  • Interesting, as explained in the article the smell (VOC) we would experience of a newly cut lawn would technically be the cries of the plants. So other plants see it as a warning and they bolster their defenses. Ain’t that no different from a baby cow being killed slowly probably through a predator. It would communicate through cries. Making similar animals interpret this as a warning perhaps making them react by running away or fighting back. Maybe we don’t see the VOC as act of cry because we simply don’t have any idea how to process it, since we’re not plants. Though we could argue that plants does not have consciousness as we’re aware of while animals do.

    Edit: anyways not trying to question your choice of veganism, I think it’s a noble choice. I just wanted to share my thought on that statement you mentioned.
