      If it's not you, or me, refraining from ever using fossil again, there's millions willing to. And even if there's millions wanting to totally stop this fossil emissions , there's plenty of populist leaders, cashing in on the other half wishing to hang on to flying holidays, 2 pounds meat a person BBQs, driving the car a quarter mile to the local mall, buying all the latest gadgets on Amazon, while declaring this climate change talk is leftist rubbish. They'll hold on to it, even if Florida floods or Hollywood burns. "That's just the weather, innit?"

Like Nazis were enabling Hitler even though most of them thought that what they were doing is wrong. I think most of us know something is deeply wrong but we don't have a share story to unite around and therefore nothing to make us feel in power to do something about it.
      So we do what we are great at doing instead: forgetting the issue and keep grinding.

      @@j85grim4 I think there is a difference between choosing not to care and not able to care.
      I think most people are not able to care.
      Not able because not having any grasp on what they can do about it and therefore we see lack of care.
      I think of it as an important nuance. Clarifies what is needed. If people did not care (as in choosing not to), there would be a point and trying to 'wake people up'. If we take it for granted that actually people aren't that blind and stupid but they are frozen, what is needed is giving concrete steps to get there or a unifying story to start make meaning of what needs to be done and our role in it.
      AND the most probable outcome is that we keep on what we are doing up until we cant breathe. But it is because we are such a pathetic species, not because we lack awareness or care.

    What a powerful and amazing presentation and absolutely spot on.... but I fear that if we don't change the profit motive at the core, we will never change the ecological death train we are on... if we are to follow the recommendations given here , I believe the best chance is to transform the corporations themselves by making the workers the owners, and share the benefits and the risks with everyone... the idea of the limited liability corporation has to die... We need the mining done in an ecologically safe manner and this has to be non-negotiable....
    By spreading the benefits and the risks to everyone working in the business, we kill two birds with one stone... and the only people who would do this, are the locals who live near the operations.... Because they live with the consequences ...

      Personal greed might be a better description of the driver and a free market that is set up to satisfy those needs. The means of production being in private hands (capitalism) might have a couple of flaws, when that flaw is presumed on continual growth.
      If we were to drop the emissions by what is needed it would mean people staying home, to have food, electricity, medical care and accommodation free and a small allowance allowed, how many people would sign up for that, at least 7 billion I reckon, you tell people they have all those things free and all they have to do is stop consuming, I don't think it would be a hard sell.

    A very insightful presentation!
    The road ahead is fraught with complications & existential risks. Fortunately the constraints on the continuous growth of human civilization are intensifying and there is the very real possibility of a rough but successful landing at some sort of state of equilibrium with the global ecosystem.
    There are several key drivers to get us there, both disenfranchised young people and what remains of indigenous communities in the "undeveloped" wilderness areas are immensely important, as are those who value a healthy & bio-diverse planet that harbors more than humans, our pets, our food and our physical infrastructures. And, most importantly, the gorilla in the room: global climate change.
    I suspect that the global climate crisis will hit humanity hard over the next decades, and that will have the desirable effect of forcing the re-ordering goals & priorities as well as putting some braking pressure on unsustainable economic growth. Still, positive change to a more modest standard of living that moderates individual & collective carbon & resource utilization footprints will only be realized under the relentless pressure of this negative feedback loop.
    Human nature is the problem and real change on this scale will only happen when we have exhausted our extravagant alternatives and are staring down into the abyss of self-extinction.

      Well, global South countries _have_ become more aware of their riches, and to not give it away just like that. Also, they may have found they have more of a negotiation position and bargaining power, now Europe, and the West in general, is in a more dependent position because of the Ukraine war and energy constraints and lack of raw materials following the sanctions against Russia.
      However, in how far the South would agree to a somewhat lower pace of economic growth...

    Great video! There should be more of them, indeed. The efforts taken by sincere people should be appreciated more on all levels, the time is crucial. Still my heart bleeds... I can only imagine how painful it is for God to watch all of the destruction and suffering engulfing the planet. All living things that he created with great love are suffering, millions struggling to survive, while still so many others are bathing in a cocktail of sweet illusions of stable progress and ignorance of the true condition we are all in... The more we, humans, progress into the future, the more I'm sure God will not endure this injusctice without end, only he can and will stop those who destroy his creation, the Earth (Revelation 11:18, it's interesting to note that in the firt century, when these words were written, nobody really understood what they meant, until the global impact of humanity's lifestyle on the planet Earth became obvious), and it's only God who can and will renew justice for all who call his name by restoring Paradise conditions, just the way it was in the very beginning of everything on this planet (Psalm 37:2, Matthew. 5:5). The latest events on Earth indicate that the prophecies of the end times for this system of things written in the God's Word are being fulfilled as never before, and, yes, a better world is drawing near! Scientists do agree that the aftermath of the global ecological and geopolitical events on Earth is of Biblical proportions. And the Bibile states clearly: things will change for much better on an unimaginable scale pretty soon: www.jw.org/finder?wtlocale=E&issue=2021-05&pub=wp21&srcid=share. But the decision to be a responsible conscious human being worthy of living on it and possessing it in the Biblical sense really is on each of us.

    This is a powerful and amazing presentation based on passions, but science is unlimited when the industrial revolution on clean and ecological energies is orchestrated by science and inventions, and then improved by innovators who have ability to improve and increase efficiency. The World and especially politicians who control the world and economic development, follow traditional knowledge and practices and ignore and do not collaborate or fund real inventors on green energies. These practice after decades implementations shows clearly is failing on energy transition and other directions, including geopolitics.
    Solutions exists, the world really need clean energies, but green tech revolution with wind turbines and solar PV or even with biomass algae or others is ineffective.
    The direction energy revolution must go is levitation-gravity power, and this increase the efficiency on energy generation more than 3-7 times compared with wind or solar power. This directly will decrease the mining by 3-7 times and will generate energy where we need and when we need, so will decrease the need for energy storing and energy transmission.
    More details can be exchanged on private with government or industry representatives.

    What is the urgency? The demografi in the world will work in a direction of lowering the CO2 emissions. For example, by 2050 there are only half of the Chinese left on this globe. Calculations show that a doubling of CO2 will cause approx another degree of warming. Human emissions are a few percent of the globes natural emissions. The rising temperature that has been detected since Little Iceage is well within, for example, the globes temperature during the Roman Empire. A very prosperous time on the globe. Rushing from pumping oil to digging for rare metals is completely idiotic. Transport sector only emits around 7% of the CO2. Why chase for rare earths to build solar panels, windmills and electric cars...? The only energy source that has potential to replace fossile fuels without rare earths is nuclear. Phase out fossile fuels at a slow rate. Maybe 60-100 years. Go for nuclear fission. By the time the new fission reactors that, by the way, burns the nuclear waste that we have already digged up, we will have solved the fusion and superconductor problems. With fusion and superconductors we can build a new grid and manufacture synthetic fuels for transport.

I am sorry but you and many others are mislead by a political agenda. We are in a warming period afte little iceage that ended around 1850 so we have a slight warming and change of climate, yes.
