I noticed an example of this just last night. I live in a city on a river and we have a lot of geese in the area. I was at a very large discount store in an area with some retention ponds that attract the geese. It was a couple hours after sunset on a low-humidity night so the temperature was cooling rather fast. It was near closing time, so there was a lot of empty space in the parking lot, and I saw a large group of geese, about 30, walk into an empty area of the parking lot, and lay down. It seemed an odd place to take a rest, but I think they were enjoying the warmth of the asphalt, which had been absorbing sunshine all day.

I am a beekeeper in New Zealand and i found the white clover study interesting scientists here have developed new strains of white clover but unfortunately my bees struggle to get nectar from them because the flowers are too long for the bee's tongue to reach the bottom of the flower.Hopefully evolution allows them to catch up or i can breed bee's with a longer tongue.

I had a recurring tought for the last few years while walking through few parks of Dublin, Ireland that all these swans and pigeons and other bird species must have a drastic raise of stomach cancer (or other cancers) from eating the highly processed bread-like product (i.e. toast 'bread') that many tourists throw at them. Good to see that there is actually a proper global research effort going on looking at impacts of our 'civilisation' on other living beings.

Interesting documentary, but guys.... There is a voice-over of a scientist stating that there is evidence, while the material on screen shows there is no evidence? The scatterplot shown at @35:16 with the corresponding r^2 of 0,19 (which basically tells you there is no relationship). Also, what exactly are you showing? standard deviation distance (x axis) vs the average GMIS? For a scientist, this is cringing...

I purposely let milkweed grow in my front garden. And now they're all over my front yard! But that's okay if I can help the monarch butterfly species. And in the fall, the pods open up and make this soft silky material that birds use the following spring. Only then do I remove them. Some other creature lays eggs on the milkweed, it's kinda gross, they're EVERYWHERE!! They lay their eggs on top of the leaves.

I remember trees covered in orange that looked like they were breathing as the monarchs moved their wings. But there's little to no milkweed growing on the edges of fields and in the windbreaks. Glyphosate and BT corn have broken their only breeding ground. So we see less as biodiverse habitat disappears.

I don't know how I feel about this doc, of all the fine ones from DW. First, I live in Kathmandu, a population of millions that feel like kazillions. But the city sits in a valley (talk about a heat/pollution bubble) surrounded by pure paradise. I have no doubt the evolution of numerous species is going on right now inside the city, but the city is still connected to the countryside, and the wildlife reflects that. We even have plenty of monarchs, bees and frogs left still. So second, my point is not to give up on making cities more habitatal for ALL species, instead of letting them mutate to become impervious to our shit, like PCB. And finally, this doc FAILED to correlate these urban mutations to our own species and missed a chance to point out that, like the pigeon-devouring catfish, we too are evolving into a snappy species that has to find alternative food sources!

As we can see, you do not understand how to use water ecologically wisely, you do not understand we are all Genetically Modified Organisms in one way or another, your Allah, or God has not helped any of us with our energy problems, and has only given humans the fantasy that there will be some kind of magical protector, that shields them from the responsibilities of cleaning up after their own environmental messes. Yet, do not fear theists, nature has a nice safe place in the grand hall of extinct species that have failed to adapt to the environment. Maybe if humanity could survive the next 4k years, they could find such silly theists in this hall, along with other such bad ideas such as the coal, whale oil, and petrol cars too. :) However just in case you theists would like to finally show your gods aren't just a fantasy: Please do whatever prayer you wish to get your god to type "Hi" on my keyboard (without the quotes) to show the world your god is not a fantasy.

@@that1guy899 I'll help @Lars Hansen "51 minutes ago I would like to point out that things hadn't got better, so "insert preferred god here" has been a lazy gecko for quite some time." While he's satisfied calling gods "lazy geckos" I'd simply call them a cultural fantasy. Since neither can seem to do anything in reality very well I would say they are just about the same, except there is far more evidence for lazy geckos than there is for a fantasy doing anything outside of the imaginations of the believers, and the pages of the fairytales the fantasies are written on. Fair enough? 😆

While I'm glad the fish can live in intensely polluted water... I wouldn't eat one. I think it would be better to find ways to clean the pollution up, but then again that will simply never happen.

Have we crossed the point of no return in terms of damaging the planet? There is no such point. We need to trust that our thought, which is our greatest quality, can change nature. We only need to understand the direction to which we should aim our thoughts. What should we think about? What condition or state should we aspire to and ask for? In order to save our planet, we should think about positive human connections. That is, how can we, in our connections, keep nature safe? How can we all together protect our world? If we truly wish to better our planet, then we should see people holding a concern for how to positively connect everywhere that we look. It has nothing to do with recycling or other activities that we commonly associate with as being sustainable. If we come closer to and consider each other, that we will reach an entirely organic, perfectly connected and round state, then the negative forces will disappear from the world. We need to understand that if we start thinking better about each other, then the planet will recover from all harm, because our thoughts are the strongest force in nature. Likewise, our negative thoughts about each other are entirely to blame for damaging the planet. That is why the more we recycle and invest in energies and activities that we commonly think of as being sustainable, the worse our planet becomes. Nothing will work to benefit us until we reach a state where our attitude changes toward each other for the better to protect and improve our planet.

Re: The Catfish. Just another example of an invasive species being introduced into a closed environment, that was not thoroughly examined for contridictory behavior. Man, never learns, even after so many examples preceeding this one, that have gone wrong and caused problematic behavior. Where was the complete research done for this species and what did they use as an environment to make sure this all too common anti-nature test lab was viable...Australia?

All the species have several strains. Some get to make up a greater proportion of the population depending on environmental factors. But the species has not evolved into a new species. From this film I draw the conclusion that processed food and obese scientists are better at surviving grant application pressures. Their behaviour changes to produce nervous laughter during rehearsed co-worker presentations. More importantly, is there an urban Nazi gene and can it survive recessions and urban social decay?

You say “but the species has not evolved into a new species”. What’s your point? They’re looking at the fine scale mechanisms of how they can do that, about how subdivisions of populations begins and persist, then how the different populations are starting to show divergence from one another, all it needs for speciation is to add more time and hence greater divergence into the equation.
