We'll check in on the world of science, 411 00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:32,560 Speaker 2: which I haven't checked in on since the last time 412 00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:34,960 Speaker 2: you were here, doctor Grant. I have to assume things 413 00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:39,520 Speaker 2: are going well. Just a steady march upward, up into 414 00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:42,480 Speaker 2: the right. We'll take a quick break and we'll be 415 00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:57,719 Speaker 2: right back. And we're back, and so are the Dark Ages. 416 00:20:58,119 --> 00:21:02,199 Speaker 4: Yep, yeah, I mean, broadly speaking, I guess we've entered 417 00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:06,920 Speaker 4: the reverse Enlightenment Enlightenment in the US sort. 418 00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:08,120 Speaker 2: Of like a skateboard trick. 419 00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:11,520 Speaker 4: Dude, check this out, dude, reverse faki, reverse. 420 00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:13,240 Speaker 2: Enlightenable faky, reverse enlightenment. 421 00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:17,400 Speaker 4: It's like the conservative movement is now that they're empowered, 422 00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:22,040 Speaker 4: just saying like nuh uh to well established science. And now, 423 00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:24,040 Speaker 4: you know, I feel like with Project twenty twenty five 424 00:21:24,080 --> 00:21:26,439 Speaker 4: and knowing the people who are really sort of funding 425 00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:29,600 Speaker 4: that one of the big driving forces behind defunding a 426 00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:32,760 Speaker 4: lot of scientific research is because scientists tend to point 427 00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:36,320 Speaker 4: out with factual evidence that you know, many industries or 428 00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:40,719 Speaker 4: practices are actually degrading our environment. So you get people like, 429 00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:43,840 Speaker 4: why can't I run a supercomputer that will poison the 430 00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:48,960 Speaker 4: air and waste fresh water? What do you mean carbon emissions? 431 00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:52,440 Speaker 4: How is my business responsible for extreme weather? I don't 432 00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:55,120 Speaker 4: get it. Get these people who keep getting their receipts 433 00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:58,040 Speaker 4: out of my face and that kind of what it's 434 00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:00,399 Speaker 4: it's sort of like what this whole backlash far like 435 00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:02,840 Speaker 4: this sort of capitalistic sort of like you're getting in 436 00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:05,040 Speaker 4: the way of our money making and it doesn't matter 437 00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:07,639 Speaker 4: if we're just killing the earth in the process. 438 00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:11,040 Speaker 2: So I have a simple pitch science, we need to 439 00:22:11,119 --> 00:22:16,280 Speaker 2: just start issuing these findings the way that people who 440 00:22:16,359 --> 00:22:19,320 Speaker 2: like work for CEOs do, where you basically have to 441 00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:22,080 Speaker 2: make it seem like it was the CEO's idea. Every 442 00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:26,720 Speaker 2: time you like pitch the breakthrough to a billionaire, you'd 443 00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:29,960 Speaker 2: be like, this thing that you funded a number of 444 00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:33,080 Speaker 2: years ago has borne fruit. It turns out that there 445 00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:36,600 Speaker 2: is climate change, and we have this idea called the 446 00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:42,520 Speaker 2: Bezos Climate buster for UH for fixing it BCB. Because 447 00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:45,439 Speaker 2: I just feel like the the scientific breakthroughs up to 448 00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:51,600 Speaker 2: this point are they're they're just very inconvenient and not 449 00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:53,920 Speaker 2: in line with profitability. 450 00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:57,520 Speaker 1: You're not so far off, Jack, because like I don't like, 451 00:22:57,920 --> 00:22:59,760 Speaker 1: I don't want to spill the beans. Right, So I 452 00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:03,800 Speaker 1: don't know who's listening to this podcast will be very vague, 453 00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:09,440 Speaker 1: but there are a couple of fairly large states in 454 00:23:09,480 --> 00:23:14,000 Speaker 1: the United States that are read and have like problematic governors. Sure, 455 00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:17,639 Speaker 1: and so just like think of you know some of 456 00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:20,399 Speaker 1: them are one of them in your mind. So actually, 457 00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:25,119 Speaker 1: this group of conservationists convinced a governor just a couple 458 00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:30,080 Speaker 1: of years ago, no, no, no, during the first Trump administration, 459 00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:37,520 Speaker 1: convinced the governor to protect a whole bunch of wilderness 460 00:23:38,359 --> 00:23:44,919 Speaker 1: that was unprotected, so like millions of acres, by suggesting 461 00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:48,919 Speaker 1: that it would give state pride, that the wildlife that 462 00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:55,320 Speaker 1: would use that those protected lands are wildlife that like 463 00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:59,280 Speaker 1: like represent the state. And if you have state pride, 464 00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:03,520 Speaker 1: like if you're a real person from this state, you 465 00:24:03,600 --> 00:24:09,280 Speaker 1: really care about these animals, and thus you must support like, 466 00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:13,359 Speaker 1: you know, preserving these protected areas, which means like not 467 00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:15,879 Speaker 1: developing on them, not hunting on them all this stuff 468 00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:18,560 Speaker 1: and like it was a it was a like a 469 00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:22,560 Speaker 1: reverse psychology kind of inception kind of thing. We don't 470 00:24:22,560 --> 00:24:24,840 Speaker 1: know if it'll work again, but it was major for 471 00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:25,879 Speaker 1: this one particularly. 