  • As the human population continues to grow, so does our impact on the environment. In fact, recent research has shown that three-quarters of Earth’s land surface is under pressure from human activity. In this short film, spoken word artist Prince Ea makes a powerful case for protecting the planet and challenges the human race to create a sustainable future. Winner of the Film4Climate competition organized by the Connect4Climate Program of the World Bank (film4climate.net).

    I think this is the best poem I have EVER heard. I've tried to make poems like this, but I don't have the ability to make them so long and perfect, every rhyme a drum beat or a seed for a whole tree to thrive, then bloom and tell you: we need change.

    I've shown this video to my 6th grade classes, 4 class per year, for the past 3 years. Every time I get goosebumps. Every time I fight back tears when he says "the fourth second." I stand to the side and watch my students' eyes as they listen to him, process what he's saying and how powerfully he says it. Video ends. Silence. Students need a moment to gather their thoughts and prepare to discussion the meaning of the video, as well as what it means to them. The power of this video comes not from what is said, but HOW it is said.

      I believe in global warming, but I dont think it's created by humans, because temperature has always had it's ups and downs. I think we are too little to make a change to Earth's temperatures. Anyways like he said, we've been here for 3 seconds in 24 hours, don't you think that the earth hasn't been warmer or colder before then only now? There have been ice ages and hotter ages since the earth came to be. Did some other species, animal or alien create that too? Or perhaps that the Earth's distance to the sun moves from time to time? I Personally think it's a shame that we blame ourselves to global warming. It's called nature, and it does what it wants, with or without humans.

      This is my opinion and you don’t have to debunk it. Sure go ahead if you want. But, you must know that this is from my knowledge. And my knowledge is not really that good (since I’m only 12 years old).
      To start off with, what do you mean that you think global warming is not created by humans. Sure, it was not directly affected by humans’ actions but instead the consequences. What really caused global warming was the air pollution. From factories and burning gasoline (often burned by cars engines’ and trucks).
      That’s my opinion, and you can have your own opinion.

    • @rikleferink
      @rikleferink 5 лет назад +3

      @@JamesRival King _ G4merr3 I respect your opinion.
      But earth has always had higher and lower temperatures. When I think of it, does it actually seem possible that we have, people, have increased temperature in 100 years? (Around the time it started with all the co2 stuff and pollution) In 5.000.000.000 years there have been millions and millions major temperature differences, ice ages, and way warmer ages and I don't see why it would be any difference now that we only are such a tiny fragment of Earth's lifespand.
      I see it like this: The earth was already warming up when humans even invented cars and things that created pollution. Little did we know that the earth was warming already because of natural reasons. They saw the temperature rising, and we blamed ourself for it, while the pollution's is actually significantly small if you compare. This is just another natural temperature change in Earth's huge lifespand.
      I'm not trying to convince you or anything, but it's the way I see it. I respect your opinion aswell.

      So how did the dinosaurs have any impact on the climate that wiped them out??? So how is this any different for us, the earth has its seasons of warming up and cooling down and we are just along for the ride.
      The previous ice age had nothing to do with our technology and was well before the industrial revolution, the medieval warm period was before this time as well so was this our fault??? No!
      However thats not to say we don’t live symbiotically with this earth, it just means this warming up and cooling down is not entirely due to humans technology, there are far larger powers at play than we realise
