Fungi or Funguy...🍄

Hi everyone,

Fungi are in the news today as they are amazing plants with some amazing properties most interestingly to me is their DNA is more like human DNA than plants.

Fungi are vital for life on our planet and penicillin and other vital med's are thanks to fungi.

And It has now be found that it can break down plastic and can be used for making bags clothes shoes etc so this is exciting news.

Here's 2 articles on the BBC and the other the Guardian:

I came up with a tongue-in-cheek theory once that fungi are at the top of the food chain, not humans. Fungi eat everything, even jet fuel so they will survivie long after we have gone.

The theory was about fungi breeding us. It started by saying that at the time of conception, at least one of the couple was usually under the influence of alcohol, which is fungi "output". It went on from there about how fungi affect our lives. I should have written it down.
