@horrnypan @Masii016 De hecho si hay investigaciones Consciousness and cognition in plants (WIREs Cognitive Science) Awareness and integrated information theory identify plant meristems as sites of conscious activity (Protoplasma) Y Dios, lo estás atacando solo porque dijo que las plantas sienten
@VerySillyBunny @legs_snail @HEAVIERTHANSOME @RegularSanStan The more pro plant sentience side: They frame it as an investigation not a certainty https://t.co/L9YrqeBPHx https://t.co/Ew8rP57sUC https://t.co/WJRchBVJLa
@Judojugs @JayExci 4)https://t.co/uFAWlOwlq3 this article demonstrates they definitively have would could be argued to be consciousness. Again everyone agrees plants at least react and respond to their environment, that is not below where some species of animal are.

@e_philalethes @JohnOberg https://t.co/qtfrnLukMz your comments on this piece?
@CoralieBorel @CalvezRichard donc là tu es entrain de nier la science?? femme de peu de foi...
@Philip_Goff Seeing this world as imperfect is IMO the biggest human mistake. But I perfectly understand where you are coming from. Still, 1) veganism is based on empathy; 2) carni/omnivores other than human exhibit empathy. So... Also, plants may be sentient, too. https://t.co/uOduzATHMh
@nick_andrws Because they realize that veganism also presents moral issues once society eventually recognizes that plants are also conscious living beings? https://t.co/UQcNlTKTPG
@Libuse_Carodej @DoomScroling There isn't even scientific consensus with regard to whether plants are sentient. No one can conclusively assert in good faith that Homo sapiens aren't sentient as unborn children. https://t.co/V4X0uh76CD
@gbcotrim @S_Catsgotmyback @piersmorgan https://t.co/fAdNymEO3G These are studies haha the reference the material used from other studies that are compiled to form the hypothesis. Like I said, as more studies and data are being explored. The more the facts show plants are conscious. You did not read this clearly.
@Idrewabird @WiseWoodrow @veganpragmatism @herbivore_club https://t.co/fAdNymEO3G So you guys plan on reading the 45 pages of research for this argument or the Google notes just easier. Long explanation of the empirical studies and peer reviewed research that is now re writing our understand of plants and their roles in consciousness

@TheRealNillaDk @khaled_ouanes @Johnmcinnesliv1 @TheSkepticalV plants are sentient being too. Their consciousness is just different from that of animals. However, they suffer from stress, they communicate with each other, they also elaborate strategies to fend off predators. https://t.co/bulorBYXqc

@naval Are plants sentient? https://t.co/XgyGeeRK7E
@AtheistDamned @vegan_front @agargmd Science advances. Much of what Tompkins & Bird described in their 1973 book, “The Secret Life of Plants” holds up today. This contrasts with the canard that plant-based diets are healthful, which (AFAICT) is unsupported by any strong research result. https://t.co/E201lzLLGh
@AtheistDamned @vegan_front @agargmd Animal responses can be attributed to well-known physiological processes, such as tropisms (reflexes), chemical signaling (hormones & nerves), or passive physical reactions (evaporation, thermal equilibrium) to external stimuli.

@SinthePosting protect themselves from being consumed or killed. "Contrary to what it is commonly assumed, plants seem to be capable of many of the cognitive abilities traditionally assumed to be exclusive to animals." https://t.co/4BNylydkjo
@cosmos_mother @vegan_logic "Contrary to what it is commonly assumed, plants seem to be capable of many of the cognitive abilities traditionally assumed to be exclusive to animals. Hence, the behavioral evidence thus suggests that plants could qualify to be sentient organisms." https://t.co/CkhXmmvS9A
@herbivore_club Truth be told: plants have DNA and somehow communicate with each other. The emerging field of plant neurobiology is seeking to prove the existence of cognitive ability in plants. https://t.co/VQwrI6wsw1; https://t.co/H6XgYPQ8Fh
