Plants don't have nervous systems, which appear to be what enables suffering

[-] SlurpingPus@lemmy.world 5 points 6 days ago

Did you mean to say plants instead of animals, or...?

I'm not even sure about plants not having something similar as a nervous system. They live on different timescale, but it's impressive what e.g. Trees in forests are capable of (with a little help of funghi)

Yep, sure did. Thanks for the correction

The smell of cut grass is the grass warning other grass that doom is upon them. Plants communicate in ways we can't understand in the same way as they don't make noise. They don't like being harvested anymore than an animal does.
