Lost Futures: How greed is destroying our planet | Dying Earth: E1 | Featured Documentary

- Some of the 'prophets of doom' of the 60s whose warnings went unheeded assess the current environmental fragility.
The effects of climate change were already being felt as far back as the 1960s, but scientists who linked fossil fuels with climate change were labelled “prophets of doom”.
This episode traces the trajectory of climate change over the past 60 years and examines how and why - despite the stark warnings - we failed to halt the climate catastrophe we are currently experiencing, and why it appears politics and science are at odds when it comes to this issue.
Years of propaganda and greed from oil companies created a world where profit trumped the health of the planet, the consequences of which are now being felt today.
Lost Futures explores the effects of corporate greed. In Louisiana, we see firsthand how small coastal towns will succumb to the devastating effects of years of drilling from oil companies, and what this means for a generation which has had little to do with causing the devastation but is forced to live with its consequences.

"We'll go down in history as the first society that wouldn't save itself because it wasn't cost-effective" - Kurt Vonnegut.
A while back a super bright young man told the folks at the world economic forum that greed would destroy the planet. They, of course, never invited him back.
Who was it?
Who was that?
@@refigee8752 guy in the vid, watch it!
@@pluto9000 Rutger Bregman he actually talked about taxing the most wealthy in the world sin of all sins.
It's been known for more than 50 years that fertility rates go up with poverty, and more to zero in good, modern economies. I think much of the population growth of the modern age would not have happened if not for modern greed.
Understand it's not the Earth that will be wiped out, it's us.
Its all living things on earth that will be affected
@@jamess1442 Nature has infinite wisdom - the earth is well prepared for dealing with humans - the planet does not need you for it's survival.
I read the 6th extinction, and the author just published another book. You are indeed correct when you say it will be us who become extinct.
But God already has a new earth awaiting us❤
Very true, but we are causing some very nasty destruction as well.
It's beyond greed,it's outright stupidity and negligence...
Greed is stupid and negligent
Technology and new scientific discoveries outweigh the love for humanity. That's to say, the needs of the few outweigh the needs of the many.
@@Eric-ej3oy sad but true
it just pure capitalism.
Money wasn't one of our best ideas. All the other animals on the planet have managed quite well without it.
Money is the devil's greatest masterpiece.
So the devil is unique to human experience.
@@orionsshoe2424 He wants all life on earth to suffer - money does that.
@@paulsawczyc5019
Who?
Money is necessary for a modern society. Exponential growth of the GDP not. Money isnt the core idea of capitalism. The core idea is private corporation with the central goal of making as much profit as possible.
And the funny thing is that even regions where capitalism is not that huge, like in the arabic states, making as much profit still has become the most important issue.
Even the so called "communist" country China is pure capitalistic for several decades now. Which means exponential GROWTH.
To say that its fault of the money that our society is driven by this profit idea is just not quite accurate.
Money is necessary that capitalism does work. But its not the cause of our problems.
I am 71, living in the U.K. My professional background was education and I.T. The main observation I now have, thinking about my life journey, is that government is not our friend. It used to be that governments engaged with voters and policy emerged from those in public service. Government is no longer a public service vocation, but a private profit model. In the U.K an MPs salary in 2024 is a minimum of £84,000. Compare that to the average wage in the U.K, and it's plain to see the massive disconnect. Uncontrolled Capitalism exploits people and all other Earth resources to drive profit for a small number of greedy individuals, who control the levers of power. No turkeys voting for christmas here.
The wages thing I'm not sure about. I'm a bit younger than you 63 and similarly in FE education. The thing that has struck me recently is the utter ineptitude of the people in charge, I've never wanted to be a manager so have just taught, but have observed the types of people that go for managers jobs. Almost exclusively they're not up to it, they have no background in management and the only difference is - like Johnson and the majority of the current cabinet members is... they are willing to take a risk and stick their heads above the parapet. They don't care if they might get shot down or fail, they're risk takers. They don't care about the consequences - they just move on leaving chaos potentially in their wake. The MP's wages are a conundrum, you might look at from the point of view that more money might attract the right kind of calibre of candidate, but then they'll settle in and do anything and say anything to maintain their job/position. But you're right - the day most people bought into Thatcher's there is no such thing as society and started the sell of our assets, was the day when it started to tip in the favour of the mega-rich. My own feeling is there needs to be a collective agreement that the population needs to decrease and the resources that exist already need to be re-used and recycled, the notion of 'Growth' needs to be re-looked at re-thought. We need to expect to live simpler lives far more in harmony with the planet.
