Bamba Zillah Sorry, people in the tropics cannot understand that.. They were born and raised in the tropics, full of abundance, a natural comfort zone that makes us not to think. This video is the perfect irony of why the black race is not doing well.. We all sort of live in the tropics. Very comfy, needing no worries for survival.. When those in the temperate region was thinking of how to survive and needing to develop all necessary skills to survive, we had everything called food.. It was too much, until modern civilisation, until we realised, that life was beyond just the abundance of food, until people who needed the resources came and plundered them and in some cases we willfully supported them. My point still remains, we have not made much progress and this seems not to be inherent in us, the drive to make things better.. We live by the season and not out of the season. Preservation and perpetuation has not been our skills. Every season, comes with its own goodies, we just flourished in them and became a lazy breed. Who will not be this, not needing to think out the box for his survival..

Hi, there, thanks for the excellent videos. I think it is important to state in this case, that the pattern of higher species diversity in the tropics in comparison to higher latitudes is a well defined pattern in terrestrial ecosystems, but not in the marine ones. As it has been repeatedly shown in several publications in the last 3 or 4 decades.

Be more conscious of what we are losing is one of the things we need and I loved this chapter 💚 also because it was made it in Peru 🇵🇪!! Mi país hermoso

It’s cool because on Mount Rendezvous there was a small little butterflies just flying around 13,000 feet up.

Thanks for showing the importance of the tropics. I hope people open their eyes.

This guy should be preserved. He explains like a god. All his videos are good.

My theory is that climates change more dramatically at the poles, driving species at both ends towards the equator, which is more constant and moderate. When the poles warm up they migrate again towards the poles until they freeze or dry up again.

Good question! Biodiversity is highest in areas with more nutrients, which occurs in "upwelling" zones.

This is my favorite video of yours, specifically the conclusion ❤

I live in the tropics, and here the time when the sun sets is almost the same throughout the year. Specifically where I'm from the sun sets roughly at 6:00 pm in the summer, and at 5:00 pm in the winter. So when I've traveled to the States it feels extremely weird with the sun still being out after 8:00 pm in the summer, and by it already being night before 5:00 pm during the winter.

You know one question I always ask myself about biology, but I have never heard being discussed? Why is there only one source of life, like, why does all life on earth come from the same source? Today we know, that all life on earth has the same origin, but we don't know how exactly this first life formed. But isn't it pretty amazing that on a planet that theoretically has all the preconditions for life to form, life only formed once? This tells us that there is something special about the process forming life and that there has to be something special involved in the process. Like some biologists think that it has something to do with volcanos. I don't know, I always ask myself, why life only formed once and isn't constantly forming and I think scientists should use this knowledge in discussing how life formed in the first place.