472 00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:26,399 Speaker 5: It worked. 473 00:24:26,760 --> 00:24:29,520 Speaker 4: Wow. I mean it does make sense. We do live 474 00:24:29,560 --> 00:24:34,240 Speaker 4: in such a like politic politicians ego driven like era 475 00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:36,560 Speaker 4: right now, where it's like, oh, maybe we just make 476 00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:39,080 Speaker 4: it appeal to their sense of pride or something. 477 00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:45,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, it was part and it was like white like 478 00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:49,400 Speaker 1: like if we lost this animal, we wouldn't be us anymore. 479 00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:50,639 Speaker 3: So let's right you know. 480 00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:53,640 Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, yeah, well that's at least they can somehow 481 00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:56,160 Speaker 4: connect it in that really fucked up backwards way. 482 00:24:56,640 --> 00:25:01,000 Speaker 2: I mean, early conservationism was super racis. Yeah, like, so 483 00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:04,399 Speaker 2: maybe we just like bring it back to its roots. 484 00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:06,879 Speaker 2: You know, we're back to. 485 00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:12,240 Speaker 1: That guy early the early conservation was like wildlife over people, 486 00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:15,480 Speaker 1: which is essentially, you know, like something that I could 487 00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:16,600 Speaker 1: see rising up again. 488 00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:21,320 Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, who it was the guy who has the 489 00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:22,840 Speaker 4: part in California. 490 00:25:23,240 --> 00:25:25,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, we all know who we're talking about. 491 00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:29,119 Speaker 4: John John was like the mirror of the woods, the 492 00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:29,760 Speaker 4: mirror woods. 493 00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:32,840 Speaker 1: Yes, John here and Tody Teddy Roosevelt take out. 494 00:25:33,480 --> 00:25:36,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, because their whole life. These these indigenous people can't 495 00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:38,439 Speaker 4: fucking appreciate it like us. They need to be quiet. 496 00:25:38,440 --> 00:25:41,080 Speaker 4: And let us just look at this blank canvas really quick. 497 00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:43,400 Speaker 4: That's what conservation is. Get out of my ways. 498 00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:45,840 Speaker 2: So it needs to be connected to white supremacy in 499 00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:48,320 Speaker 2: some way in order for it to succeed in the 500 00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:51,520 Speaker 2: United States. So how do we make ok, how do 501 00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:56,520 Speaker 2: we make here's client the climate crisis a white supremacist idea. 502 00:25:56,720 --> 00:25:58,880 Speaker 4: I'm just the white people will die. The white people 503 00:25:58,920 --> 00:25:59,520 Speaker 4: will die too. 504 00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:06,000 Speaker 2: That's true. That's true. It will It will democratize socialized 505 00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:08,640 Speaker 2: death because everybody's going to and it's like we're. 506 00:26:08,520 --> 00:26:12,280 Speaker 1: Kind of well, I hope people are. Well, how do 507 00:26:12,359 --> 00:26:14,439 Speaker 1: I say this? Because it's really tragic. We just had 508 00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:18,560 Speaker 1: those flash floods in Texas and a whole bunch of 509 00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:24,080 Speaker 1: people perished in that tragedy. And kiddos, I mean just 510 00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:29,359 Speaker 1: like it is just so sensitive and beyond awful. Doesn't 511 00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:32,639 Speaker 1: matter who the people were who died. It could have 512 00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:36,800 Speaker 1: been prevented. And it was also caused by climate change, 513 00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:40,520 Speaker 1: right like, because climate change is changing weather patterns and 514 00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:45,160 Speaker 1: changing you know, all kinds of things. We're seeing tragedies 515 00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:48,760 Speaker 1: like this around the world more and more, and I 516 00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:52,080 Speaker 1: think there is a way for someone that's not gonna 517 00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:55,679 Speaker 1: be me to talk about this in a racialized context, right, Like, 518 00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:59,840 Speaker 1: this was a natural disaster that impacted a certain demographic 519 00:26:59,880 --> 00:27:04,960 Speaker 1: of people that has yet to be like tremendously impacted 520 00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:09,040 Speaker 1: about climate change. And it's scary and it's so real. 521 00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:12,280 Speaker 1: It's so real, and no one deserves to die for 522 00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:15,880 Speaker 1: any reason, in my opinion, but particularly because we are 523 00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:20,679 Speaker 1: mismanaging our climate solutions. So anyway, I do not wish 524 00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:23,680 Speaker 1: more of this on the world. But if we're all 525 00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:28,960 Speaker 1: able to see things clearly, we can really see that 526 00:27:29,119 --> 00:27:31,720 Speaker 1: no one is safe, right, and that's not. 527 00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:34,840 Speaker 4: Okay, truly truly. I mean I think of, like, you know, 528 00:27:34,840 --> 00:27:36,960 Speaker 4: I lost my house in the Eating fire, and I 529 00:27:37,040 --> 00:27:39,800 Speaker 4: just think of how that was just I just remember 530 00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:42,400 Speaker 4: the winds, like the wind warnings. They're like these are 531 00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:45,320 Speaker 4: fucking like once in a hundred year winds that are 532 00:27:45,359 --> 00:27:47,960 Speaker 4: going to blow through this like the two ten Yeah, 533 00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:50,480 Speaker 4: like the two ten corridor. And at the time I 534 00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:52,840 Speaker 4: was like whoa, Like I was watching the trees move 535 00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:54,600 Speaker 4: and I was like, this is kind of interesting. And 