Are the factors affecting air temperature what we previously thought? Based on physical evidence, there may be different culprits at hand. Listen in to learn: Major projections that may be filled with error The most significant factors affecting air temperature What major models are based on Patrick Frank, Scientific Affiliate at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, shares his experience researching climate change, the real reasons behind it, and the possible consequences. In recent years, the story of climate change has been centered on greenhouse gasses and a few other key factors. However, these factors may be based on errored evidence. Even with extensive modeled evidence and published studies, the evidence may be more akin to statistics than science. Due to this, the real causes and effects of climate change and rising air temperature may vary from what we have been told.

Has climate change permanently shifted biodiversity, or can we make a course correction? While we may have done irreparable damage in some areas, we may still be able to fight the effects of climate change. buy silvitra online buy silvitra over the counter online pharmacy Listen up to learn: How some species have adapted to their new environmental struggles The consequences of a species' changed behavior How one animal's behavior changes the remainder of the ecosystem Luisa Diele-Viegas, a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Federal University of Alagoas, shares her work researching how climate change has affected biodiversity. Much of the focus of the effects of climate change has focused on its impact on humans. However, if we take a closer look, the effects on biodiversity may be more severe than we initially thought. Since many animals have adopted behaviors to shield themselves from higher temperatures, they may not be able to carry out the resource gathering and reproduction necessary to sustain their species. If we cannot correct some of the damage already done, entire ecosystems may be changed for the worse. To learn more, search for Diele-Viegas LM on social media.

Loved this episode and love this podcast!
What a great podcast
Enjoy the podcast. I always learn something new!
This podcast is so informative
I never miss an episode so I’m always in the know. Thanks!
Just wrapped up the Doomberg episode. When can we expect to hear from him again? LOL Another fantastic pod, as usual.
I have heard Doomberg on other podcasts as a guest, but what sets this show apart is Richard's insightful questioning. He does not just passively listen he asks the very questions that echo in listeners minds as they tune in.
Here we go! Doomberg is back on Finding Genius. I can't even express how thrilled I am.
As a homesteader myself, I regularly tune in to 7-8 podcasts, but this one stands out as my favorite. Richard welcomes everyone, from newcomers to seasoned homesteaders, ensuring a comprehensive exploration of various perspectives.
Avi Kumar explained the science of marketing in a great way. 10/10 for this Podcast.
I started following your show after listening to Dr. Bill McGraw's episode
Brilliant show
Richard your show is great
This may sound weird but this is the podcast I have been looking for for decades. Can you imagine that? Looking for a detailed in-depth scientific explanation of cellular mystery for 60 years and finally finding it now. Imagine how wonderful this feels to me? Thank you thank you thank you keep up the good work.
Nice to find your show. This is my favorite genre.
I just finished the Wolfgang Smith Podcast. I missed his evidence for his premise of an objective world, incidently immagined to look the same way as humans experience it . W/o that evidence all the rest are hust claims motivated by an apriori theist worldview.
Why are interviews so lengthy? In my opinion, interviews should be a maximum of 30 minutes.
Safe drinking water is a fundamental human right for everyone. Let's appreciate all those who are working tirelessly to ensure this basic necessity reaches people.
Interesting information. I'm a gardener. Thank you!
Can we shift the focus away from religion? Your podcast used to be captivating, but now it's simply exasperating.
