A British chemist in Ethiopia

[DJBUBBLEGOOSE]

YOU'RE A GOOD MAN PETE. THE WHOLE TEAM AT NOTTS UNI REALLY DESERVE SOME KINDA RECOGNITION / AWARD FOR THEIR CONTRIBUTION TO PUBLIC AWARENESS & INTEREST IN SCIENCE (WITH PToV & 60SYMBOLS)

DR. POLIAKOFF & ALL THE FOLKS ARE VERY VERY LIKEABLE PEOPLE (UNLIKE ALMOST ALL TEACHERS I'VE EVER HAD) & ARE REALLY GREAT AS INFORMAL TEACHERS.

conductivity is productivity. The internet is a great equalizer.

[TheSoccerifying]

What a humble guy! I like your work...

[SianChristina]

sounds as if he does a little bit of georaphy too, good man!

[Yony42]

To be honest I've seen radios in many labs of different types in holland as well.

[sandarge]

Wow, nice to see Dr. Chebude

[SELAMHULAGZA]

Thank you for doing this.

[brafel11]

nice work! well addis isnt well planned city from the beginning and effects of pollution from industries and automobiles get worse with much of city planning yet to b done. i hope u might go to other cities as well cos it is very likeable out of addis and u might find related areas of interest in the untrodden nature over there.

[ipodluvr23]

Thank you! i learned more on the country i had thought i had known--- this video proved me wrong! : ) well i was well aware of the polution, and in the mornings some house hold have a incence-like smoke in their homes its called bakk-houuur, It is very strong(the one used at my house hold) and quickly wipes out any fresh air in the room. i have a horrible memory, in which i had inhaled too much on an empty stomach at an young age in ethiopia... yes i vomited.... well thanks again , you did well

[mike7743]

heh, my buddy works in a Lab (here in the US, in a Biotech company) and radios are allowed. I'm not sure being an academic setting and in a commercial place makes a difference. anyways, what a nice video. hope you had a great time as well.

[etroticole09]

Keep doing the good work.

[motimuatit]

Have you guys seen how polluted addis looks? That worries me really and I thank pete for what he is doing .. .coz i ain't no chemist .... and have no idea how to solve this problem may be by planting trees

[chris536343]

What do you mean EVERY academic. These are just a couple of scientists who like to communicate science to the public. This is a very good way of communicating information, and they're very good at doing it.

[ponies5004]

You are right, of course. Apologies to all.

[ponies5004]

Why does every academic suddenly think they are an actor/documentary maker/Bob Geldof?

Stick to the day job.

[motimuatit]

you just have no idea, do you?

[neogam209]

Pete rocks!

[MeDanone]

I wish the best to the collaborative project. You'd been to Ethiopia. I'm so jealous. I'm definitely going there if I got the chance.

[RockMedved]

Yeah, eight minutes passed at a speed of two. You guys really know how to tell a story. Thanks!

[chris536343]

Really good video. Thanks.

[alanna4858]

Nice one. Loved the video. Thank you for recording your trip to show us.

:-) I can't get over how much I love Chemistry. I feel raging I didn't go to any classes at High School. Although, something tells me they wouldn't have made it as interesting .

Thanks again.

[LaughingManRa]

Wow, this was very interesting!

[CoolMinty]

Thats Beautiful Pete ;¬) What is in the crucible?

[aquamammal]

Pete, what is the impact of meat on spaceship Earth?

Tell us please.

[DrBones666]

Wonder what Pete does for fun there?

[esue12]

He learn about ethipian national park!

[matthew623210]

Pete rocks!

[sy1234]

She's right.. everybody loves Petey.

[OsitolovesCosita]

This is great! Good job Pete :-)

[kite973]

Great work Pete. We need more scientists like you.
