- Records in global temperatures, greenhouse gas emissions, and ocean heat were broken last year - according to a new report from the UN's World Meteorological Organization. This led to 90 percent of the world's ocean experiencing heatwaves last year - and one impact of those heatwaves is coral bleaching. It devastates marine ecosystems and leads to economic losses in coastal communities. Volunteers in the Indian coastal region of Goa are now trying different ways to give heat-stressed corals a new lease of life.
For more on this, we talk to Henna Hundal. She is a delegate to the UN Climate Change Conferences, and a climate and policy researcher at Stanford University in California and to our Climate Correspondent Louise Osborne.

The answer to the question is easy. Those who profit and earn bilions don't want to.
No man, except Europe that is pushing this because it does not have energy security, nobody cares.
Like Bill Gates perhaps?
So you're saying the average American would be willing to switch to a small EV, move to a smaller house in town where they don't need to drive often, and would support a substantial carbon tax, if only the corporations and wealthy would let them?
@@kenclark3953no that is not what he saying. If the world's 1% really wanted to do something about climate change they could but they are making so much money that they don't care
Yeah always the wealthy’s fault huh
We are more busy fighting each other instead.
Correction: One side is busy getting more land, while the other is busy trying to survive the next day.
@@Helieos45 Well, since the 5G gave the plants internet access, they been looking at pictures of dirt and breathing all heavy and THAT is why the planet is heating up, not the billions of people driving cars around or industry putting giga-tons of CO2 into the atmosphere. It’s the pervy trees.

If the death toll gets high enough we might curb the crisis since we apparently just can't be smart about fixing our infrastructure
Because corporations are inventivized to make money for themselves at the expense of the environment. You know this!
Corporations make money because we buy from them. Every dollar we spend contributes to the climate emergency. We need to stop commuting to work, stop driving when it's not absolutely necessary, buy locally produced food, Stop buying junk clothes that land up in the landfill. Be conscious of plastics and demand less packaging. - - -
True
In Australia, we are so tough we enjoy wildfires, floods and cyclones, whatever doesn't kill us will make us stronger, that's why our governments keep approving new coal mines and gas fields as fast as they can. And the Great Barrier Reef looks so good in pristine white, reminiscent of Greek and Roman antiquities!
Lol
Good . 👍 We need to follow that example. But I know you said that ironically
I do admire and envy everyone who can keep their humor intact through this. Especially when you’re in a place that’s more clearly affected.
Quite a nice analogy since, for example, greek and roman statues used to be painted :D
Not fair on nature
We let saudi arabia organize the meeting to decide what to do.
It took place in the United Arab Emirates (Abu Dhabi)
The West is responsible for 80% of all GHG emissions so far.
It was UAE. However, the UAE has different initiatives for alternative energy used in the own country. Negative side - consum, comfort and reproduction - same issues than in the rest of the world.
And it was attended by many more fossil fuel lobbyists and promoters than delegates.
@@gerryhouska2859 right. Who uses fossil fuel? Not a chance if we don't.

