In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations) - วิทยาศาสตร์และเทคโนโลยี
This would be wonderful, to see monk seals back in the Caribbean. What a thrill! Also, I think that dodos farms could thrive in the exotic meat market, after all, they went extinct because people kept eating them. That sort of thing brings an economic incentive to actually make it work.
Though there will certainly be problems, I, for one, am a big fan of reviving extinct species. Having said that, we now need to start doing more to protect endangered wildlife and their habitats right now today.
I should have, also, said that I put this video on my "Reviving Extinct & Endangered Life" TH-cam Playlist.
I understand you point and I agree with it in some sense, however De-extinction will bring lots of money from investors who otherwise wouldn't be interested in conservation.
I think we should use the efforts and resources to conserve and protect living species.
They've recently hatched an egg of daphnia from 700years back :). so freaking cool.
Think about that...We aren't God? No man should do that? Satan does that, look what's happening now?!!!
Personally, I would love to let this happen. But cloning can only be used to fix mistakes we as humans have made. If its for a cloning a pet, no. But if its to bring back a species that we made extinct, I say go for it.
This is one method of the de extinction process(mammoths)
Behaviour is very important,what if you were born in africa,would you behave the same way you do or think as were you live
Good
i want species to come back. i love to see a dodo. but, to just keep them in zoos and reserves...its abit like bringing back a dead grandparent to life but they are only alive if they stay on the life support machine. once that machine goes off theyre dead again
De-extinction is more dangerous than extinction itself, it's about pitching human capacity against the ultimate creator - nature! I wouldn't know of any such group of people, and I'd be happy to be proven wrong, who could possible run the world and decide which species are allowed to go extinct and which are worth saving (or even can definitely put a number to the number, types, and populations of all species on Earth) and describe a definite science to the way the world can achieve a stable equilibrium. That Earth is a dynamic equilibrium changes the game every few hours, or days, or years makes this a damn farce!
"Nature's" not what's making these things go extinct. WE ARE!
Humants are a cancer in the Nature. They destroy everything, we are destroying our planet! Humans are far much too many! we should regulate our number on Earth. Ressources are not planned to support 7,5 Billion of predators. We should have the Courage to face this fact!
We are part of nature,if not finish yourself
99 % of all species that have ever existed on this planet have become extinct without any assistance from mankind but now we are forced to accept blame for what is happening naturally now. Humanity is a part of nature. If species become extinct because of us then it's only natural. Hatred of your own species is a mental illness. Don't feel guilty as a result of natural processes.
