business of fossils
The reading and listening discussing buying and selling of fossils, and their consequences. The article states that this buying and selling of fossils is an unfortunate development for both scientists and the general public. The author provides three reasons for support. However, the speaker explains that the business of fossil absolutely outweigh its disadvantages and refute each of the author's reason.
Firstly, the speaker mentions the general public, as because of the fossils business, small institutions can buy them and show to the public, like a small school, university. Because many fossils found, it leads to its business. So, it is not true that private collectors can buy fossils and the general public can not see that. This challenges the claim made in the reading that the public suffers because of fossils can not found in museums and their interest decline, too.
Secondly, the lecturer states that all the fossils first come to the hand of the scientist expert, they evaluate its values and examine fossil well. She also states that when private collector buy that fossils, before that they go to the scientists, so scientists did not miss any crucial facts of the fossils. They have first access to the newly found fossils. This rejects the point made in the article that scientists lose access because of private collector buy it.
Finally, the speaker explains that sometimes private collector damage to the rare fossils. She suggests that it is better that scientists should find more fossils. If they find more fossils then they can find many fossils like other and rarity does not become a problem for that. This rebuts the assertion made in the reading that commercial fossils collectors ofter destroy fossils, and these fossils contain valuable evidence.
In conclusion, the lecturer effectively casts doubt on all the claims presented in the reading.