536 00:27:54,600 --> 00:27:56,439 Speaker 4: then the power went on and then hours later, like 537 00:27:56,520 --> 00:27:59,320 Speaker 4: the fires began. But when I put it all together, 538 00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:01,959 Speaker 4: I was like, oh god, these winds are acting as 539 00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:05,919 Speaker 4: a bellows for the fires, which this area just became 540 00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:09,520 Speaker 4: a furnace, and you now have the most extreme winds 541 00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:13,240 Speaker 4: just you know, like literally fanning these flames too to 542 00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:16,080 Speaker 4: an intensity like that we're going into like urban basins 543 00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:18,679 Speaker 4: like Altadena and things like that. So yeah, like it's 544 00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:21,159 Speaker 4: no fucking no one is safe. And even if you 545 00:28:21,200 --> 00:28:22,720 Speaker 4: think it's, like, well, it's only gonna happen to me 546 00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:25,040 Speaker 4: in this one specific way. No, Like, we live in 547 00:28:25,119 --> 00:28:27,360 Speaker 4: such a like we live in an environment where all 548 00:28:27,359 --> 00:28:31,280 Speaker 4: of these relationships feed off of each other and one 549 00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:33,439 Speaker 4: thing will lead to another eventually. 550 00:28:34,359 --> 00:28:36,880 Speaker 1: And I mean I'm sory. 551 00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:39,680 Speaker 4: Oh no, no, yeah, it's it's fine. It's you know, 552 00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:42,160 Speaker 4: we were just talking about having less stuff. Fine, but 553 00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:45,719 Speaker 4: I mean, yes, yeah, yeah, yeah, I mean it's it 554 00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:48,200 Speaker 4: is what it is. I mean, I'm constantly in a 555 00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:53,160 Speaker 4: process of like grieving my life, mourning the future that 556 00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:55,280 Speaker 4: I thought I had ahead of me, and things like that. 557 00:28:55,360 --> 00:28:57,280 Speaker 4: But at the same time, I'm learning so much about 558 00:28:57,280 --> 00:29:00,400 Speaker 4: how resilient I am, how resilient my neighbors are, how 559 00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:03,080 Speaker 4: resilient my family is and those things have been much 560 00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:05,400 Speaker 4: more heartening to me. And just like the support I've 561 00:29:05,400 --> 00:29:09,080 Speaker 4: gotten from friends, family, Zeitgang, the listeners like It's I've 562 00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:13,040 Speaker 4: had every reminder around me that the Earth is good, 563 00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:17,000 Speaker 4: that people are good, and that's that sort of carries 564 00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:19,960 Speaker 4: me through because even with like climate change, I do 565 00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:23,560 Speaker 4: think people people will begin to put the pieces together, 566 00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:27,560 Speaker 4: no matter how propagandized they are. There's something about seeing 567 00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:30,920 Speaker 4: Earth just fuck your shit up that it's hard. Like 568 00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:33,600 Speaker 4: I know some people can immediately just turn to conspiracy 569 00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:35,720 Speaker 4: theories to try and soothe themselves and cope with the 570 00:29:35,760 --> 00:29:38,440 Speaker 4: reality of it, but other times it ends up being 571 00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:43,760 Speaker 4: something that just moves you. Like anyway, all that to say, now, 572 00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:46,920 Speaker 4: like with all of these changing weather patterns, we are 573 00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:50,560 Speaker 4: just constantly seeing all these little pieces of like scientific 574 00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:52,760 Speaker 4: research or tools that are being used to keep people 575 00:29:52,800 --> 00:29:55,840 Speaker 4: safe just being picked apart. Like so this week, the 576 00:29:55,960 --> 00:30:00,000 Speaker 4: Navy is basically unplugging three weather satellites as we approach 577 00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:03,440 Speaker 4: p hurricane season in the Atlantic and there are literally 578 00:30:03,520 --> 00:30:06,000 Speaker 4: no other substitutes that can offer the kind of essential 579 00:30:06,080 --> 00:30:09,800 Speaker 4: data that these that these satellites do. And like in 580 00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:13,600 Speaker 4: reading the story, I'm like Oh my god, what yeah, 581 00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:17,080 Speaker 4: what are you saying? Like how and like the Pentagon's like, well, 582 00:30:17,080 --> 00:30:20,400 Speaker 4: there's a huge vulnerability, there's an IT security issue. These 583 00:30:20,440 --> 00:30:23,600 Speaker 4: things have been they're actually past their operational date. It's 584 00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:25,400 Speaker 4: they should have only been operating for five years. They've 585 00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:28,240 Speaker 4: been up there for ted whatever. So But then like 586 00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:30,400 Speaker 4: on the other part of it, like in the article lower, 587 00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:34,240 Speaker 4: you see how much how many like researchers scientists are 588 00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:37,400 Speaker 4: scrambling to try and fill the gaps right now because 589 00:30:37,400 --> 00:30:39,480 Speaker 4: they're like, well, we just lost one of our most 590 00:30:39,480 --> 00:30:43,280 Speaker 4: important tools. Now we have to immediately begin problem solving 591 00:30:43,280 --> 00:30:45,959 Speaker 4: around how to you know, alleviate the loss of all 592 00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:49,600 Speaker 4: that essential data. And it's also again like heartening to 593 00:30:49,760 --> 00:30:52,760 Speaker 4: just see people being like, we have to get it done. 594 00:30:52,800 --> 00:30:55,280 Speaker 4: But at the same time, this is all being this 595 00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:57,320 Speaker 4: is all man made in terms of literally being like, well, 596 00:30:57,320 --> 00:30:59,200 Speaker 4: we're just going to take this tool away because it's 597 00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:02,560 Speaker 4: part of projective and you know, the more we can 598 00:31:02,600 --> 00:31:06,600 Speaker 4: ignore climate change like from a measurable standpoint, then it 599 00:31:06,760 --> 00:31:09,320 Speaker 4: goes away. I'm still failing to really connect all of 600 00:31:09,320 --> 00:31:11,600 Speaker 4: those dots. I mean, I can see the sort of 601 00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:16,000 Speaker 4: wealth redistribution after a disaster that happens in disaster capitalism. 