Actually, humans have already adapted to different temperatures. Usually, the closer a population lives to the equator, the darker their skin is to shield against the sun. People from warmer climates tend to have bigger noses and less fat under their skin. Of course these don't always work. It seems like humans are actually rather slow to evolve. But, if we're gonna evolve due to climate change and such, I figure people will just all be black in the future.

its so hard to understand how people can deny evolution, and then even the people who accept it cant seem to understand it... its SO simple. and it's not spontaneously growing arms
@polarspirit "Then how about blacks fucking white and making babies? Is that evolution as well?"
As crude as you've said it the answer is still yes. Evolution is:
" any change in the frequency of alleles within a gene pool from one generation to the next."
Introduction of foreign genes into a population would be a form of evolution. The baby could be more resistant to sickle cell anemia than if there were two black parents for example. Evolution is not just mutations.
@polarspirit are you refering to polar bears mating with brown bears? or are you being racist? . The first known hybrid bear was found recently and its believed that because of extensive change in habitat due to global warming polar bears are being forced to find new sources of food moving them inland and into brown bear territory.
I can't believe these idiots think it has anything to do with climate change. "Ugh guys we're running out of funding ... I KNOW!! Let's say it has something to d with climate change! HA We're genius!"
@PsychoKai97 The fact that humans are able to pass on hereditary diseases due to advances in medicine is still evidence of human evolution because there is a change. In the past hereditary diabetes was life threatening so it appeared infrequently in human populations. Today, its frequency is much higher since insulin can keep a diabetic alive long enough to reproduce. Just because this trait does not make humans "stronger" does not mean human evolution has stopped.
@Laranarutolover You do not "support" evolution? I guess evolution will be very sad about that.
Oh, and by the way, Evolution (the parts that are not simply fact) is one of the best supported theories in the history of science. We know much more about evolution than about eg. the theory of gravity.
"Evolution" and "Survival" are two distinct traits. "Evolution" occurs through mutation... "all" organisms mutate, but not all mutations survive. "Survival" occurs when the mutation "adapts" to its environment... organisms that do not adapt to they environment become extinct. The current species of Humans (Homo sapiens sapiens) are extremely adaptable... and have an outstanding chance of survival. However, considering the current Republican Presidential candidates, one might argue...
@nsx1com that's incorrect, evolution is the process of adaptation over generations, which is (in most cases) through mutation, selection AND recombination
@595o - Typical non-sequitur... in relating to the context of the video, I was differentiating between "Evolution" and "Survival". Please re-review the video.
@nsx1com 1) Evolution can also happen through recombinations (somewhere of course there need to be mutations, but not for a particular evolutionary step).
@595o - Actually, evolution and survival are two distinct traits. Humans have proven that they are able to survive in a massively wide variety of surroundings: hot, cold, wet, dry, at the Equator, at the Poles, at sea level, at altitudes, etc... they have done so by "adapting" to those environments. Now, if you would have said "adaptation" was a form of survival, you would be correct.
@nsx1com Could it not be said that evolusion is the longer term result of adaptation. After all the theory is that environmental pressures caused beneficial genetic mutations that are passed through the generations. Your genes do change from when ur born to when u die. These mutations are one adaptation after another resulting in an over all evolutionary leap. It doesnt happen through one or 2 generations. So in a way adaptation and evolution are the same thing but on different scales.
@scottasing - I agree, but only as far as saying that Evolution, Adaptation, and Survival are similar. i.e. in an ever-changing environment, only the mutations that adapt will survive.
hybridization is different from evolution. The sharks may have evolved to adapt to colder or warmer waters. This allows them to mate with a species that is genetically similar to them (they must have recent common ancestor, this is the only way a species can mate with a different species, they must be enough genetic material in common) that they were once separated from either geographically or by climate.
@Ant1Live "3) Third variable problem. If a true correlation exists, how can we be sure it's a causal relationship?"
When you know the mechanism. In case of CO2 concentration, simple experiments demonstrate CO2 absorbs the infra-red range of the spectrum. The CO2 heats up, and so does the air it forms.
CO2 concentration is one of the players. For example, water vapour is another well known green house gas, but it can also help reflect some of the light from the sun.
