Genetically modified plants now generate electricity using photosynthesis, powering sensors with organic batteries in a breakthrough for green energy.

1. Wait till they evolve and make us their slaves like they did to the mushrooms when they crawled out of the sea.

2. Wait until they hear about solar panels 

3. That’s great!! Now humans don’t have to be worried about The Machines using us as batteries sometime in the future!

4. I hate to be the pessimist here but there’s no bloody way anyone from the developing world will have access to those. The same applies to clean energy like solar energy and wind energy. They love to talk about how cheap those technologies have become but they ignore a crucial thing. The human resources. The developing countries don’t have access to engineers and technicians. Education is in such a poor state in those countries. Clean energy is more advanced and will need an infrastructure to be built and even if built somewhere, will still need engineers and technicians to maintain it.

   The reality is that net zero any time soon was never possible and as Africa is industrialising and developing countries start to manufacture more products, fossil fuels will only increase in popularity. There’s no going around that. I hate it because I understand how agonising and suffocating the climate is but those countries won’t stop industrialising because of it.

   So this is the reality we are in.
