My point is the changes should be shown on a full scale and the economic impact and loss of human life/quality of life should be taken into account when developing a solution. I think the Earth is warming. I think Humans are partially to blame. I think we are using resources and are not coming up with replacements fast enough. All of the studies I have seen basically say that if we stop all fossil fuel usage completely today, the impact would be negligible on the climate and mass human suffering would ensue.

    In the Netherlands we keep a keen eye on the 'rising sea levels', which I put in quotes because there is also a bit of a seesaw effect going on with the land masses, and the fact that much of our land was sea to begin with, thus leading to ground subsidence.
    So far we're experiencing a very steady 2mm/yr rise since accurate measurements begun in 1890, i.e. the dramatic pictures of sea levels rising are a bit disingenuous when omitting the time scale!

      But it needs to produce results not 500 page studies of nothing that can be replicated outside of a lab for less than 50K (50,000) an ounce (yes in some cases an exaggeration or miss representation but in many an under estimation).
      Or such foolishly extreme measures millions are put out of work to starve. The real world problems with those ideas can be just as bad as the so called solutions. Oh they can just change to the new green industries... that is the dumbest argument ever. Where are these companies that are hiring in those numbers. Do their skills transfer (some don't some do) the real world problems with those ideas can be just as bad as the so called solutions. Companies such as this will take years to develop into the sizes to justify the sheer number of workers they would force out. Greta's little solution would have bankrupted more than a couple of the countries in the process and likely driven their populations so far against a solution as to have reversed any good done.
      So called Green Energy is a big victim of the studies with no resolution. We can produce the power. But not reliably on call at the times and in the quantities desired/needed. We can produce more than enough power to cover those times too in all honesty. What can't be done is storing it. Is research ongoing. We've been searching for the next generation battery since before lithium Ion batteries were even on the market and world wide billions are likely being spent on this. I've seen a couple of interesting alternatives but even they have large issues that will take time. And then we have to find out what side issues do these solutions create (solar has some pretty nasty by products from production I'm told and wind has been showing some worts with birds and the blades being difficult or seriously expensive to recycle at this time if it costs more than you make off it to recycle then its not really recyclable)

      @@Dawgsofwinter Now that you explain it, I can see where you're coming from-honestly, your criticisms of current efforts against climate change, and current movements against it, are pretty understandable.
      First of all, just to get this out of the way, I really hope you understand why people are beginning to yell into megaphones about climate change: nothing substantial at a national, or even worldwide level, has been done to at least mitigate climate change. The situation is getting _very_ desperate, and though it may seem like a lot of people are doing it just for attention, I can assure you they aren't-but their methods are flawed.
      The current popular movements to reduce the effects of climate change (namely extinction rebellion, but there are plenty of others)-with the way they tend to put focus on simple individual habits, rather than corporations, governments, or even the very roots of capitalism itself-suck; they tend to see humans as divorced from nature, not a part of it, and tend to advocate the use of band-aids such as tax credits to cover the bullet hole of man-made climate change. And you are right that current alternative energy solutions can have some pretty bad side effects that _need_ to be either ridden of, or at least mitigated-I can't deny that-but compared to fossil fuels, those effects almost nothing. From the perspective of a physics undergrad, current research on solar panel tech is looking pretty good, with cleaner, more efficient solar cells being invented on pretty much a monthly basis. (It's worth mentioning that experimental solar panel systems tend to be expensive simply _because_ they're experimental, kind of like how the old point-contact transistor at Bell Labs was _way_ more expensive than a standard transistor you'd solder into a circuit board.)
      But yeah, at our current rate, renewable energy can't take care of current energy needs-though there is a catch to that:
      Much of the electricity used at the moment goes towards things like data centers, where corporations have massive servers all under one roof; advertising both on-, and offline (see doi.org/10.1016/j.eiar.2018.08.004); and powering mansions for just a couple people. Provided we either oust the current political system with something cooperative-I'd suggest reading Bookchin's _The Ecology of Freedom,_ or checking out Saint Andrewism here on youtube (his video on the current climate movement is fantastic, ruclips.net/video/ay8zeU37D4c/видео.html) for more information-or at least find a better way to manage current resources (such as removing data centers and the like), renewable energy could easily fit the world's power bill.
      Ultimately, we need action for something that, at the very least, provides for every single person, and makes both a foundation for a sustainable future-to eventually take the bullet out of the wound and suture it up. (Btw I really appreciate you taking the time to explain your argument.)

