Air and water pollution kills far more people everyday than a warming climate, yet it barely rates a mention, even among climate activists. Why is that?
I have one question , what's the real earth temperature right now. It seems nobody wants to tell the truth rather just lying oh its just 1.1 right now when back in 2015 it was already 1.1
Obama started "climate pollution " demonizing CO2 which is a misrepresentation and scientifically wrong. The EPA, by changing the designation of CO2 to a pollutant is to perpetuate the goal of eliminating fossil fuels by convincing the public to turn against cheap, plentiful and reliable energy making it easier to regulate.

Thank you for all your summaries on 6AR, Miriam and Adam - such an essential public service you are providing 🙏
I grew up with bottles made from glass. They had a value in money so whenever someone was using what was packed inside that bottle, they took the bottle to the store and got money in return. This way, the industry didn't have to make more bottles so less carbon emissions. Making batteries for a laptop in a million shapes and sizes is also not helping to reduce carbon emissions and pollution.
Of course, plastic bottles are easy for companies because the idiot who buys whatever it is packed inside those bottles is paying for the bottle but gets nothing back, the bottle is becoming landfill garbage and the said company needs new bottles.
How this glass bottle was working? If you had a bottle to give back you were paying only the cost of what's packed inside the bottle. If you didn't have a bottle, you were paying for whatever it was packed in that bottle and 3 times the price of the bottle.
Sounds unfair?
How many bottles you paid your entire life only to throw them to the garbage bin, how much money were you throwing away by doing this?
The whole family, we had probably 30 bottles at all times in our house. (20 beer bottles, 4 oil bottles, 2 milk bottles and the rest were common bottles used for various things).
We had glass jars too and we were used to walk. Only drivers were driving cars. Driving your own car was seen as being a slave of your own doing. To go to a holiday with your family and to be forced to drive it was considered the stupidest thing someone was doing because while the rest of the family was starting the holiday, the driver was forced to drive.
Now people are brainwashed to believe something that's not true. It's the same mechanism like a smoker thinks that smoking calms the smoker down.
Driving is tiring and it most definitely is not holiday.
It's not scientists that are the problem... It's not the public that is the problem. It's the economy that is the problem. Or more directly it's the people who benefit most from the economies around the world that are the problem.
The main source of inefficiency in our systems is the competitive drive for profit.
That's the problem.
Until we address that we are fooling ourselves.
Most of the damage to the climate has been done since 2000.
{shrugs}
The damage is continuing to accelerate... not slow down. We can claim small successes... but that is just an attempt at inspiring more change. So far, we've worked really hard and still our economies are accelerating the damage being done.
We need cooperation... not competition, and the financial drive to damage the climate and exploit the planet in order to gain a competitive or wealth advantage is much stronger than the desire to limit these behaviors.
At least among the people who set policy and lead the world's institutions.
{points at policy makers and the wealthy}
They are the problem.
Surprise!

Preach.
So you reckon the Chinese should stay poor? China outputs more CO2 than the rest of the world combined.
Or do see prosperity as some kind of sin that must be atoned for by imposing austerity on the countries that raised the world out of poverty?
@@workdevice7808 Seems doubtful, that China will "stay poor". On the other hand, I wasn't talking about any particular country. I was talking about our systems and how they behave.
People seem to think there is some fundamental difference between the West and China. There isn't. All use authoritarian systems.
The conflict is personal between the people who make policy and own. The vast majority of the people in the world just want to get on with their lives.
It's hard to find a post that has so much misinformation as yours.
"The main source of inefficiency in our systems is the competitive drive for profit."
- Factually wrong. When your money is on the line, you will look at everything that can reduce costs, waste, time etc. If you don't as a company, your competitors will and you are left behind. Competition drives efficiency. Where you will find inefficiencies is on the governmental level because they don't care how much resources they spend to do x because it's not their own money.
"Most of the damage to the climate has been done since 2000."
- show me one. Just ONE reputable study that says that "humans are the main driver of climate change". There is none
"The damage is continuing to accelerate... not slow down. We can claim small successes... but that is just an attempt at inspiring more change. So far, we've worked really hard and still our economies are accelerating the damage being done."
- The "feedback runaway loop" for climate change was never proven and makes no sense whatsoever for a climate system as ours.

