Real talk, we *have* to give up the idea of KingdomPhylumClassOrderFamilyGenusSpecies, and just revert to clades. Maybe Genus and Species have some usefulness, but its totally understandable that the complex paper was discussing what the heck those even are. Its sensical for SOME animals, but like... Look up a ring species, and that californian lizard, sometime. Species might not even exist as a concept. And don't get my started on the Eukaryotic Family Tree. It will destroy your idea of a kingdom and a phylum, if you look into it. It's one of my favorite things to learn about, but this is why I am a Cladist. You just can't rank that stuff into 7 neat categories! Evolution didn't progress in chunks!

I learned about diatoms from true crime of all things apparently they can figure out what body of water or even dirt you've been in by what diet tones are found on the body or around the crime scene kind of like using leaves to determine if you were in someone's backyard that has a certain type of tree. Because there are so many different diatoms and they live everywhere but there is usually specific ones found more often in certain places than others

Actually, one of the things you can figure out from diatomes is whether the victim drowned or was killed and then dumped in the water! They're so small that if you breathe water even for a short while, they will find their way into your bloodstream and eventually your bones! So if the body has diatomes in their bones, they drowned.

So, while I appreciate her offering some solace on these issue, she seemed a bit ambiguous about how tenuous our existence might be, as separate from her saying the world itself will be ok, as well as being unclear on exactly what she meant with big oil wanting us to feel helpless. Does she say this meaning big oil does this so we don't take the needed steps to fix how we live, like finding oil alternatives?

And that's not necessarily a bad thing, because it gives us communal generosity and empathy. But we have taken over far more than our fair share of the planet and her natural resources. To fix things, we gotta release some of that control and find alternatives that are good for more than just us. Which we can do, because of our blessing of self-awareness!

The diatom's shell is made of silica, basically the same material as inert sand or glass.

I feel like I can't find this kind of scientific content with a cozy, wholesome vibe anywhere else. And I just felt compelled to say THANK YOU in particular for the bit at the end of this video about Climate Doom™. I've been struggling with fighting off the doom for awhile now, in the midst of other major life stressors that've made me feel so hopeless about my own future, so the idea of our collective existential doom on top of that has been really, really hard for me... But hearing you say all of that really helped me out of a spiral today. Anyway, not to dump heavy stuff like that on someone I don't know, but I just hope you know how much good your channel is putting out there in the world with messages like this. Thank you for the work you do.

I can't remember if I commented this before or not but thank you Octopus Lady, for your message about the climate crisis. Understanding that climate change IS reversible is so empowering. Don't get me wrong it's gonna be a lot of work, but it is doable! I'm currently studying Conservation Biology at Uni and we just had a class discussion about the film 2040, discussing what parts are good and what are some criticisms of the film. During the discussion, your message popped into my mind "The earth has survived way worse than us...when you convince yourself that we've irrevocably damaged our planet you are playing right into the hands of the fossil fuel industry, they want you to be trapped in hopelessness...that means they can keep getting away with what they're doing, DON'T LET THEM. WE CAN STILL FIX THIS." There are definitely technologies out there than can help solve the problems we're facing, people are looking for solutions. Again it's going to be a lot of work but it definitely doable! You've helped switch my mindset from "Climate pessimism" to "Climate Motivation". I don't think I've felt this driven to continue pursuing my career. Thanks for being an inspiration! 🍃🐙

It helps remind me of my university and work days. I was one of those biological sciences majors that specialized in wetlands biology. Diatoms are found almost in all environments on the earth where they can find a source of water and in some cases a viable liquid. And don't for there are 3 metabolic processes and possibly more as they keep finding more about the deep sea vents. I will agree that it us so difficult to remember these metabolic processes and then they throw them on the same test so you can mix them up trying to write them down.

Encasing myself is definitely a different and strange way to address the question of the day, i can’t honestly think about what I’d make my frustule out of but tried to implement holographic things, not to mention literature and diamonds. This video with practical advice is a reassuring piece that is well done. Science expertly laid out for ye old consumer to digest.

Climate doomerism, climate apathy and blind hope exist to stop political action against polluting industries. What matters so stuff gets better is that we organise a better world on the individual, local and collective level. As an individual, you can go on a plant-based diet, change to cycling, insulate your home, use renewables and not fly. Locally, you can create and support community supported agriculture and agricultural cooperatives, ride share, create housing cooperatives according to the Passivhaus standard, and sabotage polluting industries. Collectively, you can join progressive, democratic socialist parties and left-wing labour unions and participate in the global climate movement.

