So you’re telling me plants don’t feel pain and are not alive?

Plants fight for territory, seek out food, evade predators and trap prey. They are as alive as any animal, and – like animals – they exhibit behaviour.

"To see this, you just need to make a fast movie of a growing plant – then it will behave like an animal," enthuses Olivier Hamant, a plant scientist at the University of Lyon, France. Indeed, a time-lapse camera reveals the alien world of plant behaviour in all its glory, as anyone who has seen the famous woodland sequence from David Attenborough's Life series can attest.

Ever heard of photosynthesis? Every heard of plants who die if not food or water was given? How can something die if it wasn’t alive? Ever saw the plants that trick their prey to come near them so they can eat them? If the answer is no, then you’re wrong and an idiot. It’s a social platform, everyone can see everyone’s profile. You’re a weirdo if you think otherwise.