602 00:31:16,040 --> 00:31:19,760 Speaker 4: But it's like very like, wow, what do I don't 603 00:31:19,800 --> 00:31:21,000 Speaker 4: know what you think. I don't know how you think 604 00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:23,680 Speaker 4: this ends up good for everyone if we're unable to 605 00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:25,600 Speaker 4: like properly track storms and things like that. 606 00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:27,840 Speaker 1: I agree with you, that's I think also for so 607 00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:31,479 Speaker 1: many people, maybe not folks who are as like plugged 608 00:31:31,480 --> 00:31:33,480 Speaker 1: into science stuff, but for a lot of people who 609 00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:36,120 Speaker 1: like are just like living their lives, like minding their 610 00:31:36,120 --> 00:31:39,360 Speaker 1: own business like they were likely or we were likely 611 00:31:39,440 --> 00:31:43,479 Speaker 1: unaware of how many system scientific systems have been in 612 00:31:43,520 --> 00:31:46,360 Speaker 1: place that we're just not like checking for because they 613 00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:48,680 Speaker 1: just exist and they help us, you know, like when 614 00:31:48,720 --> 00:31:51,160 Speaker 1: you open your weather app, it's because there's all this 615 00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:54,560 Speaker 1: science and technology that's just been operating behind the scenes, 616 00:31:54,720 --> 00:31:57,360 Speaker 1: or when you get your vaccine from your doctor or 617 00:31:57,400 --> 00:31:59,320 Speaker 1: like whatever. It is, like there's just so much that 618 00:31:59,360 --> 00:32:02,000 Speaker 1: has just exist and been put in place, and we're 619 00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:05,600 Speaker 1: only finding out the details of it as it gets dismantled. 620 00:32:05,680 --> 00:32:07,520 Speaker 1: And then that's extra alarm because you're kind of like, 621 00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:10,960 Speaker 1: WHOA this whole time, Like there's been problems, but I 622 00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:14,560 Speaker 1: guess there's been fewer problems because we had all this 623 00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:16,200 Speaker 1: stuff in place, So what is it going to be 624 00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:16,960 Speaker 1: like now. 625 00:32:17,080 --> 00:32:20,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, I remember during the DOGE cuts, So there was 626 00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:22,200 Speaker 2: like an interview in one of the major papers with 627 00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:25,479 Speaker 2: somebody being like, well, yeah, they can cut the like 628 00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:27,840 Speaker 2: funding on that because I just go to weather dot 629 00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:33,560 Speaker 2: com to get my weather updates and meteorological reports, and 630 00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:35,840 Speaker 2: it's like, where the fuck do you think they're getting 631 00:32:36,440 --> 00:32:37,400 Speaker 2: their data from. 632 00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:41,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's sort of like that sort of metaphor you 633 00:32:41,320 --> 00:32:43,800 Speaker 4: talk about Jack, like wealthy people thinking like they were 634 00:32:43,840 --> 00:32:45,880 Speaker 4: born on third or what would you say, they were 635 00:32:45,920 --> 00:32:47,080 Speaker 4: born on first or whatever. 636 00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:49,960 Speaker 2: I'm born on third thinking they hit a triple. 637 00:32:49,760 --> 00:32:53,280 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, exactly, born like where we are ambiently just 638 00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:57,360 Speaker 4: we're reaping the benefits of scientific research that people just 639 00:32:57,400 --> 00:33:00,440 Speaker 4: think it's part of life rather than And it's like 640 00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:05,200 Speaker 4: this is centuries of science that have culminated in you 641 00:33:05,320 --> 00:33:07,840 Speaker 4: looking at your phone and being like it might rain 642 00:33:07,920 --> 00:33:11,560 Speaker 4: on Saturday. That's not just because like God's like, yeah, 643 00:33:11,640 --> 00:33:15,560 Speaker 4: you guys have earned this like clairvoyance to predict the weather. 644 00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:19,040 Speaker 4: It's all built off the backs of human research, right, Yeah. 645 00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:21,920 Speaker 1: Like the Internet doesn't just give you information because the 646 00:33:22,040 --> 00:33:27,360 Speaker 1: Internet is sentient, like it is put into the Internet 647 00:33:27,440 --> 00:33:28,880 Speaker 1: so that you can access it. 648 00:33:29,280 --> 00:33:32,280 Speaker 2: I will just say, Miles, you mentioned conspiracy theories, and 649 00:33:32,920 --> 00:33:37,000 Speaker 2: I do just have to because conspiracy theories, like the 650 00:33:37,040 --> 00:33:39,720 Speaker 2: ones that are out there and known as conspiracy theories 651 00:33:39,800 --> 00:33:44,440 Speaker 2: are like, you know, the Left is hiding messages in 652 00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:47,080 Speaker 2: our kids heavy metal music by like if you play 653 00:33:47,120 --> 00:33:49,560 Speaker 2: it backwards you can hear that. So that's like what 654 00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:53,520 Speaker 2: gets conspiracy theories written about is just like fantasies that 655 00:33:53,680 --> 00:33:58,240 Speaker 2: like the Left is like steering things behind the scenes somehow. Meanwhile, 656 00:33:58,360 --> 00:34:02,479 Speaker 2: like the Koch brothers the past like sixty years, what 657 00:34:02,560 --> 00:34:08,719 Speaker 2: they've done is more like comprehensive and like underhanded and 658 00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:14,120 Speaker 2: successful than like any wild conspiracy theory, Like they've they've 659 00:34:14,200 --> 00:34:18,520 Speaker 2: seeded these like anti scientific values that will kill us 660 00:34:18,560 --> 00:34:22,080 Speaker 2: all by like doing things like getting actors to dress 661 00:34:22,160 --> 00:34:24,439 Speaker 2: up as the founding fathers and like create the tea 662 00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:28,320 Speaker 2: party and shit. Like they've just been quietly like pulling 663 00:34:28,320 --> 00:34:33,120 Speaker 2: off this massive conspiracy. But in the United States, like 664 00:34:33,200 --> 00:34:39,560 Speaker 2: when a rich, powerful entity like does something, it's not 665 00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:43,600 Speaker 2: considered a conspiracy theory. It's just considered like too boring 666 00:34:43,719 --> 00:34:44,799 Speaker 2: to like pay attention to. 667 00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:48,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, and I think again, depending on your perspective, they'll 668 00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:50,600 Speaker 4: be like, well, that's their right as business people to 669 00:34:50,680 --> 00:34:52,719 Speaker 4: do things that help their business. I'm like, that's not 670 00:34:52,880 --> 00:34:55,480 Speaker 4: what they're I mean, yeah, they are helping their business. 