@@someblokecalleddave1check out Mark Fisher's "Capitalist Realism" - there's a fantastic chapter on FE bureaucracy
You are right. And Capitalism is the name of the Beast. We must invent a new system.
Tell that to those who want a socialist government to ensure everyone is treated equally. The elites will make sure they are more equal and above the rest who are all equal.
Population decrease is the last thing we need. We have plenty of resources for an expanding global population. This is a matter of not caring for each other like we should. We're confused as to whether the poor guy deserves to be poor or is he just not trying hard enough. That poor guy is left behind because the rest of us are inundated with the things it takes to make ends meet. I live in Louisiana. This documentary is melodramatic. This kid, with his "chronic anxiety disorder" is simply uneducated. Proper education is the key to a solid underlying foundation of any society. I have noticed, through my journey, how our society actively makes sure that the underprivileged remain uneducated. This is the biggest mistake we could possibly make.@someblokecalleddave1
We're making the planet uninhabitable for ourselves. The planet itself will be just fine long after we're gone
I miss the wild life already gone.The pollution dumped in our waterways and air.the greed of many has had spoiled our wonderful blue and white world.Peace
Yeah but at least the haters of the planet can try to scratch and trash it before we go.
The planet will be better off without us.
The planet will be fine, if you don't care about the animals and plants.
The fundamental measure of success in the world needs to change from profits to wellbeing.
Yes. ¡Exactly!
Exactly
Agree
Impossible until we don't put the financial system down. We need a revolution.
Socialism or Communism are taboo in most developed countries...
At 60 years old, I've seen greed destroy many friendships.
It is odd that we now almost all live far better lives than our parents did, but global warming is always someone else's fault
@@sandponics I'm fifty nine and about twenty years ago I realized that every generation solves a problem and creates two more unknowingly
Lived all my life with father the breadwinner and lived in dignity even having money to hire a help for my mother who was a home maker. Dont recall having homes decorated with artificial things or having our kitchens cluttered with utensils made of factory manufactured. Now I live in Australia and realize I live with clutter. CARS, Electronics, Homes filled with manufactured goods and streets cluttered with signages. The earth is groaning with the rubbish we need to survive. See the garden tools in just one home and multiply that x million, toys like yachts and aircrafts x millions, ginormous homes that are occupied with single divorcee but hospitals packed with sick people like sardines. Life is ruined by manufacturing
😂
See carol muffet and what he has to say about trying to denk climate change
Human overpopulation...
I really like how you think.
@charmaine8512 How have you contributed to the problem ? What changes have you made in your life to stop contributing to the problem ? What are you doing to help fix the problem ? What are you doing to help others ? What are you doing to change things , to make things better ? Complaining about the way things are and continuing to do the same things does absolutely nothing .
This is 100% spot on.
The greed of a very few destroying Earth for us all.
Earth will survive.
The greedy will not.
Exactly
BS who runs the earth now, what race
please
It’s sad because unity against these corrupt forces would crush them but everyone has mouths to feed so we tolerate it.
@@lilnarm_smoothblaze and thats why they keep us divided and afraid.
My mother told my brothers and I about what’s happening today back in 1977. She was no scientist or anything she just was very observant.
Yes. We knew in HS that something was changing. 10 years later even conservative RW voices were talking with concern. Mirrors the time before the fossil fuel industry started an ad campaign to destroy any effort. And now it's too late.
@@evadd2 yeah your right but I was in elementary school.
@@evadd2NOT TOO LATE !!
Congratulations, what a Visionary Mother
We all are scientist more or less.
Thank you so much for presenting this video. With this climate catastrophe, I can barely eat or sleep. My heart breaks. I'm not concerned about myself because I'm in my mid-sixties. What plays on my mind are the babies being born all over the world. They will live through the utter devastation that will come more quickly than most people believe. The little kids will live through this. The teenagers and young adults are completely aware that their world is being destroyed. Yet, no one will do what is required to stop this climate emergency. Not enough people have spoken up. Scientists can't speak out. Our world is coming to the end but there is still the greed of the oil companies.
