BBC To Keep Doctor Who Running For Another FIVE Years
The BBC Are To Keep Doctor Who Running For At Least Another FIVE Years Or Even More!
Doctor Who has been running since 23rd November 1963. Nearly 52 years later, the show is still on our screens. In 1989 the show was cancelled by the BBC. In 2005 Russell T Davies brought the show back to our screens. The show celebrated it's 50th Anniversary in 2013. Then this year (2015) it celebrated it's 10th Anniversary. Confused? No need to be, it celebrated it's 10th Anniversary since the Revival in 2005.
Russell Brought The Show Back In 2005
The BBC have put out a plan to keep the greatest Sci-Fi show on for another FIVE years. The BBC are expecting it to do more than that though. Will it do another 50 years? Steven Moffat has actually revealed that when Russell and the BBC brought the show back in 2005, featuring Christopher Eccleston and Billlie Piper, he wasn't expecting it to last this long.
Steven Moffat - Current Showrunner
“I didn’t think it would last 10 years with BBC Worldwide trying to get me in a room to talk about their plan for the next five years". “So it’s going to do a minimum of 15 years.”- Steven Moffat
BBC Bosses have warned the writers that the show can only do these planned five years if they can find the actors and actresses to be in the show. Moffat has admitted in the DWM that "It isn't easy to find new Doctors".
The 12th Doctor And Clara
To keep the show going, the people of it are going to need to be hardworking and passionate about it. The show does require hard work otherwise if the show is tacky people will lose interest in it. With Top Gear currently not on the BBC anymore, Doctor Who is going to have to prove itself that this is going to be the top show of the BBC.
With the effort put into the show, there's no reason why it can't go on for another 50 years!

Human Evolution and Climate Change
The Question An oft asked question relates to how humans and every other species on the planet will or will not adapt to the new environmental conditions that climate change will quite probably (and arguably already has) impose across much of the globe. For other species the answer is fairly obvious, they will either adapt or they will perish. As has been the case throughout all of earth’s history, evolution through natural selection requires that those with the traits that are best adapted to reproduce will do so and so pass them on, especially when pressed by changes in the environment. Many argue that the changes we are seeing or will soon see as a result of climate change are occurring too rapidly for many species to adapt. In essence that evolution cannot keep up with the pace of change. Mutations simply cannot occur frequently enough to supply a wide enough variety of phenotypes of different varieties to allow for at least one that can survive the new conditions any given species may find itself in. Rapid changes are the hardest for the longest lived (excluding microorganisms), and slowest reproducing creatures to deal with, and they face the greatest threat of massive population decrease or even extinction. I happen to think that adaptation can happen much faster than is typically believed, but am not naïve enough to think that even a greatly accelerated adaptation or mutation process will be enough to save all or even most animal species from the threat of habitat loss or change brought about by global warming.

What chatgpt 4 says about crypto miners?
1) What is crypto and miners? First let’s understand in simple way Think of blockchain like a big book. Every time someone trades digital money (cryptocurrency), it’s like writing in the book. But instead of one book in one place, everyone has a copy of the same book. So, if someone tries to cheat or change a trade, everyone would know because their copies wouldn’t match.