671 00:34:55,480 --> 00:34:58,279 Speaker 4: But the knock on effects here that like we're absolutely 672 00:34:58,280 --> 00:35:01,480 Speaker 4: going to experience the degradation of the vi because of that. 673 00:35:01,680 --> 00:35:05,600 Speaker 4: Oh okay, sure. And like this next headline that showed 674 00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:09,080 Speaker 4: up too, that there are almost twenty states that have 675 00:35:09,640 --> 00:35:13,640 Speaker 4: Republican weather control bills moving through their state legislatures right now. 676 00:35:14,000 --> 00:35:17,600 Speaker 4: This is again, this is now Republicans being like, all right, 677 00:35:17,640 --> 00:35:22,240 Speaker 4: we need bills that will prevent the government from using 678 00:35:22,320 --> 00:35:26,480 Speaker 4: airplanes to spray chemicals and do weather control on us. 679 00:35:26,880 --> 00:35:28,600 Speaker 4: And you're like, I'm sorry, Like okay, So one of 680 00:35:28,600 --> 00:35:31,680 Speaker 4: these things right that Marjorie Taylor Green and Tim Burkett 681 00:35:32,280 --> 00:35:34,640 Speaker 4: have introduced called the Clear Skies Act. We talked about 682 00:35:34,680 --> 00:35:37,399 Speaker 4: it like maybe a month ago again, quote, which would 683 00:35:37,440 --> 00:35:41,279 Speaker 4: outlaw forms of geo engineering and hit alleged weather modifiers 684 00:35:41,320 --> 00:35:44,000 Speaker 4: with penalties of up to one hundred thousand dollars for 685 00:35:44,080 --> 00:35:48,040 Speaker 4: each violation and potential prison sentences of up to five years. 686 00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:51,840 Speaker 4: It's not a conspiracy theory. Pennsylvania State Senator Camera Bartolota 687 00:35:51,880 --> 00:35:55,640 Speaker 4: Republican who co sponsored legislation our legislation in her state, said, 688 00:35:55,960 --> 00:35:57,760 Speaker 4: all you have to do is look. 689 00:35:57,640 --> 00:35:59,800 Speaker 3: Up weather modifiers. 690 00:36:00,160 --> 00:36:02,759 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm actually in the process of looking up them. 691 00:36:02,880 --> 00:36:05,120 Speaker 2: I'm not quite seeing what they're talking about. 692 00:36:05,120 --> 00:36:09,000 Speaker 4: Well, it's like if you see contrails, they're like, that's it. Yeah, yeah, 693 00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:11,439 Speaker 4: but then what but what are you again? I don't 694 00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:14,480 Speaker 4: even know how they can prove anything is happening, because 695 00:36:14,480 --> 00:36:17,279 Speaker 4: every time these freaks talk about it, they're pointing to 696 00:36:17,320 --> 00:36:20,360 Speaker 4: like a sentence and a Pentagon report that they are like, 697 00:36:20,560 --> 00:36:24,440 Speaker 4: that's that's an area of interest is to study weather modification. 698 00:36:24,840 --> 00:36:27,560 Speaker 4: And they take that as the Pentagon has weather modifying 699 00:36:27,600 --> 00:36:30,360 Speaker 4: weapons that they use to modify the weather to attack people, 700 00:36:30,400 --> 00:36:33,799 Speaker 4: and then they're going to attack their own country with 701 00:36:34,280 --> 00:36:34,680 Speaker 4: the weather. 702 00:36:36,120 --> 00:36:38,279 Speaker 1: I just think I think I did hear about this, 703 00:36:38,400 --> 00:36:41,000 Speaker 1: like in a different context where folks are like, you know, 704 00:36:41,080 --> 00:36:44,880 Speaker 1: environmentalists who are like, that's true, the emissions of fossil 705 00:36:44,880 --> 00:36:45,640 Speaker 1: fuels do. 706 00:36:45,760 --> 00:36:46,720 Speaker 3: Modify the weather. 707 00:36:47,160 --> 00:36:50,920 Speaker 1: Those should be stopped because it does harm people. 708 00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:52,480 Speaker 4: So just outlaw that. 709 00:36:52,600 --> 00:36:54,840 Speaker 1: Let's like, let's pass these bills and make sure that 710 00:36:54,880 --> 00:36:55,880 Speaker 1: it's comprehensive. 711 00:36:56,280 --> 00:36:59,280 Speaker 2: Those contrails you see up there coming off of fossil 712 00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:03,520 Speaker 2: fuel power jets that are flying through the air. Huh wait, 713 00:37:03,600 --> 00:37:05,560 Speaker 2: look about that? What do you think about that? I'm 714 00:37:05,600 --> 00:37:08,160 Speaker 2: hearing a lot more people talk about this idea of like, 715 00:37:08,239 --> 00:37:11,520 Speaker 2: I'm just kind of banking that someone smart's going to 716 00:37:11,560 --> 00:37:15,160 Speaker 2: figure out the climate change thing. And I think one 717 00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:19,400 Speaker 2: of the things that scientists are looking into are like 718 00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:25,560 Speaker 2: weather modification, temperature modification, like spraying salt water, like ocean 719 00:37:25,600 --> 00:37:29,440 Speaker 2: water into the air to try and deflect sunlight, to 720 00:37:29,640 --> 00:37:32,279 Speaker 2: like see what that's going to look like. And I 721 00:37:32,280 --> 00:37:36,640 Speaker 2: feel like these conservative forces are acting like an immune 722 00:37:36,640 --> 00:37:40,160 Speaker 2: system already, just like preparing people to freak out over 723 00:37:40,239 --> 00:37:44,800 Speaker 2: any idea that would involve like trying to cool the environment, 724 00:37:44,800 --> 00:37:48,040 Speaker 2: which again I'm not saying that's necessarily the right path, 725 00:37:48,239 --> 00:37:51,760 Speaker 2: but it's just like there's no way even if somebody 726 00:37:51,760 --> 00:37:54,920 Speaker 2: comes up with a strategy that's like harmless and going 727 00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:58,880 Speaker 2: to cool the environment, they won't be able to do 728 00:37:58,960 --> 00:38:00,239 Speaker 2: it because of shit like this. 729 00:38:00,480 --> 00:38:03,880 Speaker 4: I feel like it's mister Freeze, it's doctor Freeze from Batman. 730 00:38:04,080 --> 00:38:06,080 Speaker 4: They're like, you know what, you know, you know where 731 00:38:06,080 --> 00:38:09,520 Speaker 4: this kind of stuff you've seen snow piercer, Yeah, and like, meanwhile, 732 00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:11,799 Speaker 4: like the EPA right now, which is a huge thing 733 00:38:11,800 --> 00:38:15,440 Speaker 4: this week, they're basically revoking the scientific basis for United 734 00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:20,040 Speaker 4: States climate regulations. So this is like the in two 735 00:38:20,080 --> 00:38:22,600 Speaker 4: thousand and nine, there is a declaration that determined quote, 736 00:38:22,640 --> 00:38:26,760 Speaker 4: carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases endanger public health and welfare. 737 00:38:26,800 --> 00:38:31,319 Speaker 4: And basically this endangerment finding is the whole basis for 738 00:38:31,440 --> 00:38:33,719 Speaker 4: our laws to be like, yeah, we can't do that, 739 00:38:34,480 --> 00:38:37,800 Speaker 4: can't do that stuff because it's bad, because it's affecting 740 00:38:37,920 --> 00:38:41,880 Speaker 4: us negatively in a measurable way. Meanwhile, the head of 741 00:38:41,880 --> 00:38:45,320 Speaker 4: the EPA, Lee's Elden, says, like this sort of scientific 742 00:38:45,360 --> 00:38:48,800 Speaker 4: basis is quote the holy grail for climate change religion, 743 00:38:49,239 --> 00:38:52,719 Speaker 4: and that rescinding this declaration will usher in, like he said, 744 00:38:53,080 --> 00:38:57,920 Speaker 4: just a new age of American prosperity aka fossil fuel fuckfest. 