Explore the Amazon rainforest’s flying rivers, and dig into why these invisible waterways are essential to life on Earth.
--
The largest rainforest in the world, the Amazon, exists between two rivers - but not in the way you might think. At ground level, the Amazon River and its tributaries weave their path. But above the canopy, bigger waterways are on the move. These flying rivers are almost invisible, but are essential to life on Earth. Iseult Gillespie explores how this crucial system keeps the rainforest alive.
Lesson by Iseult Gillespie, directed by Upamanyu Bhattacharyya, Otter Studios.

    • And that expectation isn't for Earth's sake. It's for our sake. She was here before humans. If humans are insane enough to make her uninhabitable to themselves and therefore go extinct, guess who will still be here: Earth. We grossly mistake our cleverness for intelligence. It's the antithesis of intelligence when it disregards the whole of what Life, the Universe and Earth herself are teaching and have taught us. The most truly intelligent people are like those natives, whatever continent they may be on. Modern culture has sold its intelligence and indeed its soul for cleverness and social, political, and societal games its collective mind cooks up.

  • It is interesting how indigenous people have done a better job of conservation. Some people say that they have no accomplishments but I would count this in itself as an accomplishment. They have shown more far-sightedness when it comes to the future and our liveability in the environment than most others who prioritized short term financial greed.

    • Which indigenous people? They're not a monolith, every civilization in Mesoamerica had different practices. Quite a few in the Amazon practiced slash and burn because charcoal was really the only way to make jungle soil suitable for agriculture, called "terra preta". Which is basically the same thing as they're doing now, it was just on a smaller scale. If the Aztecs had the technology and hundreds of millions of mouths to feed they probably would be doing something similar. They were willing to sacrifice thousands of people a year for good harvests I doubt they would balk at cutting down trees en masse instead. Plus, they already did cut down lots of trees for agricultural purposes. It just wasn't at a scale big enough to constitute an ecological disaster. All of the most powerful Mesoamerican civilizations engaged in a lot of geoengineering of their surroundings. Clearing out fields, cutting irrigation ditches and water reservoirs, building farm terraces, building chinampas, etc. All of which involved cutting down trees. Again it just wasn't at a scale that caused much damage because their populations were much smaller than today.

    • Nobody has to be displaced, give back the land to the original natives to preside over, and everyone else just lives there, too. Like nothing happened, problem solved. There should be no reservations or "our land and their land" things going on. Basically, the reverse version of assimilation. Instead of the native nations assimilating into the major nation, it's the other way around or at least full autonomy given to the tribes and reservations.

    • Clouds are part of this process. The river metaphor is basically just describing the consistent flow of large amounts of water, it's doesn't actually happen in discrete channels like a river. Rather, it's the air over a jungle (or other high-transpiration area) in general being higher in moisture (though still only a small fraction of the air is water vapor, about 4% at the very most) and getting blown in certain directions by prevailing winds. It's basically using the metaphor of a river to explain the aerial part of the water cycle. I feel like the video does well at expressing that the vegetation is very important to maintaining precipitation patterns and its clearance is immensely disruptive, but it did really poorly at actually explaining why that is and how it works, creating new misconceptions.

  • Nature is the real wealth, humans and our money will come and go. Nature was before we came and will be after we are gone.

    • Read 'Braiding Sweetgrass'. Humans have been here for hundreds of thousands of years. Indigenous folk have honored the human tradition of living in a fully mutually beneficial collaboration with nature for the bulk of that history. Money is VERY new to our species, and wildly corrosive. If we do not let go of money, then humans truly WILL find their end...but we don't _have_ to end, for things to be well for both us and nature. Not by a long shot.
