Hi, I'm Kurtis Baute! I make videos about climate change. On this channel I explain different aspects of the climate crisis and ways to take action against it. I also do things like seal myself in a jar with a bunch of plants, or tie myself onto trees to prevent oil pipelines from being built.
In a small attempt to reduce the waste in the world, I've removed RU-vid ads from my entire channel in the hopes fewer people will buy things they don't need. If you do want to support the work I do, please share my videos and the messages in them.
500 miles/8 months max... usually, by then, my lower legs start to hurt after wearing them, and I eventually get the hint, flip them over and discover that the soles are quite worn
Depression is largely a mismatch disease. Our brains expect us to be chilling with a tight-knit tribe, socialising, hunting and dancing around a fire. Instead, we are stuck in artificially lit rooms surrounded by people we’re not particularly close to, staring at screens in the same seated position all day. Depression is a signal that our life isn’t what our brain expects.
A rover on mars😂😂😂😂 thanks for starting my day with a laugh. But i still had to take back my thumbs up. How does the saying go: stop while you are ahead😅
Wow you need to do more research because you were being lied to human caused climate change is not the biggest problem we’re facing unfortunately our food and the quality is probably the worst. Nothing drastic is going to change in our climate because of humans a Serbian mathematician years ago already proved why it is heating up and Why it cools down
My yearly rewatching of this masterpiece never fails to get me stoked about biogas and Kurtis' incredible songwriting talent, hope you are keeping well <3
I’ll subscribe because you obviously know your 💩 but wanted to ask you to do something on plant vs animal and how they differ. Also and I already know this is nuts 🥜 but how about the impact of music on growth and health of both plant and mycelium. Thanks.
Evolution is a goofy myth that nobody should believe in the modern era. We are not related to mushrooms and bananas. We are only related to other humans. This is a well-established scientific fact.
Hey, nice video. Unfortunately I didn't learn "how to teach myself anything." I did learn, however, what I need to have in order to learn: have an objective n have fun. I hoped I'd get some techniques that would guide me through the process of learning
I feel this so hard! It‘s absurd though how our society kinda tries teaching us that learning is boring and uninteresting while we kinda are made to assume experts and artists are born. When I learned to draw and developed that skill, I often had arguments with people who‘d today tell me I‘m born gifted or something while back then they‘d say I couldn‘t possibly become a real artist cause I wasn‘t born with the talent. It‘s really absurd. It even took my family some unlearning to accept that their assumption about being born with these kinds of skills is totally misguided since any skill can be learned and „talent“ is literally just some mystical myth probably made up by the rich to pretend that their priviliged intellect or educated self was god given instead of it just coming from being super pampered and having enough time to learn unlike most ppl wich is certainly interesting to think about. Regardless though. Ppl keep telling me that I can‘t learn this or that or doubt me but I just find that so pessimistic and also a bit hypocritical cause it‘s mostly boomers that lack interest in literally learning anying new and kinda just exist in this weird static state of pre determinism and being put into a box you never get to look beyond. I mean its sad too in a way but I guess it‘s no use trying to help those that don‘t wanna see your side either way. It‘s still funny though. I feel like many ppl kinda don‘t want you to learn and suceed at different things cause it both may break their deterministic world view or cause they are jealous of your abilities. I had that happen too sometimes when finishing projects and friends became weirdly quiet when I told them so I just ended up not telling them much more after that and just kinda felt like they still matter to me and nobody is entitled to my success if they can‘t look past their own desire of wanting me to not win i guess. Or be more successful or whatever. But it‘s still kinda nice. Like, I came so far with my art and stuff that I can finally at leart earn myself a small amount of money to compensate for. The lack of jobs I can get due to my disability and not being too much of a burden to my family. I mean it‘s still not even remotely enough to call it a living. More so it‘s 1/4th of a living I guess but it‘s at least nice to know I can rise up the ladder since I get to be my own boss in this so I won‘t depend on a dictator that decides my salary and life basically. Wich is a worthy sacrifice to me at least so far. But it‘s still tricky ofc. Hope i‘m not oversharing here lol cause this seems like a small space and I‘m just rambling off about my experience but I really love your vids and they are cozy af so I couldn‘t help myself lol. But hey, you‘re a great educator too I‘m sure! U certainly know how to make things exciting and I appreciate that about you! So thx for that and also be proud of yourself too! We all need to appreciate ourselves more instead of the toxic constant of self critial needs to self optimize so just know that you‘re already great! And that is awesome!
When you wear your shoes, your shoes collect dirt both on the inside and outside. So that affects the mass. Probably more rubber is lost than you calculated
Excellent! Fun tune and getting rid of this "Devil" grass in a positive way is like when life gives you lemons, you make lemon aid! What about using this tall grass as a substrate component for growing mushrooms?
I think you really missed a chance to point out how pregnancy and childbirth are alsop dangerous to women. It might reduce the chance of ovarian cancer, but pregnancy and child birth are HUGE killers of women and even healthy routine pregnancies can lead to long term negative health outcomes. Yes it might reduce overall lifetime ovarian cancer, but going through additional pregnancies and risk in your 20s and 30s for a disease that has a median age at diagnosis of 63 seems like a terrible swap. Also, I think using some forms of contraception and breast feeding can also reduce the risk
You're a literal genius. You explained perfectly, with visuals, with fact, with TIME ITSELF, the concept of time, in our quaintly grand context as a species. Beyond well done!!! I can't believe I found this, almost five years after you dedicated the effort and skill to make this possible. Again. Bravo, friend!
I suffer from ulcerative colitis, I don’t think it is as bad as Crohn’s, but the embarrassment, and frequent bathroom trips, and other inflamed bowl symptoms like fatigue and such are similar. Wish you the best in this. We can manage this!