745 00:38:58,360 --> 00:39:00,840 Speaker 4: But when you read reports now about how the fossil 746 00:39:00,880 --> 00:39:04,040 Speaker 4: fuel industry is operating, they're not drilling more than they 747 00:39:04,040 --> 00:39:06,360 Speaker 4: were under bite, and like that whole idea of like 748 00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:09,919 Speaker 4: the drill baby, drill prosperity sort of gospel, like that's 749 00:39:09,960 --> 00:39:14,040 Speaker 4: not actually in practice doing anything or remotely close to 750 00:39:14,080 --> 00:39:17,600 Speaker 4: providing the sort of prosperity that everyone believes it will 751 00:39:17,600 --> 00:39:20,920 Speaker 4: be on the right. So it's just very There's. 752 00:39:20,760 --> 00:39:26,800 Speaker 1: A lot of like job opportunities, economic stimulation that exists 753 00:39:26,920 --> 00:39:30,560 Speaker 1: in electrifying America and moving away from fossil fuels. There's 754 00:39:30,640 --> 00:39:35,400 Speaker 1: like an entire green economy that is waiting to like 755 00:39:35,600 --> 00:39:39,640 Speaker 1: get started if we if we have leaders that allow 756 00:39:39,719 --> 00:39:42,920 Speaker 1: it is sustainable, it is long term. It would transform 757 00:39:42,960 --> 00:39:46,120 Speaker 1: the world and it would decrease debt. It would I mean, 758 00:39:46,160 --> 00:39:49,560 Speaker 1: it's just like it's the best choice. But it is 759 00:39:49,960 --> 00:39:52,880 Speaker 1: all become very political, Like having a healthy thriving planet 760 00:39:53,280 --> 00:39:57,279 Speaker 1: in at least America today has become political, and so 761 00:39:57,440 --> 00:39:59,720 Speaker 1: we're fighting with each other more than we're doing anything. 762 00:40:00,160 --> 00:40:04,160 Speaker 2: All those jobs sound like they would redistribute money away 763 00:40:04,239 --> 00:40:07,120 Speaker 2: from fossil fuel executives and the people who currently have 764 00:40:07,239 --> 00:40:09,719 Speaker 2: all the money down to people who don't have the 765 00:40:09,760 --> 00:40:13,279 Speaker 2: money right now, which we're we just have to take 766 00:40:13,360 --> 00:40:15,959 Speaker 2: en up. We need our economists to take another look 767 00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:18,160 Speaker 2: at that. One. That sounds like socialism to me. 768 00:40:18,440 --> 00:40:20,960 Speaker 1: I mean, I agree with that, but also we have 769 00:40:21,280 --> 00:40:24,880 Speaker 1: examples of you know, like the wealthiest man in the world, 770 00:40:25,520 --> 00:40:29,920 Speaker 1: like his company makes electric stuff, right, yeah, you know, 771 00:40:30,120 --> 00:40:32,200 Speaker 1: so it's like it's not you know, I would like 772 00:40:32,280 --> 00:40:35,640 Speaker 1: to see like money trickle down to the people, but 773 00:40:36,600 --> 00:40:39,680 Speaker 1: it's it's still going to be capitalism, even if it's green. 774 00:40:40,080 --> 00:40:41,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's right. 775 00:40:41,640 --> 00:40:43,520 Speaker 4: I mean, yeah, I mean I was every time I 776 00:40:43,560 --> 00:40:46,440 Speaker 4: read those pieces too, like about our energy generation. Like, 777 00:40:46,560 --> 00:40:48,960 Speaker 4: the part that makes me feel better is like we're 778 00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:53,040 Speaker 4: also in the era of like explosive renewable energy development too, 779 00:40:53,200 --> 00:40:57,280 Speaker 4: Like we're fully developing that, not necessarily in the United States, 780 00:40:57,280 --> 00:41:00,560 Speaker 4: but abroad a lot of countries are like, well we 781 00:41:01,440 --> 00:41:03,480 Speaker 4: fucked with science. What I mean. 782 00:41:03,480 --> 00:41:06,440 Speaker 2: Now, that is something Miles. You talk about the brain drain. 783 00:41:06,800 --> 00:41:09,680 Speaker 2: That's something that I've heard about in a couple of articles. 784 00:41:09,960 --> 00:41:12,839 Speaker 2: But of course the Trump administration has assured me that 785 00:41:12,840 --> 00:41:14,919 Speaker 2: that's not a thing and nothing to be worried about. 786 00:41:14,960 --> 00:41:17,319 Speaker 2: But as a scientist, doctor Grant, is that's something that 787 00:41:17,800 --> 00:41:21,760 Speaker 2: you're seeing evidence of, you know, America being openly hostile 788 00:41:21,840 --> 00:41:26,279 Speaker 2: towards science and scientists. Does that have any impact potentially 789 00:41:26,480 --> 00:41:27,440 Speaker 2: that you could foresee? 790 00:41:27,600 --> 00:41:28,359 Speaker 3: It definitely does. 791 00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:32,440 Speaker 1: And I don't want to kind of exaggerate the brain 792 00:41:32,520 --> 00:41:34,160 Speaker 1: drain in America because I think it's still at a 793 00:41:34,160 --> 00:41:37,480 Speaker 1: place where it's potential there's potentially a brain drain. Like 794 00:41:37,640 --> 00:41:39,279 Speaker 1: there's a lot of countries around the world that have 795 00:41:39,320 --> 00:41:41,359 Speaker 1: a real deal of brain drain, right, Like a lot 796 00:41:41,360 --> 00:41:44,239 Speaker 1: of developing nations where like if people are able to 797 00:41:44,280 --> 00:41:47,680 Speaker 1: achieve a certain amount of education, they leave for Western countries. 798 00:41:47,719 --> 00:41:51,520 Speaker 1: And it's way more, you know, than what we've got 799 00:41:51,560 --> 00:41:54,480 Speaker 1: going on. But I can even say from my personal experience, 800 00:41:55,160 --> 00:42:00,319 Speaker 1: Like in February, weeks after the Trump administration took office, 801 00:42:00,560 --> 00:42:05,360 Speaker 1: like I got multiple emails from universities outside of the 802 00:42:05,440 --> 00:42:09,359 Speaker 1: United States inviting me to consider a position at their 803 00:42:09,440 --> 00:42:13,040 Speaker 1: university for science. And like the letters, I mean, I 804 00:42:13,080 --> 00:42:15,080 Speaker 1: don't want to put anyone on blast, but the letters 805 00:42:15,080 --> 00:42:19,359 Speaker 1: were essentially saying like, obviously there's no way you can 806 00:42:19,440 --> 00:42:23,680 Speaker 1: do conservation science under the current regime, but we will 807 00:42:23,680 --> 00:42:27,080 Speaker 1: support you. We will be innovative. You don't have to fundraise, 808 00:42:27,280 --> 00:42:30,080 Speaker 1: you know, your family is welcome. You could have students. 809 00:42:30,080 --> 00:42:32,879 Speaker 1: I mean, like your dreams could come true. Come on over. 810 00:42:33,040 --> 00:42:36,759 Speaker 1: It was explicit that not only did they want me 811 00:42:36,920 --> 00:42:40,319 Speaker 1: and people like me, but they knew that me and 812 00:42:40,360 --> 00:42:44,880 Speaker 1: people like me needed to continue our important work for 813 00:42:44,960 --> 00:42:47,120 Speaker 1: the world, and the rest of the world is ready 814 00:42:47,120 --> 00:42:50,319 Speaker 1: for that. I mean I've met like here and there, 815 00:42:50,360 --> 00:42:52,680 Speaker 1: I've been recruited for jobs. So this was like like 816 00:42:53,239 --> 00:42:57,840 Speaker 1: super direct and kind of speaks to a potential brain drain, right, Like, 817 00:42:57,880 --> 00:43:01,239 Speaker 1: I mean, we've read about other scholars from top universities 818 00:43:01,280 --> 00:43:06,800 Speaker 1: who have taken positions and other international universities just because 819 00:43:06,880 --> 00:43:11,080 Speaker 1: they will not accept what their universe, how their university 820 00:43:11,320 --> 00:43:15,400 Speaker 1: is adapting, you know, to the Trump administration, or they're 821 00:43:15,400 --> 00:43:19,040 Speaker 1: afraid that they won't last there because of resources. 