How can we truly know if the colors we see are the true colors of the plants and animals around us if all the information(colors we see) have to be processed through organic eyes nerves and brains?

Something else to think about: We say a leaf is green, but one could argue the leaf isn’t green at all. All the colors in the sun’s rays hit the leaf and the leaf absorbs a bunch of that energy, and the light that *didn’t* get absorbed bounces off the leaf and into our eye, which we see as green. In other words, “green” is the color of light that is rejected by the leaf and bounces off of it for everyone to see, while the rest of the spectrum is accepted by the leaf and used for energy.
