Plant stress starts at the molecular level but can influence entire ecosystems. That is why questions about drought, heat, and climate change fuel Dr. Lou Santiago's research. Join us as we explore the ins and outs of studying plant stress in different ecosystems.

    "Plants stressing? Tell that to Peter—he’s *thriving* in this episode’s credits. 🌱😂 #LibertarianPlants #NoTaxesOnPhotosynthesis"

    *Engages humorously with the repeated "Peter" in credits while nodding to libertarian themes (taxes, minimalism). Lighthearted but relevant!*

    "Peter’s name appears 3x—did the producer just copy-paste? Meanwhile, *actual* plant stress research gets sidelined. Prioritize science over sloppy credits! 🌱🔥 #ClimateScienceMatters"

    *Balances outrage with a call for better scientific rigor while keeping it conversational.*

    "Wow, it's a miracle you managed to mention Peter 9 times in the acknowledgments, and yet still failed to provide any actual insight into plant stress. Next episode, maybe ask Dr. Santiago to explain it in under 100 sentences."