Which is already starting. The water wars are starting, and things look dire.
I don't have hope for our global economy making the necessary changes, because everything points to the fact that we have to reduce our global output, physically, of goods. This runs completely counter to how the economy functions on a basic level, where infinite growth is required for the economy to remain stable.
We are in a right pickle.
So the summary, is a statement agreed by politicians. I can’t see anything wrong with that, I mean look at how Covid demonstrated the sophistication of politicians around the world in their understanding of both science generally and the use of models in particular.

So hang on, you said all scenarios that can limit warming to 1,5° include peaking greenhouse gas emissions by 2025. Does that mean currently emissions are still rising?
Because at 01:27 you say "we're still putting more greenhouse gases in the atmosphere" and then climate adam says at 02:42 that "policies have led to several billion tonnes of avoided emissions per year"
Am I understanding this correctly that:
- We have not emitted as much as we could have emitted
- But we're still emitting more every year in comparison to the years before
-> So emissions are still rising, even though thanks to policies, a little bit slower. (?) Correct? :)
yup, you're correct
I always appreciate how clearly you explain these reports - thing arent great, for sure, but it's always good to know how much we can still accomplish if we build the political will.
It's building the political will that is impossible. There is almost 0 chance that we will limit warming to 2°C of warming by the end of the century, and most likely, we'll do 2.5 at best, realistically doing 3.2.
Nothing is going to be accomplished. This is a requiem written in advance. I wish it wasn't true and used to have hope in technology. The reality is just bleak.
Too many people call this doomerism. It is realism. Accepting our fate doesn't make things worse. You stop being distracted and focus on what you can do around you for you and your family and that is all we can do anymore.

I am thankful to people like you who have the ability and interest and then take the time to read, understand and summarize the summary for the rest of us who care about the environment but really don’t know what to do about it. I’m 75. I’ve been hearing about global warming and engaging in little recycling projects for at least 50 years. I believe that industrialization got us into this mess and more advanced technologies can and with social cooperation can get us out of it. I’m pleased that Adam indicated that some progress has been made. I think that the way that policies and technologies that protect our environment will be accepted and implemented will depend upon their ability to appeal to and facilitate our selfishness instincts. Food, clothing, shelter communication and transportation are what everybody wants and needs. To get these things we have exploited and destroyed our environment. So how can we exploit without destroying? Make it profitable. I just bought my first electric car. I love it and I hope it benefits the environment but first, I love it. I know that lithium ion batteries are not environmentally friendly so mining is a trade off from drilling but hopefully newer battery technologies ie. Sodium ion batteries will be less harmful. I think I can feel that your generation appears to be buying into Green Energy and the supporting technologies and I hope that you can and will make sustainability cool and turn this earth ship around before it’s too late. Great work and Thank You!
thanks for watching and leaving such a thoughtful comment. glad to have you among us :)
@@zentouro Thank you for doing all the work!
you've been hearing about global warming for 50 years? Well, no, because 30 years ago they threatened to cool down.
You've been writing about global warming for 50 years, which is 1 degree Celsius. Does this 1st degree bother you? Then why don't you go to Siberia? Humanity thrives when it's warm. At least 5 degrees are still missing from the ancient or medieval optimum. Who raised the temperature then? Who lowered it? There was no industry.
Thanks for the great summary. What did the report say about the societal cost-benefit analysis of the proposed massive reduction in available energy vs the warming mitigation costs? Especially the cost to the world's developing countries and the poor.
Love this collab and especially appreciate the piece on non climate benefits of climate action!! Great work 🎉

I dont see the downside to the warm period we find ourselves in. Increased food production is a bonus , greening of the world ( plants love Co2) less people dying from exposure to the fridgid . Historically we are a very cold planet that warms briefly and then cools then warms then cools etc etc etc . Enjoy this well we have it!😊
They lack of conversation about animal agriculture is so frustrating.
100%, most of it can be avoided if we promote veganism..
What if the IPCC refers to the feedbacks and tipping points on Earth System? How about we talk about PAST emissions (which will stay with us for a loooooong time)? When you keep those in mind, it´s already a matter of faith to believe we will mitigate merely with technology and more solar panels the most serious effects on human civilization: food-chain supply interruption, growing unhabitability of vasts amounts of land, fresh water scarcity, more natural disasters, like droughts and wildfires; economic, social and political chaos, war risks, existential threat (all of those has been openly discussed in recent years)... of course, we need to do things, but not with the intention of *fixing*. Earth system is already set towards (likely) what has been called Hothouse-Earth, and that will follow us as a punishment for our own self-importance and arrogance. Why? because our economic system pushes us towards endless expansion and endless exploitation of biosphere and other fellow human beings. Capitalism is a nihilistic system that guides us towards self destruction.
And no mention of the Nuclear death cloud circling the earth from the bomb testing and numerous nuclear accidents of the last few decades.

