Throw away all your “save the rain forest” posters and start focusing your attention on global warming.

A group of researchers at the Chonnam National University in Korea have developed a cool plant that can actually produce oxygen. The robotic plant looks like your ordinary household plant, tree or whatever. It stands over four-feet tall, has a pot, stem and five buds. Not only does this little bundle of joy emit oxygen and moisture, but it also responds to music and light by dancing its own little jive by opening and closing its petals.

Is this the beginning of us starting to rely on robots for life? I’m pretty sure I know how this movie ends, and it’s not very good. I wonder if that little kid is the second-coming of Neo.
