    Hey Goodhumans! This was one of the most requested episodes we’ve had. It was also one of the toughest to tackle for our team, but deeply illuminating for us as well. We hope the same for you.
    Here at Jubilee, we believe in the value of open & honest discussions in order to pave a path towards empathy and develop a better understanding of people with different perspectives. Capturing the complexity and deeper nuances of a topic in a short period is incredibly difficult. However, we hope this discussion can inspire you to dive deeper and spark your own conversations. We’d love to be a part of it and hear your own insights below, so please share 🙂

      And China...guess what. They are the worst country for pollution. Right now they are on par with the US for CO2 emission, but they have three times the population, so in the future it will be three times the pollution.
      And then there is Brazil, which chops down their rain forest for money and India, which is just another China.

(Loosing people, money, etc) We have to do better; not just ban things. Little things help but it will help greatly in the future. For example, banning plastic bags or common plastic items (or reducing selling amounts which will make someone very upset).

    I live in Belgium and there have currently been catastrophic inundations because of climate change. Homes were destroyed, villages were underwater, people drowed, people died. Even though all of this happened nowhere near where I lived, some children in my school did. While I was having the best holiday in spain, I got emailed by the school. While a student was in summer camp, she fell into the river, she was swept away by the current of the river and found by a farmer, dead in a field, far away from where she was last seen. She was only 14.
    And I am now watching a pair of old people gambling on and on about how none of this is true, that this extremely brutal climate change is just natural? They are the generation who started to destroy our earth, and they are still shamelessly
    continuing to do so. While they have fulfilled there "destiny" and lived there life, because of their ignorance and their selfishness, young people pay the priceof their actions, the future of humanity is dying.
    And I'm beginning to think, maybe a world without humanity would be a better world.

      There are some cases where you might want to do it, but I see that on most cases is just to have "pretty grass".
      you don't need to have the greenest lawn in the neighbourhood, that's just a waste for your own ego.
      we already have a huge use of water for golf fields and an excessive meat production (fields of food to feed animals). I think that that is plenty enough.
      We are the biggest consumers of meat and the biggest owner of running water. WE have the responsibility to preserve our resources.

      The reason China and India produces so much C02 is that they have the largest populations and are fast growing nations.

Its about sharing views and finding a MIDDLE GROUND. They werent debating each other. The climate scientist just stated facts that he has studied for a long time while the other person was talking about things that she was clearly not familiar with.

      He's speaking as if everything is China's fault and he's gonna use that as an excuse to justify why they shouldn't have to change, but if people keep on pointing fingers then no one I the end will change. Change starts with oneself first, rather than waiting for someone else to make the first move why not take that first step yourself. I'm sure there's people in China who's also trying to make a change, it just takes time and effort because a they're mostly outnumbered by those who'd rather destroy the environment than try to be eco friendly. The smallest action like switching off a room's light when it's not in use can make a difference, never underestimate the smallest change

    Something I didn't hear when the activists and skeptics were discussing costs is the impact on the economically disadvantaged. Many people cannot simply choose to drive less because they commute to work & can't easily get new jobs closer to their homes. Also, the average person can't just go out & buy a Tesla. Some middle class families can afford hybrid vehicles, but people trying to work their way out of poverty (or keep from slipping into poverty) have to drive whatever kind of car they can afford, even if it's not "green."

    Climate change is like investing long term. It might not seem that important now and will not show you results now, but in a couple of years the rule of compounding really kicks in and then you realise how important it is.

      There are a few places in Japan that specialize in moss lawns. They produce more oxygen, use less water, and are avascular, so don't grow as high as regular grass. I can't wait to grow my own.
      And can you imagine the look on your neighbors face when you move into the neighborhood with your moss patches?

    Could you do a video on nuclear energy and it’s relation/role in climate change (as a clean vs. dirty form of energy)? Also maybe considering Thorium etc.? Since they’re shutting down all nuclear plants here in Germany that would be awesome - maybe some other people would be interested in this as well! Thank you for your consideration.
