That is true. We are unable to perceive many things about plants. However we CAN perceive things about animals, they demonstrate their feelings and ability to feel pain and suffering very similarly to how we do. As I KNOW animals suffer, I make my moral choices.
I do not KNOW that about plants, it may be that they feel as much as animals do, or perhaps they do not. That's the difference for me.
