Seems timely, since we are in midst of multiple #ClimateCrisis events, to post about 2 Canadian made film projects that explore what the world would be like, without humans.
First up is, Aftermath: Population Zero aka Aftermath: The World After Humans.
Imagine if one minute from now, every single person on Earth disappeared. All of us. Human history just stopped. What would happen to the world without us? Aftermath: Population Zero features what scientists and others speculate the earth, animal life, and plant life might be like if humanity no longer existed, as well as the effect that humanity's disappearance would have on the artefacts of civilization. this documentary is inspired by Alan Weisman's The World Without Us.

Menjaga Bumi untuk Generasi Mendatang: Tanggung Jawab Bersama dalam Konservasi Lingkungan
Di era modern yang ditandai dengan perkembangan teknologi dan pertumbuhan ekonomi yang pesat, isu lingkungan menjadi salah satu tantangan terbesar yang dihadapi umat manusia. Perubahan iklim, berkurangnya kawasan hutan, pencemaran udara dan air, serta menurunnya keanekaragaman hayati merupakan dampak nyata dari aktivitas manusia yang kurang memperhatikan keseimbangan alam. Di tengah kondisi tersebut, kesadaran akan pentingnya konservasi lingkungan menjadi semakin relevan. Foto ini […] -
Coriolis Effect ✍️
It explains why objects moving across a rotating world seem to curve from their straight path, even when no visible force pushes them sideways. Imagine throwing a ball straight across a spinning merry-go-round. To someone standing still outside, the ball travels in a straight line. But to someone riding the spinning platform, the ball appears to bend away from its path.
The same thing happens on Earth because our planet is constantly rotating beneath everything that moves. Air currents, ocean flows, and even long-range projectiles travel over a surface that is turning while they move. This creates the illusion of a sideways force, known as the Coriolis effect.
In the Northern Hemisphere, moving objects appear to bend to the right, while in the Southern Hemisphere they bend to the left. The effect grows stronger over larger distances and faster motions, but becomes almost unnoticeable in small, everyday movements.
Scientists use this effect to understand the spinning of hurricanes, the paths of trade winds, and the circulation of oceans. It reveals that motion is not always as simple as it seems when the ground beneath us is constantly in motion itself.

Companies join a #DeepSeaMining rush after Trump executive order, as regulators fast-track permits
Trump’s order suggests the U.S. will decide for itself when to mine the global seabed, reversing the decision of previous administrations to honor the seabed authority’s rules.
By HELEN WIEFFERING
Updated 3:11 PM UTC, May 22, 2026WASHINGTON (AP) — "In the year since President Donald Trump signed an executive order promising to create a deep-sea mining industry from scratch, businesses have raised millions of dollars from investors, stock prices have soared and federal regulators have raced to fast-track a permitting process.
"At least nine companies are in talks with the government for access to seabed minerals, according to an Associated Press review. Sections of the seafloor from #AmericanSamoa to #Alaska could be auctioned for offshore mining this summer and through the fall.All the action suggests the U.S. may soon give the green light for companies to commercially mine the seabed — something that’s never been done in international waters.
"But a close look at some of the companies involved reveals uncertain track records and histories spattered with legal disputes, while major questions about how the minerals would be processed and refined remain unanswered. Watchers of the nascent industry are skeptical the promised riches will ever materialize."

🌲 IA Positiva: El Guardián que no parpadea
¿Y si los árboles pudieran avisarnos antes del fuego? No es una pregunta teórica, es una infraestructura que ¡Ya está operativa!Mientras dormimos, hay una inteligencia que no parpadea. Hoy mismo, en diversas zonas de alto riesgo de California y Europa, redes neuronales entrenadas en visión computacional monitorizan millones de hectáreas a través de cámaras térmicas y satélites.
Lo disruptivo no es solo que "vean" el humo.
Lo que tengo bajo control operacional son los datos de respuesta: **0,02 segundos**. Ese es el tiempo que tarda el sistema en distinguir entre una simple nube de polvo, el vapor de la mañana o una columna de fuego incipiente. Es tecnología salvando el aire que respiramos y el hogar de miles de especies antes de que la catástrofe sea imparable.
Esto es la IA Positiva: no es un algoritmo frío diseñado para manipular tu atención o venderte publicidad. Es un escudo invisible que protege nuestros pulmones y optimiza la labor de los bomberos forestales, dándoles la ventaja táctica del primer segundo.

Sir David Attenborough turned 100 on May 8, 2026, and the global tributes feel earned. Few people have done more to shape public wonder about the natural world and later, public alarm about what we are doing to it.
