What Earth in 2050 could look like - Shannon Odell



What could our future world look like if we continue to do nothing about climate change? Take a look at the possibilities. -- While we’re already feeling the devastating effects of human-caused climate change, governments continue to fall short on making and executing emissions pledges that would help thwart further warming. So, what will our world look like in the next 30 to 80 years, if we continue on the current path? Shannon Odell offers a glimpse at Earth's possible future.

Odometer and the Radius of Earth



I was 'debating' a flat earther on TikTok a while ago, and he mocked my claim (actually a statement of fact) that you could measure the radius of the earth with the odometer of your car. Here I show how it is done, and we all can do it together.

The Greek myth of Demeter's revenge - Iseult Gillespie



Dig into the Greek myth of Mestra and her father King Erysichthon, who angered the gods and was cursed with insatiable hunger. -- Mestra, princess of Thessaly, was far from home. She had watched her father, King Erysichthon, plunge into a ruin of his own making. Now, to save himself, he’d sold his own daughter to the highest bidder. But Mestra refused to accept this fate and began to plan her escape. Iseult Gillespie shares the Greek myth of Mestra's bid for freedom. Lesson by Iseult Gillespie, directed by Vitalii Nebelskyi, and action creative agency.

These Solar-Powered Carnivorous Flatworms Divide and Conquer | Deep Look



Tiny marine flatworms called acoels hunt for prey in coral reefs. They're referred to as “plant-animals'' because they've got a partnership with photosynthetic algae that live inside of them. But this acoel's real superpower is its ability to regenerate any part of its body! PATREON SPECIAL OFFER: https://www.patreon.com/deeplook DEEP LOOK is an ultra-HD (4K) short video series created by KQED in San Francisco and presented by PBS Digital Studios. See the unseen at the very edge of our visible world. Explore big scientific mysteries by going incredibly small. --- Researchers are studying a species of tiny marine flatworm called an acoel that has some surprisingly amazing abilities, despite being smaller than a grain of rice. “They have two very obvious superpowers,” says Dania Nanes Sarfati, a researcher at Stanford University who studies acoels. “They are able to regenerate any part of their body. And they also have a very intimate relationship with algae that they keep inside their bodies that they exchange energy and other nutrients with. When you look at them, they just look like a little worm, but if you look inside you can see there's this green photosynthetic algae that are living between the acoel cells.” In addition to catching prey to eat, acoels will flatten themselves out in sunny spots so that their photosynthetic internal algae can absorb sunshine. “It’s like they’re on vacation every day,” says Nanes Sarfati. --- What are acoels? Acoels are a group of small, simple, soft-bodied flatworms that mostly live in marine environments. Acoels lack a permanent but they do have a mouth that they use to eat prey. --- What do acoels eat? Acoels eat tiny prey like planktonic plants and animals that float in the water. An acoel will expand its head like a net to engulf its prey and then jam its meal into its mouth. --- How do you pronounce acoel? Acoel is pronounced “a seal.” ---+ Find additional resources and a transcript on KQED Science: https://www.kqed.org/science/1991736/these-solar-powered-carnivorous-flatworms-divide-and-conquer ---+ For more information: Acoels by Sarah J.