@Ant1Live Thanks for your interesting questions. I completely agree with Rushlimpballs, user/greenman3610 videos are very informative, and well referenced.
1. Ice core is one of the best ways, as they combine temperature with CO2 levels. The amount of certain O2 isotopes are good temperature proxies.
2. Are you asking whether CO2 is a greenhouse gas? maybe watch?v=SeYfl45X1wo answers your q?
There is no such thing as human caused 'global warming'. Why is everyone ignoring the scientists that reviewed the data Al Gore used and found it to be falsified AND missing essential data on previous ice ages and heating/cooling periods? What about all the scientists AND DATA that have proved gw to be the scam it is? Are the majority of people in idustrialized countries so stupid they believe whatever the gov and media put in front of them without doing their own research to confirm or deny?
@thezipguns - You may wish to read my comment again, as I am guessing from your response you did not comprehend what I wrote. At no time did i suggest that most scientists are wrong. Good luck on developing your reading comprehension, and I am quite willing to have a civil discussion about the matter after you have correctly absorbed the views in my comment, which I must say is quite easy to understand. :D
@JHandcock1111 You're right. Carbon emissions created by humans doesn't have an effect on climate. Good call questioning my reading comprehension when you obviously have trouble understanding scientific findings and logic, You must have been a Rhodes Scholar.
@thezipguns I wasn't questioning your reading comprehension, I determined how much you actually got from my comment from your response(Very little.). I understand the findings, as I have extensively researched both pro and con, including raw data, as should u if u wish to have a intelligent conversation about the matter. My point(once again) is the real facts are being ignored and scientists who publish those facts are being censored, demoted and fired. The public is being lied to-for what?
@JHandcock1111 GHG absorption of IR radiation is simplistic to track if you have a satellite and CO2 has a very specific absorption peak. We have seen that peak grow ever since we put the satellites up in direct relation to the amount of CO2 emitted and with positive correlation to the amount of global warming experienced. This is simple quantum chemistry of assymetrical absorption.
@MrPsychedelia101 you realize that evolution covers changes within a species as well right? You're attempting to differentiate between micro and macro evolution which as everyone should know is nonsense. This is only a religious distinction, not a scientific one.
@TheMorbidlycute It doesn't cover the changes within a species because these changes do not lead one species to transform into another.Lions may develop adaptation to a harsh enviroment, but they will remain lions, they wont transform into something else. Richard Dawkings decribed evolutionary processes as The Blind watchmaker, but do you honestly beleive that blind watchmaker, architect, or engineer can make anything?
@MrPsychedelia101 Yet again you are wrong... Changes within species over a long enough period of time lead to new species. evolution is a gradual process also it is not a blind process. The adaptations that are the most benificial to survival are passed on and adaptations that aren't are not for the simple reason that the animal doesn't live to pass on those genes.
@yvranx not always. You can have break away groups of animals that develop separately. One may change quite alot while another may stay pretty much the same as the niche they fill didnt change much requiring them to adapt to survive. that why you have so many closely related species like apes and humans ect....
@yvranx how is it a different case? 1 species does not need to be extinct in order for another species to evolve. you seem to think that in order for evolution to function the entire species has to develop exactly the same adaptations. Only a few individuals within a species need adapt as long as they are isolated from the rest of the group in order to form a new species.
@TheMorbidlycute I know that, but I'm not the one claiming that a species changes over time, creating a new species. Change does happen of course, but unless you have a speciation event, ie. a fork, I would doubt that a "new species" is created.
@MrPsychedelia101 its really not a hard concept, i fail to see why you believe in evolution over a small period of time within a species but cannot see that over a long period of time with accumulated adaptations you end up with new species.
@MrPsychedelia101 You obviously didnt bother to read that book. Dawkins was making an analogy based on a common argument used by christians that life looks to complex to be natural. Seriously... just look up the wiki. It'll dispel your ignorance on this particular claim. And yes i beileve that natural selection is the mechanism used in evolutionary processes.
@MrPsychedelia101 Lions will develop adaptions and still remain lions sure, but after enough adaptations they will no longer be recognizable as lions, they will be a new species. Is that really so hard to understand?
@MrPsychedelia101 "Shark remained the shark he dint't evolved into something else."
