Do Plants Have a World Wide Web That They Use to Control the Global Weather?

Plants talk to their nearby neighbors, but can they also talk to other plants across oceans and vast distances. And if so do they perhaps control the global weather using this communication system. Plants used VOCs (volatile organic compounds) to control weather. BY emitting different mistures of these compouds they create condensation nuclei. They emit a specific combination in the spring to trigger large rains for growth, they suppress the emissions in the summer to a degree to receive adequate sunlight and rain in combination and then in fall like in Atlanta this year they again change the mixture to provide large rains to prepare the soil for their seeding. Plants communicate with each other and insects with chemicals. A damaged plant from insects or disease can send VOCs to warn its neighbors to manufacture defenses. Some VOCs attract predators of insects when the plants are under attack. Bacteria have now been found to be able to influence the growth of plants through changing th
