A2_Introdução à Língua Inglesa
´Plant blindness´ is a term created by the American botanists and biology educators 
Elisabeth Schussler and James Wanders, in 1998.
It´s about the ´inability´ of people seeing or noticing plants in their own environment. 
But, when talking about animals, this ability really occurs, according to the study of 
´attentional blink´, which took place in the United States.
The studied text brought some ´unnecessary´ information that made it long and a bit 
tiring. Omitting it, we would have had a shorter an streamlined text , without the lack 
of relevant information.
It spent the readers´ time, for example, mentioning the details about the studies 
showing children recognizing and remembering more about the last images of 
animals seen, than the plants´.