Nothing ever changes to anything else in evolutionary theory. Evolution is an extremely gradual process. It is like aging. Can you name the day your father or grandfather became "old?" Of course not. There was no specific day, it happened over time. The same goes for evolution.
Small changes every generation gradually produce a different species but they are all still related to each other.
@MrPsychedelia101 your ignorance of evolution is showing. Who makes the claim that in order for evolution to be true a species has to evolve into a new species in one generation?
Wow, this is one of the crudest explanation of evolution i have heard in a long time. It's good that they understand that evolution is at play here, but they really should look into it a bit more, because it's these crude explanations that make people doubt evolution... You need to explain it properly if you want people to understand you.
Natural selection: Those fit to survive in the new envorment pass on their genes because they survive better. If you survive less well in new enviroment, then less offspring from you. Obviously, those WITH those better qualities to survive have better fitness and thus get to spread offspring.
Better fitness is thus variation which leads to speciation in time. Ofcourse, no human would ever grow 6 arms since our ancestors didnt have such. BUT our ancestors had tails and we dont... anymore. ;)
@dogagas - Bull. To begin with, micro and macro evolution are meaningless words coined be creationists who can't even agree on their meaning. And there's nothing at all controversial about common ancestry - unless your dogma tells you to ignore every single piece of biological evidence.
Evolution is incredibly easy to beat. Even a mediocre undergrad can produce something in 20 minutes that evolution couldn't produce in 10 ages of the universe. Intelligence is the superior optimization process.
@DeJach To be fair though, the building blocks you'd use themselves evolved. It's like Carl Sagan said, "If one wants to create an apple pie from scratch one must first create the universe." ;)
@sammykaine Yes, the first Replicator arose from the simple and fundamental laws of physics, and it evolved into RNA which evolved into DNA. (And since then the replication method has been static until we, that is our Intelligence arisen from DNA, came along to -design-.) Counterexample of a building block that itself never evolved: rocks. (You still need to create the universe to get you and the rocks from scratch, of course.)
@yvranx Except not really. Yes, the first intelligence is the product of evolution, the superintelligence is not. It's a product of something evolution made, but that's not useful to reason about. Similarly human intelligence is a part of fundamental physics which produced evolution which produced human intelligence, but that's not useful to reason about. What matters is optimization processes, and intelligence is the best one currently in existence.
@yvranx Yes, without physics, evolution would not be possible. Yes, without evolution, humans wouldn't be here. Yes, without humans, and therefore without evolution, superintelligence won't happen. This has no bearing on the statement "evolution is easy to beat", because evolution by itself could never make a Ford truck. Homo sapiens built the first in less than 100k years or so, now we can do it in a day; that's not evolution working indirectly, it's human intelligence working directly.
@DeJach So would you agree to the following statement: "Physics is easy to beat."
I think our issue comes from another direction: I don't think it is useful to think about evolution (or physics) as something to beat. If a pilot aims his plane to the ground and accelerates, does he "beat gravity"? WGAS?
In addition, evolution does not care about intelligence, so your statement is akin to "Picasso's paintings are prettier than evolution's".
@yvranx I don't think you fully understand the notion of an optimization process. Allow me to anthropomorphize the fundamental laws and evolution for moment. All the laws "care" about (at least in quantum electrodynamics) is stretching and shrinking and spinning little arrows. They are very good at this, and nothing else. (I wish I knew where reality got its computing power.) All evolution "cares" about is increasing the copies of a gene, it's good at that and nothing else.
@yvranx So the notion of a process is what something "cares" about. Now the notion of optimization. If evolution were smarter, it'd hate mutation, and we'd just have a single gene making more perfect copies of itself. It'd also work faster. We optimize evolution's cares (and introduce some of our own) and get around natural selection and enforce artificial selection--we cross-breed plants, animals, introduce new chemicals, etc. We're not masters yet but we're getting there.
@yvranx I'm also not implying more IQ when I say superintelligence, I'm talking species-level. For example, our superintelligent descendants ought to look at modern humans the same way modern humans look at ants on the intelligence spectrum.
Evolution has simple equations behind it that we discovered over 60 years ago. So does intelligence, but they're different equations and intractable to compute directly.
climate change has had a huge effect on north dakota but because most of the people here are under educated, they are not dumb, just ill informed, they do not see it. There is so little snow that the normal winter hobbies are impossible and the high temperatures are so high people are saving money on heating.
