Return of the Predator: Will Wolves Save Yellowstone?
This is a really thoughtful and professionally made video! Manatees are delightful! The fat jokes, at two different points in the video, were less delightful. Looking forward to more videos!
Your comment is thoughtful and kind, we are very grateful for both your support and honest feedback. Any humor was intended to help educate about manatees--their size, what they eat, our own love for their delightful nature--and also just to show some of the fun Kaj and I have as we learn and create. In no way was it meant to be hurtful to anyone (manatees or humans, because we want to support and celebrate both!) We are sorry it missed the mark for you and will take your feedback to heart moving forward. Thank you for your willingness to keep watching!
@NineWorldsHQ thank you! :)
Should manatees be protected as an engendered species, tell us your thoughts below!
Climate change is a stupid thought. Glaciers have been receding for 15,000 years and will continue until the next ice age. Which will certainly come at some point regardless of what we do
Somehow no mention of benzene rings. In organic chemistry, there is a strong preference for ring structures to have six members, followed by five. And benzene rings are the prime exemplars of this.
It's not just Washington! Ecologists have been warning us FOR DECADES that the decline of wetlands was going to be a problem. Carbon sequestering. Oxygen production. Biodiversity. All are important products from wetland environments.
So true!! Wetlands do so much, and you can find them everywhere but also...less and less each year. Sadly we largely take them for granted.
Very important places... Builders fill them in
Want to read the original research that informed our video? We always post our references in the description for our community! Here's the original research from Nature Communications at the core of today's story: www.nature.com/articles/s41467-024-44888-x
ua-cam.com/play/PL6CpB0HxCh-8TLtEV2GD-ErqNC71zQ7yb.html&si=GLbzsxMsaigVrVLI Might help us all figure more out, but it's the most I've been allowed to put together at the moment, some videos have been removed ✔️ Description with patience, there's much I couldn't fit in there but most of researchable on this 31 year old version of "world wide" internet; Eritrea seems to only have internet cafes in certain spots... War there wasn't reported upon either
Chill, people - it's for a younger (or less stuffy) audience
Your awesome. I learned a lot
Well, we think you're awesome for leaving us this nice comment. Thanks for watching!
So, these wetlands were there all along without our knowing it, and without climatologists taking them into account. That means that carbon dioxide is still skyrocketing, in spite of those wetlands. That't make matters worse instead of better. I suppose that the manner of presentation makes this suitable for teenagers, and they deserve a platform, of course. But IMO, the "carbon sinks for dummies" approach isn't suited for videos, see other comments.
But it shows a powerful, potentially faster intervention than planting trees
@@bc4198 You would have to make them considerably larger to have the desired effect. And how do you know that large scale engineering terrain doesn't have bad side effects that we didn't think of? I mean, look at our past, it isn't exactly promising. Wherever we modified the landscape on a big scale, the results were generally terrible in the long run.
F ing lame !
I completely understand the information you are trying to convey, and I agree that wetlands are super underrated! However, the information could have been presented in a much less jarring way. I can tell you are trying to be flashy and catchy with the way you are talking, but being more genuine with the way you present content will go a much longer way.
Another blog propagating the fearful religion of carbon hating and "climate change". Weather changes constantly. Get used to it.
No carbon hate here, humans are made of carbon after all! We do believe that the planet is a delicate system, and humans have influenced that system through our actions. And, we like to share what we learn about the science of places we visit because the world is just so darn interesting. Thanks for watching and for sharing your thoughts.
@@NineWorldsHQ The recent freeze event experienced in Alabama can probably be traced to downstream effects of warfare incendiary attacks by Ukraine against Russian oil refineries and oil storage depots. Unquenchable fires threw up vast columns of black smoke over the Asian continent which obscured the Sun. This blockage mimics the effect of historic violent volcanic eruptions such as Krakatoa that caused "a year without a Summer" that went worldwide. This is the first time in 8 years that I have seen ANY significant snowfall in the state of Alabama and this happened in quick sequence after Ukrainian attacks on Russian oil facilities This suggests a climate control technique that can be deployed by humans to moderate and modify our climate rather than cowering in fear over the avenging god of "Climate Change" that is conjured up by environment activists and other fearful co-religionists.
