to stay apart, away from work, school, and our normal routines. But, all around the world, kids came up with creative and thoughtful ways to help others.

conquête massive de territoires par de redoutables envahisseurs ; déploiement d'armes chimiques sophistiquées : les plantes ont mille manières de se faire la guerre. Mais nul ne dirige ces entreprises belliqueuses, car les plantes sont un monde sans chef. Les animaux s'affrontent pour la nourriture, le territoire, le partenaire sexuel, la protection des petits. Mais, à travers l'évolution, la nature a inventé d'habiles stratagèmes visant à réguler leur agressivité ; on les voit se mettre en place et se perfectionner chez les poissons, les oiseaux et même les loups. Ils échouent malheureusement chez les rats... et chez les humains. En effet, nous sommes loin de nos cousins les Bonobos, ces grands singes qui, fidèles au slogan de mai 1968, font l'amour mais pas la guerre. Les humains ont tenté de tout temps de maîtriser leur agressivité qui menace si dramatiquement notre espèce, mobilisant à cette fin les philosophies, les religions, la psychologie, la sociologie. Force est de constater qu'ils n'y sont point parvenus. Y parviendront-ils et comment ? Peut-être en s'inspirant des modèles que nous offre la nature... " -- 4e de couvBy Francesco Marciuliano. 2012
