everyday world way
Talk about science with everyone you meet. Especially talk about climate change. It needs to become a part of our everyday conversation (the way it is everywhere else in the world).
light way sun
By the way, most of the light that comes from the sun is green.
way doe answers
Science provides a much more satisfactory way to seek answers than does any religion.
animal meaning-of-life way
The meaning of life is pretty clear: Living things strive to pass their genes into the future. The claim that we would not have morals or ethics without religion is extraordinary. Animals in nature seem to behave in moral ways without organized religion.
stars stuff way
You and I are made of stardust. We are the stuff of exploded stars. We are therefore, at least 1 way that the Universe knows itself. That, to me, is astonishing.
forests tribes might
If you just take a single human and put him or her in the forest he or she might not do very well without some sort of education which he got or she got from some tribe.
people quality world
The world's going to change climatically. We just want to control the change. We want to have a high quality of life for billions of people as we pass through this era.
climate world want
I hope climate science becomes the big thing. And then what I want is electrical engineers to solve the world's energy problems, energy distribution problems. I want mechanical engineers to make better transportation systems. I want chemical engineers to develop better solar panels, and so on.
reading years ideas
I tell personal stories associated with aspects of the theory, and I hope they are interesting and compelling. I don't feel you're going to change a grownup's mind in one reading. People have to be exposed to scientific ideas over and over again for years. It's also not a textbook.
animal pigs years
Burning carbon-based substances like oil, gas, and especially coal, produces billions of tons of extra carbon dioxide each year. Methane gas from cows and pigs and other animals on our large farms ends up in the atmosphere as well, trapping more of the sun's energy as heat.
real dollars process
Tax dollars intended for science education must not be used to teach creationism as any sort of real explanation of nature, because any observation or process of inference about our origin and the nature of the universe disproves creationism in every respect.
numbers phones brain
Intuitively you want some place [such as your phone] to store phone numbers, so you have that part of your brain to do other tasks.
passion space giving
But investment in space stimulates society, it stimulates it economically, it stimulates it intellectually, and it gives us all passion.
training boeing film
I always liked show biz and got to make a few training films at Boeing.
