Hey there, and thanks for checking out today's video! If you are a student who was assigned this video for homework, welcome to my channel! I hope that you'll check out some of my other wildlife content (after your homework is done of course). If you love wildlife and exploring the great outdoors, I think you'll really enjoy my content, and I'd love to have you as a subscribed member of this community. ALSO, I just finished up Ecosystems Episode 5: The Wetland Ecosystem, which you can check out right now if you are interested: kzread.info/dash/bejne/fJeWz8WYcZrcqZM.html Keep adventuring everywhere, -Ben Zino of The Wild Report

Growing up on a farm, one of my earliest memories of farm work involved clearing part of a field that had been a ditch with trees growing along it. The ditch was diverted in a different direction to improve drainage of the field. Clearing the trees meant that the field could be farmed with longer and straighter rows that would not be losing nutrients to the trees. In fact, the field that was cut in two by the ditch could now be cropped as one larger field leading to greater efficiency. My job as a young boy was to attach the log chain to the logs as my father or brother drove the tractor to pull the logs to the burn pile. This type of activity was common then, and it is common today, with larger and better machinery. Fields are made larger, and the acre size of farm holdings continue to become larger. Grasslands and timberland that once had uncountable numbers and types, of plants and animals, have been converted to crop land. Every acre is an enterprise zone to be managed for maximum profit. The trend toward precision technology has only emphasized this more. Companies' and individuals' entire financial existence is based on maximizing a singular crop grown on each acre, each year. The same can be demonstrated on ranch lands. Cows and cattle per acre translates into amount of habitat loss for the native fauna that needs some solitude to survive. Forcing animals to graze on an area forces a change in plant and wildlife ability to survive in that area. This drive for greater profit stands in stark contrast to what many see as the destruction of the planetary ecosystem. When asked where the plants, and animals will live that once inhabited the margins of the farms, the response is "somewhere else." Unfortunately, there isn't another planet where we can send them to, to live. Even many people who live in the suburbs of cities are oblivious to the destruction caused just by mowing their yards. They want a nice-looking yard, and if asked where the wildlife should live that once inhabited the area, the response is "out in the country" or "out in the wild areas" or again, "somewhere else." Yard grass now covers the most acres, of any "crop" grown. The questions now are, do we want future generations to be able to experience what a wild place really is, to have the risk of being harmed, or even killed, by wild animals and plants in nature? Do we have the right to make that decision for them? Now is the time to decide. "Somewhere else" won't exist for much longer unless we recreate that space on our farms, ranches, and yards. Will anyone really be happier never seeing a skunk, badger, fox, butterfly, mosquito, marmot, box turtle, crawdad, water bug, rattlesnake, wildcat, lighting bug, bat, salamander, or eagle outside of a zoo? I can't name all the animals that no longer exist in abundance, or exist at all, in the name of profits. Can home owners and land owners find 10% to give back to the future? Will anyone be willing to do what is necessary, or do we all expect "someone else," to do it, "somewhere else?" Does it take an act of Congress or of God himself to save the remnant plants and animals and renew the face of the earth? Lastly, a quote from the Bible: "Woe to you who join house to house, who connect field to field, 'till no room remains, and you are left to dwell alone in the midst of the land." Isaiah 5:8.

As a Biology teacher, I find this video very interesting for my young students, and I will recommend it to them.

Fun fact: Trees can send nutrients to other trees that have a hard time getting them during certain seasons. I recently came across a dead tree that was healing. Even though it won't produce energy, the other trees will still give it some.

From a 5th grade teacher in Ohio you did an awesome job! Every year I search and search for videos besides Bill Nye. There are a few I have found that work and there are many that just don't make the cut. Yours has been added to the top of the list. Not only is your content on track for our standard, but your delivery is perfect for elementary and middle school. You mentioned more on ecosystems but other topics to include might be: adaptations, symbiosis, more on diversity, competition, food chains and food webs. These are basic 5th grade standards.Please make more. I look forward to using them next year. GOOD LUCK!!!

Well boys

I think you had it right early on and then made adjustments that confused the ecosystem concept with what should be technically called communities and organisms. It is important to understand that ecosystems are conceptual tools. Ways in which we can look at a perceptible spatial - temporal objects consistencies of study : like a tree, a forest, Yellowstone by applying the ecosystem concept to look at some of the systems integrative levels and organizing principles.

if your teachers asks to write notes here: ecosystems are communities of plants we usually define ecosystems based on the types of plants and animals which can be found there there are two main types of ecosystems; restroom and aquatic A good ecosystem needs to let animals and plants live. unbalanced it is harder for animals to find food and shelter