Why are we so surprised! We have already talked about climate changes for decades... The governments all over the world has known this for a long time. So wake up! Spesially the U.S and china. Do more and faster. Greetings from Norway❤
Yep, we knew this when I was in my 20s. I'm 76 and there have been no significant changes made to counteract the deterioration of the environment.
Believing that humans are going to change things now is naive. It will take a higher power to do that..
Can't reduce emissions without reducing fossil fuel use.
Emissions are NOT the problem - the JET ENGINE is the problem!!!
A jet engine burns at one thousand one hundred degrees. A temperature of that extreme will destroy any and all air particles in proximity to it. If you have the interest and time then please investigate this matter for yourself and then share what you learn with others. Last year and the year before that - there were 22,200,000 passenger flights globally. This amount to 44,400,000 one thousand one hundred degree jet engines per year. There will probably be 22,200,000 passenger flights this year as well. That means another 44,400,000 jet engines. Source > NASA / / Source > Finances Online / / Source > Aviation Stack Exchange
By the time real climate action and policy actually are implemented, it will be 3-5 degrees higher, and the world will be very unlike the one we live in now. So disappointing that world governments and corporations maintain the status quo while all other species and habitats suffer for their greed and inaction. We are in for a rough ride everybody, so buckle down. Like my mom often says in her old age, "I'm glad I'll soon be checking out and not have to deal with all that is coming".
My parents say the exact same thing. They quietly and obediently allowed the authorities to destroy their children's world while warning us not to protest because police would put us in jail if we spoke up.
Ban private yacht&private jets. But too bad, the owners of personal yacthes&planes usually are wealthiest members of humanity, so taking away their personal water&air vehicles will never happen.
The Keeling Curve is now floating near 427 ppm and looking likely to reach 430 ppm by June this year. Last year's maximum was barely 425 ppm so C02 levels not showing any signs of declining in the rate of increase.
Wonder when the CEOs from many Media groups start to give the example and open hand of their private jets and luxury cars. Their personal resources consumption is the equivalent of many thousands of people.
That us not destroying the planet war and nukes are wake up
@@robc5877, Its called a symbolic gesture. If the rich and powerful could show that they can adjust by , lets say abolishing private jets, and book flights like ordinary people perhaps convincing change for the masses would be easier. That will never happen though and I am sure that next WEF meeting will see a record number of private jets arrive at Davos.
There are more underlying mechanisms causing global warming with feedback loops all interconnected. Humanity is speeding up and magnifying this round. It can not be stopped and it is a grim picture.
People should show the rise in renewable energy against total energy usage to put it in perspective. Not just electricity, but all energy. It's only a few percent. Also, nobody talks about exponential growth and why we're doomed.
If you are talking about human population growth its reaching a peek before a steep decline. Look at birth and fertility rates.
Malthusian Trap is about to restart. I’m prepping for it by 2026
Profit is more important than human life to the Oligarchy who owns everything in the world.
She forgot to mention that in addition to renewables , the production & consumption of fossil fuels is also increasing.😂
And fission plants are decreasing. Germany closed their fission plants because the powers that be thought they were going to make boatloads of money off the Nord Stream projects. Turns out Putin over played his hand in Ukraine and someone had the bright idea to destroy them to get the insurance payout causing enough methane to be in the atmosphere to classify as one of the biggest environmental disasters in European history as far climate change is concerned. It's probably the biggest series of events in northern Europe since the wall came down and people barely cared. That's the power of real money and control of the media zeitgeist.
@@robc5877 Looks like I hit a little too close to home with my first comment and they deleted it 🤣. Looks like every time I mention that certain natural gas pipeline "accident" in the north sea it gets flagged and deleted, as well as the folks who shut down fission to make money off of it!
@@robc5877 Yeah every time I mention that north sea gas pipe project my comments get flagged and deleted 🤣
what a great news for my morning coffee break, proves that this planet doesnt need us but we need it
Aren't China and India still building Coal fired power plants?
Yep. But China is using coal as a bridge-fuel to power its electric grid while they wait for the nuke biz to get its act together; they are in the midst of modernizing old ones while the nuclear industry is developing its new technology.
It’s a crazy world; brings to mind China was doing something about power plants until Trump pulled the US out of the Paris Accords and took the international pressure off. Just over Eeght years ago, China was tearing down old coal plants twice as fast as they built newer, twice as efficient ones.
The problem is not messaging. The problem is that people don't want to change their lifestyles. Imagine people believe that electric cars are the answer to replace regular cars. Consumption is the problem.
Yes ur right ....+population too
Nothing will happen in time. Short term profits will remain paramount. Let's face it: Our species is dumb.
Well done on the coral ❤️❤️
In 'Merica, we're still arguing whether or not it's real! The corporations that are responsible have too much influence over our politicians and our people. 🤠
It isn't real. There is NO evidence that ANY human activity has EVER influenced Earth's climate.
"many", not a very quantitative description.
There are dozens of us. Dozens!
I have just one thing to ask: please, stop talking about climate change and start calling it for what it is, a climate crisis. People need to feel the urgency
Uninhabitable places are desirable to a select few who like freedom more than society. The lack of habitability is a desirable feature to defend against intrusion by authoritarians.
on more time, from the top: People who profit from climate change: 1. Know who they are. 2. Are rich from the profits of climate change. 3. Are less likely to be affected. examples: OPEC, the oligarchs of Russia, the people who build or make money from oil-derived infrastructure, and, last but not least, the people of Germany who don't want nuclear power because of a war that ended 3/4 of a century ago. all of them have reasons, many of those reasons are in the traditions or expectations of the developed world. this is why it is difficult the same way that nuclear war was difficult, total war was difficult, and the compressed globe was difficult. And yet we must do it. There is no other choice.
