  • Dr. Jack Schultz has been watching insects eat plants for four decades. He discovered that plants complain about being eaten and call for help. There is a "conversation" going on all around us; plants are "talking" to other plants, to microbes, and to insects. He thinks that if we can learn to listen, we can interrogate plants about their experiences. "Do you have disease?" "What has been eating you?" "How's the soil?" "Tell me about air quality." Schultz directs the interdisciplinary Christopher S. Bond Life Sciences Center at the University of Missouri in Columbia, MO. He has also been a performing jazz guitarist for over 50 years -- when time allows.

    ....”plants are just very slow animals.” So true. And that’s not the best part-there’s more that I’ve learned.

    "Conversation", aka Data Transference, sorta like plants are all "on-vine".

    I have to wonder how much stress plants experience or sense when, say, a person, or a vehicle is moving through a field, crushing all their "kin". Is it possible there is such a thing as a subtle plant "telepathy"?

    Vegans overlook the fact that plants are indeed Living Sensitive Beings - because plants are all they have left to eat. They're so intelligent-the way they interact with each other and the environment around them- that some scientists now speculate whether plants may have something like a 'brain' in their root systems. We already know they can feel Pain. Some species react immediately uptown touch, and there's even one type of plant that can 'dance' to the sound of music. Incredible. We once thought of animals as creatures that didn't serve any purpose other than to serve for dinner. We respect them now. Maybe one day, people will extend that same courtesy to our friends who grow from beneath the soil.

    It's a shame whoever's filming didn't zoom in on the screen of what he was talking about that plants produce to protect themselves against insects I'm sure he didn't have these visuals just for something to do and a spare time I'm sure he picked these visuals to make a point. And whoever is filming is missing the point

    It's very stressful for water, it has to figure out how to get to the top of mountains then back down again, all the time dealing with high heats and different states. It's very stressful for water. Please show me evidence that it isn't just a reaction to the environment as oppose to some kind of consciousness. It is also known that plants don't feel pain and so it's not stressful at all because they have no emotion or concept of emotion. Therefore plants don't have a consciousness. They're not aware of themselves or that they exist.

      +TheaDragonSpirit where is the evidence you speak of that plants feel no pain?

      +TheaDragonSpirit Michio Kaku's evidence for consciousness is very interesting when compared with plants.

    • @warriorfortruth2838

      plants DO have consciousness. When channeled from the other side the information is yes they do have consciousness and yes they have emotions and feel pain.

      Drink some ayahuasca and the plants will talk to you.