All of the major oil company executives were told that climate change would occur if fossil fuels continued to be used. Edward Teller, a physicist who worked with J. Robert Oppenheimer, told them this in 1959. They hid the fact that they knew and they lied. They still lie.
Studies have been done that showed that many business leaders are psychopaths. The heads of the oil companies are psychopaths. What they have done is crimes against humanity. Yet, they have no concern for what they have caused. They have no concern for the millions of people who will die because of their actions. They have no conscience. Their selfish greed is all that they care about. That is psychopathy.
We actually need to prepare for the worst to come much sooner than 100 years from now or even 50 years from now. It could be anytime. On January 23, 2023, a 1,550 square kilometer iceberg broke off the Brunt Ice Shelf in Antarctica. The temperatures at the poles are increasing more than in other parts of the earth and they are increasing exponentially. Absolute devastation will come very soon. I know because, although scientists are not allowed to speak out, they do report their findings in peer-reviewed journals. I have studied these journals.
At some point soon, the doomsday glacier, the Thwaites Glacier, will break free from the Antarctic. When this happens, millions of gallons of water will come rushing out. This will raise sea levels by 2 feet and will stop the jet stream which will bring about the next ice age. But this glacier isn't the only one. In both the Arctic and the Antarctic, glaciers are melting quickly. When most have melted, sea levels will rise by 100 feet or more. Some scientists have stated that our future Great Flood will be worse than 11,000 years ago. It will be as bad as 200,000 years ago. This will entirely flood many areas of the world. It will devastate the earth because many cities are located on or near coastlines. Meanwhile, people will keep dying from extreme heat, fires and powerful storms.
All of this frightens me. Yet, I don't know what I or anyone else can do to stop this. As you reported, politicians receive money from the oil companies. They, too, are committing crimes against humanity because they are aiding and abetting the oil companies.
Even though we are supposedly heading toward tipping points, I know that we have already reached the point of no return. We have already exceeded the tipping points. Yet, the psychopathic oil executives still lie. They do pay unscrupulous scientists to report that fossil fuels are not impacting the earth. I am absolutely sick to see such evil being played out. They are no different than psychopathic serial killers. They are just as heinous with the exception that they are murdering many more people than the worst serial killers in history.
Don't worry..just remember man did not create the planet...or else they would not be born...they would have to be outside to do the sky as well...don't know where your believe are...but most of us trust a creator of the planet...the planet will burn as a result of these things...but people will be protected...
@dinyhotmail..... I think about much of what you wrote more n more. Only it bugs me bigtime all the work for the EPA n it's limping like a badly wounded soldier. You don't have to wear a uniform to be a soldier. We fought for women's rights and they've ruined sooo much of women's health care and rights. What kind of braindead zombies are they? Willful ignorance and conscientious stupidity seems rampant. I get on private rants about just bcos it's Kali yuga doesn't mean everything is chiseled in Roman concrete. Thanks for giving me the opportunity to enjoy another insightful human. Many blessings. 🦜🌴🦋
Fear not, for I shall be with you until the end of time (possibly next year).
@@sandponics It means the rest of our lives..and for those born it means from the day of inception to the end of life span
@@sandponics I don't fear for myself. I fear for the innocents who don't know God because they have been led away from God by evil preachers who call themselves Christians.
For some, the realization that climate is changing happens when it most likely kills you.
I hope a future episode will focus on our greed for animal products, which requires huge amounts of land, water and fossil fuels to produce and emits vast amounts of GHGs.
✊
And greed and OVERPOPULATION, the dream to get profit growth out of it and greater international(military and voting democratic) overpower...
But destroyng all with this artifical stupid thinking, while unreflected see it as an entertainment for the own life to be a child factory.
Agreed!
Yes, but they taste so good.
Thank You Al Jazeera for showing this on Earth Day. Germany, Dubai, Hawaii, and South America are feeling the effects of climate change as we speak.
I've been telling kids for a while now that my generation had a great party...they're getting the bill.
Most of them still ask me what am I on about.
I'm no scientist, but my father and uncles fly-fished and pointed out the undeniable effects of agribusiness on our rivers before the planetary warming was even flagged.
I've nearly three quarters of a century clocked. The downhill rush seems to be about to hit the off-ramp.
I hear they have big parties in Doha, why take it all on yourself.
So they fished all the rivers out, but now I suppose it is someone else fault.
@@sandponics I reckon its San Andreas Fau£t.
