Sorry, Vegans, Plants Make Decisions Now

 ...and about something very important.

It appears plants have a metabolic channel that actually chooses whether to keep CO2 and use it or release it back into the atmosphere.

So, now maybe we can talk to the plants and ask them to store more CO2. I'm not entirely joking here; breeding or genetically modifying plants to store more CO2 for a bit could actually be a piece of the climate change puzzle. And it would be to the benefit of the plants too.

(By the way? They domesticated us)
