I love whales man. They are so mastic & gentle (in the wild) Also dolphins are great. I've been followed in a small speed boat for over an hour by a pod of like 300+ dolphins in Monterey Bay. We would reach out and pet them they were so playful and were 100% following our moves
But, we are a beautiful species as well. We have the mind and power to restore and even enrich our planet even further than ever before. There's so much excessive baggage we must drop from our daily lives if we are to reach that change someday.
Without the explanation of sound pollution that follows the introduction of humans in this clip, it may seem disingenuous when Sagan says, "For tens of millions of years, the whales had no natural enemies..." Of course whales have had natural PREDATORS throughout their evolution, and to this day they are preyed upon by orcas. The introduction of human predation on whales is not without parallel in the natural world, but the muffling of long-range whale communication probably is.
@angrygrunt I never believe and except anything just because someone tells me its a fact. Or because its what everybody believes. I intend on truth only, and when it can't be had, I settle with the possibilities and leave it at that.
@angrygrunt Evidence =/= fact. Science sets out to logically explain something through observation and study. My definition of Theory is exactly what you described it as. That is why calling Evolution a fact and just excepting it is blatant close mindedness and arrogance. There may be evidence that links one bit to another but the Theory of evolution still has TREMENDOUS holes in it. Evolution can't be "proven" with out a time machine to go back and see if that is how it happened.
Have you ever read On The Origin of Species? The amount of evidence in that book alone is overwhelming. The supplementary work by biologists in the previous decades have only confirmed it even further.
There is no one quite like him. Gotta love this!
Me !

That reveal at the end is nightmare inducing
first view,fire comment,first rating,gotta love Carl's work!
@boots992134 lol thanks for letting me know. The education system in america is horrible, so i had to educate my self on evolution.
The ending did disturb me. Man.. my species STINKS.
Evolution is now common core curriculum for 6th and 8th graders in the U.S.
That would be a good thing, considering the overwhelming evidence behind evolution
💙
its continued in one of the other videos
second view, second comment , second raiting , gotta love Carl"s work !!
@boots992134 they dot teach evolution in american schools, but they do in english schools (i think)
1:12 where's the rest??

Oh so this IS in the cosmos. Is it? haha.
@Aresftfun Excellent series, go watch it.

That ending is ominous. We may cause the next mass extinction of animals after the asteroid 65 million years ago that wiped out the dinosaurs.
