      You might enjoy the docs at Natural World Facts. Leo Richards uses clips (with permission) from MBARI and others to create some stunning and totally relaxing videos.

    Thank you for making Japanese subtitles!
    Usually I could only enjoy the video, but this time I was able to listen to the commentary, which made it more enjoyable than usual!
    I would love to know more about them!

    Huzzah for detritivores! I hope I spelled that correctly.
    I'm curious as to the last half/third of these animals - Comparing the different clips of them in different stages, I am guessing the intestines or colons of these acorn worms are transparent and the sand-coloured structures inside their bodies are actually just the sand itself as it works through their gut?

  • @anthonychihuahua
    @anthonychihuahua Před 7 měsíci +6

    🤔 Would they be considered an aquatic "indicator species"? Similar to terrestrial frogs, owls, mayflies, etc?

    • @MBARIvideo
      @MBARIvideo  Před 7 měsíci +7

      Yes, many deep-sea animals are indicator species and it is critical for us to understand how these communities are impacted by our changing ocean.

    Worm is not a taxon, so the phrase _"more closely related to humans than to worms"_ is essentially vacuous nonsense.

      Climate refers to the general weather conditions in an area, so weather, not climate, should be changing. Unfortunately, climate change is real. Global temperatures continue to reach new records as a result of human-produced greenhouse gases, which has had devastating and destructive effects on climate.

    What are you telling us to reduce carbon dioxide? Why isn’t this video in one of the languages of China or India? We’ve reduced our emissions while they are increasing theirs. It’s not a warm environment that’s killing people, it’s the cold when people can’t afford to heat their homes. Damn cultists.

      Wondered how long it would be before the first idiotic, it isn't us, one of the biggest nations on earth, true cultists.
      You all have a part to play, and just because the video isn't available in other languages, doesn't mean they're pointing the blame at you, if you want to find them to have other channels and redub their videos into other languages, something they can't do for free, you go right ahead, otherwise keep your mouth shut and read a book.

      While I get where you're coming from, thanks to the political BS, it's more than likely he's only saying 'we' as a general encompass for everyone. You're just feeding into it by getting tilted over a couple words.

      Compare Population (2024 World meter) & energy use (consumption) per capita (2021-wiki)
      India population: 1,428 Mil. -- 7,143 kWh/person
      China population: 1,425 Mil -- 31,051 kWh/person
      USA population: 340 Mil. -- 78,754 kWh/person
      And the USA should be proud for reducing carbon emissions by less than 2%? The UK consumption is on par with China. Perhaps if we were paying anywhere close to what the UK pays for petrol(gas) then maybe, just maybe we could make a dent in our consumption which quite apparently is bigger than our waste lines.
