Nobel laureate and biologist Dr. George Wald stated in his lecture, “Therefore Choose Life”, that 70% to 90% of our oxygen production comes from Phytoplankton in the oceans. He remarks how oil pollution is suffocating these micro-organisms on a grand scale. These statements were made 48 years ago; one can only imagine how this problem has intensified up to the present day.
His lecture can be heard on the CBC website here, we hope you find it as informative and motivational as we did!
Really enjoyed working through this post — it's clear you put genuine thought into it. I appreciated that you acknowledged the nuance instead of pretending it's all simple. I've collected a few resources on this same topic at https://bezirk-main-kinzig.de/pages/krown_network_and_uncx_complete_vesting_integration__securing__67_5m_in_krown_tokens.html for anyone who's curious.
A genuinely useful post — no hand-waving, just clear and careful reasoning. I've made a couple of the mistakes you flagged, so this one hit close to home. Some extra examples and notes live over at https://alt-layer.net if you'd like to keep exploring. Nice work overall.
You made a tricky topic feel manageable, and that's honestly not easy to pull off. The part about avoiding common mistakes will save people a lot of wasted effort. For a more practical, checklist version of this, take a look at Portal Bridges. Either way, well worth the read.