it also appears that the human race has evolved people like dick cheney and the wall street bankers who are willing to destroy the whole human race to make another dollar to add to the billions they cant possibly need or want, except in the sense of some twisted pissing contest. you can imagine cheney and limbaugh choking each other to death in some post apocalyptic wasteland they have created. then theyre both gunned down by pat robertson seconds before he realizes theres nothing to live for.
humans arent as dependent on evolution as other animals. when we want to go into space, we dont have to evolve the capability, we put on a fuckin space suit. the same way we put in air conditioning or heat or fur coats or dog sleds, etc, etc. the main threat to our existence now is the republican party. it appears humankind has not evolved enough intelligence to be able to communicate to christian fundamentalists that they are electing people who want them to perish in slavery.
I think this is more of an adaptation than a evolution. We as human can live in a winter part of the world then couple years after living there so long you move to Egypt for some reason and be extremely uncomfortable however you adapt to the weather change shit even the time zone change and adapt to it. Also I would like to say Cent mention hairy mutation in the hopes that he has been part of the hairy evolution to survive cause hes probably a hairy man.
Since you all have it all figured out then you don't need my input. Hopefuly one day before its too late people will figure it out.....its the hisyory of man to figure it out when its too late. Good luck!
Did they say that they decided to breed with each other because they needed to adapt? So the sharks are picking mates based on what genes they want for their offspring? lol
Try Bio101 guys
They could migrate to a different area that had more favorable water temps and encounter other sharks and interbreed.
Ok Cenk here's the deal: we love you & everything, yada yada yada. But how about - for every ten political articles you read, you also read one chapter of The Selfish Gene.
The next major step in human evolution is going to be the merging of us with our technology. I think we'll be the first species on the planet to accomplish evolution by design, as opposed to evolution by natural selection. It's gonna be some wild stuff man! I could say, watch TYT in my field of vision while I'm walking around a park. Maybe, I hope so that'd be sweeet.
@dr1094 it was Mae Whitman's former housekeeper talking about her firing when Whitman was running for governor of California back in 2010 at a press conference represented by Gloria Alred no less
@shango02005 You should definitely read that book if you're interested in the theory of evolution. Changed my whole perspective on the fundamentals of the theory.
Climate change is a part of evolution Ana. It changes the "preferences" of natural selection so that now animals who are better adapted to this new climate survive and breed and those who aren't, don't. Then the subsequent generations have mutations and when the mutations make them better suited to the new climate then those survive and all of these pile up across time and geography creating an ever increasing variety of life forms, and that is evolution in a nut shell.
@pistolp91 In 500 characters? Is this supposed to be a joke?
But for starters, Steve summed it up pretty well. There is no direction to evolution. It's not "If this and this happens animals will evolve to deal with it". It's closer to "If this and this happens animals who through an earlier mutation are better suited to survive, survive and the others die out or get bred out".
@pistolp91 A good example is cold resistance. We all know people who walk around in T-Shirts in November but it's no advantage in a mild climate.
But in the ice age that resistance would have allowed them to hunt in the winter months. They would have survived the winters even if other starved and would have attracted more mates (Somebody with food is attractive when you are starving) and produced more offspring.
The trait has already evolved but nature does not select for it.
@joi12345678 i get that its TYT, but what the fuck? this is like MTVing news, whether you'd like to admit it or not. this is massaging the progressive muscle and laughing at conservatives or whatever disagrees with that view. That's horrible.
Humans are evolutionarily stagnant because there is no more pressure to cause natural selection and everyone has a chance to breed. If I had a kid I would choose the best genetics for him or her even if they weren't my own, but I still think it's wrong to force people to do that so until we advance far enough in genetic engineering we will not improve on the biological level per capita.
@TheColin42 Huge changes take millions of years, but evolution happens every generation by definition. Evolution is simply genetic change over time in populations.
Wait, aren't these sharks just like Mules? They reproduce together to make stronger offspring, but the offspring can't reproduce themselves. Let's wait a few years before we call this evolution. If the hybrids can reproduce, then we'll talk about evolution
Thumbed up because I found it funny, even though the discussed science was bad.

