Another potential use for this curious process could be in the field of education. There is a gap between those who have grown up acknowledging and exploring the many intricate interactions that undeniably exist in natural environments, ethylene gas affecting fruits being one of the many, and those who do not see the necessity to pay attention to the more subtle workings of nature. It can become easy to pick sides in that some people dedicate so much to understanding and caring for processes with a minimal effect on the average human life and will be labelled as pretentious. Whereas some refuse the fact that environments on every scale depend upon these many intricate and often unnoticeable to the eye interactions and become ignorant, ostensibly refusing to see how the eradication of a species in a far away forest matters. While many people anchor their beliefs and refuse to learn more, I believe that if