Thank you for being a voice of sanity on climate change, I'm so frustrated with people hyping up the public into a panic in order to push their short term political agendas.

My mom and I fell in love with diatoms back in the 90s when National Geographic magazine had a special on them with a bunch of pictures.

Congratulations on producing such a great video on a topic I wasn't aware I wanted to know about. Thank you for sharing your love of the sea with us. I hope you grow and get the opportunity to share with more people! ❤

@yaramamin8172 Год назад

You are amazing and I’m glad I found your channel a few weeks ago! Binging marine biology from a very talented educator was not on my to-do list, but I’m glad I tossed that one out… like corals expelling dinoflagellates… ANYHOW, a classic silica frustule for me please! Would probably ✨sparkle✨

@ObsidianFallen Год назад

Honestly the more i learn about stuff like this the more i see how much the earth is ok and that there are actually more solutions that could be created through using things like this and focusing on these parts of the world.

Love seeing people educated about diatoms!! They are my fave little guys. This was t covered in the video but i emplore everyone to check out how they reproduce cause its kinda funny

@alexcarter8807 Год назад

Diatoms are indeed beautiful, and you can find them in any puddle. Dirty, slimy sort of places that have been that way for a while (like a puddle that's turning weird and green after a week or two) are often good places to look. And any ol' microscope can let you see them.

I went and watched the previous two videos because you suggested it in the video. I liked them. Thank you for making these videos, even if I already knew a third of what you discussed. New knowledge is new knowledge.

@LadyOfAsh9400 Год назад

Okay I did a quick comment skim and now several months after the video was published I’ll try to explain a molecular clock. Basically some parts of an organism’s genome are going to be extremely important for the continued function of said organism - stuff that codes for functions relating to basic metabolism, for instance. Because these parts are so important, mutations that occur which change the output are unlikely to be passed on (because the organism won’t survive). Therefor all the changes that accumulate in these regions of the genome are going to be neutral mutations - mutations that don’t actually change the output of that region. Since those mutations are neutral, any one mutation is just as likely as any other to be passed down and become “fixed” in a population (as more individuals in a population branch off of that original mutant parent, and you have mixing with other parents, etc). This process of neutral mutations accumulates at a pretty constant rate which is calibrated against fossil and historical records. So you can compare, say, genes for hemoglobin between horses and humans and see the difference between the two of them and get an idea of how long ago the two species diverged just based on how different these regions of the DNA are.

@scaper8 Год назад

Old video, so I don't know if you'll ever see this, but a molecular clock is basically the idea that a genome aquires mutations at a fairly standard rate. So, you can look at the number of differences in the genomes of two related things and get a rough idea of when the two lines diverged.

@elliottcoleman8225 Год назад

Saving this video for future use because it's full of so much info that I'm constantly trying to convince people of. Diatoms are EXTREMELY important, 70%+ of oxygen is provided by phytoplankton, and the world is not screwed! The planet has been through so much worse and shrugged it off after a few million years like it never happened. I feel like paleontology needs to be required in school to teach people the importance of the ocean and how extinction events were caused, and also how life recovered from those events.

@galev3955 Год назад

omg the part about "I can't tell you because I .... kinda didn't understand the papers... something about carbon?" was so relatable ^^. I had to review scientific abstracts regularly as part of a job and hooo boy, I understood some of the words in most of them lol. Reading scientific stuff outside your main area of expertise can be humbling.

You're the only channel I actually watch the other videos that you've made that you suggest to watch at the beginning!! I started watching your second dinoflagulate video and there you suggested to watch the first and I thought this one was the first, but then it wasnt so i ended up watching both 1 & 2 and then finally coming to this one.

@brianhirt5027 Год назад

Nice! I've been promoting the idea for a few years that we should promote diatome microblooms on the open ocean to drastically increase the rate of carbon repatriation. It wouldnt take much. Say a tow-behind buoy that every so often 'seeded' finely ground silica & some nitrates. If commercial freight carriers would tow them we could create little dense pockets of blooms that wouldn't last long enough to be problematic. Each seeding might create a hundred foot bloom for a day or two. Not sure on specifics, require actual testing to figure all that out and dial it in for optimizing.
