It's Not the carbon fuel economy. It's the Combustion fuel economy that's the problem. Excluding combustion of green hydrogen. Combustion is and always will be a planetary Terraforming of the earths 3.1 billion year old manufacture by Ocean Oxygen to earth atmosphere from the Ocean Archaea (older than bacteria). They are tiny but many and still do the same job in 2024. No it's not the earths land that makes all the O2 and never was please research data now. The earth was terraformed before any land plants existed fool. God, he is always watching us. Please forgive us we are the many fools. All fools rise and kneel before God. Done deal.
When you mix music and narration please don't push the music sound level higher than 70% of the narration sound level. If the narration is 100%, the music should never go higher than 70%. This is because the music and the narration are not perceived in the same way in our brains. The brain makes no effort to understand music as it makes to understand words. Because of this, when there's a sudden change from talk to music, the music will appear to be much louder than talk, even if technically it isn't. Thank you for your hard work it is much appreciated.
The Cambrian Explosion is when bones, shells and other hard body parts first evolved. It's no surprise that we find so much life from that era as previously all life had stuff bodies which didn't fossilize as readily.
and then he was was being eating by a dinosaur he realized his goofy ass should have given up fruits and vegetables and stuck to a period where he was the dormant lifeform
What we can learn from this is that we should quit ignoring people when they tell us something... like seriously, all these dang fossils going ignored because people decided that the way things have been must be how it has to continue to be...?
This is why, as scary as changing environments are, they're also quite important. Huge adversity is why life has gotten as far as it has. If everything stayed the same, evolution would more or less halt.
The Earth is flat before the Rise ofthe PlateTectonics that cause Earth seems round or sphere. It is still flat but is seen round and sphetical due to the undulating landforms that produces landscapes.
I'm sure prebiological systems wouldn't hold onto heavier carbon either- what's to say forms like those fossils or the carbon 12 found in that zircon weren't caused by coacervates or viruses?
In a way we cant quantify if someone is having a conscious experience by looking at the brain besides general activity in electrical impulses but we can detect that with most animals to some degree. This makes me think about if "human levels of consciousness" is just an emergent intangible property after a specific level of complexity is reached which begs the question if a tiny human brain can be aware as a collective of neurons but not the individual neurons whos to say that mycelial colonies after a certain size gain their own awareness as an emergent property and their would be no way to measure that internal experience just pike we cant prove or measure a persons internal experience but because we are the same we evolved to be able to understand each other but wed have no evolutionary reason to be able to communicate with any other animals let alone different kingdoms of life entirely. Just kakes you wonder in the case of aliens would we even be able to tell they are intelligent because it could be so foreign to our comprehension because to me fungus are basically the closest thing to trying to understand an "alien"
there is no connection to human life, only a connection to nature, an intelligence named instincts, like babies, who have impulses that makes them know things they have never learned.
So off-putting when a documentary is just rammed full with superlatives, grandiose metaphors etc. Makes the actual wonder invisible amongst all the forced drama.
This is fascinating but I do field work around Malheur, and it is not a lush, wet, rainforest-esque area. That's the high desert. There are lots of forests, sure, but they're dry and miserable hot in summer. I know Oregon and Washington are notorious for being wet... along the coast. come inland of the Cascades and it is very arid. The wet parts are just a thin strip along the edge of the continent.
Wonder if the snowmelt was seasonal or due to increasing global temps. It’s fascinating the ways in which climate crisis has been beneficial for science.