      This graph does not match historical news reports. For example:
      The heat of 1877, 1911, 1921 and 1936. The graph indicates a normal or cool climate during these years.
      1877 was the year without winter. It was an unexplained phenomenon that baffled the world. Some did blame sun spots.
      The summer of 1911 saw 100 people a day dying in New York and 40k people died in Paris from heat.
      In 1921, millions of people died across Europe and Asia from heat and famine caused by drought. It was also bad all over the world.
      In 1936 was the dust bowl era in the US where *millions* of real climate refugees fled the Midwest to California to escape the heat. Well documented in the book "The Grapes of Wrath" by Steinbeck.
      The point in the graph in 1936, is *colder,* than the years the world was freaking out over the coming ice age in the 1970's!
      This graph does not match historical news reports. NCAR's graph matches the historical news reports.
      We haven't seen brutal heat waves since the 1930's yet the graph shows a much hotter climate today.

      @@TheConstitutionFirst I am afraid that you are part of the issue as everybody else, me even replying to you also underlines my role into the complex nature of this problem.
      It's very easy, we do have an effect on the delicate natural balance this planet has, anthropogenic causes for climate change are very well recorded, I just don't like and I don't believe in climate doomerism. I have an interest in Astronomy, and I can tell you that cyclic burst of sunspots do affect the climate of our planet, rather minimally, temperatures have been on an upward trend since the industrial revolution. However, I am less interested in geology, but happen to know that CO2 emissions from Volcanoes emit about the same emissions as humans... For just a few hours/days. We've been making emissions for 271 years and disturbing the natural process of climate change and we aren't stopping any time soon, better yet, rates of emission are increasing.
      It's easy to get confused and thinking you are onto something, is easy to see scientists change their minds according to the data they gathered and think that they are simply not being cosistent. Science isn't consistent, if it were, we would have no need to figure out how the world works. And then there are the journalists who have to add onto this confusion: global warming and climate change as terms had always existed in tandem it's just that the frequency of use changed on the basis of sensationalism, and global cooling feel into disfavor as evidence hinted that it wasn't the case.

And during that period, they've also seen and read countless predictions of floods, starvation and ice caps disappearing, that then have failed to come to be. Is it surprising then if their lived memory which contradicts the narrative suggests to them not to trust the increasing extremism we face on this matter?
      Add to this the proven issue that work of a more doomsday nature gets more attention and funding than work which paints a less apocalyptic picture... Well...

      Excellent presentation, but it was not balanced and the information is questionable; at 15:30, the world average temperature has increased by one degree in 65 years.
      The average temperature around the world has only changed by less then 1 degree since 1898, that to me is extremely stable.
      1898 -> 1998; CO2 increased from 295ppm to 367ppm = 72ppm
      1998 -> 2015; CO2 increased to 403ppm = 36ppm
      In 17 years, C02 increased by 50% of the previous 100 years in 1998 with no measurable differences in the data for temperature changes.
      There is no measurable impact of any kind with the increase of CO2 showing any affect on the temperature.
      Data from Greenland records the hottest days in the 1930's.
      Sea level is increasing about 20cm over this period (20th Century) and this increase is similar for the previous 100 years and is quite normal over a further time in history.

      @@alexandermelbaus2351 wow. You do understand that a planet doesn’t react instantly to input right? The El Niño/ La Niña effect alone takes the atmosphere 3 to 6 months to change states. So the warming you think we’ve escaped is on its way in the coming decades.
      The warming we are seeing now is s from the CO2 emissions from anywhere from as far back as the 1980’s to the 2000’s. That’s why everyone will freak out in the next decades when warming goes super sonic and most people are caught off guard. Like I tell people we will be luck to have a well functioning civilization in 2050 and if we continue very lucky to ever get to 2100. This nonsense the news media tells people about how much time we have to change is exactly that nonsense. The Earth is one big ship and like ocean going vessels it takes a long time to change course and when the course changes it also takes a long time to see the changes.
      So like Biden taking credit for the vaccinations it was actually Trump who set the ball rolling for Biden’s 100 day success. We have very difficult times ahead and no one’s talking about it because they think someone else is working on it. Unfortunately the only thing we can actually do to make the situation better is stop most of the worlds production and no one really wants to do that.
      Unless we actually get a true leader somewhere in the world which can show the world the way we will slowly go extinct. We need less jobs, less production, less births, less travel and less of everything except equality. And just in case you think I’m communist I’m not saying complete equality but at least food, shelter and clothing for people along with a minimum amount of power. Obviously it has to come from somewhere and yes that will be the richer people in the world but reality makes it the only way to avoid nuclear war. We also will have to start teaching useful things to our kids like organic farming and removing those lawns in the suburbs to turn into gardens and chicken coops. Of course we won’t give up on research and technology but we will have to focus our RnD into more useful avenues instead of what we do now and try to entice people to buy stuff.
      We will also have to build rail service and transit to have some way of moving people and goods electrically and pretty much ration everything with the money we have changed into carbon credits which everyone would be allotted an equal amount of our very little budget. The rest of things would be back to the barter system and would mainly rely on people being people to each other.
      As you can probably tell from what I’ve said here I’m not holding my breath for our specie to survive and cities especially large ones may face a very difficult time. Anyway I’m sure the decision makers of the world will have another plan which will promise everyone a great job and more growth and great space colonization around the universe which will be very optimistic and will actually be tried but will only speed our end.