Right now, the bargaining phase: each person wants to keep doing the things that they know cause climate change but wants other people to change instead.
Spot on. And tragic.
I wasn’t aware of Germany’s stance against nuclear power; GREAT! I’m glad to hear that they are opposed to it! S happens, and it’s over for thousands of years. Using biological waste is more natural and far less dangerous. ( yes. Coal, diesel, and gasoline are biological).
@@Davidwasghostedbyutube As I said, you want climate change for the benefits it brings you. The City of Dis is over that hill.
@@Davidwasghostedbyutube "( yes. Coal, diesel, and gasoline are biological)"
and burning them is a major contributer to mercury and lead contamination of the environment and that during normal operation. On the other hand if a nuclear power plant goes the way like in Fukushima it will create a garanteed biotop since no human wants to live there for decades.
But I don't think we need nuclear. In germany nuclear power contributed only 10% to the electricity generation, the other sectors of energy usage aren't even included in that (mobility, heating, industrial use of primary energy sources).
Amazing that she quotes/cites Steve Jobs! Lmao. He was so kind to the planet.
Kudos to this Goan adoption initiative! Wish many other communities wud get involved. I live in Panamá & have experienced the results of climate change: many islands have been flooded by the sea already!
People don't watch the news anymore because it makes them sad. So many people aren't getting the message and seeing the destruction.
Try diversifying the news channels, get game development companies and "influencers" involved in the storytelling.
Unfortunately they usually won't do it for free, so there is always the bottom-line of money, even when survival of our species hangs in the balance.
To train one AI model it can produce as much as the carbon produced by three cars in their entire lifespans, so technology probably won't save us either.
Because it's natural!
We can't stop mother earth,
We???? Go talk to China or Russia or India or USA... They wont stop increasing CO2 emissions. Europe is actually reducing emissions.
Everybody can do something. Small steps are helping.
The EU and USA could easily be all nuclear now and make a huge impact on emissions… yet neither are. Most EU countries still have some coal in their energy mix today. It’s not as rosy as you might think. It’s a tragedy.
Ha ha. This would be the Europe where Germany trashed all it's nuclear generators and is now reverting to coal -- that Europe? USA is only major country with diminished CO2 and that was simply because of the switch to natural gas now available by fracking, not because of any green programs.
lol EU has only 1% of factory of China, how can you compare?!... 'We' means the world, we all need to co-operate to reducing emissions.
China is betting big on renewables. In 2023 China installed more renewables than the whole world in 2022.
As a European, I hope the west can and will keep up with the east. It's ecologically and economically important.
Military's are not required to report greenhouse gases pollution. US military is largest institutional emitter of greenhouse gases pollution in the world.
good background sea landscape. There is some idea to put on background images of beautiful places from the past. Marked them with year photo has made to remind/know us about beauty of nature. As image quality originally may not be good we could handle them a bit with AI to improve quality. Actually subject raised in this video is very important.
Where are the facts in this news? I think, I believe, if thinks do not change, it looks like this and that! How about just one fact!
As long as governments bend to the will of big corporations, they'll never do enough
Humanity needs to grow up. This is not solvable through invidual actions alone or with outsourcing responsibilities to said inviduals, we need collective action, but instead we get invidualistic rituals to clean our conscience. The profit drive needs to go, profit drive and sustainebility are mutually exclusive. If you extract only monetary value, that value is extracted from other values and if monetary value is the only value we can see, it's game over for us because everything else has been turned into money. This is not solvable with technology either, all the wonder tech some of us are waiting has failed so far or are too expensive resource wise. The salvation through technology mindset is a denial of reality, in hope of that we could continue business as usual.
Our priorities needs to change.
According to the Environmental and Energy Study Institute, humanity gets 80% of its daily energy from fossil fuels. The problem isn't climate change messaging, the problem is the massive global investment in the existing energy infrastructure and our utter dependence on this system. Most people can't really do anything significant to change their energy mix to renewables. We're in a Catch-22...
By volume, the dry air in Earth's atmosphere is about 78.08 percent nitrogen, 20.95 percent oxygen, and 0.93 percent argon, adding up to 99.96 percent. A brew of trace gases accounts for the other approximately 0.04 percent, including the greenhouse gases carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide and ozone. To think that a small increase (200 parts per million in the last hundred years) of carbon dioxide would affect the weather is absurd.
Meanwhile U.S. Field Production of Crude Oil has literally never been higher
Continue to grow more plants, Continue to keep clean and recycle ♻️ we need to see more climate issues worked on as a collective whole
Indeed 🌲🌳🌴 👍😎
Because most populations are already at the poverty level and they cant pay for the costs of climate 'cleansing' .... billionaires+, are also too attached to their zeros ... that's why...
You know nothing will change when 90% or more don't believe it is as critical as it is. I saw the Oscar's and listened as everybody spoke about the future like there will be one.
We fall into 3 categories...the very poor who don't have money to do anything but survive, those that don't believe it's real or as dire, and those that aren't willing to make the necessary sacrifices needed globally. There are a few more but they don't total up enough.
Anyone remember ‘the population bomb’? Only the west took it seriously.
The reality is the Earths weather env is a _closed_ system. As we have polluted and pumped all sorts of things into it (not just co2) we keep thinking that the env has a linear relationship between how much we pollute and how broken it is. This is _not_ the case, closed loop systems deteriorate at an _exponential_ rate. This means we are _well_ past the inflection point, and the rate of destruction will be much faster than expected. The severe problems are not _30_ or _50_ years away.. they are less than a decade away.
Because is "not summer yet" 😂😂😂

