The bar next to each date shows how long ago it was said: 7d is days, 4yr is years.

John Maeda recommends it affiliate
So if you're getting started in the resilience and safety universe, here are a few book recommendations I can suggest for you. They span many interests of mine ranging from design, business, leadership, inclusion, and the emergency sector.

I may loose some friends by saying this, but having finally watched it I really liked it, and approve. It's true that Gore's occupying a familiar social role, that of the prophet, but so what? (How consciously he's doing this, I couldn't guess.) As Scott Aaronson says in a different context, this is a familiar role because it is is something that works, given human psychology and social organization.

That little bar

It says how long ago something was said, so you can tell last month from 2014 without doing the arithmetic. Full and green is recent; it drains and cools as the date gets older, and empties completely at about 6 years.

A striped bar means the date itself is an estimate — the source did not carry an exact one. An entry with no date at all gets no bar.
