions-a revolution that changed everything.