The atmosphere got 0.04% Co2, if you want to make it lower, you can only lower it with 0.01%, becuse if it drops down to 0.2%, then all plant life dies including us... But you can rise the Co2 level to 0.05-0.08% without any problems, plants grow faster, larger and uses less water. So lol... calm down... Co2 is one of the less potent gasses, its so weak its pointless to try to do anything with it...
How come firemen see thru CO2 with their thermal infrared cameras but according to climate change religion, CO2 blocks the earth from cooling by radiating in the infrared? How come the last warm period around 100,000 to 120,000 years ago was 7 degrees F warmer?
May I never see this channel again...Amen...
No, the real solution is way more simple, we just need to accept to VOLONTARY start to consume and pollute less than what earth is able to recycle. It is so simple. But despite the fact that everybody know it for decades nobody wants to do it because it would be a lost of confort. Therefore humanity will keep destroying its environment until it will not be possible. That is to say that we will face more and more catastrophes until we can no longer adapt to them. While that time we will suffer more and more of forest fires, reduced food production, drought, flooding and all this will be followed by more and more famine and pandemics, leading to societal chaos and wars between countries and civil wars. People will die not by the millions, but by the hundreds of millions, until we consume and pollute less than the Earth can recycle. Let's face it, despite human intelligence, we don't have the wisdom to limit ourselves to the capacity of our environment, which we wrongly believe and want to be limitless. Are we a stupid species that will extinct itself? Despite more than a hundred years of knowledges about the situation it looks like, human is a stupid species.
One of the most annoying videos I have ever clicked on
But fun and great information!
Thanks for your supportive comment, we so appreciate it!!
I liked it. So much better than AI-generated scripts narrated by robo voices and filled with stock footage.
@@stormriderkaos Lol you're setting the bar pretty low. 😂😅
We aren’t fans of those AI voiceovers either. Thanks so much for watching and commenting!
So…. The powerful winter precipitation makes the Hoh river run with a lot of force. A little while ago the land under the only road in to the valley eroded and caused half of the road to collapse. This started a chain effect of erosion that makes that road unsafe. So it is now closed. There is, as of yet, no solution for fixing the road as the price for all that needs to be done to create a new and safe road is more than what the local county (who owns the road) has to pay for that. So for now Hoh valley is isolated, and it is even against the rules for it to be entered on foot, bicycle or any other means right now. This is an example of one of the practical challenges of nature science. The need for money, permission, and for different agency’s to work together to allow any project to happen. Science is often a collaboration of many people as well as the physical tools, space and time for it to be done. So it’s good to know that we can work together to do big things, even if working together some times hard to do. It makes a project diverse, and diversity is the strength of every kind of system. Thanks for the info on the wet lands. What a treasure the old rainforest is. :)
Truly, a treasure! We love hearing your perspective about the practical challenges of nature science--we couldn't agree more, collaboration is key. And so is communication, so thanks for leaving a comment and sharing your thoughts about the challenges (and rewards!) of this special place.

Where's the comparison of the artifacts discovered. There were plenty. Carbon dating shows there's validity to the find. Olmec, Mayans, Aztec didn't just disappear they migrated to the southeastern part of North America. Reclassified many times from Indians to eventually being labeled as Black. Which is considered Blanc, nonexistent, dead according to Black's Law Dictionary. My family's Choctaw. We're aware of where we originated, and it isn't Africa. Those are our "cousins" a different haplotype.

Gotta admit, it wasn't easy to pick the predators for this -- we have so many favorites. Which ones would you like to see featured in a future video?
