Thank you guys for this video!! Fantastic!!
Oil would always be there as long as it exists, because the militery needs oile especially for rockets and rock engines. Oil makes from it throw the process of petrochemical operation tower filtered to many fundamental components/metrals such as plastic and black stone that makes our modern streets but there thousands more things. There is things that can be changed but other manythings can not. Therefore, there would be always oil as long as it exists. Without oil there is no rockets and no planes and no effective efficient airforce and no stilights and no space operations. Plus it still would take a longtime before oil go dry. Not to mention alot of areas has not been scanned for oil yet. Oil and gas are fundamental resources. Not to mention oil is linked to USA currency value and power of influence.

This has been the main point for decades. The planet will simply recycle itself as it’s always done. The animals on the planet, though, including us, will be destroyed. We can survive it, we survived the last Ice Age. But it’s going to be a tough experience.
At this point the planet deserves not to have humanity.

@@ailediablo79 first of all, why u taking about the military so much, sure deference’s matter but that isn’t wha u should focus on. Also “rockets” aren’t made up of oil, they are nuclear, and if u mean rockets like space rockets then yeah they don’t use oil they use liquid hydrogen. Oil is a non-renewable resource that the future can’t depend on, if we keep using oil our world will become a wasteland, we need a new way to power our cars and other vehicles. And in fact we do, called electric cars, they don’t use gas they run on electricity. If we keep using oil and other toxic gases, climate change will rise and the world will go through horrible things, such as more intensified natural disasters. The list goes on and on and theirs no point in me telling u the effects of climate change, climate change is the biggest problem out generation will face and people like u are the ones that are making it even worse. Check ur facts before trying to tell people how the oil industry works.
We are taking tons of ecosystems with us. Turtles, alligators are all slated to go extinct.
@@ailediablo79 no actually. We need to shift away from oil. You could say the same about kerosene... And oil from whales. Our technology moved on.
"...otherwise we're all gonna fry..."
That is pretty much the point
This gave me a different perspective of the history, thanks for the amazing video.
It's unfair to talk of the 'developing' countries increasing contribution to Co2 levels without pointing out that the main reason they are increasing output is because they are now the ones manufacturing the West's products. In other words, Europe, Nth America etc are just farming out the damage they are doing, they are still the bigger problem.
True and a lot to be said about that (including the new Apartheid from sweat shops elsewhere to feed Europe & USA with goods). I'm in South Africa now and the G7 discussing this week with our president a 73 billion package to sub saharan Africa to quell fossil fuels here to and make Africa green
More like corporation move production overseas for more profit.
@@grishabelotserkovsky993 it is true tho...
1000% the bottom line is people want to pay as little as possible or the goods they consume. Because of this, they will always rely on developing nations to produce those goods for so little money and zero progress will be made.
Imperialism at its finest.
1. Plunder nations into poverty.
2. Pretend to fix the damage while finding new ways to plunder even more.
3. Give back a fraction of what was taken and call it aid, like you're doing them a favor.
4. Complain about spending anything to help plundered nations and blame them for their poverty.
5. Remember that none of these steps was "Stop plundering"
6. Put out documenteries suggesting there is still hope

