Where can i buy a saturn like that?
Mercury is one of the main agigtants in vaccines.
We all owe Startalk a neck for looking at that thumbnail π
There tends to be this over-emphasis about stopping deforestation of the Amazon as though that's the only garden we have on Earth. Keep that intact and we're somehow good. Attention should also be given to other regions of the planet and re-forestation efforts.
Venezuelan Amazon is also suffering eventhough it was not mentioned. The situation is even worse because the ilidal mining on Venezuela is protected by the dictatorial regime.
i was thinking on real life iif we cannot stop this at least we can create a product different from mercury that at least made the land reusable, is it posible to do that? i know is not the best solution but it can solve many problem related to the post mining but the illgal mining itself it will hard to stop since there too wie territory to cover and few people to make that job
I hope space mining crashes the market.
This is just depressing I already hate people but ffs we just can't not ruin anything
As someone from Brasil, I guarantee ya, the people from here dont care. In fact, most politics support it.
Hekkin yeah let's use our heads to save our behinds!!
Illegal or legal, it's a crime against nature.
Chuck has evolved immensely since his start on this show. If this is the real Chuck he is approaching his best self. I am so jealous.
So they talking about paying another country to not cut down trees but here in America we save on our property tax by cutting our trees down! ???? This is fear mongering. If this was as bad as they make it sound there would be Incentives to go the other way
Big fan of the son of Lionel Richie,i like this guy!
Iv ben blocked for having real opinions, i miss the real American dream.
Save the amazon! I wonder how much natural environments left in U.S. I mean everybody is looking at these forests like they were our tressure. No… This is their tressure and they will do everything they want with it. Maybe they still have it now, because they saved it in the past, not like us-ruining everything around? And what is more to say, We probably use the most of these exact resources.
This illegal mining is human entitlement at its worst.
22:29 ok, people like gold 'cause it's shiny, but the reason it's contributing to the genocides and stuff is CAPITALISM!
They kept trying to warn us in the 90s when we were kids!
Bitcoin mining is much cleaner than gold mining. It's a far superior store.of value as well.
Skyfi seems like a fantastic tool/project! Thank you all for continuing to enlighten us.

When Jair Bolsonaro was pres of Brazil, his lunacy caused a LARGE increase in deforestation AND the invasion of indigenous lands.
People like him care nothing about the world they live in. They only care about their own personal wealth.
WHO would trust someone who warned the Brazilian people against taking a COVID 19 vaccines because it was "going to turn them into crocodiles"!!
OH WAIT! I know! People whose sense of the world ONLY centers around themselves!
