"Shell already knew in the 1970s that burning fossil fuels could lead to alarming climate change. The company did not use this information to increase sustainability, but focused instead on a non-sustainable profit model: coal."
the issue is they also knew something even worse that no one could do anything about anyway. Industrial Agriculture was destroying the global Rhizosphere, and it happens to be the singular most important part of the Carbon Cycle. The very foundation of all terrestrial life. Bigoilyboi knew that they were making things worse, but they also knew that without cheap and immediate energy, the worst would get here centuries faster than it would otherwise. We could go back to 99% coal and still solve the problem if the emphasis was placed where it actually needs to be placed. On Industrial Agriculture. Carbon-12 is foundation of ALL life. The reason all the Carbon-12 is staying in the atmosphere is because we took billions of hectares of land that used to support a complete carbon recycling ecosystem, dug it up, gassed it into the atmosphere, and poison any living thing that attempts to return to that land that isn't a harvested crop. We took thousands of gigatons of carbon-12, threw it into the atmosphere, and destroyed one of the largest possible CO2 scrubbers that can possibly exist. No human technology could scale so large to replace it in less than 2 centuries of perfect development and construction with zero supply interruptions or conflict of any kind. They knew that reality was inescapable too. The only difference is, common knowledge still hasn't caught up to Scientific reality 50 years ago. People it turns out, are about 72% pureBred fukpotato per 100,000 sampled. So the vast majority will do whatever the herd does. And the herd just wants to eat, sleep, fight, and fk. As long as you provide that to a large group of people you can convince them to do literally anything. Even destroy the planet and all life on it to make 12 old men more money than any verifiably wealthy ruler in all of human history.
Instead, they used the information to start a disinformation campaign to delay action on climate change that would reduce their profits. Every board member since then until now should be going to The Hague.
Here's the real question: who got paid more- Kari, the dude running the bot farms that make the "Shell is such a great place" comments, or whoever came out with "deep water energy" as a code word for oil?
Wow this new underwater energy technology is amazing! Who would have though that we can fix all the negative things about oil just by renaming it! Amazing.
When I thought I caught my father beating my mother, he told me "I'm educating her" and I suddenly felt better about it. For a moment, I thought the repeated face-punching was abuse, but I know better now. Thanks, Shell!
It's silly too because their scientists all know Industrial Agriculture is what broke the carbon cycle, not fossil fuel use. But there is opportunity in crisis. That's what it's really about. Creating a crisis you can solve is how you "put miles on dem hoes". Bigoilyboi is using the Iceberg Slim playbook to add miles to the general population's willingness to accept all life on earth dying before they accept a different lifestyle.
The concept of carbon neutral is a feel good con they run to trick idiots. If a production process facility produces 10 tons of carbon per year the facility can purchase 10 tons worth of carbon offset credits and be “carbon neutral”. Guess what else! Every plastic bottle you recycle is boated over to china in a shipping container on a giant diesel ship and your plastic bottles and everyone else’s are dumped in the ocean and the Chinese recycling company keeps your money. 😉
Kari deeply believes in -the environment and all that inhabit it. She would never compromise her moral and ethical obligations by accepting oil- money. And that's a fact.
"this is what happens when the company that literally squeezes the life out of the earth uses their insanely broken profits to show off some high level engineering. I'm Kari Byron and I'm selling out completely!!!"
I'm not angry, I'm just deeply, deeply disappointed in Kari Byron for doing this. She was one of my heroes growing up, she got me interested in science and engineering as a kid. Now she's doing this. I'm just... sad.

What i meant to say was: "I've worked with shell for [INSERT NUMBER HERE] and i can confirm that it was [INSERT COMPLIMENT HERE] And i can't believe people could be against it!
"In the 1980s, Shell scientists laid out two pathways for the planet: one where energy companies undertook a smooth transition to clean energy and one where fossil fuel demand continued to rise, creating 'more storms, more droughts, more deluges,'" he summarized. "Since the publication of that forecast, Shell has pushed at every turn to create more fossil fuel demand, creating exactly the devastating outcomes they predicted."
more like in one year, if they're super famous. Remember that one time, when Hertz rental placed an order with Tesla for 100K vehicles....and Elon Musk's personal net worth jumped by $36 billion in one day? Just a reminder that a recent study performed by Oxfam America states that the average, effective tax rate for billionaires in the United States is "8.2%". The only solution is France, 1793
How and why does Shell have half a million subscribers? Bots? Kari cashing in on mythbusters name for a giant oil company, can't imagine anything more grotesque. Even onlyfans is more dignified than this.

