"7 Students, 6 Teachers, 5 Scientists... ONE Mountain" (07:02)
"7 Students, 6 Teachers, 5 Scientists... ONE Mountain: The 2012 GLOBE Learning Expedition to Mt. Kilimanjaro" (07:02)
In late September 2012, a team of 7 Students, 6 Teachers, and 5 Scientists from the USA, Japan and Russia... plus a small army of local Guides and porters joined forces to climb Mt. Kilimanjaro, the highest peak in Africa and the tallest free-standing mountain in the world. This was a great adventure, for sure, but it was also an opportunity to implement several of the GLOBE program's protocols (Land Cover, Soil Temperature, Hydrology, Clouds, etc.), showing the students how authentic scientific investigations are done. Comments from both teachers and students show the value of making science both challenging and serious fun. (Please note that as an international program, GLOBE uses the metric system, so all altitudes cited in this video are in meters.)

my bio professor sent me here (this was very fascinating and optimistic)
Hiya Bio teacher sent me here! last assignment before graduation!
😂
good job
Why the formation of fossil fuels is a very slow process?
The plane at the end made me chuckle 😅
Minosvky particles? Helium 3? Where? This doc is fake news
I learned allot of rings
Blah blah
c02 is good for humans, low c02 is very bad and can lead to an ice age. c02 during the cretaceous was 11,000 ppm today in 2023 is 4000. so yes, c02 is good and means warmth. warmth means growth, health and food.
Actually CO2 is only 0.04% which is about 400 parts per million. I agree with you that CO2 is very good for life in general. In fact plants require at least 0.02% or they die and so would we without that food source. I believe that the long term average of CO2 is 10x higher than it is today. I wish that people would not buy the panic that the likes of Al Gore has been predicting and yet water front property is still at a premium price and the same doom predictors are buying the same properties that they say will be flooded in the next 5 years! Agenda 2030 deems Intensive Farming as unsustainable so mass hunger is their plan. I hope we refuse the Digital money that will restrict our Carbon footprint as it is bad science which will cause mass poverty and hunger whilst the Sovereigns will continue to have abundance.
How come Greenland had record ice formation in 2022 yet co2 still rising????????😢
This video is full of lies and false implications. Humans produce about 3% of the CO2 produced on earth annually. The rest comes from the biosphere.
here’s a non biased climate scientist clearly debunking the climate emergency scam: m.czcams.com/video/qJv1IPNZQao/video.html
Look up: "fletcher prouty explains invention and use of term fossil fuel"
What happens when something dies? It's corpse is consumed until only bones are left. So how do bones turn into oil? Please explain. I don't know where oil comes from but it sure isn't dead dinosaurs.
No such thing as fossil fuels, it was a lie started by the Rockerfeller family. We are not running out of oil anytime soon it is the second most prevalent liquid on planet earth . Do your own research before you believe this garbage
💀☠
Fake news and completely wrong no plants have ever been found below 15,000 feet below the earth but we drill for oil at 30,000+ your theories are lies
You so slow Cuh 💀
@@GenesisOviedo-dq3xm genius 👏
Its not Fossil Fuels, its just Fuels, oil regenerates and is the most abundant liquid on earth after water.
How do I cite this in APA?
Basically, humans have clogged, blocker, obstructed heated, baked, drowned, poisoned green plants’ anilities & will to cleanse, cool, nourish, nurture all life on earth. Humans need green plants to activate our many critical cycles of life, flows of life to keep life’s amazing nurturing buffering genetic genius alive & functional enough to heal our broken world. Please. Thanks.

Fabulous! Make this required for all students, for all persons.
Wow interesting 🧐
So it'll change the composition of the atmosphere to something similar to what it was when life was still flourishing and those fuels were first formed. And this is a problem that warrants restricting life-giving energy to billions of human beings for... What reason exactly?
You're missing two key facts: 1) is the environment hundreds of millions of years ago optimal for humans' life NOW? 2) since hundreds of millions of years have passed and trillions of organisms have lived and died since then, adding back all that carbon dioxide back on top of the changes now does not provide the same condition.
today 2022: around 20% of co2 emitted by humans has been emitted since the airing of this documentary.
Came here because it had a wierd ending
Fossil fuel rocks! Let's burn is all
Wait, so is there a term for the liquid of organisms that have been decomposing for only 1 million years instead of hundreds of millions? How would you differentiate? I have a hard time believing this theory.
Lol me here in 2022 for homework
380 ppm. Those were the days.
Its amazing how they lie with impunity.
All these comments are talking shit about the creator meanwhile I’m trying to do my physics homework 👩🦼
I wonder what would happen if he liked the old ice.
Okay dumb question but if old air is actually trapped inside those samples of ice: if a person cut one open would they technically be breathing in air from Earth's past?
Not if I lived 100,000 years ago! I am an extremely gassy person, and you'd surely be smelling my personal "byproducts of digestion". So, technically speaking, you'd be gagging on my farts if you cut open this ice...had I been alive....back then. It would create a new expression if that, theoretically, could happen: "Hey, who cut the ice?" Everyone would be saying that by now if it "theoroetically" happened. Of course, it could be used quite interchangeably with the old expression, "Hey, who cut the cheese?" On the other hand, because I am a really gassy person, I am actually the sole cause of climate change. I'd say I'm sorry, but it's really not my fault. God made me this way, so take it up with him. Okay, fellow youtube traveler and science luvr, I hope I sufficiently answered your very technically challenging question. Whoops. I just let one fly. And.....there goes another glacier.

Ayo, here because of my bio professor
This guy sounds like a King of the Hill character haha great video though
Great...
So we're just putting the CO2 back into the atmosphere? We're not doing some weird, totally new thing? The earth was an oven. The trees and stuff sequestered the CO2 and made it cooler and liveable. Now we're putting the CO2 back into the atmosphere turning it back into an oven. But soooo much CO2 has been released by burning fossil fuels. Which means sooo much CO2 was out there before the trees pulled them into the ground. So how did these living things survive when so much CO2 and consequently a very high global temperature was present?
czcams.com/video/zSff0pwc1Xc/video.html
What utter BS. You teach this crap? The single largest source of CO2 is the oceans. FYI, there are thousands of volcanoes under water. Vastly more than above water. Not saying they are the major source, just pointing it out as you missed just about everything else. Bottom line, the burning of "fossil" fuels is doing nothing more that re-releasing previously existent CO2.
no one cares
Very useful video.
My environmental science teacher sent me here.

The military says they are trying to lower emissions, what a joke. Of course they are not trying.
