Should I make a "Parasitic Plants" related stickers and/or zines?
Months ago, I stumbled upon one of Hank Green's about Mola mola fish/Sunfish and he explained how Mola mola in theory is inefficient swimmer yet the species thrives for millions of years.
It does gave me hope because being told for a lot of times in corporate settings where being inefficient means you'll not survive anyway and you'll get left behind.
But Mola mola fish existence kind of brings a different point where it just exists and still thriving! Existing as a species, for millions of years!
Then I recently had a realization/question: "What is the equivalent of Mola mola existence, but in plants?"
The answer is, Parasitic Plants.
From my older blog post, I did discuss on how Parasitic plants are more inefficient compared to Plants that just... doing the typical plants activity. Basically "making their own food" by photosynthesis and then the night times cycle.
(look I know I did study this in highschool during Biology class but this is just a blog post, not a lecture. You can look at Krebb Cycle and Carbon C cycle if you are interested)
And I wonder if I would make merch of Parasitic Plants like "Different, still Existing and still Thriving" or "Nature is framed as Inefficient, yet we are thriving"
Yes this is even more spontaneous blog post and I shall put a bookmark on this. And yes there are two blog posts in a day.
Hope you enjoy your day!
