passed down to us. And I'm puzzled that those memories concur all around the world on a serious cataclysmic event. What is it that the your your people that aren't puzzled and are certain belief?Yeah, they think that um glacial lakes in North America uh gradually grew in
of others. But on this day, in August 2024, when the two loggers worked, this witness of the centuries came crashing down to the canopy with such cataclysmic power that it shook the earth. And then you go on to talk about how the shaking of the earth was felt and heard by the uncontacted tribe.
I don't dispute that. Glacial lakes were involved, but those lakes were filled up at a massive speed. Nobody disputes that the Younger Dryas was a cataclysmic event. It's just that the degree of the cataclysm that's disputed and what caused it that's disputed.
Such a belief would surely awaken us to the urgent ethical imperative attached to it, shake our collective conscience, and render us willing to make small sacrifices in the present to avoid cataclysmic ones in the future. Intellectually accepting the truth isn't virtuous in and of itself.
ages covered North America with ice these are profound changes it's not just oh it's 73 today and I used to be 70 these are absolutely cataclysmic changes so okay how do you avoid part of my talk is about how do you avoid going in the closet rocking back and forth and giving up and my answer to that in part that I'm going to talk more about it is the

And then on a Tuesday morning, think about an environment-- let's say, 2011. Even if that means there is this cataclysmic event and then the market rebounds and we're forced to buy back and hire as a new uptrend, that's fine.
And sometimes you think, oh, was this the right move for me? But then you look at sort of the cataclysmic jumps of each thing that happens, and it worked out for me. It's been a bumpy road at times.
Cut to stock footage of a man talking about producing high school yearbooks. Cut back to the woman telling Silver about an impending cataclysmic event. Micro cuts to old commercials.
Up until this point, string quartet playing was tune, diva, backup band. So what happens to begin this quartet signifies a really cataclysmic change in what the quartet could be. So here's the opening of Opus 20, Number 2.
These things would just deal with immediate political requirements. If you look historically, cataclysmic wars tend to begin with the development of new forms of technology, new forms of organizing violence, and only end when new political arrangements are developed that are capable of managing that technology-- those new threats.
But by early 2001 things started to look pretty ugly here in the Bay Area. I don't know how many of you were here in the Bay Area working at that time, but between 2001 and 2005, we all know the Bay Area suffered through a pretty cataclysmic downturn especially here in the Valley. In fact between 2001 and 2005, Silicon Valley hotels experienced a 53 percent drop in revenues on average. So imagine if your industry saw a 53 percent drop in revenues for the industry
It was in immersing myself in a new culture, seeing things I had never seen before. Both travel and magic are similar in their ability to deliver this cataclysmic death blow to any sense of certainty you have about who you are and how you fit in with the world around you.
Really, I don't know, I just can't explain it. Looking at it in person, it is kind of cataclysmic . You gotta cry.
You think, what happened here? What went on? And it's sandstorms and all this cataclysmic stuff. In the iridium layer, it's pretty easy to spot it.
And then I just did what I always do, which is I looked at the broad-- the sort of Howard Zinn "People's History of the United States" version of the 20th century-- and then looked at the events that were the most cataclysmic and the so-called turning point events, and then started to lay those out and go, OK, well then, how would the story intersect here?
But then 65 million years ago, there was a cataclysmic event that happened very quickly called the Cretaceous extinction event.
for a very long time and all the buildings burned and it mean it was truly cataclysmic and the scientists still look at the western Iberian
And the thing about foundation regrets-- that's what makes them so tricky, Jenny, is that when-- that decision is not cataclysmic for anybody, typically.
Now, at one stroke, the fact that it's a repeating source tells you that it cannot be a cataclysmic event.
Will, on the other hand, some kind of disaster or some kind of cataclysmic set of conditions happen where we decimate our population
And I reckon it was in one scene, in one experience, the reality of lightning-- I understood that understanding the nature of lightning, understanding that it's a static discharge from the clouds that explodes to the ground in this cataclysmic blast-- knowing the facts about lightning does nothing to remove the astonishment of being in the middle of a thunderstorm.
How do they fit into this whole history of life? And now, as a photographer and as a filmmaker I'm trying to think of how do you make a film about perhaps the most cataclysmic event in the world that nobody knows about, but give them a sense of hope after they see the film.
We expect to be able to record a whole range, as long as it's kind of cataclysmic , big, astrophysical phenomena.
And that's why it's called the Big Bang theory because only a woman could have had a reverberation so profound and so cataclysmic
Over these last few years, maybe the last year, the last couple of years, there have been such cataclysmic stories from all over the globe,
And that should happen over the next 10 years, not so that the world goes into total cataclysmic economic shock,
rather than come up with a plan like that, we just sort of create this sort of cataclysmic event which will sort of allow us to start asking those questions.
Younger Dryas was a cataclysmic event. It's just that the degree of the cataclysm that's disputed and what caused it that's disputed. But everyone agrees that humans are 300 15,000 years old.