@@sandponics Recreational fishers don't over fish. Nor do most commercial and subsistence fishers. They generally care about the resource they are utilizing.
Most larger commercial fishing is highly regulated, based on scientific studies of the target species in question.
Only a few regimes continue to sanction over harvesting in this day and age. The main offender being the PRC.
So yeah if there is blame to be thrown around it should be directed against those responsible. Not an assumptive spray all targeting all.
@@sandponicsactually, "conservatives" used to have many of the same goals as environmentalists. But then making money and Wall Street profits became more important than clean air, water, food and preserving the health of future generations.
Fossil fuels are a major contributor to climate breakdown as this video makes clear. What is not mentioned by anyone at any point in the video, is that animal agriculture and the monoculture arable farming that feeds it are of equal, or even greater significance and that both industries make massive use of fossil fuels.
There are but loads of videos about the animal industry and its impact on climate change.
Don't eat
@@shawndrumm3090
Don't drive, don't produce excess meat and junk food. All of which use loads of fossil fuels.
@@shawndrumm3090
Don't drive, don't excessive amounts of meat and junk food.
I have burned more than my share of fossil fuels, how about you?
Right now we are all sitting in a train, with the train driver dead and us heading full steam ahead thowards a canyon, with nobody at all compelled to pull the emergency brakes.
cool.....i often use the train analogy.....we are in a train heading right into a steep rock wall and we will hit it hard
Well while the human train driver is dead...i have a living God who will take over the train and carry me to safety
The brakes have been sabotaged. It's what big business inertia and/or propaganda and think tank lobbying for more corruption have done.

Good luck waiting on your imaginary friend(fill in which ever god) to come help you. 😢 It didn't help any life present for the previous 5 mass extinction events.
the problem of this world , too many powerful narcissistic people with the simple philosophy: give me that , it is mine !
Reminds me of George Carling hey
@@LungaMasilela it is him :)
Just take a look around our world right now & ask yourself , can we really come together to fix climate change when we still resolve problems with wars & killing each other like barbarians ?
We are beyond saving ourselves & will just keep kicking the can down the road for someone else until its too late
The rich elites that has caused this climate change own the republicans and 1/2 the democrats in congress and 5 of the judges of the SCOTUS and every republican president and have a tight leash on the democratic presidents.Trump said in 2016 that he has a couple in his pockets. When the COPs are run by fossil fuel CEOs you know the world 🌎 is F#@Ked.
It is aready too late.
Fortunately Im 54 with no children so by the time our planet becomes unbearable to live on , I will be long gone & wont have to witness the long torturous misery of an existence that befalls the rest of humanity. Always look on the bright side of life 👍🤣
We will probably kick the can down the road until, we can get the global population down to a manageable number, then civilization will die, and the forests will grow again, and those still left alive will survive, as has probably happened many times before. Then the whole stupid game can begin all over again from within the caves.
It's spring where I am. Usually it's an average of 50s-70s with Higgs getting into the 80s. This spring it went straight from a freeze to within a week reaching almost 90. Snow is melting faster than local experts and ski resorts expected just weeks after saying "resorts will stay open well into the summer". I think they've done enough here with prescribed burns to lessen the wildfire impact, but it's still going to be an intensely hot summer if it's just now spring and we are already consistently pushing to touch 90. Still glad I live where we actually get all 4 seasons, but spring is becoming much shorter.
Good to here about the use of prescribed burns. Very important in this day and age. There needs to be more of it.
@@raclark2730 In the UK we've had 3 months of ridiculous amounts of rain and mild weather, the crop fields are saturated and the farmers are looking at greatly reduced yields, in the last couple of days we've had 'Summer like' days in spring 5-8 degrees over the average, looks like its going to be a warm one.
@@someblokecalleddave1 Cant expect constancy in the climate they have to adapt.
I've been wondering how much the volcanic activity in Iceland is going to affect the UK n Scandinavia and Greenland. All that hot air n ash has to flow somewhere. I wonder if any medical specialists have been to Greenland to explore the bacterial skin infections and whatnot from the melting of the permafrost. Be careful of your desires. Last week I heard it's already 90deg f in Phoenix. About a month early but it's still stifling. Many blessings ya'll.
Greed? Interesting way to spell CAPITALISM
All this came from Reagan.
What have you purchased this week to help support the capitalists?
I am most sad for my children. The earth they will inherit will be so hostile. My children are below 10.