Ok
As a Nigerian, I can tell you that although there’s currently a lot of rhetoric about net zero, the reality on ground points to very little if any intentions of cutting down on carbon emissions in the near future, and the argument is basically around the unfairness of the developed world asking this of us just when we’re beginning to get our act together having not too long ago come out of the doldrums of colonialism followed by military dictatorships, wars and political instability.
Nigeria is a wonderful country. I hope it works out its problems
The Nigerian people and country are great and they do deserve reparations and help from the former colonialist states to develop adequately and in a lower carbon fashion - net zero and negative carbon are jobs for the top 10 economies
If Nigeria(and Africa) don't leapfrog there will be no Nigeria in the future.
Sadly i don't see a huge shift in policy any time soon. I live in Norway and work in the oil industri where new permits for exploration is still beeing handed out. Even with the newly election switching away from the conservative side, non of the "green" parties did particular good. The facts about the harm has been known for a long time now, and i hope oil producing countries like my own will take their responsibility and use some of its wealth to develop new and cheep green energy sources.
It will come from the demand side. You cannot expect a petroleum company to stop producing petroleum, if there is demand for petroleum. And production will grow if demand grows. It is simple, cannot blame the producer for answering demand.
But there is a shift happening in demand, soon demand will start to fall and when it does producers will be forced to produce less.
The worry for countries like Nigeria, is are they prepared for a massive reduction of demand? Do they have anything else to replace the jobs and revenue when demand falls and it forced production to fall?
The stalling tactics of the global fossil fuel industry are starting to fail. But they have delayed it so long instead of a slow manageable decline it is going to be like ripping off a bandaid. There will be a lot of pain all of a sudden. (Instead of reducing growth 50 years ago, instead we are going to get a 50% drop in demand in less than a decade)
So the only organizations not hurt badly are the ones who are prepared for this reality. Diversified revenues, not investing in petroleum growth, investing in the new solutions.
Is Nigeria ready for falling petroleum demand?
Something overlooked in the video was the opportunity to talk about car dependency, which is the single greatest cause of oil dependency. In the U.S., transportation represents two thirds of all petroleum usage. If the entire world were to have a per capita car ownership equivalent to that of the U.S. (the most car-dependent large nation), it would result in over 6.4 billion vehicles on the road worldwide, and over 4.5 times increase over the current amount. Having all of those being powered by gasoline would be catastrophic to the environment, not to mention it would accelerate peak oil. There are serious concerns about whether there are enough viable mineral resources to create enough batteries to replace our current fleet of ICE vehicles with EVs, plus mining for the required materials poses environmental and human rights issues of its own.
The only workaround to these issues is to move past the notion of widespread car ownership. We have to be smart with how we design and re-develop our cities in the future, especially as the world continues to urbanize. Cities of the future need to avoid being like the resource-hungry, financially-insolvent urban sprawl that's sadly endemic in North America.
The way we've designed cities for the past 70 years makes it to where most people have to own their own vehicle just to function in society. There are no real alternatives to the automobile in most American and Canadian cities, as walking and cycling are often dangerous and lack suitable infrastructure to support it, and transit is usually woefully inadequate and underfunded. Our cities need to have suitably high population density and focus on mixed-use, transit-oriented development. Cities absolutely need to be built to where the preferred means of travel should be walking, cycling, or mass transit, with cars being dead last.
We need to stop prioritizing individual vehicle ownership and start prioritizing better alternatives. We need to stop building massive freeways and start investing in better, more affordable, more expansive transit. Car dependency is simply unsustainable in the long run. There is no excuse why we can't have cities designed to where most of what people need or want is within walking or cycling distance, and that if those aren't options that there's a reliable, safe, and affordable transit option.
Smarter urban planning will benefit every nation on Earth and go a long way to breaking our dependence on limited resources.

There's never talk of rethinking and redesigning our cities to be less energy demanding. Such as, not having to use a car for daily needs aka being able to walk or take public transit. Sometimes less is more.

@@mixmasterf the earth won’t run out of oil anytime soon. There’s enough oil in Venezuela alone to keep us going for a long time. If we continued on our current path the sky would turn black before we would run out of oil. That doesn’t mean I’m with the idea of oil because we all want our energy to be clean, but as it stands now oil will be continued to be used for at least another 50 years.
What is the clean alternative? EV production emit 70% more pollution (source VW group). In most of the country electricity is produced using coal, oil, gas. And most the power grid are pretty enifficent, there is a lot of losses. Even in a ultra rich state like California. I do believe that EV would make thing much worse.
@@victorhl69 alot of tree huggers dont want to acknowledge that EV is actually making the world use more oil. Due to the inefficiences stated
@@giraffeman326 Venezuela has enough oil to meet world supply for only 9 years. That's not a 'long time' in my book.
Thank you for this, Vox.
I think city planning and transportation also play a role in our energy consumption. Too many people opt for private vehicle because cities and towns have been built for them, not the people. The reliance on private vehicles is further exacerbated by inferior public transit systems and induced demand for cars wrought on by too many road projects. If we were to address this part of the problem I think we would be able to reduce energy consumption significantly.
much of the country uses private vehicles as often there are few if any alternatives. perhaps you can get by if you right in the middle of a city but many of us do not.
Very true. Poor urban planning, urban sprawl, nascent transit options, and good ol' greed make the problem all the worse.
@@makeitpay8241 It's almost like you didn't read the comment at all
@@l-_olvlo_-l it's almost like you didn't like anything i said.
Yes and if you plant a train seed and water it it will grow….
Electric cars arent going to fix it. We need walkable cities with good public transit and bike infrastructure. We need to dramatically improve our rail networks for both intercity travel and freight.
Fixing the ongoing climate crisis needs very much an “all the above” type of approach. This includes everything you mentioned but will have to include electric cars as well.
@@SputnikCrisis Nope electric cars require energy, which is mostly gained from non-renewables.
That's a nice idea, but it is simply not possible, nor desirable for all people to live within walking distance of their work. Plus, we have seen the health dangers of living in human storage units, where pathogens can spread rapidly. Individual vehicles will always be desirable, no matter how much marketing campaigns attempt to inculcate otherwise. Electric or hydrogen vehicles are our best bet to bridge the gap between improving the climate crisis, and meeting the needs for individual transportation.
Too many people are happy driving alone for us to completely give up on the car and switch to mass transit. Just look at how many single occupant cars go out on the roads in rush hour, compared to how many use the HOV lane. At least leaving an electric car (or hydrogen, or some future clean option) as a choice will make transitioning easier.
@@joermnyc that's not because they are happy driving, that's because there is no mass transit in most American suburbs. If you look at cities with good mass transit, like London and New York, it's obvious that people take it.