A great summary of the summary of the summary of the summary. Thanks, as always, for your excellent and informative videos! :)
The "incremental change" part is very relevant, because mostly when talking about climate change, there are wild claims about doomsday scenarios and the point of no return. Realistically, we know that the economy will vehemently refuse to reduce emissions, so talking about a point of no return practically translates to: "It doesn't matter what we do, we can't stop it anyway. So we should continue emissions as always and instead focus on preventing the consequences of climate change rather than pointlessly fight the cause"
"Incremental change" on the other hand means that every reduction, no many how tiny, will make some difference and fighting the cause is still worth it. If you really want to stop climate change, this point should be hammered home rather than talking about doomsday scenarios.
Very informative and good length, thanks. What software are you using for your text transitions etc?

I will add what I've added elsewhere.
Waiting for governments isn't a winning scenario.
consumerism got us into this mess, and believe it or not, consumerism can get us out.
To that end everyone can do something.
Myself I bought an EV, which is one of the more expensive things we can do.
Others have put solar panels up
There's also heat pumps (3 different kinds no less)
Even if you can't do any of those things, you can:
drive a gasoline car less (you'll create less pollution, and save gas money)
You could also cut down on meat consumption.
There's lots of things we can do and this isn't the end of the list.
If several billion people (not even 1/2 of everyone) were to do just ONE of the things I've listed, or
which they can come up with themselves, we would all notice the difference.
Governments and industries would be stunned.

For the last 30 days most of the daily CO2 readings at Mauna Loa have sat at or above 424 ppm with several close to 425 ppm. There's also been several dismal year to year increase figures posted. So it seems that all the positive changes that have been made are having no effect on the CO2 levels. Could it be feedback loops are the reason?
Stop breathing. You may be that additional millionth. Tell me, where (or what) is the "dismal" of which you speak? So simple minded...
It is so unrealistic at this point to aim for 1.5 degree C increase in global temperatures. They need to shift the target to under 2. We are still emitting co2 at increasing rate as of now, how is it possible to cut it by half by 2030?
It’s possible but only if we had a global revolution in the next handful of years.
Thank you! Your talk gives me hope.
So yea cheap does not mean good, because solar panels and windmills also require resources and we are currently still using fossil fuels to extract said resources.
We are still amplifying the problem while we talk about costs, the cost is pretty obvious it is our planet at stake not some imaginary number on a bank account.

Is there a way to find the full 6000 page reports from the beginning in 1988 and every 4 years after? And every report saved on the day it was available. To check for text changes? To make a check for retro adaptations that are made in the now legacy available old versions. Check sneaking data from the policy maker report to the synthetic report 4 years later.
You can find them all on the IPCC website. I'm not sure about the exact date of publication (often there is a delay from the initial release to the fully formatted release). But I haven't seen any 'sneaky' changes. You can compare the versions in the drafting process that are sent out for comment (and all the comments) to the final publication to see how things evolve.
Thank you for the summary. I have my doubts about how effective we are going to be at actually stopping emissions growth and cutting them by 40% even by 2040s, let alone 2030. Even the 2020 COVID-19 shutdowns cut the emissions by a whopping 4% and that was with entire economies coming to a halt.
In Australia the penalties for protesting the climate emergency are being increased. The courts hold the view that "On the day of the protest, there was no specific emergency"

That the prices of solar and wind are plummeting, does have a shadow-side which shouldn't be ignored. Mines with rare earth materials in the DRC and China have horrible labor conditions and cause a lot of local environmental degradation. We should keep costs low (because unfortunately in capitalism it's all about the bottom line) but we shouldn't allow for these conditions either.
It's all squarely at the foot of the capitalist question. And the way countless of men rush to its defense and call climate change a hoax is embarrassing as a species.

The problem is capitalism, correct.