The only way to start change is to change the laws on political nonsense. I have felt for years that campaigning and lobbying should be outlawed. We can hold scheduled debates for the politicians that all can watch and make their decisions based on their answers not on how much money a corporation puts in their pockets. No politician should need money to win.
This!
lobbying is just a complete conflict of interest, utterly ridiculous it is legal practice!
50 years?!? we have 2 years left
Excellent journalism - thank you.
This is our last stable decade on Earth.
I just wonder is everybody just gonna keep shopping -as it all burns down around us? When is fashion not gonna matter anymore?
Best line " It's a tendency of human being, first messed up and then moved to somewhere else " Why don't we stop these technological evolution & just live a simple and beautiful life, why are we so inquisitive to interfere in the creation of God. So sad, because of human beings greed, animals have to face the consequences as well without any fault.
This is going to make me cry. People say "think of the children!" when they want to control children and ban certain types of people but not this. Not to actually save the children and their futures..
Best answer!!!!
Tray Dupre is both indicative and exceptional. He is exceptional in that he is 1 in 1000 in the SE Louisiana are that verbally recognize climate change. He is indicative in that even though he sees and experiences the destruction, he chooses not only to not leave, but also participates in the very industry that drives the ecosystem destruction. I lived in this area my whole life. I took the military route out of that hole. Many of the Cajuns who live in the area are wealthy from the oil industry and energy blind. They choose religion and money over reality. It seems they are also indicative of the greater whole of humanity. A tragedy effected.
How I love 💘 Al Jazeera 💯 best news, documentary,and interview channel 😍! Ooh and it represents every continent/everyone without fear or favour..very informative
Greed is Evil!
So was Reagan
At 11:24
"I spoke to Senators..."
He spoke to a well-greased system. Greased with multiple million dollar "donations." (aka bribes)
The Human greed is too great for this world or any world. The world is on course to resetting itself. But it's O.K., we had a very comfortable life.
Nature has provided everything we require to survive and live happily but failed to cater for our lusts and greeds inbuilt in our minds.. These greeds and lusts were designed for gathering /grabbing slightly extra for our children and future generations not everyone shares..
keep all fighting each other to keep all distracted and not pay attention to what we all should unite on, taking care of what provides life to all species. home to all
Colorado, California, Oregon, and many other places used to be full of open spaces when I was a young man. Now those same places are filled with people and cheap homes. The destruction is on all of us. . The corporations are just serving the need of the masses.
Show me a cheap home in Colorado. This is myth making.
No cheap house in California either.
@@user-dj6hu9gq4t I obviously didn’t mean cheap as in monetary terms. Cheaply built is what I meant.
There are cheap homes in California but very few people want to live in those areas.
This is just the beginning
Indeed. We are at the top of a giant slide with a bottom that terminates in the destruction of our ecosystem.
Greed is a disease that needs to be addressed
Thank you for a very thoughtful video-doc; this 67yo also has a very heavy heart for not doing more to combat climate-change. It's almost too late but every positive effort now will help alleviate a potentially terrible future. That's the best I have for you, sad to say.
okay finally there is a video showing the front line of the ocean rise. So why isn't CNN reporting this nightly? Good jobs show more of this please.
Hate that humans have that greed. Wish people where more empaths and logical.
in 100 years everything will be restored and the beautiful rose will shine in 1000 years..
Thanks for your journalism about Mother Earth which is a living entity.native people have known about this since the beginning of time.
A really good title for this documentary. And yes Greediness of other people and businesses for not looking on what their greediness might bring it destroy our mother nature and that's why when natural disaster happens there's no one to blame but the greediness and not being concerned with our mother nature. Each and everyone of us are responsible to help our mother nature to recover because we are the one who also has a part of having this climate change happening on earth. We must need to discipline ourselves and be aware that we need to protect our mother nature so that we can have a good balance in everything on earth where we live.
We can’t change the past but we can start now. Restore our planet before it is too late
I agree. I always said greed the greedy people are destroying this planet. Their motto "more people, more money"
Knowledge is power, thank you.
no it isn't .. applying it in a practical sense is.. and that's a huge difference
Our whole world 🌎 is changing.
I hope this hits home. I did not have any children because I didn't want to subject them to this future. My conscious is clear... is yours?
Nope! I had 8 kids and would have had more! God never mentioned global warming in the Bible. This is man’s narrative to manipulate the masses.