822 00:43:19,239 --> 00:43:23,200 Speaker 4: Right. Yeah. Every time I read about that, it's like 823 00:43:23,239 --> 00:43:25,640 Speaker 4: it feels like sports were like a team here is 824 00:43:25,680 --> 00:43:28,920 Speaker 4: It's like, hey, their star players are unsettled. Maybe yeah, yeah, 825 00:43:28,920 --> 00:43:30,719 Speaker 4: and then suddenly they're like, oh you knew about me. 826 00:43:30,760 --> 00:43:33,680 Speaker 4: They're like, oh yes, yes, yes, it's been very interested 827 00:43:33,719 --> 00:43:36,479 Speaker 4: in your work for a very long time. In terms 828 00:43:36,560 --> 00:43:39,439 Speaker 4: of like because I hear brain drain and I sort 829 00:43:39,440 --> 00:43:44,440 Speaker 4: of get all the smart people leave, What can you 830 00:43:44,480 --> 00:43:47,479 Speaker 4: help me someone who is dumb really kind of wrap 831 00:43:47,560 --> 00:43:50,600 Speaker 4: my head around like what those like what the domino 832 00:43:50,640 --> 00:43:52,560 Speaker 4: effects are? Like I get that, Yeah, all of this 833 00:43:52,719 --> 00:43:55,400 Speaker 4: research now is happening elsewhere, so then maybe we're not 834 00:43:55,520 --> 00:43:58,160 Speaker 4: the first to it, and maybe that has some kind 835 00:43:58,160 --> 00:44:00,920 Speaker 4: of financial thing. But also like existential. What does that 836 00:44:00,960 --> 00:44:02,600 Speaker 4: mean for like our quality of life when all of 837 00:44:02,640 --> 00:44:04,840 Speaker 4: our top minds just head for the exits. 838 00:44:05,280 --> 00:44:08,720 Speaker 1: Well, I mean, I will say, like examples from other 839 00:44:08,920 --> 00:44:11,319 Speaker 1: countries that they that are not the United States, it 840 00:44:11,440 --> 00:44:16,359 Speaker 1: means that, you know, kind of economic development within that 841 00:44:16,520 --> 00:44:22,200 Speaker 1: country really stalls, right, So like the innovation and yeah, 842 00:44:22,280 --> 00:44:25,400 Speaker 1: the innovation that is that has the potential that country 843 00:44:25,400 --> 00:44:29,040 Speaker 1: in stalls. But also even the educators, right because if 844 00:44:29,040 --> 00:44:33,800 Speaker 1: people who experience extreme education leave for a different country, 845 00:44:34,200 --> 00:44:38,800 Speaker 1: then the educators themselves are also like kind of subpar 846 00:44:39,200 --> 00:44:41,760 Speaker 1: or you know, and so then the people educating the kids. 847 00:44:41,760 --> 00:44:44,640 Speaker 1: Like it's just like this constant cycle that a lot 848 00:44:44,640 --> 00:44:46,880 Speaker 1: of countries can stay in. I can't say for the 849 00:44:47,000 --> 00:44:49,319 Speaker 1: United States because the United States has been number one 850 00:44:49,440 --> 00:44:53,160 Speaker 1: and a lot of different things for you know, a century. 851 00:44:53,200 --> 00:44:56,279 Speaker 2: And so driven by breakthroughs from people who weren't born 852 00:44:56,280 --> 00:44:57,920 Speaker 2: in the United States thank. 853 00:44:57,719 --> 00:45:01,239 Speaker 1: You hello, Yeah, And so it's it's difficult to say 854 00:45:01,239 --> 00:45:04,200 Speaker 1: what it would be. I will offer something a bit 855 00:45:04,320 --> 00:45:09,600 Speaker 1: hopeful when it comes to climate science, environmental science, or 856 00:45:09,719 --> 00:45:14,120 Speaker 1: wildlife conservation work. I think that if the work is 857 00:45:14,200 --> 00:45:18,719 Speaker 1: being done somewhere, that that moves the planet forward. Because 858 00:45:18,719 --> 00:45:21,600 Speaker 1: a lot of issues are not about America, like America's 859 00:45:21,600 --> 00:45:25,600 Speaker 1: part of North America, a continent, Like the lines are invisible, 860 00:45:25,719 --> 00:45:29,640 Speaker 1: they're made up, Like the political boundaries aren't real, and 861 00:45:29,680 --> 00:45:33,000 Speaker 1: so like, if the work is being done somewhere, it 862 00:45:33,080 --> 00:45:35,840 Speaker 1: impacts the planet in. 863 00:45:35,719 --> 00:45:37,240 Speaker 3: This solar system. 864 00:45:37,320 --> 00:45:41,279 Speaker 1: Like it's like the extent the scale of the issues 865 00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:46,360 Speaker 1: is large, but the scale of the like American political 866 00:45:46,400 --> 00:45:49,880 Speaker 1: systems influence on this is much smaller. So I often 867 00:45:49,880 --> 00:45:52,040 Speaker 1: find myself being like, you know what, Like sure I 868 00:45:52,040 --> 00:45:53,919 Speaker 1: have you know, dear friends, and I went to grad 869 00:45:53,960 --> 00:45:55,799 Speaker 1: school with who I had just spent time with, who 870 00:45:55,800 --> 00:45:59,000 Speaker 1: are Like I was working at the White House just 871 00:45:59,120 --> 00:46:01,840 Speaker 1: moments ago my eyes, and now I'm being recruited to 872 00:46:01,920 --> 00:46:06,280 Speaker 1: work in France on these exact same issues that impact 873 00:46:06,600 --> 00:46:11,920 Speaker 1: the planet, you know. So I'm encouraged that there are 874 00:46:12,280 --> 00:46:14,760 Speaker 1: jobs waiting for people somewhere. 875 00:46:14,680 --> 00:46:16,640 Speaker 4: Right, because it's not like science is done. 876 00:46:16,920 --> 00:46:19,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, not everyone has the ability to like just make 877 00:46:20,000 --> 00:46:23,279 Speaker 1: that huge change and work elsewhere, right, So like not 878 00:46:23,400 --> 00:46:28,080 Speaker 1: everyone can take those opportunities, but I'm encouraged that the 879 00:46:28,200 --> 00:46:29,360 Speaker 1: work can still go on. 880 00:46:30,480 --> 00:46:33,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, we should take a quick break. We'll 881 00:46:33,080 --> 00:46:37,120 Speaker 2: come back, we'll talk about something stupid. Instead, we'll be right. 882 00:46:36,960 --> 00:46:49,360 Speaker 5: Back and we're back. We're back. 883 00:46:49,680 --> 00:46:54,880 Speaker 2: Let's talk about Andy Byron, the CEO from the coldplate 884 00:46:55,000 --> 00:47:00,840 Speaker 2: kiss cam incident.

This is like feigned 1031 00:55:01,800 --> 00:55:03,560 Speaker 2: obliviousness by the mainstream media. 