Does plant pain matter? I explore the question of sentience, how it relates to pain and suffering, the amount of plant matter eaten by the animals we eat, the trophic pyramid, thermodynamics and the rhetorical technique of using "even if" statements.
I take some clips from Neil Degrasse Tyson, Joe Rogan, and Charisma on Command where they briefly express their position on the topic and use that as a jumping off point for the conversation.
