Ep 2: Beneath the Canopy | SEARCH ON

When saving the Amazon comes down to one tribe and an old cell phone. Google’s docuseries ‘Search On’ tells the stories of people on a quest for better answers and the magic that happens at the intersection of tech and humanity. Watch the series: yt.be/SearchOn

Can old cell phones and machine learning help stop deforestation? The Tembé tribe from the central Amazon hopes so. In collaboration with Rainforest Connection, an environmental nonprofit, the Tembé are using old cell phones hidden in trees and TensorFlow, Google’s open-source machine learning tool, to listen for sounds of illegal logging.
Director: Gandja Monteiro

"they are looking for collaborators not for help" well said. having a foreigner attempt to fix your issues is an attempt at charity, at most. it takes the people who actually live there and who understand the situation in their bones to actually find and apply effective long-term solutions. Vamo lá Brasil!

[@RomboutVersluijs]

But i guess outsiders can give them much better ideas since they hardly or not know anything about tech. Thats why the idea of Topher White is kind of genius i think

[@iteach6305]

I teach at one of the participating schools. Today Topher, the Google crew, and others came to our school to show us this film, participate in a live dialogue with members of the Tembe tribe, and then they built about 8 or so of the Guardians. Although the live feed was sketchy at times, seeing my students participate in and listen in to the dialogue was very cool and reminds us how small, and how connected, we all really are.

This is why google is and was always my favourite IT company. For them its not just about selling fancy hipster devices (apple), google actually cares for our environment and society.

[@Aaron-dt3xz]

I like Google too, but you'd be lying if you said that Apple has no environment initiative. Their iMessage data centers are 100% renewable energy, and they break down old iPhones for parts to be used again.

[@lucasboisneau4256]

Yeah but they've also been doing programmed obsolescence so that people buy more phones, also they are very complicated to repair compared to most android devices

[@Aaron-dt3xz]

Lucas Boisneau I'll agree with you on the harder to repair part, no arguing that. (However, I would like to point out that the Pixel 2 and iPhone 8 have the same iFixit repairability score - 6/10) The planned obscelecense thing, however, I will disagree with. They were slowing down iPhones with lower battery health. If they battery was replaced, the phone would speed back up. This was to preserve battery life. Now, they should have been more open with their customers about it, no doubt about it. But now that they're more open about it, and adding battery health tools into iOS and offering battery replacements for $30, they're good in my book. It should have been like that in the first place, but at least they changed. Edit: I would also like to point out one more thing. I have an OG Pixel right now, but before that, I had an iPhone 5. The iPhone 5 still works (relatively) flawlessly, with few slowdowns. It's still really usable. I doubt you could say that about many 5-year-old Android phones.

[@lucasboisneau4256]

Aaron ok you've got a point, I didn't know they offered battery replacement for 30$, you seem to know what you're talking about 😅

Also people should stop eating animal products because you need crops to breed all those animals so they deforest for crops for livestock to eat

[@johnzackarias11]

This is a great initiative. To all the commentators here, I want to say that one great thing you can do to help save the rainforest is to cut down on your meat consumption. Growing crops to feed livestock is a HUGE contributor to rainforest destruction, so please, eat less meat.

So this is a promoted video in ads. My question is, why, doesn’t this video series pop up first when looking in KZbin search? So Precolombian Americans, Indigenous Peoples of this hemisphere have to pay to promote their videos.... and yet it did not populate until I typed nearly the entire name in. And now in this comment box I cannot even see the name to reference it properly. Sigh THIS passive racism.... erasure by obfuscation and metrics.... yet they take somebody’s money to put it up as an ad. Thankfully I was out of the room when it started or I would have skipped it .... smh It just never stops...sigh. Even when allies TRY to highlight it.... racism of one employee or a group.... has nearly fully hidden this amazing piece. #endthegenocide BOTH incl #ACoPA a side note on the comments.... it gets turned back to GOOGLE as a comment focus instead of speaking of the subject matter.... genocide still ongoing from Canada/USA south to the tip of Chili/Argentina.... but it ever is twisted back to ESO issues. THIS is the gatekeeping and gaslighting behavior that gatekeeping this genocide. Shame on you.

Great re-purposing. Of course, this story overlooks the fact that there are many more trees on Earth today than there were in 1800. Nevertheless, I agree with the desperate need to halt ALL forms of clear-cutting, or cutting even ONE tree without replanting a new one of the same species.

1 Samuel Chapter 3 1 And the child Samuel ministered unto the LORD before Eli. And the word of the LORD was precious in those days; there was no open vision. 2 And it came to pass at that time, when Eli was laid down in his place, and his eyes began to wax dim, that he could not see; 3 And ere the lamp of God went out in the temple of the LORD, where the ark of God was, and Samuel was laid down to sleep; 4 That the LORD called Samuel: and he answered, Here am I. 5 And he ran unto Eli, and said, Here am I; for thou calledst me. And he said, I called not; lie down again. And he went and lay down. 6 And the LORD called yet again, Samuel. And Samuel arose and went to Eli, and said, Here am I; for thou didst call me. And he answered, I called not, my son; lie down again. 7 Now Samuel did not yet know the LORD, neither was the word of the LORD yet revealed unto him. 8 And the LORD called Samuel again the third time. And he arose and went to Eli, and said, Here am I; for thou didst call me. And Eli perceived that the LORD had called the child. 9 Therefore Eli said unto Samuel, Go, lie down: and it shall be, if he call thee, that thou shalt say, Speak, LORD; for thy servant heareth. So Samuel went and lay down in his place. 10 And the LORD came, and stood, and called as at other times, Samuel, Samuel. Then Samuel answered, Speak; for thy servant heareth. 11 And the LORD said to Samuel, Behold, I will do a thing in Israel, at which both the ears of every one that heareth it shall tingle. 12 In that day I will perform against Eli all things which I have spoken concerning his house: when I begin, I will also make an end. 13 For I have told him that I will judge his house for ever for the iniquity which he knoweth; because his sons made themselves vile, and he restrained them not. 14 And therefore I have sworn unto the house of Eli, that the iniquity of Eli's house shall not be purged with sacrifice nor offering for ever. 15 And Samuel lay until the morning, and opened the doors of the house of the LORD. And Samuel feared to shew Eli the vision. 16 Then Eli called Samuel, and said, Samuel, my son. And he answered, Here am I. 17 And he said, What is the thing that the LORD hath said unto thee? I pray thee hide it not from me: God do so to thee, and more also, if thou hide any thing from me of all the things that he said unto thee. 18 And Samuel told him every whit, and hid nothing from him. And he said, It is the LORD: let him do what seemeth him good. 19 And Samuel grew, and the LORD was with him, and did let none of his words fall to the ground. 20 And all Israel from Dan even to Beersheba knew that Samuel was established to be a prophet of the LORD. 21 And the LORD appeared again in Shiloh: for the LORD revealed himself to Samuel in Shiloh by the word of the LORD.