Grant would be so disappointed in this, as the rest of us are. This has to be one of the more depressing videos i've seen lately and I havn't made it past the thumbnail
Deeply, deeply disappointed in Ms. Byron. Up until this moment I was still under the misapprehension that she was an environmentalist. At the very least she talks a good game.
The MythBusters team have collectively been scientific/intellectual heroes for almost an entire generation. I loved science. Many of my childhood friends didn't really care about science in the classroom. Until people like Kari were making it entertaining on MythBusters. The team fostered something beautiful for an entire country. I'm sorry that Kari finds herself in a situation that she needs to do this. We ALL know better. Shell has covered up climate change for 50 years. Many oil companies are responsible for the direction our climate is heading. But Shell might be one of it not THE most responsible entity for it, because they potently misled our governments. They pacified efforts to move away from oil, because it was harmful to Shell. Millions of people are going to die in the next 50 years because of how unstable the world is becoming, and Shell's only cause to pivot from its actions are that it got CAUGHT. They're literally still holding the trick in their bag in case it becomes potent again in the future. I'm sorry to be ashamed of Kari Byron right now. But reaching people and engendering a love for the pursuit of knowledge in children across the country and beyond for years, and this? I'm dismayed in a way that cuts almost as deep as finding out Robin WIlliams took his own life.
I'm sure you had an idea as to how many "sell-out" comments you would receive for this, But I guarantee you weren't ready for how much actual disappointment you've caused. you were loved, now you're hated. that fast.
Oh wow, I totally agree, I hope it was enough money to not have to work... Then again there's alwasy fox news. Just think of the credibility she woudl give to all the cazy "OiL wArMiNg Is A lIbErAL Lie!" people.
As a worker in drilling and completion operations and reading comments under this video with regret I want to say hiw many either stupid or braineashed people or both are in this world........... Worhout oil amd gas your lives would be impossible. Remember one thing - if the humanity hadn't oil we should've created it.

"Shell already knew in the 1970s that burning fossil fuels could lead to alarming climate change. The company did not use this information to increase sustainability, but focused instead on a non-sustainable profit model: coal."
Oil companies have been lying about climate change for over 100 years.
Moreover they started the climate change denial movement.
the issue is they also knew something even worse that no one could do anything about anyway. Industrial Agriculture was destroying the global Rhizosphere, and it happens to be the singular most important part of the Carbon Cycle. The very foundation of all terrestrial life.

We could go back to 99% coal and still solve the problem if the emphasis was placed where it actually needs to be placed. On Industrial Agriculture. Carbon-12 is foundation of ALL life.
The reason all the Carbon-12 is staying in the atmosphere is because we took billions of hectares of land that used to support a complete carbon recycling ecosystem, dug it up, gassed it into the atmosphere, and poison any living thing that attempts to return to that land that isn't a harvested crop. We took thousands of gigatons of carbon-12, threw it into the atmosphere, and destroyed one of the largest possible CO2 scrubbers that can possibly exist. No human technology could scale so large to replace it in less than 2 centuries of perfect development and construction with zero supply interruptions or conflict of any kind.
They knew that reality was inescapable too. The only difference is, common knowledge still hasn't caught up to Scientific reality 50 years ago. People it turns out, are about 72% pureBred fukpotato per 100,000 sampled. So the vast majority will do whatever the herd does. And the herd just wants to eat, sleep, fight, and fk.

