      Liberals so stupid they don't understand air is made of 78% Nitrogen, 21% Oxygen, and 1% Hydrogen with 0.05% CO2. To top that off, 99.999999999% of 0.05% of CO2 comes from microorganisms. Every square inch of Earth is microorganisms. Why do you put food inside freezers? Cold temperatures prevent bacterial growth. Same thing with Earth. Temperatures go down, bacterial growth goes down than CO2 goes down and vice versa. Look at any global temperature graph of Earth in billions of years. Temperature always had cyclical change. Always!!. Liberals soo stupid they don't understand what the sun is, which is a fusion reaction of two different isotopes of hydrogen tritium and deuterium overcoming nuclear bonds with gravity, which is extremely inefficient and causes temperature to change.

      Hi, Jesus loves you. Repent and believe in God, He will return and it won't be too late! The prophecies are being fulfilled, behold, soon Jesus will seek his church. WE DON'T HAVE TIME TO PLAY ANYMORE! Jesus Is Real, Reigns and Lives. He loves us, don't get lost and wander around the world, but go to Christ and lay down all your burdens. God is our Safe Haven, the One who saves us, corrects us and loves us. I wanted everyone to feel what I already felt, The Great Presence that the Holy Spirit offers us. He suffered, bled and gave Himself for you!!!!! Don't be ungrateful, repent before the time is up!

      Oi, Jesus te ama. Arrependa-se e creia Em Deus, Ele Voltará e não será tarde! As profecias estão se cumprindo, eis que logo Jesus Buscará sua igreja. NÃO TEMOS MAIS TEMPO PARA BRINCAR! Jesus É Real, Reina e Vive. Ele nos ama, não fique perdido e vagando mundo a fora, mas vá até Cristo e deposite todos seus fardos. Deus É O nosso Porto Seguro, Aquele que nos salva, nos corrige e nos ama. Eu queria que todos sentissem o que eu já senti, A Presença Grandiosa que O Espírito Santo nos oferece. Ele sofreu, sangrou e Se Entregou por você!!!!! Não seja ingrato, arrependa-se antes que o tempo acabe!

    I love the dissemination of scientific facts like this! Plus Otters are super cute so it's easier to get people to advocate for them, than more maligned keystone species like wolves (if I recall the reintroduction process was met with a lot of backlash for Yellowstone, with ongoing tensions).
    Though even with the recovery of kelp forests, our impact as a species on our planet needs more radical change towards more eco-friendly and eco-conscious methods, and we're moving towards it (but perhaps not as readily as we should be). Though personally I worry that recovering kelp forests would be seen by big business and political circles as a sort of "carbon absorbtion" that would mitigate or allow the expansion (or 'freeze' the reduction) of fossil fuel use by slapping a "we've reduced carbon emissions globally by such and such".

      @@samuelshin593 first of all I have no idea what prompted you to reply to my comment to KP and not you in this fashion. Second if anyone is stupid I dare say it would be you. Insulting ppl you don’t know isn’t a very intelligent way to behave. Nobody is disputing the earth goes through cyclical changes in temperature. But none of us want to be wiped out due to the one we have caused. BTW, I’m a liberal. And I’ll bet KP probably considers herself so as well. I could be wrong but I have a feeling that’s where this rant came from. You are assuming she is a liberal. Also keep in mind, small minded creature that global warming IS NOT A LIBERAL AGENDA! It’s real, it’s happening and it’s not just liberals that realize this. And she is a marine biologist I’m sure she understands how CO2 exchange happens.

    In the UK, the government allows privatised water companies to pipe sewage into rivers and streams. Also, many environmental protections are going to be junked in order to allow increased building onto green belt land in order to promote "growth", so once again, profit comes first ahead of our ecology and environment....and always will until the lesson is learned.... hopefully not before it is too late!

    I have a story...it would take me a LONG TIME to explain all the different angles and problems about why sea otters simply cannot come further south than Point Conception in California. I'll try to give some pieces (I could go for hours...). It's a story worth telling and it is COMPLICATED. It makes me angry that sea otters cannot legally exist (for all practical purposes) in the Channel Islands National Marine Sanctuary (near where I live in Ventura County) per the agreements signed relating to the (mostly failed) reintroduction of Southern Sea Otters to San Nicholas Island in 1986. The "where sea otters are not allowed" corresponds to the shipping lanes for the port of Port Hueneme. The 1986 San Nicholas Island reintroduction was prompted by the 1969 Santa Barbara Oil Spill that made prople take note that maybe it would be better to have a reserve population elsewhere in the state in case of an ecological disaster in the few coastal counties (mostly San Luis Obispo, Monterey, and Santa Cruz) where basically the ENTIRE Southern Sea Otter population lives. Petrochemical development in Santa Barbara County (including the leaking orphan well Holly off Goleta) makes it gross to go to the beach and has created a lot of pollution that would be dangerous for sea otters. The ports of Port Hueneme, Los Angeles, and Long Beach have shipping traffic and more pollution. There is a massive DDT dump site they have no idea what to do with off Catalina Island (which is giving the sea lions cancer at an alarming rate). There is more intense petrochemical development off the Los Angeles County and Orange County coasts. The military is huge further down the coast in San Diego County.
    There simply is no place for sea otters to exist due to the activities of human industry and pollution, not even in a national marine sanctuary and its corresponding national park.
    And all those "beautiful" beaches of Southern California are actually hiding the hidden horror of an urchin barren. The entire Southern California surf culture is due primarily to the absence of sea otters, because without otters there is no kelp, and the legendary surf beaches would look very different if we had kelp forests like the Central Coast.

    Thank for making this video. I teach third grade and I am currently reading the book, Odder by Katherine Applegate, aloud to my class.
    I took a break from the book yesterday because I needed a resource to better explain the importance of sea kelp to the otters. This video touched on every point I was making, including making that connect with the reintroduction of the wolves of Yellowstone. My students were able to connect it all together and I believe that the story of Odder has made a big impact on how they see the world around them and this video just solidified it for them. It’s so important for our children to understand all of this, so thank you for what you do. 🦦❤

      And if your students are interested in getting involved, I highly recommend the Elakha Alliance. They really are on the forefront of sea otter reintroductions to the west coast.
