The Hidden Powers of Plants: From Immortality to Space Exploration | SLICE SCIENCE | FULL DOC

[@ionagibbons9906]

This is a brilliant video and needs priority focus. I remember a local university did a project of plant walls to reduce car pollution and it really works. A simple hedge at the front of an urban garden reduces car pollutants in the house significantly and also is a big noise reducer. I live in a bungalow that has a lot of moisture as it’s next to a well over 400 yrs old lots of water under the soil. The room nearest the well was left not lived in for some time so black mould took over I cleaned the walls and treated the walls. But I thought the damp air could still be present even though I cleaned the walls. So I put in house plants that like moisture and these have been cleaning the air. I don’t need to put heating on to keep the air clean plants are doing it. I also use simple Rock salt to support moisture control. Plants are deeply advanced in knowing how to support everything we need for life.

What is the name of the plants you used to filter this room?

[@nayayelin-nk4hc]

@@QuiChiYang2 I think he might be using peace lilies.

[@KerrieRedgate]

Indeed, yes. Plants are brilliant!

[@dominicayyanikkatt7463]

Brilliant and highly useful Documentary. This can be included in the High School and University syllabus.

[@SLICE_Science]

Thank you for watching !!

[@vegan4life532]

Many thanks to all who participated in the production and presentation of this beautiful film

[@rayrocher6887]

i want to save the forests and plants also, amen. plants cheer us up.

[@kathymiller5781]

This was Wonderful! Thanks ❤

[@SLICE_Science]

Thank you !!

[@furrystep]

Woww.. this was perhaps the most illuminating piece of documentary oh and even education I have ever had the pleasure of ingesting. Thank you all for the respect towards plants... and us.

[@___beyondhorizon4664]

I like plants more than animals. Here in southern California, our grounds are full of pine 🎍 trees cones, it looks dead but I guess the seeds are ready to be alive! When I see baby trees next to big trees 🎄, It gives me pleasure that the baby trees made it😊

[@wuodanstrasse5631]

Please, most seriously, please eliminate ALL of the 'musak' that makes clearly understanding what is being stated much more difficult. Not everyone has excellent hearing. Mine was destroyed by being on the wrong end of thousands of bombs in Vietnam. Try as I may, the 'musak' makes hearing clearly essentially impossible. Thank you.

[@sonarbangla8711]

Every time I think of plant and animal life as quantum systems (infinite dimensional Hilbert space) along with all the magic they entail, blows my mind and I am thrown into the middle of the Matrix. Plants with its photosynthesis etc., and the tendency to free all cells of impurities, closing the inside from the impure outside, thereby providing that leap from the physical to the metaphysical that is emergence of life and consciousness. SLICE gives me what I need.

[@JohnShields-xx1yk]

Plants and trees are fascinating, only now that in older and retired do I slow down and walk and look do I appreciate there amazing survivability and adaptability, they'll probably be the last living things left in the end.🌎

[@guysmith6616]

[@truthseeker4491]

that is indeed a very very good documentary.

[@SLICE_Science]

Thank you so much !

[@jeanphilogene9304]

Once I saw on tv that plants have to be loved and spoken to. When I was planting my summer plantations I spoke to them and said please give me your fruits plentifully and that year their yield was so much that I had to give to all my neighbours.

[@gangapoornima]

Great docu, thank you !!! Music, almost dramatic and new agie and sensational etheric way of speaking-i had to go through that, despite that, i watched it and loved it.

[@millenniumvividium5535]

We need to make a deal in the future... People who choose to go into space, go and never come back and leave the rest of us alone to rebuild and look after this wonderful gift of a planet we have.

[@treethunderchild9022]

Earth, love it or leave it, for those who do. Humans will mass migrate off planet once it is affordable and environmentally friendly. Our cities, vehicles, etc. are like a bird learning to glide before learning to fly. City way of life does not fit on earth, it does fit on Mars. America wasn't the New World. Doing the right thing, in the wrong place.

