"Ok guys, here it comes! Just like we practiced, wait for it, wait for it, wait for it, NOOOW! EVERYBODY STAY PERFECTLY STILL!"
This study feels like meat industry propping up "plant also have feeling" rhetoric so that meat lovers can use it as some sort of gotcha against vegan activists.
Sorry but the title on this post is so clickbaity. We've known that plants release chemical signals when injured for ages. This is definitely not "whispering messages"
Also not news, right?
Unfortunately the grass screaming about the lawnmower is useless at stoping the humans and pointless at informing the trees.
This is funny and all but the article literally address that it works across generations
The kind of grass that gets mowed has a symbiotic relationship with humanity.
It's happening.
Oh yeah, the movie where nothing actually happened and they gave away the twist ending halfway through the movie.
which movie?
The Happening
Yes.
And I loved it too.
Checkmate, vegans!
Damn! It's back to dead animals, then...
Don’t fret! I know many vegans who would rather starve to death instead, but certain they’d be happy for the company!
That sounds like a good idea, although starving seems a little inconvenient for me. But since being eaten is also inconvenient for the plants, I'll give it a try!
