minus-squareFermatsLastAccount@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up2arrow-down1·1 year agoIf you want to minimize plant death, going vegan is still the right move. Most of the crops we grow go to feeding animals that people eat.
minus-squareRightHandOfIkaros@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoI don’t really care about minimizing plant death. I’m not Vegan or Vegetarian, nor will I be in the future. I just made a joke.

minus-squareTheMauveAvenger@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 year agoThat’s lemmy.ml. I think most of us just want this to be a place with less politics and extremism on either side because it’s exhausting.
minus-squareTywèle [she|her]@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoWhat’s more extreme: not wanting to harm and exploit animals or killing and exploiting them to use them as products? I think it’s pretty clear.

Here is a recent study of audible reactions plant can have to stress: https://www.cell.com/cell/fulltext/S0092-8674(23)00262-3 Do plants react to stress and harmful situations like infestation? Absolutely. Do they actually feel pain as we understand it? Probably not since they lack a nervous system. This boils down to the question: What is pain?
