Plants Can Tell When They're Being Eaten and they don't like it - Modern Farmer

Plants Can Tell When They're Being Eaten and they don't like it - Modern Farmer | Ayahuasca News | Scoop.it

Eating a leaf off a plant may not kill it, but that doesn't mean the plant likes it. The newest study to examine the intelligence (or at least behavior) of plants finds that plants can tell when they're being eaten -- and send out defenses to stop it from happening.

Pueblos indígenas para el mundo del mañana

Pueblos indígenas para el mundo del mañana | Ayahuasca News | Scoop.it

El trato hacia los pueblos indígenas, la minoría más grande del mundo, es una cuestión humanitaria fundamental. Se trata de un tema determinante en la historia de la humanidad y suscita profundas reflexiones sobre lo que significa realmente ser humano.

Este libro refuta las críticas que menoscaban los derechos indígenas y responde a cada pregunta que podrías tener sobre ellos: cómo viven, su historia, qué quieren y que han aportado al mundo. Los gobiernos lo odiarán.

Jerónimo M.M.'s insight:

Recomendado! Leí la versión inglesa hace algún tiempo, de lectura obligada.

Ayahuasca on CNN Sunday 26th at 10 pm Eastern

Ayahuasca on CNN Sunday 26th at 10 pm Eastern | Ayahuasca News | Scoop.it
From Dennis McKenna: I wanted to let people know that there will be a report on CNN on Sunday night at 10 pm Eastern, a new show called This is Life with Lisa Ling. The episode will report on a group of veterans who traveled to Peru last summer seeking therapy for their PTSD. This was done under the auspices of VET, Veterans for Entheogenic Therapy, founded by vet Ryan LeCompte. There will be a Twitter roundtable during and following the show that will include yours truly, Rick Doblin, Ryan, Dave Nichols, as well as the reporter, Lisa Ling. The hashtags are #ayahuasca and #ThisIsLife. I'm a raw novice to Twitter so my participation may be a bit of a disaster! The others however are Twitter Jedi so it's sure to be a lively discussion. Tune in and participate if you have time and interest.

Ian Mosby, a post-doctoral researcher in the history of science at the University of Guelph, was investigating Canada’s nutrition policies during the Second World War when he saw a paper by a federal scientist comparing Aboriginal children with white children.
