YouTube Description
as posted by the channelWhat if aliens were plant based life? On this explainer, Neil deGrasse Tyson and comic co-host Chuck Nice explore the bias we have towards other species and kingdoms, from an outside lense.
Why do we prefer to kill one animal over another? Is there such thing as an ethical mousetrap? Plus, we break down what it would be like for plant-based sentient life to watch us on Earth. What would they think of the produce section of the grocery store? What would they think of the fact we don’t photosynthesize for food?