Very nice documentary 👌 👍 👏
What a lovely couple of frank, honest, lovable folk. Very well made.
I heard someone said, the poor soil condition is a bigger problem but it’s not talked about because they can’t tax or penalize the people for poor soil management.
We are competing with nature, forgetting that we are wiping ourselves out with the what we try to do with what nature doesn't allow.
Thank you for this. Lets wake up all we can.
What about over population, that is the greatest contributor that drives up demand.
It’s the people in the developed nations that cause almost all of the emissions.
„Overpopulation“ is just an excuse to not change anything. If we all lived like the people who are driving „overpopulation“ there would be no problem.
A biologist once said, the more he learns, the more afraid he becomes.
Thanks for the great documentary ❤
Unfortunately, the most prudent thing to do now is to begin to adapt to a 2-2.5C warmer world. Modern civilization runs on fossil fuels and even needs fossil fuels to manufacture, distribute and install renewable energy systems. We can't shut off the flow without crashing global civilization itself. At some deeper level, we all know this and that's why the masses aren't protesting seriously in the streets - and why politicians, bankers, hedge fund managers and CEO's aren't going to do anything impactful either.
Basically, we're all passengers or crew on the Titanic, but we know already that we're going to hit that iceberg sometime soon. Best to get a spot on a lifeboat or cobble together something that can float. The rest will either go down with the ship or expire in the merciless ocean. Momentum... too much momentum to stop in time. The outcome is obvious & inevitable.
Act now, choose wisely if you're in the Western world. Don't vote for people who deny climate change for profit. We still have a short amount of time to adapt and mitigate, helping the others in the process. But we need to act, both individually and as a society.
Greed kills.
End corporate personhood, end corporate lies, end Citizens United.
Subbed out of appreciation for the topic. Like many here, I will be dead before the worst hits (50). But it pains me terribly to see the planet being ruined by the few while the many suffer.
It will not change.
It will not get better.
I'd suggest revolution to the entire planet, but I don't want to be dragged off by the NSA.
I am very sorry for future generations. Hunger Games, The Running Man (great book STUPID movie) and a million others have all been on point.
Meanwhile, billionaires pull the strings, buy off politicians, and live in 40k sqr foot compounds and 100 m $ bunkers. AI? Just a tool to make them richer. When the jobs are all gone, they won't set up UBI - it'll be 10% well off, 90% poor. Look around you if you don't believe me for some reason.
We're not advanced. We're not different. We are apes, and we're showing that more and more each day. Can split the atom, can't overcome greed. Truly pathetic.
I guess they're trying to have this conversation now since People are realizing that everyone isn't going into space...
We have to take care of our planet...
What goes up must come down.
Being born again is being released from the captivity of religion
At last! Only been talking about greed being the biggest problem for 15 fuc*ing years!!!
This Young Man was right from his own perspective! Our earth is changing, do to all the extracting from below the earths crust. All the infrastructures that are built on the earths crust, come from below the ground! The crust humans live on is1,802 miles thick. Below the crust is the Earth's mantle, which is the layer of the planet, that lies between the crust and the middle of the planet, called the core which is 10,800 degrees. The mantle is very hot, with temperatures ranging from about 227 C (440 F) at the upper boundary with the crust to about 3,930 C (7,100 degrees F) at the core mantle. The mantle under the ocean is even hotter than previously thought, by about 60 C (110 degrees F) The earth has about 82 mineral which governments rely on for trillions of dollars in trade, a round the planet. Massive tunneling, massive voids where oil, natural gas, coal, gold, silver, iron, and so on the earth produces, which a thinner crust is developing, where heat rises faster to where people live! North Pole's Artic Ice is melting faster because of the amount of oil taking from below. The Earth is a living organism (which is alive) and is made up of water, like our bodies 96% water, 4% dust!
Exactly… I wish more people would understand this.
Born and raised in florida I see exactly what's going on
😢😢😢 let's weep a river of tears upon these.. apocalyptic sights 😢😢😢now that scientific knowledge is average TV entertainment, everybody and anybody knows how to get involved and invert the global warming, fighting back extreme pollution and refresh the atmosphere before violent storms do it, only united like a nice global family we can make the difference 😢😢😢
So interesting that a news source funded by a Gulf State would put out a video like this. Out-of-control consumer culture feeds greed and is in fact a variety of greed. Let's hear about how activists for minimalism are challenging and actually changing the unbridled consumer culture of the Gulf States. Let's hear about indoor-ski-slopes going out of business there. Let's hear about Gulf Staters making an earnest effort to return to the simplicity of their ancestors. Is this happening? It could happen. (Actually, I believe that greed is a product of evolution. It's deep within the primitive brain of all human beings. Ergo, appeals against greed are hopeless.)