Water hyacinth is an incredible useful plant. It does what humans can’t see. It spreads, because we spread our pollution everywhere creating the perfect environment for the plant. It is a gift when used right. Imagine the infinite amount of compost. It can be spread in the cooking heat. As the leave contain excess water, thick layers can keep the moisture in if woven into mats with hay and tree left overs. Nature is simply telling us the solution. It does it cheap and efficient while being generous. The fact that we always treat something hostile says more about us, than about the plant. Why didn’t the plant spread invasively in prehistoric times? It didn’t have to! There are deserts that need stopping. Slow water evaporation is what you need. Making fertile land should be prioritized above making throw away stuff we don’t need. We should reconsider the concept of value. It needs an update. For someone starving to death any nutritious soil and thus food is okay. We don’t need to assess if crops yield more stuff. This is penny wise pound foolish. Unnecessary waste of human capital and resources. It is a bit embattled that we can pour out junk and pollution on industrial scale, but are unable to support a cleaning plant and use it after good service on the same industrial scale. The more you dive into these subjects the more embarrassing it is.

[@rayrocher6887]

thanks for caring - clean the world, great plants. i like Captain Planet and Planeteers too.

[@Beherenow-p5e]

I speak to my plants all the time and we can communicate. Thanks for this amazingly beautiful and informative video. We know so little and there is an eternity to be explored.

I was going to say something but the older I've gotten the more things I've seen that are hard to explain. They may be god but humans have gotten many things wrong in the past. Yes I'm not atheist but agnostic. I'm still waiting on more data.

I'm pardon me but the other reason why the leaves at the top of a redwood tree are thinner and wider and broader at the base is because they let light shine through to the lower leaves

[@judithmcdonald9001]

I love it! Seems like you went a lot of places. Me, the total plant nerd liked the first stuff because much of what I study is the applied here on earth stuff.I've lived in the redwoods--very selfish trees that make an environment where only they survived. And they do, as does their lumber. The coastal redwoods were nearly logged out in many places, especially Santa Cruz. It's good to know NASA is taking things a bit further, but if we can't live here, we can't live there. Plants speak. You need ears to hear. Plants contain specialized cells in their stomata. What an amazing science.

[@sonarbangla8711]

My mother admonished me since I was 8 years old to never cut a tree unless indispensable. Why ? Because when having had the last breath more than many of us decide to rest for a longer time in a tree. And if this tree is suddenly felled the resting souls are terribly disturbed.

I live in the river city of Brisbane which has been designated the “greenest” city in Australia. We have buildings everywhere that are literally dripping with plant-life, even the foyers of some buildings have living walls of plants, and roof tree-gardens. Trees everywhere. And Brisbane has over 2,000 parks of varying sizes. Looking at the air quality in the Weather apps, at least near the river here, it is often very clear quality, and I’m 2.5km from the CBD. It just takes innovative architects and good suburban Councils.

[@alanwerner8563]

But are we too Arrogant (to make the requisite changes necessary to how we design our buildings)? There’s a very short answer to that question: YES

[@GreenCanvasInteriorscape]

Look into the leed Green building initiative, no mention of live plants in the interior specifications, bizarre, many architects are brutalists/minimalists and see them as extraneous as opposed to elemental

With all due respects, I love our green friends but they mostly shutdown for winter and don't need to go anywhere to work unlike us humans. If all humans lived along those 2 small strips on each side of the equator in the perfect climate then we wouldn't need so much energy to survive but we've managed to spread everywhere and keeping warm and traveling to work is a must for our survival. I'm in a zone 4b in Canada and it's cold outside right now and for the next 6 months.

[@GeffreyKane]

To clean up the current mess we are in "Are we too arrogant"?- so far, yes! We measure the abilities & intelligence of other life, based on how similar they are to us!? Plants are the intelligent life on this planet, they maintain the planets health, we destroy it.

[@KerrieRedgate]

This is a fabulous documentary! But just one small piece really shocked me: the ignorant man who grew a genetically modified flowering plant by adding his own DNA to the plant! That is one of the most ignorant things I have ever heard about in my life! I am totally opposed to any hybridisation of plants. Plants have been evolving on this Earth for an incredibly longer time than we have, and they are infinitely more advanced and adaptive than we are, which is why they support us with food, shelter, and infinite healing properties. Plants are conscious, as are all living things (you can’t have “life” without “consciousness”). Human DNA would be anathema to such a plant, like an devolved irritant. Cleve Backster had spent decades researching the consciousness in plants with lie detector machines - look him up!
