>unless you avoid facing the fact that plants are alive and have consciousness.

I think, if you want to discuss this further, we ought to do it offline, but
the experiments that supposedly showed consciousness and emotional reactions
in plants were totally discredited quite some time ago.  The "experimenter's"
"signals" were less than random noise in the apparatus, and so forth.