Doesn't planned obsolescence mean unnecessary manufacturing which has to produce extra CO2? When have you heard a climate scientist point that out?
Doesn't planned obsolescence mean more depreciation on the Demand Side of the economy? Ask an economist about the annual depreciation of automobiles since Sputnik. There were only 200,000,000 motor vehicles in the US in 1994. How many belonged to consumers and did not have depreciation filed with the IRS?
Reality is too complicated for PhDs!
technology advancement will solve this problem. to young people who want to make a difference in climate change study like the world depends on it.
I lived in what many people consider uninhabitable. because of extreme heat in summer, Phoenix Arizona. About 7 million love the place that is supposedly uninhabitable including me. I have never read in history books that it was 72 in summer.
And?
If you start to accept the doom of our civ, you'll get out of anger and can start to prepare yourself and your surrounding. Start a farm! Grow your own food. Go into nature and enjoy and save as much of it as you can. Try to talk to others, but politely. The old generation (over 60) is lost, they won't change and listen. Don't waste time. Think in small steps. Find people who think same, build communities. Help each other.
It isn't only people over 60 following the right-wing denialists, and it is a dangerous myth to pretend that is the case.

If 99% of scientists say fossil fuel contribute to global warming, is it a good idea to elect a President who says, Drill Baby Drill? I suppose when hail gets the size of basketball they might take it seriously 😅
Stock prices and exchange rates won't matter much once harvests fail to an extent that exports cease and mass starvation begins. Humanity can only store food to last like 74 days. What happens if the world gets so hot that all crops fail at once? Upper estimates in the "business as usual" scenarios give up to 8.5ºC warming, something that would be beyond catastrophic, no food can be produced at these temperatures. Oceans become anoxic and only nasty bacteria thrives in this new environment. Permian Extinction-like conditions.
Okay, so, in looking at the world, India is both at high risk for damage from the projected change in the climate and is one of the areas that is changing its behavior to most advance this crisis. Probe its considerations on it is doing this apparently self defeating actions. Then you might get an idea why "we" don't act faster.
"Why isn't climate change being combated faster?"
Greed.
Why aren't we fighting climate change faster? - Well, because it would decrease profits, obviously!
It’s incredibly heartwarming that so many young people are pushing for change more than my (35yo) generation did. It’s just a fact however that the generations that have kept their blinds on run everything and prioritize upholding capitalism and the mechanisms that as a result will move in the wrong direction or glacially slowly in the right one. Bad phrasing on my part tho, these days glaciers are speedy as fuvk and they’re all going to be gone REALLY SOON…
Because we got a bunch of dictators in countries like Russia, China and Iran, who would rather rule over desert than care for people or earth. They are a priority threat 😔

