    Even if our brains are indeed getting smaller in size, there is one thing everyone should take into account - the density of neuronal connections also matters, the number alone cannot tell us all we need to know

    50,000 years ago is also when the climate stabilized.
    So the upper Paleolithic and the Holocene.

      That’s messed up that I intuitively came up with the answer to the shrinking brain.

    Judging by the fact you don't know how to spell DUMBER, I'm going to side with YES.

    Spend a year trying to find out if we are getting dumber, and your answer is climate change. I think the question answered itself.

  • @SIMUL4CR4
    @SIMUL4CR4 2 роки тому +8

    TLDR; no, we're not getting dumber, our brains are just shrinking because of climate change.
    This is beyond parody.

    In science there are no answers only theories. Just make a theory... do experiments... and record the data...

    You gave no reason/justification for the decline other than blaming climate change. Having just pointed at a reason that seems popular with no other facts makes this presentation less answering and more of a fluff piece for climate change.