"Hi I'm Kari Byron and my endorsement can be purchased."
988 likes, 19,000 dislikes. How much did they pay you?!
Oil, it's called oil.
This is truly disgusting.
Looks like my respect for Kari is the final myth she's busted. Sad.
Kari really scraping the bottom of the (oil) barrel huh? I guess everyone experiences a fall from grace given enough time (and dirty money).
Deeply, deeply disappointed in Ms. Byron. Up until this moment I was still under the misapprehension that she was an environmentalist. At the very least she talks a good game.
The MythBusters team have collectively been scientific/intellectual heroes for almost an entire generation. I loved science. Many of my childhood friends didn't really care about science in the classroom. Until people like Kari were making it entertaining on MythBusters. The team fostered something beautiful for an entire country.
I'm sorry that Kari finds herself in a situation that she needs to do this. We ALL know better. Shell has covered up climate change for 50 years. Many oil companies are responsible for the direction our climate is heading. But Shell might be one of it not THE most responsible entity for it, because they potently misled our governments. They pacified efforts to move away from oil, because it was harmful to Shell. Millions of people are going to die in the next 50 years because of how unstable the world is becoming, and Shell's only cause to pivot from its actions are that it got CAUGHT. They're literally still holding the trick in their bag in case it becomes potent again in the future.
I'm sorry to be ashamed of Kari Byron right now. But reaching people and engendering a love for the pursuit of knowledge in children across the country and beyond for years, and this? I'm dismayed in a way that cuts almost as deep as finding out Robin WIlliams took his own life.
nobody ever NEEDS to shill for a big oil company. We all make choices. This one was likely for millions of dollars
If she needed money, she could have started her own version of Tested on YT.
I'm not mad, I'm just disappointed.
Cool, now I can say that my car is powered by "deep water energy" instead of gas👍
if you listen closely you can hear Grant turning in his grave.
I'm sure you had an idea as to how many "sell-out" comments you would receive for this, But I guarantee you weren't ready for how much actual disappointment you've caused.
you were loved, now you're hated. that fast.
Hopefully this one works better than Deepwater Horizon did, hey Kari?
Kari if you were this desperate for money opening an only fans would be 1000x more respectable and 100,000x morally superior.
Oh wow, I totally agree, I hope it was enough money to not have to work... Then again there's alwasy fox news. Just think of the credibility she woudl give to all the cazy "OiL wArMiNg Is A lIbErAL Lie!" people.
Oh great, another one of my favorite personalities becoming complicit in the collapse of our only environment.
How much did you pay her to do this? She a vegetarian and cares about our planet but maybe I was wrong.
So the oil that runs the farm equipment that gets your veggies to your table.... uh... what does that have to do with anything?
@@youtubasoarusand yet you participate in society! Curious!
@@youtubasoarusparticipation does not negate criticism you melon
This definitely isn't the drilling people wanted when they thought of her
You either die a hero or watch yourself become the villain. To bad I liked Kari as a host on mythbusters.
I'm Kari Byron, I wanted money in exchange for my morals! 🎉👍🙏
Kari, this is sad.
She's allowed to make money...
And she is allowed to sell out her name and reputation this way too, but does that really make more money in the long run?
@@Lonech Her videos and reputation are about showing technology..that's exactly what this video is about.
She'll be fine.
@@tylersmith7443 She'll be physically fine but her reputation is ruined.
@@tylersmith7443 You're allowed to eat your own waste also, you don't really have a point.
Is there a form somewhere I have to fill out before I can post fake supportive comments for cash, or has that job been completely taken over by bots?
sadly mostly bots. If you look at the accounts that are saying they love this poison they all have no activity until now.
As a worker in drilling and completion operations and reading comments under this video with regret I want to say hiw many either stupid or braineashed people or both are in this world........... Worhout oil amd gas your lives would be impossible.
Remember one thing - if the humanity hadn't oil we should've created it.
Come on Shell, give us a video where she says oil is carbon neutral
Shell invents the greatest petro material of the century - Transparent Astroturf
Let us die breathing our air - byron, Kari
WOW THIS IS GREAT PROPAGANDA WELL DONE SHELL AND KARI
How often did they mention oil? Like two times? No No its deep water energy.
For years I believed you loved the environment, but you've shown you love the same money our politicians love when they shill for the oil industry. Such a shame.
Congrats Kari on selling your dignity!