Great video, thanks to both of you!
Thank you for the summary of all summaries! Just great!🥰
Thanks for stickin in the communication struggle, will share.
At this point, we’re fighting for the worsening conditions of the climate to be less of an existential threat. I think the fact that we’ve lost this initial fight to sustain the livability of the previous century should be a deep warning signal that our tactics need revision, especially given that industry is more concentrated and powerful than it was in the 1980s when mitigation was first attempted and stamped out.
Deeply concerned that we’ll be here, 10, 20 years down the road looking at even more windows of opportunity closing. Despite technical advancements, we lack the parallel organizational and social power advancements to make that tech responsive and deployed for collective benefit.
We urgently need to grow massive movements.
Good job! Thank you
What's cheap about mass producing solar and wind? The mining alone has a hugely unsustainable and unrealistic environmental impact. We do need to move to renewables with urgency BUT we also need to massively draw down our energy requirements. We (humanity) cannot simply continue to grow with current or foreseeable technologies. As such, any approach that does not also tackle our collective fantasy of unlimited population and economic growth will fail miserably (and it is currently failing).
Not to mention the unrecyclable batteries poisoning the landscape!
@@richardscathouse - Very much so, yep
Great summary of the summary of the summary!
Thank you for the quick summary
The harder the message the less it sinks in.
Thank you for this! But unfortunately, as a climate researcher myself, I can't help but agree to the fact that there is no force greater than money or greed. Of course some things need to improve, but we do have more than enough evidence and more than enough solutions. But still, there's no action from the big emitters. Unfortunately, there's no salvation of the environment under capitalism. Even though renewables are super cheap right now, oil companies simply won't shift because renewables are not *as profitable* as fossil fuels 😓 and governments in general end up in the hands of these types of big companies. We need to redesign our economy, otherwise simply arguing for the saving of the human race won't be enough. As crazy as it sounds, the economic elite prefers to destroy our civilization than decrease their profits a little bit...

There not, all of the economies of this planet run on over consumption and fossil fuels are the only way to keep that going. Nothing is going to change until it's way too late.
the biggest issue is the lack of anarchy in government. If we prioritize our communities over that of a wannabe leaders, then we'd leave many bureaucracies and corruption/misspending behind. Authority is abused by the nature of authority.

AND…………….we continue to spew astronomical quantities of hot air about the whole issue while we, wait for it………………….DO ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Damn that was good. Really concise.
Helpful vid, thank you
Too long, didn't finish. You mean well, but there is a reason that, for example, RUclips limits "Shorts" to one minute or so. Also, you draw in the usual deniers (like any channel that covers climate) and by now I think it is clear that the politics of addressing climate change are not won or lost by IPCC reports. Money makes the world go 'round, and until combating climate change is believed by enough people to be profitable there will not be the deep changes that are needed.
there's also a reason this isn't a short! go watch something else if this is too long winded for you.
If anybody is wondering what are the best solutions I recommend the Drawdown Project, it's really comprehensive in covering what actions can make the biggest difference.
Summarising the IPCC report in two words..."We're Pharkt"
IMO we need an attitude change. Instead of wanting our "right" to travel, engage in high powered and/or high consumption entertainment, concentrate on what we need to be healthy and comfortable. Food, water, shelter. Anything beyond those pursuits are up for changing or eliminating.
What a horrible horrible suggestion.
You think neofeudalism is the answer join the Amish. Please try
Agreed, 100%. People need to give up all these pathetic luxuries and enjoy life minimally.
@@rig4365 What a great argument.
Coward.
Great content, and to the point!
Nice nice!!
Luv your trying, but I'm just wondering when you will acknowledge We Are So Fukked (WASF). And no it doesn't mean you don't stop trying, but acceptance is part of the grieving process, and selling hope is what con artists do. All the best from Oz.
WASF. 100%.
i'm not selling hope, i'm presenting what the IPCC report says. and what it says is there are opportunities to reduce emissions and mitigate many of the worst case scenarios. this we're screwed nonsense doesn't help anyone or anything, in fact it implies that there isn't anything to do. 1.1 degrees is worse than no warming, but it is a lot better than 1.5 which is way better than 2 and beyond. So no we're not screwed and trying to get people to say we are is a a waste of all of our precious time.
I live on a boat and make my own electricity using solar & wind energy.
It's easy.
I would love to say. I was hopeful. but With the fossil fuel projects that are currently planned for production over the next 2 decades and the fact we are back in the cycle of denialism and paid disinformation campaigns. by the fossil fuel industry. I don't see us holding the temperature below 3 degrees
👏 Thank you for this!
Any time!
It would have been more concise to just say, "We're toast, folks."
we’re not