Ever heard of change? Yeah revolutionary. It seems like you can't comprehend nations ideas change.
you should be careful not to frame climate change as a political agenda by the rich western world to impoverish the developing world. Climate change is very real and is worsening everyday.
Worse yet - Europe and USA outsource their polluting industries to Asia, then blame Asia for not conforming to strict environmental standards. Pure hypocrisy.
Exactly I was thinking the same thing.
Because of bad regulations. How many oil spills have there been? We need higher restrictions.

“The end of oil explained” ….. they will produce more oil in 2030 than they do now. What a great video title!
We're going to reach peak oil eventually and then oil production will slow down.
Damilola Ogunbiyi spoke really well about these issues. Both African people were outstanding in their understanding of the problem and how infeasible it is to just expect developing countries to phase out fossil fuels, especially when they have nowhere near the same resources. Plus, the developing countries are not burning fossil fuels as a hobby, it’s for industrial use, of which the end consumers are worldwide and often these massive conglomerates are owned by developed countries. Really, there’s no use to point fingers at anyone, we all will suffer if we don’t work together. If the end of the world as we know it doesn’t bring humanity together, I don’t know what will. And honestly, I’m kinda really worried we might not make it. Maybe this is the Great Filter of civilisations: whether greed can outweigh morals.
I kinda think it is okay to point fingers. And as stated in the program it is exactly developing countries that will suffer more the effects of global warming.

They knew the whole time. And didn't care. Now we're dealing with the ramifications.
The profits are private but the costs are paid by the public. Until they get sued like the tobacco industry and opioid makers, the profit motive will govern their decisions.
Capitalism baby.
Capitalism in a nutshell.
Private companies are always profit driven and will exploit at every step it can get away with. While it is easy to just say capitalism bad, but it is also important to not forget that it is more directly a failure of our system. Does not matter whether it is lobbying, latent response, or shortsightedness, failure of policymakers and legislators to adapt with reality and regulate private companies is what lead us to here.
Oh they cared. That's why they've waging a disinformation war and have been funding climate change deniers for well over 40 years. They still care even today because the deniers and corrupt politicians are still received dark money from the fossil fuel companies.

Excelente documentário! Seria incrível se fosse legendado para ser mostrado nos ambientes escolares aqui do Brasil, pois precisamos estender essa causa para o máximo de pessoas possível.
Now with only 1/2 of all the oil that was ever in the ground, we are burning through it at the astonishing rate of 2.1% per year. That leaves us only 47 years worth of oil if we continue at this rate and even less if it is used faster. And there just isn't really any other way right now to move around goods and people, to create the vast amounts of concrete and fertilizer the way we do other than with oil. Since most economies depend on these things to at least some extent if not completely, the world is in a really difficult situation.