      As someone who is naturally sceptical, I often find myself questioning certain hypotheses. The problem nowadays is that sceptical individuals are often touted as “conspiracy theorists” for simply stating an alternative hypothesis. Obviously there are some people who take this to the extreme and the problem with these people is that they blur the lines between healthy scepticism and illogical scepticism on the basis of personal beliefs and biases. Objectivity is very rare nowadays and I think far too many people learn something once and then won’t change their beliefs even when more reliable research is presented to them.

      If your goal is "nothing changes", then yes it is too late.
      If your goal is "create and maintain a world stable enough for all humans to live a decent life on" then no, it's not too late.
      Our history is proof that things move very slowly for long periods of time, and then they move very rapidly over short periods of time. Political change that comes "early" enough to prevent climate change from destroying our civilization may yet come; but it will not come in the form of the election of just another candidate or political party within the system. Rather it will come from the collapse of our political system and the emergence of a new one.
      When and how this happens and what the replacement looks like is yet to be determined - and it depends on all of us to make decisions.

    One of the biggest issues we have in society is the inability to question the science without being shut down or dismissed as a science denier. If no one questions the science, the flaws will be taught as the truth, and that will lead to very bad situations occurring. Dissent of mainstream opinion shouldn't be a crime.

      Science is the process of figuring out the truth. Any scientific argument should be considered as a placeholder theory. Using the scientific method to continually improve or replace these theories is what humans do, and should do, to get as close as possible to the truth. Any attempt to disprove something should be taken with absolute seriousness. The people accusing others of being science deniers for no reason other that personal bias don't represent the scientific community in the slightest. However, I will say that there is a difference in attempting to disprove a prevailing theory and just not wanting to believe it because you don't like it.

    I have noticed that the more certain someone is about a "soft" fact, like the future, the more likely they are to have blindered their view to comfort their own assumptions. Being aware of uncertainty lets us look at experts with more of a detached perspective. That very uncertainty helps us find more reasonable answers. Maybe not "The Correct" answer of this day, but one we were unable to see from our own certainty. Just remember every solution changes the ratio of "good" answers to "bad" answers, which moves some solutions from one side to the other.

      A rant to no one in particular: Some people have lost touch with what it means to be a skeptic. They just think it means distrust everything one side says and believe everything their side says. Distrust the experts and media if so inclined, but don't put blind faith in your preferred websites/channels while pretending it isn't another form of "media". Ignore all that; look mainly at the studies and metastudies themselves. If there's anything with more credibility than media, experts and scientists, it's science itself.
      The most flagrant violators of this concept are the people who call everyone "sheep", who ironically are the biggest "sheep" themselves. However, don't think you're immune from bias just because you're not one of those people. When "mainstream media" touted that masks are useless against diseases in 2020, most liberals were completely on board with it and none of my friends believed me when I said it was contradictory to scientific studies that went all the way back to 2012.

Some say that, particularly cloth mask, can increase the spread of infection. Most studies also involved health workers, very few pre-pandemic studies involved the general public. Health workers are trained in the use of masks, change them regularly and have in house laundry services (that was the subject of a study in itself - a study which showed that when health care workers washed cloth masks themselves at home, the masks increased the rate of infection rather than reducing it).
      A court case in Ontario, between healthcare workers and the hospital, determined from the BOK that there was no evidence that masks reduced the spread of infection.
      And though the CDC, the NHS and PHE are s always mentioning (but not referencing) studies which prove that masks do not cause hypoxia, the pre-pandemic study by Bader seemed to have proved the opposite.
      Still the largest study done todate, the Danish study, failed to conclude that masks prevented the spread of infection, stating that there was no evidence that masks work. This coupled with observational data from masked and maskless states (or even counties - such as in Arizona), there us nothing that can be shown to prove that masks work.
      The only way to prove a negative (normally) is to continue to fail to prove the positive.

      They need to show people the actual effects. By using a closed system with different gases and then placing a light that emits UV radiation in that system. As the UV light heats up the bottom surface, the surface will emit IR radiation. That is what is absorbed by Methane and Carbon Dioxide. Those gases are what cause our atmosphere to warm. Otherwise more of that IR radiation would radiate into space.

