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.
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).
kids world want
I say to the grown-ups, 'If you want to deny evolution and live in your world that's completely inconsistent with everything we've observed in the universe that's fine. But don't make your kids do it.'
kids needs world
I say to the grownups, if you want to deny evolution and live in your world, that's completely inconsistent with the world we observe, that's fine. But don't make your kids do it. Because we need them. We need scientifically literate voters and taxpayers for the future. We need engineers that can build stuff and solve problems.
world facts natural
The natural world is a package deal; you don't get to select which facts you like and which you don't.
opportunity laughing world
The more you find out about the world, the more opportunities there are to laugh at it.
people world sometimes
To leave the world better than you found it, sometimes you have to pick up other people's trash.
believe evolution gravity
Evolution is not something you can believe in or not believe in like do you believe in gravity.
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.
law goal conflict
Our goal in science is to discover universal laws of nature. If one's faith requires one to abandon or ignore natural laws, well, that person is going to have trouble reconciling religion and science. Otherwise, there is no any conflict.
crazy years earth
Religion is a completely different thing from the claim that the Earth is six thousand years old. That's just crazy.
apples taste next
The thing about a theory in science is it allows you make predictions. Evolutionary theory allows us to predict what apples will taste good next harvest.
people shapes might
The strange thing about grinding that might surprise many people is that you can grind things and shape them using materials that are generally somewhat softer than the thing you're grinding and shaping.
