Dead Zones

[bryancarrilo]

She suck my dick last time and guess what the dead zones are geting healed i went fishing at the cheaspeake bay and the grass is comeing back so we will all ways eat fish

[3nlighted]

Yes 400 dead zones and rising...15 100 views , and lady gaga has 60 millions. Just To show how pathetic humans are. Nah its moving the people from the water fronts and installing charcoal cleaning system on all aqueduc. If you dont change this pathetic path. You'll cry out later. Or should i say your kids :/

[milzeh]

She is so fit!!!!!!!!

[Duckmyster]

she is hot! hurray for biology!

[PlanetThoughts]

Some of the mouth-breather, knuckle-dragger comments here indicate that we who do care about the future of our planet should take the needed actions to improve the world, and not wait for those whose game is opposition and attempting to stir up trouble.

[priestpilot]

I'm learning about Eutrophication in a Water Quality and Treatment course I'm taking for my degree in Civil Engineering. I never really understood the process until Joanne explained it! It makes sense that most of the nitrogen released in water systems comes from agricultural fertilizers. It is difficult to control its use since farmers can have a difficult time to make a dollar as it is.

[h20vir]

Or the earth can shake like hell and destroy all man made threats.

[HelpSaveTheEarth2051]

Well if the oceans die there are still fish farms that can provide seafood.I just hope it doesn't reach that stage.

[Earthlad]

Pmsl @ stomplar good point . Nice if U could back up that statement. And may b U miss da humour of rocketboom . Is it 2dry 4 U ?

[MachineSaysNo]

Good idea Joanne!

[Stomplar]

Im so sick of this global warming BULLSHIT!!!! there is no such thing and no one can prove it exsists!! shut the fuck up about GW. its so stupid, and people make stupid arguments about it. Mars, jupiter, saturn, uranus neptune pluto murcery venus, are all warming up too. did our cars do that? Surely our cars over power the fucking sun.. get a fucking grip.

[speedcoreterrorgabba]

stomplar - i take it your a very ill-educated person.

[Stomplar]

Um yeah, because i dont believe the spoon fed BS that the media slams in our faces about global warming? that makes me ill educated? You autta get your priorities strait, and start thinking with facts. If you disagree, at least have the courtesy to enguage in discourse... ill educated lol.. troll.

[FrankieBaby212]

She so freakin cute, I love a good sense of humor!!!

[BruisedBrains]

are the vids wide screen now or is my monitor messed up?

[americangirl1325]

i would of watched it, but i fell aleep in da 1st 3 seconds(cause i watched it at 2:00 am)

[grahamsutube]

Bored me shittless watching this, better presenter and background music is needed.

[tchn339]

I wanted to say thanks. You posted this video just as I was doing a report on Harmful algal blooms and red tide. Gave me a couple citations to work with. So, Thanks!

[kahnicles]

good single message video jo

[pop17]

How long until we will be under water?

[xJaysrox]

nice info! ...I can't help but think of michael jackson when I look at you today

[DuralastTurbo]

Y do U say that? She doesn't look like Diana Ross 2 MEEE! =:D Does she moon walk??

[SJamesGray]

Yep, I'm all about that ice towing idea. Good one.

[BlackLookingGlass]

I have gathered that the earth is cooling, not warming, and other planets are also in a cooling phase. The next sun cycle is predicted to be cooler. The next ice age is long overdue. If you compare the data, global warming sounds like "global bullshit".. I love the whining, tree hugging, hippie wanna be, fruit cakes out there, that don't taken five minutes to read a few articles before picking a side.. Search YouTube for "EXTREME TREE HUGGERS" It will make you puke in your own shirt!! Hahaha..

[quampo]

you don't taken five minutes to work on your grammar

[BlackLookingGlass]

Damn your good.. You have found a rogue "n" in my writing. Now that you have proven your superior "eye spy" skills to us, we can move right along to all of the less important topics.. ;D *golf clap for you*

[quampo]

you don't know how long i have been waiting to get a golf clap

i thank you kind sir

[sstack83]

Everything you say is opposite of the truth. It is almost funny. :/

[BlackLookingGlass]

Everything I say is a lie? Than help me out by Pointing me in the direction of some information that will show me that the cycles of the sun don't play the leading role in global temperature changes throughout history..