1032 00:55:03,640 --> 00:55:05,800 Speaker 1: And I will say, all the examples you gave are real, 1033 00:55:06,200 --> 00:55:10,640 Speaker 1: and they're all very male centered, right, Like it's like 1034 00:55:10,920 --> 00:55:14,000 Speaker 1: this man did this, this man experience this, this man, 1035 00:55:14,160 --> 00:55:16,960 Speaker 1: this man this man, this man, and so like, I 1036 00:55:17,120 --> 00:55:20,040 Speaker 1: believe that as a woman in today's society, like my 1037 00:55:20,120 --> 00:55:23,440 Speaker 1: attention is mainly elsewhere, but also as a woman in 1038 00:55:23,480 --> 00:55:30,640 Speaker 1: today's society, like like women generally are like more compassionate, 1039 00:55:30,920 --> 00:55:34,719 Speaker 1: like more community centered, like like I always try to 1040 00:55:34,800 --> 00:55:38,760 Speaker 1: envision like a near future where like, you know, women 1041 00:55:38,920 --> 00:55:41,200 Speaker 1: are the people in power and society. Like I'm not 1042 00:55:41,200 --> 00:55:44,399 Speaker 1: saying that things might be very different, but but if 1043 00:55:44,400 --> 00:55:46,960 Speaker 1: you think about like the way the media is like 1044 00:55:47,120 --> 00:55:50,960 Speaker 1: about like capitalizing on the embarrassment of folks, It's like 1045 00:55:51,000 --> 00:55:54,800 Speaker 1: it's kind of like a hyper masculine like let's hurt people, 1046 00:55:54,880 --> 00:55:57,440 Speaker 1: Let's make people feel bad, Let's like stick it to them. 1047 00:55:57,520 --> 00:56:01,240 Speaker 1: Let's like, oh, like CEOs are probably mablematic like instead 1048 00:56:01,280 --> 00:56:05,680 Speaker 1: of solving the problems, let's hurt them, you know. And 1049 00:56:05,719 --> 00:56:09,440 Speaker 1: so like like I'm all about like the problems, like 1050 00:56:09,560 --> 00:56:13,440 Speaker 1: I want to like deconstruct all of these systems right 1051 00:56:13,480 --> 00:56:16,879 Speaker 1: and rebuild them. But I also like hate to see 1052 00:56:16,920 --> 00:56:21,279 Speaker 1: people feeling sad or bad or hurt or embarrassed. And 1053 00:56:21,360 --> 00:56:24,520 Speaker 1: I think that there's so many ways that we could 1054 00:56:24,840 --> 00:56:26,759 Speaker 1: we as a society, could go about these things in 1055 00:56:26,800 --> 00:56:29,279 Speaker 1: another way. And I also believe that people love to 1056 00:56:29,320 --> 00:56:32,359 Speaker 1: see love and happiness in the media, right like when 1057 00:56:32,440 --> 00:56:35,920 Speaker 1: like suddenly there's some story that is like lovely, you know, 1058 00:56:36,120 --> 00:56:38,600 Speaker 1: or like that's why people go to like cute animals and. 1059 00:56:38,520 --> 00:56:40,880 Speaker 3: Stuff like that, like like it's just better. 1060 00:56:41,520 --> 00:56:44,799 Speaker 1: And so I wish that that being good to each 1061 00:56:44,840 --> 00:56:47,399 Speaker 1: other like would rise to the top a little more 1062 00:56:47,440 --> 00:56:49,160 Speaker 1: than being nasty to each. 1063 00:56:49,000 --> 00:56:53,120 Speaker 4: Other's No, I think, like to that point about talking 1064 00:56:53,120 --> 00:56:55,279 Speaker 4: about like what the issues are, it's because we have 1065 00:56:55,440 --> 00:56:59,080 Speaker 4: such most Americans aren't able to like really articulate any 1066 00:56:59,160 --> 00:57:02,120 Speaker 4: level of class conscientess. So we get stuck at. 1067 00:57:01,960 --> 00:57:05,680 Speaker 2: The ooh, the CEO because. 1068 00:57:06,120 --> 00:57:09,480 Speaker 4: We're not talking enough about how we are exploited for 1069 00:57:09,560 --> 00:57:12,720 Speaker 4: our labor by the hyper wealthy, and we are still 1070 00:57:12,719 --> 00:57:15,360 Speaker 4: divided along these like the political lines and things and 1071 00:57:15,400 --> 00:57:17,880 Speaker 4: completely missing the forest for the trees in which it's 1072 00:57:17,920 --> 00:57:21,920 Speaker 4: like it's class consciousness, that's community. We all need to 1073 00:57:21,960 --> 00:57:23,440 Speaker 4: be looking upward, you. 1074 00:57:23,400 --> 00:57:26,800 Speaker 1: Know, not to make it about me and my work, 1075 00:57:27,000 --> 00:57:30,760 Speaker 1: but exactly what you're saying shows up in wildlife conservation 1076 00:57:30,920 --> 00:57:34,200 Speaker 1: in terms of the people or the communities that are 1077 00:57:34,240 --> 00:57:37,560 Speaker 1: like against it. And let's use the United States as 1078 00:57:37,560 --> 00:57:40,200 Speaker 1: an example. I often if I'm traveling like I have 1079 00:57:40,240 --> 00:57:44,120 Speaker 1: spent fifteen years studying bears in rural North America, and 1080 00:57:44,160 --> 00:57:47,200 Speaker 1: if I'm traveling to places where like, oh, there's bears, 1081 00:57:47,320 --> 00:57:49,960 Speaker 1: or potentially this could be good bear habitat, and there 1082 00:57:49,960 --> 00:57:53,080 Speaker 1: are folks, let's say, cattle ranchers, you know, in rural 1083 00:57:53,160 --> 00:57:57,000 Speaker 1: parts of the West who live there, who are against 1084 00:57:57,240 --> 00:58:02,480 Speaker 1: like protecting habitat or or just changing things to make 1085 00:58:02,520 --> 00:58:07,000 Speaker 1: it better for wild animals. It almost always comes down 1086 00:58:07,320 --> 00:58:11,200 Speaker 1: to class issues, to the fact that they are paycheck 1087 00:58:11,280 --> 00:58:13,840 Speaker 1: to paycheck, to the fact that their kids don't want 1088 00:58:13,880 --> 00:58:16,800 Speaker 1: to take over the family business of running cattle and 1089 00:58:16,920 --> 00:58:19,880 Speaker 1: instead want to go to a city or go to 1090 00:58:19,920 --> 00:58:22,479 Speaker 1: college and like do something else. Like it's the fact 1091 00:58:22,520 --> 00:58:25,880 Speaker 1: that like America used to support farmers in a different 1092 00:58:25,920 --> 00:58:28,080 Speaker 1: way than they do now. It's the fact that their 1093 00:58:28,360 --> 00:58:30,400 Speaker 1: land is so degraded they don't know if they can 1094 00:58:30,440 --> 00:58:33,280 Speaker 1: have another harvest. Like it's so much easier to get 1095 00:58:33,320 --> 00:58:36,280 Speaker 1: angry at a grizzly bear or a wool or a 1096 00:58:36,320 --> 00:58:40,080 Speaker 1: mountain lion than it is an economy, you know, or 1097 00:58:40,120 --> 00:58:43,280 Speaker 1: a system that is failing you. And so you know, 1098 00:58:43,560 --> 00:58:45,760 Speaker 1: I find that, like, you know, I've worked all over 1099 00:58:45,800 --> 00:58:49,680 Speaker 1: the world and where there are the biggest wildlife conservation 1100 00:58:49,800 --> 00:58:53,920 Speaker 1: issues is also where there's poverty, and it doesn't matter 1101 00:58:53,960 --> 00:58:57,560 Speaker 1: if it's like rural white Americans or parts of you know, 1102 00:58:57,600 --> 00:59:01,280 Speaker 1: East Africa where I've been, but that matters, and like 1103 00:59:01,560 --> 00:59:05,760 Speaker 1: places where there's very well resourced communities, Like it's really 1104 00:59:05,760 --> 00:59:09,040 Speaker 1: easy to talk about like saving animals, right, It's very 1105 00:59:09,080 --> 00:59:10,800 Speaker 1: easy to be like, hey, like if we do this, 1106 00:59:10,880 --> 00:59:13,920 Speaker 1: it'll like help the ecosystem and save these endangered species. 1107 00:59:13,920 --> 00:59:17,080 Speaker 1: And people are like, right on, I'm in you know, 1108 00:59:17,280 --> 00:59:20,120 Speaker 1: and so anyway, I agree with you that they like 1109 00:59:20,160 --> 00:59:23,840 Speaker 1: we are not even as scientists, We are not trained 1110 00:59:23,880 --> 00:59:27,720 Speaker 1: to discuss the like big picture issues right that are 1111 00:59:27,760 --> 00:59:31,120 Speaker 1: impacting these small decisions about like how to help a 1112 00:59:31,200 --> 00:59:33,760 Speaker 1: population off beirs right, right. 1113 00:59:33,600 --> 00:59:36,760 Speaker 4: Exactly, because yeah, like the big macro argument about it 1114 00:59:36,800 --> 00:59:39,120 Speaker 4: is when like we're still I mean at least the media, 1115 00:59:39,200 --> 00:59:41,400 Speaker 4: the mainstream media that most people consume every day, is 1116 00:59:41,400 --> 00:59:44,520 Speaker 4: not equipped to actually inform people about so yeah, like 1117 00:59:44,600 --> 00:59:47,440 Speaker 4: to the point, we'll get very stuck on these like 1118 00:59:47,520 --> 00:59:52,120 Speaker 4: microscopic sort of controversies that feel like winds for like 1119 00:59:52,200 --> 00:59:54,600 Speaker 4: working people because then like, well, at least this rich 1120 00:59:54,680 --> 00:59:59,400 Speaker 4: asshole's suffering because I'm suffering, And that's like, these are 1121 00:59:59,440 --> 01:00:02,880 Speaker 4: the wins we carve out because the real ones.