Humans don’t change. They are a virus and destroy everything in their path.
Thanks for your work
Lets wonder for a moment: how are we going to replace the 70% of global power provided by fossil fuels??
So, society (and its legal and economic model) at large has failed us...
Correct. Capitalism, including the state is the problem and always will be. It must be abolished in favour of a system that serves those that make it up, a mutualist system rather than a parasitic one.
Considering recent progress, hopefully we've reached or are near a tipping point for climate action. Especially considering the effects have gotten even worse (California right now, Pakistan with the floods, Somalia with the drought, etc)
長期に渡るこの会議も技術的に限界でありお手上げ状態が実情であり無駄な会議は中止すべきであり、即気候や地球環境問題を解消することができる史上初の"Soyama turbine"採用の緊急会議を開催されることが重要である。それは自動車等の内燃機関や火力発電所の排気をアイドリングから吸収相殺消音無臭化し一変に綺麗な空気で静かで本来の地球に甦らせることができ世界を一変させる世紀の大発明である。

The problem with the economic argument for climate action is that it considers the economy as a whole when in reality groups within the economy work against eachother and this competition is perceived as normal and non-negotiable or just not understood by the majority of people in what its consequences are.
Nothing will change as long as capitalism rules the world
That’s why we need to get to work to destroy it. Some revolutions have already been successful in the present.
Bingo. Capitalism just calls for endless growth and expansion.
The human ego can never be satisfied.
in honesty, its kind of hard to respect a summary which mentions solar panels and food waste, but not plane travel or military emissions. the root issues of the climate crisis are caused by globalized infrastructural organization and capitalist management-- not personal responsibility. Perpetuating that narrative is like championing a plastic straw ban while knowing a single (USA) crosscountry flight creates emissions equal to 400,000+ straws. If governments are serious about climate change, the bare minimum first step is to switch to remote virtual governance sessions instead of flying back and forth to the capital. not only would this decrease CO2 emissions and function as a symbol to the citizens of imperialist nations of the types of changes necessary, it would add more accountability and minimize the opportunity for the backdoor gladhanding and capitalist lobbyist access. but restricting these alternate narratives and ideas of what needs to change is exactly why countries insist on their need to "sign off" on scientist data. it's frustrating how average citizens dont understand that the IPCC report is actually one of the most conservatively worded scientific consensus reports that gets published😞
you’re correct about the military, that has been and continues to be a huge gap in the discussion of industrialized, particularly the US, emssions. But i’d argue emissions from airline flights are just as much the category of personal as solar and food waste. I also think this is a pretty disingenuous reading, because the report and adam and myself are talking about electricity generation and food waste at scale, not individuals choices. And of all of those, airline emissions are the smallest proportion.
i also don’t see how not flying to international policy meetings would minimize ‘backdoor gladhanding and capitalist lobbyist access’ because a. those folks have no problem interacting with our representatives at home and b. that means the governments that still do go to these events (which are critical for countries to get their voices heard on the international scale ~ we wouldn’t have the 1.5ºC special report otherwise) will be inundated by the lobbyists who are still going to such events.
How can you be so optimistic?
the opposite isn't tenable for actually getting any work done, and i/we need to get a lot of work done
@@zentouro No, we need to disappear.
Humans have done enough to prove they don’t deserve this planet.
Because they don't understand the massive depth of corruption global capitalism has created on this planet.
Yea, this climate change stuff makes energy so cheap my heating and electric bills are only 5 times what they used to be.
Yes, energy from coal and gas has gone way up. Not the 5x you mention, but certainly they are gouging.
Congratulations on great follow up guys! Hope we can hear more from you soon!
I watched the panel presenting the Sixth Assessment Report Summary. Urgent action is necessary by all sectors of society, but the idea that global warming will be reversed, given the cascading tipping points already triggered, is not plausible. I will continue to do what I can as an individual to cut my carbon emissions, but I urge everyone to look at the tipping points already operating to realize that even with drastic actions, life on this planet is going to be a continuous environmental crisis for some time. IPCC reports at various times have stated that climate change is now rapid and irreversible, so how now can they suggest we will 'incrementally" overcome the life-crushing trends they outline. Action is the antidote to hope. Hope is not the antidote to inaction.
According to the lore as given. I can't win. Even thought I've retired from production switched to an EV and live a shut-in lifestyle consuming nearly anything. 🖕 IPCC nothing satisfies you. 😡👎
