Can Trees TALK?

DON'T BUY FROM ESTABLISHED TITLES WITHOUT DOING YOUR OWN RESEARCH FIRST. They only use a fraction of a fraction of the money they make towards actual tree-planting or environmental work, and DO NOT make you a Lord/Lady officially.
Weird video for this channel but it was fun to make.

NOTES
[Note 1] – Note the use of the passive voice here for the tree, as opposed to active for the dog.
[Note 2] – This is specifically about the conception in scientific literature, where an “objective” and “non-sensational” view has been emphasised for a long time. In the popular culture of nations around the world, trees have often been considered “beings”, as is argued in detail in Haskell (2017).