Welcome to the oligarchy
For anything to change, there has to be money made for the rich. It has to be done with the littlest amount of work to make the change. Big change takes a lot of time and money. Businesses don't have time for that. If there is more profit made by not doing anything and just let the world burn, that's how it will be.
Maybe, gratification of instant needs trumps long term existential interests combined with profits over planet and people.
I honestly think we don't care. Most of us seem to be taking risks rather than doing something about the future.
All telescopes, which are used to search for intelligent life, point away from this planet.
We are coming out of a mini ice age... things are gonna get warmer. We cant KEEP the world in an artificially cooler state just because we THINK that is preferable. Change is natural: adapt
We are already in an ice age called the Quaternary Period because there is pack ice in both polar regions year round. We're in an interglacial period called the Holocene Epoch, but it's still an ice age. Solar irradiation and the Milankovitch cycles are both in cooling phases. Milankovitch Cycles are in a cooling phase and will be for hundreds of years to come, but instead we see AGW.
@@rps1689 Thank you for the same comments. These science aliterates are loud and annoying.
@@scottekoontz My pleasure.
Its so funny that we as society still dont get it that society is... A SYSTEM!
To make systemical changes you need to operate on a system level.
To ask individuals to do something is NOT a system level and "messaging" is not acting.
You have to change our system in some parts. And guess what... we dont do it.
Our society is vastly economized. Our economy is deeply decentralized and every "unit" (=corporation) is ought to create growth so the GDP is growing. This is done by exploitation on all levels (exploit environment, ressources, human beings, society, politics, etc - economical leaders btw. also exploit themselves).
If GDP is not growing our societies become more instable than they already are. Which you can see in many areas where GDP is not growing.
Our econmical "scientists" dont research about this system but create ideological BS to maintain the system. So instead of having 150 years of research of enhancing and changing our system we have... nothing.
And all media does not adress this. Not sure why - maybe you highly paid and highly educated academics really dont get it that our economics arent really science at all. Maybe you just dont care. I dont know.
But... we will not change our system. And therefor... we will go on with exploiting our world cause our economy is just constructed in that way. You can shift the exploitation a little bit. But in the end... we will destroy our environment and our own society cause extreme exploitation cannot be balanced.

Think global, act local.
We are not fighting it faster due to the influence of oil majors. We have investors in fossil fuels, with trillions of dollars at stake. Their fortunes depend on the continuing expectation that they will be able to sell through the known reserves. Every month they can delay rational public policy toward waste CO2 is worth billions. The half a billion or so they spend each year on "conservative think tanks" and related lobbying and public relations projects to undermine public confidence in science is a good investment.
There is a reason why the CCCM movement exists - to employ PR flacks and advertising professionals, pollsters, lobbyists, and a few retirees from science who disagree with some aspect of conventional climate science in order to to undermine public confidence in science. Most of the money that funds this movement is from "old money" family foundations that primarily support right wing causes. About 1/3 of it is anonymized through a money laundering service called Donors.

Where are these "raising" oceans water levels? The last I heard, oceans are raising at 2cm every 33 years. At that rate the ocean level will be 6cm in 100 years. I do not know of anyone that lives at sea level, let alone 6cm or less. What do you think why people would care about 6cm?
1. You're assuming the rate is constant. It is accelerating.
2. Your rate isn't accurate. Sea levels have risen 4in in the last 30 years. 4in does not sound like much until you realize that sea levels have risen 8-9in since 1890, but almost half of that was since 1990.
3. At current rates, that's another foot in the next 30 years. It will continue to accelerate.
4. Miami is currently 6 ft above sea level. It will be submerged next century.
5. Sea level rise is the least of our concerns. Desertification is far worse. Dwindling water supplies and loss of fertile land leads to famine, mass migration, disease, and war.