It's important to address that we can't change the way things are going.. there are no alternatives.
I'm in my 20's and I've always thought that something must be done, but, unfortunately I don't anymore.
Some people still think that we can change and break this "unchangebility", but I found it much easier to believe in eschatology, i.e. the end of humankind.
I agree. It's far too late.
Its NOT TO LATE!
Niet dakbedekking maar dakbedekking, sorry
This system has conditioned you to think this way. Join an organization that shares your values and is doing something to improve the lives of others. It will take a mass movement to remove this profit based system and restore the balance of humans and nature. If the current system was able to solve climate change, it would have done so already. Opeth rocks.
Easier -- and lazier and more cowardly. It takes guts, strength, intelligence, great love, wisdom -- and much more -- to take an active role as a changemaker.
The more people opt for the lazy & cowardly path, the greater the burden on those of us working to create a better system and reality.
I've been trying to explain this horrible thing for so many years. To my friends and family, and everybody calls me crazy. It's like right there in front of our faces. I've only been alive for 45 years in 25 years ago. It just clicked and 25 years later, it's just completely noticeable.
This beats watching music videos.
I live in Brazil and today 5th May 2024 the south region of the country is being severely devasted by diluvian rains and there're floods everywhere. In my region at Sao Paulo state we are experiencing another heat wave (the third in six month).
You cannot repair my heart after what you ALL have done
You can see in real time the effects if you cruise down the Nile from luxor to aswan beautiful clear skies then 1 lonesome cloud as you sail further 2 then 3 then many as you spot the cause a factory

I was mesmerised
This is why those billionaires are building bunkers instead of helping to fix the problems which some of them cause this to happen.
It's not greed, it's selfishness.
🇨🇦 Comment what you did recently to save the earth. You can bypass all lost hope!
A simple equation to destroy a planet: people who are concerned don't run the world, those who aren't concerned run the world.
Inaction is mostly due to greed of the fossil fuel industry, propaganda and corrupt politicians influenced by lobbyists is responsible not ALL of us regular citizens as they want us to believe.
Why is everyone trying to be politically correct? It's not greed that is causing climate change. The sole reason for climate crisis is modern, aspirational lifestyle. No one wants to bell the cat.
Thank you!!
The way I see it,it’s human psychology and sadly there is really nothing we can do about it 🤷♂️
BUT DONT BLAME THE MILITARY lNDUSTRY 😅
or the fat cats in Doha.
Asi es como la luz de la libertad trata a su propie gente, su pueblo.

New designs are needed for high traffic areas that, suck up carbon , it's the only wise answer here''.
We have a lot to sort through before the end of this century.
We as people destroy everything arround us
Yes. I lost my wife and kids in I Am Legend and didnt even remember until recently.
As you all should know, we are now imploding from within. The sixth extinction is upon us all, 😢😮 and the reset of humanity is in the process and happening now right before our own eyes 😢😮WHY ? because of human negligence and its associated behaviors towards itself 😮😢.
In the future, we're all gonna live above water. Floating houses and waterworld.
Nuclear reactors?
Money, money, money, the root of all evil.
Money is the problem with our society, environment.
Do we realy need money. Wouldn't the world and our lives be so much better with out money.
...don't worry about the planet but just humans and non....

Greed, yes, but greed that operates within a system that sees the world like a cyclops: through only one eye. Corporations and their officers are rewarded purely on profit, nothing else. The externalities of this profit is not included in the decision making process. Like fines for breaking laws, lobbying (bribing) government officials are merely seen as a cost of business. To change the rules of government seems almost as insurmountable as changing the actions of multi-national corporations.
reduce household purchasing power by banning feminism
companies have no choice but to change their ways
as long theres demand, theres products
Doesn't it suck when people say they care about each other but then some (most of the) people end up watching their lives slip away in front of them because of the impact of the decisions of the (o hello club you are so exclusive) people who are not watching their lives slip away.