[SabreTooth123]

sorry i gave you a thumbs down, i thought you meant everything Joanne said was a lie, which it isn't, but yeah I agree with you if that was just a response to the other comment

[DuralastTurbo]

Jo is a confused girl brainwashed 2 pimp many evil things. Perhaps some day she will find joy in exploring the infinite corruption & cruelty that is the reality of nature ~;D There is 1 rule in the universe: 'energy flows' - 'all is motion' (or is that 2 rules? HAHA) Well yes, from your bank account, into theirs - from your blood, into their belly. What do our leafy friends think of us? U can't live without killing. Embrace it as competitive adventure & C ppl as they really R =)

[SabreTooth123]

you have a strage perspective, personally I think it's an awful way of looking at the world

[DuralastTurbo]

It's not a 'perspective' / 'way of looking'. It's simply reality =) Don't B weak. C the world as it really is. It's more fun - really! I like 2 walk along the beach or whatever & contemplate nature's laws - there R rules. Not that they were 'created', but it just 'is', knowadimean'?? Change is the rule - the flow - the infinite indifference... just 'move', everything must 'go' - hurry now sold out while stocks last =;D

[SabreTooth123]

yes there are natural rules, yes we should question what is happening in this world, but we should not just accept the suffering and unfairness in this world, people are as their genetic makeup and their environment, or a supernatural being made them (other possible options as well), we don't need to live in such a messed up world, you seem to accept it and others do nothing about it, I believe there are better approaches

[DuralastTurbo]

Nature is competition - the flow. Obey the rules & U succeed. Go against nature's laws, such as hugging sharks & kissing bears (or having sex with nigs, etc.) & U will get fuk'd - that's life. Live in reality, U 'useful idiot'.

[SabreTooth123]

what are you talking about? do you even listen to yourself? and you had no reason to call me an idiot, I am the one trying to be logical

[DuralastTurbo]

[netiaz]

No.

[DuralastTurbo]

U R just a contrarian clown - not a person. Go listen 2 your rap CDs. U R also a spammer.

[tiswas666]

Actually, BlackLookingGlass, although there is still disagreement about global warming (scientists disagree on almost every hypothesis), the vast majority of meteorologists and climate physicists are in agreement that global warming is taking place.

There was a fear in the 70s that we were about to have an ice age, but that view never had significant scientific support . Modern computer simulations (the best predictors available really) imply global warming is, and will continue to take place.

[BlackLookingGlass]

Well, I agree that there may be man made climate change to some degree, but from what I have read, I don't believe it plays any significant role in the greater history of earth's changing temperature.. The earth seems to be an extremely resilient planet. Co2 has been at higher and lower levels in the past, 5 or 10 times our current levels, and has not been shown to drive climate change. The temperature of earth has changed greatly in recent and ancient history without the help from human beings.

[tiswas666]

It's true that CO2 has been at very different levels in the past (after all, when life began, oxygen was absent from the atmosphere) and has not in the past been linked directly to climate change. The significant difference, though, is the rate at which the carbon dioxide levels are changing at the moment. They are changing at a much higher rate than EVER before. This is causing much quicker, if not necessarily greater, temperature changes than the planet has EVER had to adapt to before.

[BlackLookingGlass]

I just can't find any information that would lead me to believe that human beings are contributing climate change that is effecting anything in any significant way.. It's like seeing small ripples on a enormous wave.. You may see them close up, but they are not going to change the shape or direction of the larger wave.

[tiswas666]

well.. I can't really say anything more than that most of the people who've dedicated their lives to trying to understand these ripples and waves feel that there is considerable evidence that humans are contributing to climate change. having little background in this area of scientific research, and having read few papers on the subject (I assume you're in the same position as me), it's hard to justify your opinion vs theirs..

[BlackLookingGlass]

You say "humans are contributing to climate change", but truly how much are we contributing? I don't believe that we have any driving effect on temperature change. Could you throw a rock into a small pond and see a significant change in water level? And even if you could measure the change in water level to some degree, would the rock kill all the fish? I doubt it.. You also say "it's hard to justify your opinion vs theirs.." Well, I simply believe the evidence is greater for my point of view.

[tiswas666]

Well how much understanding of the evidence do you honestly have? The IPCC's (look them up on wikipedia) consensus in 2007, which stated that it was 'Most of the observed increase in globally averaged temperatures since the mid-20th century is very likely due to the observed increase in anthropogenic (human) greenhouse gas concentrations' is fairly unambigous.

