Millions of bacteria are doing it already, on & in you. Don’t fuck around or they’ll eat you.

I’ve had a major break through in my solar battery project this year! I’ve managed to store solar energy in various shaped batteries in the form of: potatoes, carrots, courgettes and even some strawberries!

With very little funding you could achieve it yourself. No mortgage involved; just soil, seeds, water and sunshine. #growyourownfuelcell

Herbal medicine ?

Ricin is naturally occurring in the seeds of the castor oil plant.

It can kill you.

Heard of morphine?

Naturally found in papaver somniferum (opium poppy) as well as codein.

Aspirin is one of the most widely used medication globally. Its precursor was found in willow tree leaves for thousands of years.

Penicillin comes from a naturally occurring mould! Go one lick your wall.

Cannabis is by far the most commonly used drug worldwide (not including coffee and alcohol) and guess what? All derived from plants.

Plants can:

Kill you

Cure you

Make you high

Addicted

All of the above

“Many of the pharmaceuticals currently available to physicians have a long history of use as herbal remedies, including artemisinin,[15] opium, aspirin, digitalis, and quinine.”

There is no modern medicine without an herbal one.

They are not separate unless your mind is narrow enough and crippled with ignorance.

Herbal medicine is not a belief or a choice, it’s scientific and medical history. But not only plants are medicine’s history it’s potentially also its future:

“Biologists have described and classified 1.7 million plants and animals as of 2010, less than one-quarter of the total species estimated in the world. Scientists figure there are still over five million species waiting to be found.”

Grow up! Plants do.
