One area that you're particularly passionate about is the ocean. You and your son Mark co-founded Ocean X, which focuses on exploring, researching, and above all, protecting the ocean. What impact is the changing climate having on the ocean?

Um, beyond raising temperatures, tell us more about why you think the ocean's so important.

Well, the ocean is absorbing about 90% of the excess heat, and it's absorbing about 23% of the excess carbon that's being produced. So, it's important. It also has the effect of shifting sea currents and so on, so it's going to have a big effect.

The ocean is our biggest thing. It's twice the size of all land combined, and so it's ignored because it's just below the surface. But it has an enormous impact. Its health and the discovery of what's in the ocean is not only very important, but it's also very exciting.

However, it's being largely neglected. So, we're excited to help the exploration and bring it to the public's attention the way Jacques Cousteau did.

Adding with integer chips | Integers: Addition and subtraction | 7th grade | Khan Academy

Let’s say I wanted to figure out what negative 2 plus negative 4 is equal to. There are a bunch of ways of thinking about them, but what we’re going to do in this video is think about it using something called integer chips. So, with integer chips, if I …

These Warriors Once Hunted Lions—Now They Protect Them | National Geographic

[Music] My father was a warrior and they used to kill many, many, many lions. He used to tell me how dangerous lions are. I used to headlock [Music]. When I was a young boy, I thought I’ll be growing up until a lion [Music]. But now relax because there’s …

Graphing arithmetic sequences | Algebra I (TX TEKS) | Khan Academy

We are told that F of n is equal to F of n minus 1 plus 6. So, the value of this function for each term n is defined in terms of the value of the function for previous terms. We’re essentially adding six to the previous term for each whole number n, where…

Worked example: separable equation with an implicit solution | Khan Academy

We’re given a differential equation right over here: cosine of y + 2, this whole thing times the derivative of y with respect to x is equal to 2x. We’re given that for a particular solution, when x is equal to 1, y of 1 is equal to zero. We’re asked, what…

Solving square-root equations: no solution | Mathematics III | High School Math | Khan Academy

Let’s say that we have the radical equation: the square root of 3x minus seven plus the square root of 2x minus one is equal to zero. I encourage you to pause the video and see if you can solve for X before we work through it together. Alright, so one t…
