How a Hawaiian island is fighting invasive parakeets | PBS NewsHour - 1 views

  •  
    On the Hawaiian island of Kauai, rose-ringed parakeets, which are often kept as pets, have bred in the wild, destroying farms and bothering residents. They may also be threatening native plants. PBS NewsHour Weekend's Megan Thompson reports on local efforts to battle the invasive birds. Good 'cane Toad' like parallels.

Richard Dawkins: Hawaii as a Nursery of Evolution - Nebraska Vignettes #6 - YouTube - 0 views

  •  
    This study could work as a follow-up to immigration / emigration island biodiversity / biogeography topics. I would look up the original work through the Nebraska state museums. Dawkins has a lot of good short videos, but be careful to watch them ahead of time for his rather common aggressive social statements that might cause parent issues.

    Part 3. The ending is disturbing to my students, they realize how we can never clean up this mess... we must stop using the plastic. They all start bring stainless water containers to class from this point. No more plastic water bottles in class!!

Garbage Island: An Ocean Full of Plastic (Part 1/3) - YouTube - 0 views

    Caution!! Foul language alert!! I really like the science in this video.. This ship captain has been visiting this part of the ocean for 30 plus years, so, I like the visuals and his input. The scientist on board is also very good. However, I get release forms signed by parents before showing these videos because the language is offensive to me. My students say it's not a big deal. I still mute the really foul parts :) An eye opener about plastic!