Please explain what you feel that you know that a committee of hundreds of objective, specialised scientists missed.

[BlackLookingGlass]

Well, it sounds like your setting it up as though the scientific views that you support, and the IPCC support, are all unquestionably correct.. Although, to be fair, I'll look into the whole thing some more. I just don't believe (regardless of if we have had a small documented impact as of recent) that any human created warming of the earth will play a truly significant or life threatening role in the control of our future climate. But as I said, I'll look further in to it.. I'm no scientist..

[DuralastTurbo]

I heard someplace that Mt. St. Helens alone spewed more 'greenhouse' crap than all of human industrialization in history. But of course, the sun is the big daddy of it - it's not always the same. Sometimes it's brighter or dimmer. Carbon levels FOLLOW temperature changes, & CO2 is only something like .04 ('point zero 4' = 4/100 = 4%) of the atmosphere N E way. Air is mostly nitrogen.

[MaybePensive]

If you ignore the problem it will go away.

[monkeymac3]

Dang, pollution is gonna take away mah seafood D:

[Yarcofin]

What global warming. The world has been cooling for the past 5+ years...

"Inject chemicals into the clouds" - Great idea. Fix one chemical disaster with MORE FUCKING CHEMICALS.

[elSitt]

'Ban hydrogen dioxide 2!'

Ban HO2 ? Never heard of it.

But I'm glad nobody wants to ban H2O (DiHydrogen MonOxide)

[PrivateSlacker]

I'm a big fan of DiHydrogen (H2) Monoxide (O) -> HOH

I use it everyday.

I also like its alter ego Hydrogen (H) Hydroxide (OH) -> H-OH.

Hydrogen (H) DiOxide (O2) sounds dangerous.

H-O=O: I suspect a radical is in there somewhere.

Call Homeland Security !

[TrueCourse]

What happened? Video is no longer available! Ugh :(

[Tripp393]

OH NOZ!

[DuralastTurbo]

I like how they refer to nitrogen & the promotion of algae growth as causing a 'dead zone' LoL Plants LOVE nitrogen (& everything ultimately lives off plants ;) Don't worry, we can always ban nitrogen to 'save the planet'. Yes I know it's 80% of the atmosphere & all, but if we commit ourselves aggressively to the righteous 'war on nitrogen', all the slave biomass (you) can prosper in blissful equilibrium :) In the meantime, another tax will do? OMG HAHA the 'poop tax' is comming! LOL!!

[mr0myster]

You do realise the difference between nitrogen and nitrates? And that the term "nitrogen content" doesn't necessarily refer to diatomic nitrogen specifically?

[DuralastTurbo]

U R nit-picking 2 try & construct a fallacious red herring argument.  Regardless of the cause, the chick is saying scientists R bitching that there is 2 much life (algae) in coastal dump regions. Algae = life. Algie CREATES oxygen. Fishies n' stuff breathe oxygen, & eat plants. Excess plant life = EXTRA sea creatures, not less. Sure there will B some exceptions that tax-pimp propagandists exploit, like some creature that doesn't like algae, but more life = good. Think 'food chain' ma' man =)

[hounddog21]

Nice maps and charts. Your'e one of my favorite news sources.

[Tanru2000]

Oh they'll have seafood - it'll just be "seafood" - i.e. that unidentifiable "seafood" found in things like fish-sticks and fish-cakes.

[Kation666]

oh noes i live in portugal

[aidilfbk]

LOL

*mouthing words "That was my idea"*

[Probewitch]

Just strap an outboard motor to the iceburgh, and on your way. LOL Seriously; if the lower ecosystem is in trouble, guess what we humans are!

[TimeDawg]

Very informative. I'll be sure to get as much seafood as possible. :p

Now about that Mudkips Know your Meme video...

[aidilfbk]

Yes yes, we need a Know Your Meme on Mudkipz

[QuasiEvilScott]

I like Joanne's idea.

No more sushi? Oh noz!

-Qes

[Artege]

ScienceBoom! Hooray.

[tartsphere]

Life will find a way, something is going to evolve and flourish in these dead zones, mark my words.

[5998b]

I care! 2ND

Who cares?

[Pyr0clasam]

I DO ! I AM THE KING OF FIRST !

[TECHKLEC]

You must be very proud of your amazing accomplishment.
