  • The scene showing the farm (1:49) shows exactly the type of farming that can reduce runoff, improve the soil and fight global warming by locking up carbon as humus; rotational grazing. Stronger plants, healthy soil, happier animals and more nutritious food are all benefits. The only drawback is that it provides lots of enjoyable jobs.

    The dead zones are caused by runoff from lawns (fertilizer) and confinement farming (no pasture to absorb and utilize nutrients). Death to industrial agriculture

  • Asno, aprenda Inglés!

  • This doesn't make sense! I know some environmentalist that go crazy about this supplement call FrequenSea. This supplement uses plankton from the sea. Now there is people falling in line for this Global Warming theory because a pharmaceutical company wants to fertilize the sea with Iron for support plankton life in which they have been extracting for sometime now. Now it's on yahoo front page. Are people ignorant? Can we say conspiracy, not Global Warming.

  • Doesn't he look like John Lennon ?

  • NASA is awesome. The really show how endless the search for new knowledge really is.

  • check out life on mars/tubes on mars ........was pretty amazed :D

  • yes, the never go to the moon, they lies everitimes, urss has better. rusia was the first to the space.

    sorry for my bad inglish, im from argentina

  • people are only animals,god is just idea

  • Ok.. I know this question might seem weird..

    But...

    Is it possible for a universe to collapse under pressure and destroy man kind in an endless drop that leads to the end of space?

  • It depends what's outside the universe, maybe what links each universe of there are more than one.

    I doubt it would collapse though because I can't see the pressure coming from anywhere but I don't know anything about the universes framework, very few people actually do.

    I would love the big and small to be related, like neutrons having the same properties as universes etc but it's just speculation.

  • its unbelievable that people like you evolved from such organisms.

  • you're not trying hard enough.

  • I never done good things

    I never done bad things

    I never did anything out of the blue, woh-o-oh

    Want an axe to break the ice

    Wanna come down right now

  • *I've

  • You can't rhyme....

  • I want to have your babies

  • the narrator has such a clear voice it's creepy amirite?

  • This provokes an interesting question: how can we prevent or reduce fertilizer runoff? We do need to eat fruits and vegetables, but we'd be very mistaken to underestimate the value of seafood in a healthy diet--especially as a substitute for meat and poultry.

  • the desert is growing, on the see too :-\

  • we're doomed :(

  • i love phytoplankton

  • in spanish pleasee!! español porfavor-1!

  • time to learn English

  • pongan la traduccion al castellano .gracias

  • POR FAS PONGALO EN ESPAÑOL

  • gago!

  • Very good!

  • porfa pongalo en español

  • SI! lo queremos en español, por favor

  • Awesome!

    Dr. T

  • on a une nature impressionnante ... il ne faut pas la perdre...

  • Actually the more algae bloom is a good thing and dead zones are a good thing. The dead zones produce oil reserves as for instance in the Gulf of Mexico. Therefore we need to produce more pollution both in the air and on land. lol so that the phytoplankton can do their job of cleaning the environment and consuming CO2 and creating more O2. They also help sustain the shrimp industry. Nature is awesome.

  • chumbucket!!

  • Very interesting. Me like science. Regarding dead zones: Too bad our industrialized farming practices make them even more worrisome...

  • "National Phytoplankton day!!".Say that it is better global Phytoplankton day.

    I don't understand something from this video.If they will can detect "death zone",haw they will stop them?They can kill phytoplankton only whit non-organic methods

  • comment number 39 :)  this video will reach 1000000000000 million lol !

  • Woo Hoo phytoplankton!!!

    I propose we designate October 25th as National Phytoplankton Day.

    We love phytoplankton!

  • Lol yeah!! I second it! National Phytoplankton day!!

  • Their usual rhythms have only been observed for ten years in this manner. Years of mans effect does not equal 1 volcanic eruption or forest fire of natural origin. so get over youreself GANG GREEN.

  • woop nasa i love you lmao

  • i am not sure your tea is good btu you are tea good

  • Weren't there plans to use the oceans as carbon sink (or at least increase its capacity) because if it kills fishes it wouldn't make much sense.

  • Interesting video..

  • GOOGE = THE NEW NASSA!

  • LIVE NASA !!!

  • heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeel

  • yeah, how about those nuclear explosions in the ocean. Raw sewage, medical waste, oil spills, nuclear power plants, trash, war weapons, fuel cell leakage in sunken vessels, air borne contamintes....ect...ect...ect

  • Privatize NASA.

    They often do good work, but poor and middle class people should not be forced to pay for NASA. They have other priorities, like food and rent.

  • u may not think nasa doesn't do anything. But space is good. where do you think solar energy came from and being able to predict hurricanes? it saves lives.

  • And who launched the first satalite, And who needs another seven astronauts?

  • Some of what NASA does is good. I'm a sci-fi fan and a science teacher. I love space travel and high-tech. But my point is that even though a lot of what they do is good, they are a government agency, and a lot of what they do is waste. Private enterprise would be more efficient and flexible. Also, it is wrong to tax people to pay for space exploration. Taxation for non-essential things is a form of theft. Poor people have more important things to spend their money on. Privatize it.

  • Who do you think launches our defense satellites? I agree with you that we should subsidize private space ventures but how do you think these private ventures are going to explore mars? There is no money to be made there. Also the dollar spent to dollar made ratio is hugely in NASA's favor. Pure research helps to drive technology.