Because the Earth is a closed system that means our species will do what all living creatures do and use up our resources until they are gone. Bacteria in a Petri Dish is an example of a clsoed system. Bacteria first adapt to their dish (LAG PHASE) then increase exponentially (LOG PHASE) then stay steady for a while (STATIONARY PHASE) then die when the nutrient is all consumed and there is nothing left but waste material THE DEATH PHASE......but if the WASTE is used as a RESOURCE then the STATIONARY PHASE can be maintained for millions of years (example: AMAZON FOREST)
LAG PHASE 10,000 BC to 1800
LOG PHASE 1800 to 2020
STATIONARY PHASE 2020 - ????
DEATH PHASE ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
Many parts of the world also go from Uninhabitable to Habitable because of climate change , Maybe do some research which countries profit from climate change and then ask this question again . ( mopping with the tap open )
Until the rich and powerful figure out how to stay in charge they won't change.

because we have lost
It’s not only political organisations and industry that are responsible but individuals too. We are individually responsible for our lifestyle choices. I hear many people who say they cannot afford electric cars when they are happy to spend enormous sums on Range Rovers and other combustion SUVs. In the UK, the take-up on solar panels and heat pumps remains abysmally low despite heavy government subsidy and zero vat. People still have gas and oil boilers fitted and less than 4% of homes have moved to solar (and battery storage). The majority of people are largely unconcerned about their emissions and will drive or fly without any sense of moderation nor give any thought to their contribution to global heating. Moving to a plant based diet or cutting down on meat and dairy consumptions is the simplest of choices and can be the decision of a moment, something you can do immediately and enormously reduce your impact. It is encouraging that an increasing percentage of younger people especially are doing this
Earth is fine with or without us.
Only Russia seems to be happy about global warming.
There have been many periods when the Earth was warmer than now and civilization flourished. The cold periods were characterized by famines and the collapse of civilization. During the Roman Warm Period, citrus trees grew near Hadrian's wall and vineyards grew hundreds of miles further north than they do now. During the Medieval Warm Period the Vikings grew cereal crops on farms that are now under permafrost in Greenland. These were global events which are confirmed by ice cores from Greenland and the Vostok core in Antarctica as well as lake sediments from around the world.
How dare you speak with logic and knowledge, this is not the forum for intelligence. Just let them tell you what to think.
So was the Roman warm period a global or a regional event?
Please can you tell when GLOBAL temperatures are as warm as they are now since we developed agriculture?
Climate has always changed - that is not the complete story or situation. You forgot to mention many facts about such times - during times of climate change there were famines and droughts and many people died. There were mass migrations of peoples. Where there 8 billion on earth at the time? Did they have the indulgent lifestyle that we now have? Did those billions live in marginal areas that are prone to drought and flooding? These are some of the considerations that are relevant to our modern world that may not have been as relevant in the past......
Apesar dos muitos alertas de que isso aconteceria a mudança climática chegou para ficar e daqui para frente só vai piorar.... enquanto isso caminhamos para o abismo......os pobres vão morrer primeiro e os 1%mais ricos vão se mandar do planeta......

Climate The Movie
How habitable are places with - 30 in the winter. Should those places get higher heating prices so places with +30 would have global warming fears satisfied?
Very few people live in places that are -30 in the winter. Far fewer than places which are +30 in the summer. Are you volunteering to pay for the transportation, housing, and food for the billion-odd people whose homes may soon be heat death traps?
@@davidblair9877 you do not die in +30. You do die in - 30. Are you saying that people living in - 30 should just die or migrate?
You can not grow food in - 30. There are more people in places with +30 because historically they did not die due to temperature or hunger caused by temperature.
Let's rapidly build our renewably powered global economy so we can phase out fossil fuels which is causing climate change.
What an oddly off-target video. Saying extreme events are likely when deadly wildfires, crop failure, famine, farm and fishery collapses are multiplied by these almost pleasant euphemisms seems ludicrous.
Asserting that it's failure to communicate the seriousness when government regulators who well know these impacts are coming have disconnected their financing, licensing and permitting of fossil trade from these consequences in their minds, so feel no pangs of conscience, no cognitive dissonance, no guilt for bringing about these disasters and deaths seems too circumloquacious.
Be direct. Government policy that does not throttle the life out of the fossil trade today throttles the life out of the food trade tomorrow.
