Plant Rights and Life Manifesto: The Principle from the Oldest Living Plant Individual to the Future (Doctrinal Note 1)

This note defines the Principle from the Oldest Living Plant Individual to the Future, developed in preparation of the Plant Rights and Life Manifesto, as an independent and citable doctrine. It explains the principle’s scope, limits, decision criteria, and points of distinction from earlier approaches. It does not replace the full manifesto; it establishes its temporal dimension.
