Enset plants closely resemble banana plants (Credit: James Borrell)

Extreme weather caused by global warming is expected to increasingly challenge the yields of conventional crops like corn, wheat, and soy. Small-scale farmers — who lack the resources to adapt to climate change — will be particularly hard hit. Scientists believe that the only way to combat this is by introducing new, hardier crops to what they're currently growing. That's where Ethiopia's enset, or "false banana," plant comes in.

            This is great because it could end world starvation and it doesn’t need to be watered for about 7 years so people who aren’t’t really good at keeping plants like me could grow them except I don’t think it could grow in my backyard.
