RE: ULOG 142 - Gardening at night
Aha! A true night owl but isn't it a little unconventional to be near plants at night? According to my science class in highschool, plants release carbon dioxide as the result of their respiration system. Hence, I don't think that's healthy for our respiration system. What's your opinion on that?
Gosh that's an interesting angle!! It kinda doesn't make sense though, because what about people who live in jungles? Where would they sleep at night?
:-D yeah now that I think about it, I guess my teacher was sort of short-sighted?
I think your teacher just is like most people: we learn but don’t often update our knowledge.

Haha yes that probably is the case. I am still laughing about monkeys falling from the trees because they are low on oxygen at night haha xx

That’s not nice to laugh from monkey’s mishaps 😅

Yeah but you're laughing... he he
😂 I am sorry this is just so funny!
I don’t think this would be a big issue as this is in open air. Maybe that could be an issue with an indoor plantation but I doubt so.
Plant respire and release CO2 at all time of the day but it is only during day time that they receive light and photosynthesis occurs during which O2 is also released.
But plants are absorbing more CO2 than they emit according to research:

They won’t produce harmful amount of CO2
As @riverflows said, there are people and many animals that lives among plants and on trees.

Although I can't open the ABC page, but I searched on that phrase and I came across several interesting article about indoor plantation and Co2.
Also yes, now that I think about it, there are people who live among plants and even on trees. So next time someone telling me about " it's dangerous to have plantation indoor" I might have to drop some bombs.
Nowadays, you have to countercheck everything. I regularly question my own beliefs and knowledge and check for scientific papers.
But even then it is not guaranteed that the research was done 100% correctly or that the research might be invalidated by another research in several years.
We never really finish learning 😊
