I'm opening my lecture by talking about aquatic life zones, and this video shows all the pelagic ones.
Postponed video for Mount St. Helens post
May. 19th, 2025 11:33 amRejected video for Emmy Awards post
May. 17th, 2025 11:18 amI found an actual trailer to use in 'Billy & Molly: An Otter Love Story' leads nominees for Outstanding Nature Documentary at the News & Doc Emmy Awards.
I shared and linked to videos I show my students in The Wall Street Journal explains 'Why America’s Groundwater Is Disappearing'. I don't have one about groundwater contamination, so I might show this one, too.
Video for a postposted post
Dec. 20th, 2024 04:05 pmI closed PBS Terra explains 'The AMOC Might Be WAY More Unstable Than We Thought...Here's Why' with the following program note.
PBS Terra's previous video is the latest in a series that began with PBS examines the risks from a major earthquake in the Pacific Northwest and continued with PBS Terra explains 'Here's EXACTLY What to Do When the Next Megaquake Hits: Cascadia Subduction Zone' and PBS Terra asks 'What's the ONE THING You Can Do To Survive a Tsunami?' I will almost certainly cover that in a future entry, but I already have my own series of holiday and year-end retrospective posts planned through the end of the year, beginning with a celebration of the Winter Solstice/Yule. Stay tuned.
Here's the video.

Postponed video for World Toilet Day
Nov. 24th, 2024 04:34 pmI left two comments on this video.
It's literally a fundamental question, as fundament means buttocks or anus in addition to the foundation or basis of something.
It took me five days to realize that you uploaded this on World Toilet Day. To be fair, it seems that no one else noticed that, either, so I think I'll be the first to wish Kallie, the rest of the Eons crew, and the viewers a belated happy World Toilet Day!
Let's see if I remember to share this at Crazy Eddie's Motie News on World Toilet Day next year.
I left this comment: "This was the perfect video to upload on World Television Day, as it shows the significance of television to society. Since no one else has mentioned it, a belated happy World Television Day to Erica/Dr. B., all of the Storied crew, and viewers!"
I already had a video that covered this topic in PBS Eons on real paleo diets for National Fossil Day on World Food Day, but it did have good advice against eating carnivores.
Video for a postponed climate post
Oct. 12th, 2024 04:06 pmI was going to write a post around this video, but found another video I liked better for The BBC World Service examines 'How the US election could change our climate' plus MSNBC on Project 2025 and climate. I might still blog about it.
I mentioned this video in PBS Eons explains 'How Plate Tectonics Transformed Los Angeles' but had already embedded it in Kunstler, K-Dog, and I discuss prehistoric mammals for Darwin Day...
A video I should show my students
Aug. 21st, 2024 11:42 amI have lectured on sea otters as keystone species for nearly two decades, but didn't have a good video about them for all this time. Now I do.
Postponed video for World Snake Day post
Jul. 16th, 2024 10:10 amI was considering using this video today, but decided on PBS Terra on 'the invasive Burmese Pythons of the Everglades' for World Snake Day. Maybe on a future World Snake Day.