  • Private companies like Boeing build the satellites. Morton Thiokol makes boosters. Subcontract the launching too and NASA is privatized. We should NOT subsidize private space ventures! I never said that!

    If there is no money to be made on Mars, then maybe it is not worth doing. One day it will make sense, and then private entrepreneurs will go there. Subsidizing them now is corporate welfare.

    I'm just not willing to steal from the poor and middle class in order to achieve space dreams.

  • not to sound like a smart alec but how do you know for a fact your statement is true. peoples taxes go to all types of things. There are probably a lot of things I would pay taxes on that I don't even know or would even care about.

  • You should only be taxed for Constitutional things, or things without which we would not have a nation. National defense, courts, police, etc. All such optional things should be funded privately, or by voluntary, un-forced means. We are being fleeced by special interests who talk politicians in to giving them a lot of money. Each one is only a few dollars to us, but many millions to them. We don't bother fighting each one, but it amounts to a lot of waste. You shouldn't have to fund these.

  • I agree with your concept. but have you seen the movies aliens? I can't remember for sure but I think that was like a private enterprise. If it is a private enterprise and they put for example lets say life on mars. the whole concept of that society would be based or controlled by a corporation type life style. the government keeps a grasp on it because that techonology in the wrong hands could be vital to our national security.

  • I'm not saying that private enterprise is perfect, I'm just saying that government tends to be worse. Governments are, in fact, a special kind of corporation. They are corporations that maintain themselves as monopolies by force. At least private space exploration companies would compete with each other. If you didn't like the Microsoft Mars Station, move to Google's. But with government, escape is harder. Competition tends to keep them honest. Government tends to reduce competition.

  • with these companies microsoft and google okay these are i would say "computer nerds" so of course they were okay but if you get some stuff like some kind of crazy random examples but lets say blackwater private contracting (by the govt but they are commercial) a lot of people thought there methods were unsafe and not accountable. or exxonmobile a private gas company which made over billions of dollars in profit last year. IF you have a tycon in charge it won't matter either way.

  • Blackwater is another government-enforced monopoly, not a freely competing corporation.

    The profits in the oil industry are large, but not on a percentage of investment basis. What really matters is return on investment. If you invested a trillion $, but only made ten billion, that's only 1% profit. You'd do better in CD's. But there are over 40 industries more profitable than the oil industry on a % basis. The oil industry has undue power, but that's the fault of the politicians.

  • I don't trust the government with the power to control this technology within the secrecy of it's bureaucracy. I'd rather it were out in the open, so we could see what our government was doing. With the exception of nuclear and biological weapons tech., I am more afraid of technology in the hands of politicians than corporations. Our government is now a bigger threat to our rights and lives than are Islamic terrorists. PATRIOT Act, habeas corpus, spying on Americans... The feds are HERE.

  • you don't trust the govt? Its the only thing we know. They started space programs and the govt has been in control since it started. well i would kinda agree with your point if you say for example trains or jets. but on 9-11 it was jets the islamic terrorist used against us. a private enterprise???? If that never happened there wouldn't probably be a patriot act. kinda like no cell phones unless hands free in california. probably because of too many accidents where people were using them

  • Govt started space exploration, but the purpose was military: a PR coup against the Soviets. But Russia was going to implode anyway because of it's bad economic system.

    9/11 was an indirect result of our bad foreign policy of occupying foreign nations and meddling in their affairs by propping up dictators with our foreign aid. Before 9/11, airport security was a municipal (i.e. government) responsibility. The DHS merely federalized it.

    Hands free laws won't work either. Un-enforcible.

  • your 9/11 statement is true but missing our support for the jews as well. so even if we took all of our bases out of the middle east they still wouldn't like us because we support & believe jews have a right to live in israel. their home country. & also a big part of our economy is oil and a majority of oil goes to terrorist funds. hands free that is true & false because it sets up an accountability kind of like drinking underage and smoking pot. we know people do those things.

  • not majority but some goes to terrorist*

  • I agree. We should end ALL foreign aid. Israel can defend itself without much trouble. I'm a fan of Israel, but it is not my right to tax my neighbors to send their money to my cause. If I want to defend Israel, I should write them a check. We give more foreign aid to Islamic nations surrounding Israel than to Israel herself. Ending it would be a net benefit to Israel, and we would no longer be a target for terroristic attacks.

    Unenforcible laws erode respect for the rule of law.

  • that guy has funny looking glasses

  • man, this is the kind of videos we need in youtube. Not only entertaining, but educational. We are getting so use to clicking on videos for quick entertainment, we lose any attention spans we got.

  • Translation in Portuguese, pleaseeeee!!!!

  • altavista / babelfish = good luck :)

  • a quien le importa donde seas??

  • interezante mas problemas! q mas podria pasar!!! -.-

  • leave the earth alone :'(

  • the earth started it.....with it's tsunamis, earthquakes, tornadoes

    it's about time we got it back

  • yeah !!!!

  • Now we know!

  • whatever this theory ios right or wrong but everything shows the greatness of the creator

  • yup.... God made it all...

  • yes he did!!!!

  • I don´t get it!

  • sounds something like eutrophication to me :)

  • I never thought we'd learn this much about Earth. When I was a teenager people talked about the Ozone. We've learned so much more since.

  • Apparently there's a silent O in NASA. Not that it's a bad thing.
