Are superorganisms the highest level of evolution? Yes, because its all elements are thinking about one thing only: how to adapt and how to survive another generation.
Evolution is survival of the fittest, not the most clever or strongest... or is it? The Atrum team is exploring a bizarre life form where thousands of individuals act as one, sacrificing everything for the group. Watch the video to find out how they operate with a single will, a unified consciousness that blurs the line between individuals, the video is interesting enough because it is explaining and showing you that this is the superorganism, and Astrum is uncovering how this ultimate collaboration re-writes the laws of nature itself.

Bans on social media and phones: what's the evidence?
Mobile phones or however you call them (smartphones, cell phones, ec) have become an essential part of most people’s everyday lives, and debates about them in schools - as well as teenagers’ access to social media - are internationally hot topics. BBC team explores different approaches to social media and phone bans around the world and this is an interesting What in the World podcast episode uploaded a few months ago.
BBC journalist Hayley Clarke joined them in the studio to talk through different approaches to social media and phone bans in schools around the world. We also hear from students in France and the current USA about how they would feel about potential bans.
Hannah Ritchie, another BBC journalist, chats to us from Australia, where the government says it will introduce "world-leading" legislation to ban children under 16 from social media.
They are joined from two professors on opposing sides of the debate, and they ask whether the scientific evidence behind the bans is robust.

MTG-S1 and Copernicus Sentinel-4 launch highlights
Something interesting to watch and watch again: two meteorological missions – Meteosat Third Generation Sounder-1 (MTG-S1) and the Copernicus Sentinel-4 mission – have launched on board a SpaceX Falcon 9 from Cape Canaveral in Florida, current USA.
Both are world-class Earth observation missions developed with European partners to address scientific and societal challenges.
The MTG-S1 satellite will generate a completely new type of data product, especially suited to nowcasting severe weather events, with three-dimensional views of the atmosphere. It is the second in the MTG constellation to be prepared for orbit and is equipped with the first European operational Infrared Sounder instrument.
Copernicus Sentinel-4 will be the first mission to monitor European air quality from geostationary orbit, providing hourly information that will transform how the scientists predict air pollution across Europe, using its ultraviolet, visible, near-infrared light (UVN) spectrometer.
The science behind ACL injuries in women's football - Ri Science Podcast
Women's football is quite interesting because one can see many beautiful women practicing sport and playing around with a ball, but the sport is not 100% safe. Injuries do happen and they should avoid it.
The Women's Euros kick off next Wednesday, once again bringing attention to the epidemic of Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) injuries in women’s football. But why is it that women are six times more likely to suffer from these injuries than men, and what research is being done to understand it further?
This month The Royal Institution team is looking at the science behind the ACL, and what factors researchers are investigating that influence injury susceptibility. They are joined by Blake Rivers, whose PhD at Kingston University is being funded by FIFA to investigate the impact of the menstrual cycle on ACL injuries, and Grace Vella, a footballer and entrepreneur who is 5 months into her ACL rehabilitation following on from reconstructive surgery.
Changing the World (Literally), with Daniele Visione & Holly Buck
The atmosphere is heating more and more each year because of human activities, so you need to clear it or at least to avoid the temperature increasing as much we can. Could we create an atmospheric sun shield to halt the effects of global warming? Should we do it? Will it help us or will it kill us faster? Neil deGrasse Tyson, Chuck Nice, and Gary O’Reilly are joined by climate scientist Daniele Visioni and sociologist Holly Jean Buck to explore the science and ethics of deliberately altering Earth’s climate.

Arnold Schwarzenegger says “stop whining” about Donals Trump's climate policy and "take action"
And he is damn right. Listen him carefully and do that. Stop complaining and take action.
The actor, former California governor and environmental campaigner Arnold Schwarzenegger has said people should "stop whining" about President Trump's approach to climate change and understand they must take action themselves.
Speaking to the BBC's Laura Kuenssberg at the Austrian World Summit, organized by the Schwarzenegger's Climate Initiative, he said the current USA current president could not prevent progress on tackling the threat of global warming. Donald Trump has reversed many US initiatives to support the environment and pulled out of international agreements to tackle climate change and he is damn wrong. We probably wants to kill many people for money by doing that, maybe the entire human race.

Vaccine cancer mechanisms
mRNA vaccines to cause cancer may cause cancer, there is a potential for that, and Dr. John Campbell is speaking about that. Listen him but continue to get vaccinated. You can use the older generation of vaccines or the newer one (the mRNA vaccines), but you continue to get vaccinated. Life is a risk and one you stay alive when the conditions are bad.
I Walked Through HELL and Came Back STRONGER
Life is not simple and for every person there is a time when the pain is unbearable, the fire is too hot, and the battle is too brutal.
But instead of running, a strong person steps into the flames and continues walking on them and through them. If you let them consume you they may them forge you. And when the fire died down… you will no longer the same. You won't just survive, you will became unbreakable.
Be stronger. Be patient. Be wiser.

What you don't know about Hepatitis B | Supa Chantschool | TEDxNHS
Learn out more Hepatitis B from this TEDx and take care, don't get sick. The story from the video can be an example from which you can learn.
At 8 years old, Supa Chantschool went to his doctor for travel vaccinations prior to a family holiday. It was at this appointment that Supa and his family learned of his Hepatitis B diagnosis and subsequently his mother's diagnosis too. It is possible to live for a long time without any knowledge of Hep B however there are serious health implications which could be avoided or even cured with early diagnosis and treatment. Supa shares his story of diagnosis and of misinformation and stigma about this common but hugely misunderstood condition.
Supa Chantschool is a visionary leader and founding member of Hep B Companion, a non-profit organization dedicated to empowering individuals living with hepatitis B.

Master Shi Heng Yi – 5 hindrances to self-mastery | Shi Heng YI | TEDxVitosha
If you haven't watch the video already in the last 5 video since it was uploaded on YouTube you should watch it. Or you can watch the video again because you deserve to meet one more time Shaolin Master Shi Heng Yi in his serene talk about self-discovery and you may want to learn more why rainfall is an essential part of each flowering. And every small step – part of the journey to the highest peek. The hindrances along the way to self-discovery and personal growth are easy to overcome.
Learn how from his talk. For more than 30 years, Master Shi Heng Yi has been studying and practicing the interaction between mind and body. His strength is the ability to smoothly combine this knowledge with physical exercises and to practice Martial art –Kung Fu and Qi Gong. He has an academic background but he prefers to live at the Shaolin Temple Europe, Monastery located in Otterberg, Germany. Once shaolin, always shaolin, right?
Since 2010 he has been taking care of the settlement and he personifies the sustainable development and spreading the Shaolin culture and philosophy. As a contemporary monk, Master Yi holds a smartphone in the folds of his clothes as he sees no contradiction between living together with ancient knowledge and high technology. “The universal law of being successful and happy at the same time means finding the balance”, says master Yi. And as for flying – yes, he really can do it! He only needs a stick and a little space. We expect him to fly-in and share about the Shaolin way at TEDxVitosha 2020.