As crude as you've said it the answer is still yes. Evolution is:
" any change in the frequency of alleles within a gene pool from one generation to the next."
Introduction of foreign genes into a population would be a form of evolution. The baby could be more resistant to sickle cell anemia than if there were two black parents for example. Evolution is not just mutations.

@polarspirit are you refering to polar bears mating with brown bears? or are you being racist? . The first known hybrid bear was found recently and its believed that because of extensive change in habitat due to global warming polar bears are being forced to find new sources of food moving them inland and into brown bear territory.

@PsychoKai97 The fact that humans are able to pass on hereditary diseases due to advances in medicine is still evidence of human evolution because there is a change. In the past hereditary diabetes was life threatening so it appeared infrequently in human populations. Today, its frequency is much higher since insulin can keep a diabetic alive long enough to reproduce. Just because this trait does not make humans "stronger" does not mean human evolution has stopped.

"Evolution" and "Survival" are two distinct traits. "Evolution" occurs through mutation... "all" organisms mutate, but not all mutations survive. "Survival" occurs when the mutation "adapts" to its environment... organisms that do not adapt to they environment become extinct. The current species of Humans (Homo sapiens sapiens) are extremely adaptable... and have an outstanding chance of survival. However, considering the current Republican Presidential candidates, one might argue...

@595o - Actually, evolution and survival are two distinct traits. Humans have proven that they are able to survive in a massively wide variety of surroundings: hot, cold, wet, dry, at the Equator, at the Poles, at sea level, at altitudes, etc... they have done so by "adapting" to those environments. Now, if you would have said "adaptation" was a form of survival, you would be correct.
nsx1com 1 month ago
@nsx1com Could it not be said that evolusion is the longer term result of adaptation. After all the theory is that environmental pressures caused beneficial genetic mutations that are passed through the generations. Your genes do change from when ur born to when u die. These mutations are one adaptation after another resulting in an over all evolutionary leap. It doesnt happen through one or 2 generations. So in a way adaptation and evolution are the same thing but on different scales.

hybridization is different from evolution. The sharks may have evolved to adapt to colder or warmer waters. This allows them to mate with a species that is genetically similar to them (they must have recent common ancestor, this is the only way a species can mate with a different species, they must be enough genetic material in common) that they were once separated from either geographically or by climate.

@Ant1Live "3) Third variable problem. If a true correlation exists, how can we be sure it's a causal relationship?"
When you know the mechanism. In case of CO2 concentration, simple experiments demonstrate CO2 absorbs the infra-red range of the spectrum. The CO2 heats up, and so does the air it forms.
CO2 concentration is one of the players. For example, water vapour is another well known green house gas, but it can also help reflect some of the light from the sun.

@JHandcock1111 GHG absorption of IR radiation is simplistic to track if you have a satellite and CO2 has a very specific absorption peak.

This is simple quantum chemistry of assymetrical absorption.

Nothing ever changes to anything else in evolutionary theory. Evolution is an extremely gradual process. It is like aging. Can you name the day your father or grandfather became "old?" Of course not. There was no specific day, it happened over time. The same goes for evolution.
Small changes every generation gradually produce a different species but they are all still related to each other.

Natural selection: Those fit to survive in the new envorment pass on their genes because they survive better. If you survive less well in new enviroment, then less offspring from you. Obviously, those WITH those better qualities to survive have better fitness and thus get to spread offspring.
Better fitness is thus variation which leads to speciation in time. Ofcourse, no human would ever grow 6 arms since our ancestors didnt have such. BUT our ancestors had tails and we dont... anymore. ;)

All the laws "care" about (at least in quantum electrodynamics) is stretching and shrinking and spinning little arrows. They are very good at this, and nothing else. (I wish I knew where reality got its computing power.) All evolution "cares" about is increasing the copies of a gene, it's good at that and nothing else.
DeJach 1 month ago
@yvranx So the notion of a process is what something "cares" about. Now the notion of optimization. If evolution were smarter, it'd hate mutation, and we'd just have a single gene making more perfect copies of itself. It'd also work faster. We optimize evolution's cares (and introduce some of our own) and get around natural selection and enforce artificial selection--we cross-breed plants, animals, introduce new chemicals, etc. We're not masters yet but we're getting there.

@yvranx I'm also not implying more IQ when I say superintelligence, I'm talking species-level. For example, our superintelligent descendants ought to look at modern humans the same way modern humans look at ants on the intelligence spectrum.

Climate change is a part of evolution Ana. It changes the "preferences" of natural selection so that now animals who are better adapted to this new climate survive and breed and those who aren't, don't. Then the subsequent generations have mutations and when the mutations make them better suited to the new climate then those survive and all of these pile up across time and geography creating an ever increasing variety of life forms, and that is evolution in a nut shell.

But in the ice age that resistance would have allowed them to hunt in the winter months. They would have survived the winters even if other starved and would have attracted more mates (Somebody with food is attractive when you are starving) and produced more offspring.
The trait has already evolved but nature does not select for it.
