Turkish man offers large sum of money for fossil evidence of human-frog evolution

TLDR A Turkish man is offering a significant amount of money for a fossil that proves the evolutionary link between humans and frogs. Mass extinctions in the past have wiped out a large percentage of species on Earth, raising concerns about the potential extinction of humans if certain organisms become extinct.

00:00 A Turkish author is offering a large sum of money for definitive fossil evidence of evolution.
02:45 A Turkish man is offering a large sum of money for definitive fossil evidence of evolution, specifically an intermediate form fossil that connects humans to frogs.
05:28 In times of warm global temperatures, mass extinctions have historically occurred, leading to the question of whether humans will soon be extinct.
08:10 Mass extinctions in the past have wiped out 95% of all species on Earth, and if certain organisms become extinct, it could lead to a domino effect that eventually causes humans to go extinct as well.
10:26 Nitrogen is essential for crops to grow, and it is naturally present in the soil through the process of worms digesting microbes, which then release Nitrogen as a waste product that feeds the crops.
13:00 Loss of biodiversity, such as the loss of worms, can lead to a loss of nitrogen in the soil and crop failure, but humans have the ability to survive mass extinctions due to our intelligence and ability to adapt.
