Can Storytelling Get the Climate Crisis More Attention? Yuval Noah Harari at Cambridge University
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 май 2024
- Can ecological collapse compete with a viral TikTok? Humans haven't evolved to notice long-term impacts on their environment: we're pretty bad at it. Scientists need the urgent help of the entertainment industry to tell the story of the climate crisis in a way that will capture hearts and minds. And perhaps one place to start is to highlight that despite culture wars and identity politics, all people share a similar biology that will be impacted by a climate apocalypse.

Filmed at the University of Cambridge in February 2024.

The world might pay more attention to the warnings if they were delivered by Sophie Howe -- Wales former Future Generations Commissioner. She would definitely grab more attention than Antonio Gutierrez's Dracula accent
This is exactly what write as film noir mystery. Very hard to get produced. Dark Heat
🎉
And it definitely isn't me
Salute my friend. I always loved your books, as well as your public interviews. I'm very glad to see you got that message.
I agree. We need more films and narratives on climate change. It's the world's foremost problem at this point for sure!!
9!
Great question and follow up. Good answers also.
1:29 Yuval Noah Harari: "In terms of what kind of story to tell, ultimately I think it's about getting down from our minds to our bodies, because in our minds cultures create very different cultural stories for each human group, which set us apart. But our bodies are still, like, basically the same everywhere. So, if our identity was less connected to the inventions of our minds and more embedded in our bodies I think it will be a an important step, not just for tackling the climate crisis but for tackling all the major problems that we face."
Don’t give him ideas, do you think that is good for us humans?
He is against us humans and in favor of AI.
He is agents since, because nowhere is shown humans are changing climate. No one of the spinets doesn’t have idea how everything on the planet works. Only one god knows what is the actual climate is, and why is behaving that way. We humans know a little about a lot in terms of climate or anything else.
Sorry, this paragraph has no connection to climate change and " Climate Crisis" in this context is just a grandiose word to create emotional impact- fear.
Try to use your personal itelligence instead of being a sheep to who said what.
@@mfre897 - I always thought it was the mainstay of RUclips comments to tell everyone to "do the research" without actually providing any, and then refer to them as sheep.
You've actually demonstrated precisely the cultural invention of our minds (perhaps RUclips commentary culture?), and the speciesism implicit in the latter part of this video clip...have you met a sheep? If it's so much better to be a human its because of our self-imposed hierarchy of exploitation over them, all animals, and the environment. Harari is suggesting that "personal intelligence" is in the way of understanding that sheep are like us in all the ways that matter.

Wouldn't more public debates help a lot more? Such as with the scientists who appeared in Climate The Movie?
Climate the Movie, I loved it! Funniest comedy ever!!!
@@ceeemm1901 Well I'm agnostic on the severity of the climate issue, but I thought the questions asked in that doco were serious and intelligent not humorous. I'd prefer public debates between experts rather than segragated sects.
Problem of our time is the word expert. There are real experts and geniuses of their subject, but too many idiots call themselves experts and are trusted by millions. People tend to believe, in a democracy their thoughts and opinions are just as right and correct as a real fact, and this is terrible
@@patriq1 Yes Galileo knew this in a very concrete way. In his time universities were still churches. Many today would see universities are becoming "churches" again. I think when in doubt the best measure of which view to trust is the one willing to subject itself to debate in the public square.

Is there a chemist in the house? How did the greatest flourishing of life on this planet, the Cambrian, ‘suffer’ exuberant growth at 6,000+ppm? The CO2 rule of thumb I learned is for every 100ppm added there are diminishing returns - rapidly approaching zero. It’s logarithmic describing the upper limit of what CO2 can even reflect.
Scary IPCC bed-time stories has people peeing their bed over the number 450ppm. Yes, bring on more fables about how our fizzy-drinks will boil babies.
No one is peeing the bed more that you and the oil company executives .
It's about who lives on the planet. Is it so hard to understand other species or plants can live under extreme temperatures or CO2 concentration, but mammals can simply not?
You must be the funniest kid in your kindergarten, hahaha...
Finally Jonathan brings scientific evidence. The real pollution from oil companies is Not CO2 but organic poisonouse compunds VOCs.
Nobody died from CO2 but only from CO.
No chance of dying from CO2 since the more CO2 exists in the air more plants grow and consume it for growth. In fact farmers add CO2 to there greenhouses for a better product.

You are legend of time
Calling a future slaves master a legend is crazy

Interesting how quiet Yuval has been on the current genocide.
just like you supporters of hamas on oct 7
@@RamSingh-hd6bg labelling people who speak out against the IDF murdering and displacing millions of innocent people 'supporters of Hamas' is an incredibly reductive thing to say.
@@slimjim6669 a genocide which apparently they have been doing for 75 years and that has increased the Palestinians population to 8 times since 1948? I wonder where people like you disappear when 5 million people die in Syria, or when muslim regime kills Muslim in Yemen, taliban in Afghanistan. But start to play your leftist victim card when israel retaliates after being attacked
@@slimjim6669
labeling people who call Palestinian Arab fascists (Hamas) freedom fighters and then masquerade themself as empaths is definitely not a reductive
thing to do.
And innocent people don't elect by 70% Amin al-Husseini ideology back to power. Stupid people do.
Delusional.
Only progress can save humanity. I fact a story scaring people away from progress will destroy us.
You lizard king
John 14:6 Jesus said to him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.
1 Corinthians 15:3 that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, and that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the Scriptures.
Romans 10:9 that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. 🌍
Daryl 3:24- "Uh-Oh Spaghetti-OH!"
A new one? Hahahha use the one the decade before last.
Your lies will all be exposed and God will judge you Yuval
You spelled, "propaganda", wrong.
Literally came here to comment that.
Nonesense. 😂😂 " You spelled propaganda wrong"?? What a weak tactic to really suspect propaganda.
@@mfre897 Yes. You typed nonsense. That's not a word.
It's definitely worth thinking about, this is a danger. But look up what propaganda is and think about what these people are saying. If they were really making propaganda (ala The Big Myth style) this conversation would be behind closed doors. That it's being held openly to point at facts makes it something else. Propaganda is a specific kind of content schemes at- like NELA rewriting textbooks in the 40s.
@@ElectricNed "If they were really making propaganda (ala The Big Myth style) this conversation would be behind closed doors."
Propaganda, by nature, must be public. Its purpose is to influence the masses.
Climate Crisis. 😂
Yeah, haha, on a flat earth! How dumb are they, eh?
These are the wrong conversations entirely.
