I’ve watched Bio-Dome at least 12 times. And naturally, during these turbulent times, I’ve picked up Bud (Pauly Shore) and Doyle’s (Stephen Baldwin) habit. So here I sit, tuning in for my 13th time with my weed pen, ready to catch up with my two favorite stoners.
I’ve talked to many folks in metropolitan areas who are yearning for nature. From my couch on the south side, living in the Biosphere 2 bubble doesn’t seem so bad. With access to a rainforest, an ocean with coral reefs, wetlands, and so much more, this group of scientists was able to engage with nature in an uninterrupted way. The area in which the scientists lived included animals, too: Pygmy goats, 35 hens, two sows, a dwarf pig, horses, and tilapia fish were all living amongst the biospherians.