      Only for some. I distrust scientists, as I distrust any human capable of flaw and corruption. Just because someone is a "scientist" does not make them morally "better" or more honest. They are just a person with a job in science, and prone to all the flaws of human behavior.
      Not to mention professional scientists are trained in one highly focused area of science, and on any matters outside of that they are just as useful as any other person off the street.
      There is also just too much conflict of interest in the scientific community, people can be easily swayed by money, and if that does not work, there are a multitude of ways to manipulate and coerce a scientist into supporting a particular hypothesis.
      Bias is rampant everywhere these days, and the science community is not immune to it, not one bit.
      Yes, there is an end to enlightenment, it is an end to enlightenment within science, science has become corrupted and no longer seeks truth. It seeks profit, and subsidies and grants. Academic science is just as petty and "clickey" as any junior high school. Our civilization is now lost.
      Frequently people place too much trust in authority figures, having never really had that childhood illusion of the authority figure's competence shattered. Distrust in authority usually comes from experience in life, having been let down and exposed to the flaws of those who are supposed to be "in charge", and "expert".

      I see 71% of global carbon emissions produced by 100 companies and the US military. Meanwhile, its somehow each individual's responsibility. And the political ideology of "personal responsibility" is the same camp denying that a problem exists.

      @InciniumVGC 3 года назад +8

      There's multiple factors going into this:
      1. Scientists who have been, for whatever reason, corrupted into giving a result desired by a bad faith actor with an agenda (corporations and activists both come to mind here) repeatedly have damaged the credibility of the institution.
      2. Science has been used to justify views and actions that are unjust by today's moral standards, things like social Darwinism, phrenology, eugenics, etc. and while this is not the fault of the scientists themselves usually, in fact it's often through a misinterpretation of the science, it still has left a bad taste in people's mouths.
      3. The political climate of the West, America in particular, has become polarized and science is a victim of this. Questioning science has gone from a requirement to forbidden under threat of "cancellation", in many cases involving being labeled with terms such as bigot and racist, having researched censored or shut down entirely, and being blackballed from careers.
      4. Science is no longer accessible to average people. Our body of knowledge has advanced to a degree that a layman can no longer even understand the science properly without a significant level of background education and intellectual capacity. Being scientifically literate is too difficult for many people. Certain types of science are also prohibitively inaccessible, since it's not like regular people can just operate their own hadron collider in their backyard. As such it has effectively become just "trust us, we're scientists we know better than you" and this standard is really no better than religion saying "trust us, it's written in this book"
      The strength of the Enlightenment and the scientific method that it produced is the idea that reality is objective and can be verified by observation. While there are indeed multiple ways a person can come to "know" something, only the scientific method can produce knowledge that can actually be transferred from person to person through space and time without having to blindly trust that what the person is telling you is true. However without average people being able to verify for themselves through observation and experimentation, it's gone back to blindly trusting people. Thus we've moved from rationalism and modernity to postmodernism, which is in many ways regressive and destructive. It's no longer about objective truth and facts not caring about your feelings, but subjective truth and feelings not caring about your facts.

    The studies often times say an entirely different thing than the media reports. The media will read a summary or read a short amount of the study and not actually get the takeaway. Heck sometimes they conclude the exact opposite that the study data shows, like when reporters claimed a study in the 70s showed that we were headed into an ice age, when the study said the exact opposite (and were seeing was correct.)

      Those didn't tend to be scientists. Many others picked up on this well before Hans Rosling.
      This was just an obvious question concerning the boom in human population in general going exponential, and what it meant... was there some sort of limiting factor as nature tends to do when keeping constraints on exponential. And there are:
      People tend to stop having as many children when child mortality declines and with decent health and food production.

      Two hundred years ago the energy industry as we know it didn't exist. Food production has become highly automated and efficient in terms of reduction of human labor. Low cost energy has enabled the luxury of thinking that the climate could be managed. Previously hand to mouth existence was the norm and infant mortality was common.

      @-GinΠΓ Τάο That's me - poking the ground with sticks. Ancient cities are built on the rubble of the old cities. They didn't have dump trucks and excavators , after an earthquake they would drag off and reuse some materials, but much of it would be built over. Some ancient cities vanished with the harbor filled with silt, and sometimes a new city was built on the filled in harbor. There are 6 million skeletons in the catacombs of Paris, all of them once as living as we are now. The planet itself is far more sustainable than we are.

      Very nice but the graphic at 15:55 is wrong... very wrong. He showed temperatures when people were dying in the 1870's through 1921 as cool, including the dust bowl era in the 1930's.
      The graph shows temperatures are even hotter today... when people least likely to die from weather related causes.
      He was right about the experts being wrong... as he clearly is.
