I think the big takeaway here is that we need to stop dumping fertilizer into the ocean. To do that, we need to alter the way that we farm, because our current system has long periods of time during which there are no roots to hold the dirt from washing away into the rivers and ocean. We can fix this by switching from monoculture farming to polyculture farming.
no dude, they lost the war against the algae, and now human path a way for them to win against the algae, we're helping the very bacteria that support us to breathe 02, killing them now is just simply ungrateful
You might even say it’s just that family of Cyanobacteria that “suited up” that are the real eukaryotic success story: that basically all those big organic mechas you see walking around today are just a product of trying to make and host more mitochondria and chloroplasts
Might be interesting to see if we could engineer a variation that doesn't produce toxin and effectively make an effort to consume the CO2 and other chemicals we're dumping
Imagine if this actually wiped out all life on earth and made it what it seemed like 3 billion years ago :O Life could restart and I would type this in the next 3 billion years :O
So they can convert CO2 into oxygen, help breakdown runoff fertilizers and is a potential food source??? I hope people are working to put these bacteria to good use in a controlled matter like water treatment and such.
Well, if you inoculate the plants on your property with mycorrhizae and root symbiotic bacteria, lots of nutrient will stay in place instead of wash away into rivers and streams.
Manure and fertiliser from the meat industry (which also significantly contributes to global warming) is the main cause of these ocean dead zones: www.theguardian.com/environment/2017/aug/01/meat-industry-dead-zone-gulf-of-mexico-environment-pollution So one solution is to eat less meat.
You know, this actually just gave me an idea... Now, obviously we don't want this stuff just everywhere. But what if we cultivated large quantities of cyanobacteria in properly contained artificial pools? It could help extend the amount of time we have to figure out and implement a permanent solution to anthropogenic climate change.
So you’re telling me if natural selection didn’t evolve oxygen burping then all of the animals would actually be thriving with these greenhouse gases? Thanks nature, thanks.
Nah we must return the planet to cyanobacteria, we owe them everything, they deserve to rule the world once again. Keep on going humans and save our creators!
I feel like we could make use of cyanobacteria to help combat CO2 production and maybe even as some step in food and/or fuel production if we can figure out what to do about those toxins
Humans:" you were the chosen one"!!! "You were meant to create life not destroy it"!! Cyanobacteria: "I hate you!!!!" Humans:"you were my brother cyano..." "I loved you..."

I hear this statement a lot, but what's better: - All life without us and they dying out when the sun goes Red Giant? - Or only us without other life on earth, but being capable to escape the planet without dying out. ... But humanity will be gone in a few hundred years, so you're getting what you want: Earth and her nature will go further without us. :-) Humanity and its history will be like tears in rain. :-/
With humans or not, Earth can just laugh at our face, since we're only destroying biological things and somewhat it's surface, which, well it's actually nothing since we *may* know our end.
earth doesn't care, its just a muddy rock. and life has seem it before, more than once a living organism caused its own mass extinction, but life just adapted. we are not nearly as impressive as we think we are. some may even argue that what we are doing is good for life, because we are resetting earth's condition and releasing a lot of nutrients locked underground from a era where decomposers didn't exist. and when 99% of life is extinct, there will be a post-Holocene explosion of life.

I wish the US government would do more to cut back on fertilizers leaching into rivers. Where i live farms do have fertilizers that wash into the rivers, lakes and ocean, but public parks and other government owned land is probably responsible for the majority of the run off. There's a river near my home surrounded by housing developments and a couple small farms and you can see algae blooms occasionally but theres another river that passes through 3 public parks and that river is brown and green most of the year and dead fish wash up shore on a semi regular basis at the lake it feeds.

And just how do you suggest we stop?
or continue to fulfill a cycle?
Go to MARS
Wait, didn’t the algae swallow the Cyanobacteria WHOLE!? (Endosymbiosis Theory)
Yep. Also, plants evolved from algae that clumped together and eventually gained multicellularity
You might even say it’s just that family of Cyanobacteria that “suited up” that are the real eukaryotic success story: that basically all those big organic mechas you see walking around today are just a product of trying to make and host more mitochondria and chloroplasts
I was gonna say
Isn’t this just basically algal blooms, but with Cyanobacteria
Might be interesting to see if we could engineer a variation that doesn't produce toxin and effectively make an effort to consume the CO2 and other chemicals we're dumping
Yes but the still die in mass. Still not good for oxygen-loving aquatic life
Algae do that already. In fact, Algae produce more Oxygen and consume more CO2 than all trees on Earth combined. Around twice as much, in fact.
biggest example of "I brought you into this world and I can take you out of it" ever
THANK YOU so much for making this video! This is a super helpful resource for my students who are currently studying cyanobacteria!

@rem brandt It will restart, trust me. They literally gave you oxygen!
The consequences of polution really do get more and more serious and i really hope we can stop it soon enough...
So they can convert CO2 into oxygen, help breakdown runoff fertilizers and is a potential food source???

The thumbnails and info is solely why i love this channel
also
Leaving key search words in the video description is such a cool thing for you to do.
What made me confused is that the bacteria is already a living itself and so life was possible even before them
but different one because all those life didn't breath oxygen.
Could you do a short video on some of the solutions or maybe ideas of solutions we're toying around with to help combat this?
Manure and fertiliser from the meat industry (which also significantly contributes to global warming) is the main cause of these ocean dead zones: www.theguardian.com/environment/2017/aug/01/meat-industry-dead-zone-gulf-of-mexico-environment-pollution
So one solution is to eat less meat.

Exactly what's happening in Petrel Lake, Pichilemu, Chile. The water turned bright green and slimy. And the people polluting it look away.
By the way, green algae can do photosynthesis 'cause it have "shallow" cyanobacteria decedents, in a event know as "endosymbiosis"
Some cells have "eaten" mitochondria, algae cells've eaten cyanobacteria