Informative!
I highly appreciate how you mentioned biofuels as one of the solutions. A lot of people underestimate how much ships and planes pollute. As well as that, a car that ran on 100% biofuel is much more environmentally-friendly than one that runs on 100% electricity. That's because their emissions would be solely dependent on their production methods (lithium batteries in particular). Biofuels/efuels are likely gonna be the future for most forms of transportation.
Bio fuels pollute 45% less than fossil fuels, its simply not good enough. Not to mention that making biofuels is 30% efficient, hydrogen is 45% efficient and electricity from the grid is 83% efficient. So this means If you drive a Tesla for 15,000 kilometres it will be more environmentally positive than bio fuels, and that’s with today’s grid. Boom.
What happens now is that ships switch fuel sources once they leave the coast then switch back before reaching another port as oil is still the best and cheapest source; it's kinda funny watching them go through thus long process of switching but also shows the complete flaws with the thinking of ppl who impose these nonsensical rules

@@tauceti8060 in a 1000 years it will fix itself ,earth has survived much bigger things than climate change.
@@tauceti8060 Who “took care of the planet” before we arrived? Our planet is approximately 4 billion years old. We’ve been burning carbon intensively for less than 300 years. Think about it.
@@kensurrency2564 Our planet has seen much worse that what we could ever create.
Love Ethan Hawke's narration.
Was that Ethan Hawke? I missed that.
@@stevechance150 yup it is at opening credit. 2:20
He gained some street credit with me too! 😄
17:25 , it's probably more cost efficient for the 1st world to subsidise installing solar in the 3rd world than to retrofit their existing power infrastructure,
this'd prevent future emissions,
Honest reporting much appreciated from Africa 👏
Thank you Vox for running this series on the wide-ranging effects the climate crisis will bring on us. Please keep it up.
Love the Explained series on Netflix and it's great you are sharing some on RUclips as well!
this was eye-opening , and scary :S. thanks for making this content
Very informative. Learned a lot. I hope change is coming
It’s unbelievable how the UK and their “queen” did all that damage to different countries around the world
Veiled and throughly hindered truth by means of multiple excuses which is related to all the “developed” countries.
Even though we live under the same sky and breathe the same air.
What damage? The UK discovered oil and industrailized, how is this their fault though? The harms were unknown and the benefits were massive, without the uk and fossile fuel you would not be writing this comment. Nowadays the UK is doing everything to stop emmisions, and you still have to hate on them, why? Your just mad that they were able to discover and industrialize before you.
Somebody tell that man from Nigeria that the UK and oil industry's didn't destroyed their country. They did it themselves thru massive corruption and poor management.

you were born from those circumstances. you should be thankful
The explanation of the tube experiment at the beginning especially visually was extremely good
Excellent analysis and an important awareness report about global warming for all developed countries around the world.
Very very interesting and revealing.
I’m reading a book called, “Turning Oil Into Salt.” I recommend it if you’re interested in this topic.
Thank you!
Thank you
Thank You
will do! thank you for the recommendation
Thank you 🧂🧂🧂🧂🛢🛢🛢🛢⛽🛵

I’m blown away at what I learned in this video. Utterly shocked in some ways. Thank you to all who worked on this piece. 🙏
Thank you so much.......a very thoughtful essay.
6:20 "[Oil has] pulled millions of people out of poverty." While this might be true the question is why were they in poverty? And it was not from lack of oil.
There's a billion reasons people can be in poverty.
Most of us were living near poverty centuries ago. It’s human history. Very slow progress.
I missed the part where the use of oil actually ends…
It got on my nerve when the lady was suggesting 'us' developed nations and 'they' developing nations.
Hope she do know that these so called developed nations plunged, looted and wrecked havoc in creating the poor nations of today.
Destiny has played the justice card so now the rich has to pay the poor for their survival.
?? It actually sounds fair when she was referring "us" ..cause she was trying to make a point of who the blame really falls to...
And distincts the different area of the world
She is literally telling the developed world to stop their hypocrisy. The developing may have looted but they still aren't the greatest emitters of carbon
Thank you for this Vox.
30 seconds into the video and I'm already invested.
I am so glad that there are climate scientists out there... Makes me believe we are serious enough to bring the change. Thank you Vox.
The "change" you speak of causes more harm then good
Very concise and well elucidated, this can make good learning material on energy and climate change for schools...
The nostalgic intro music brings back memories
Note: At 6:02, the trucks shown are Krupp Potenz truck of wehrmacht of ww2 era.
There will never be an end to oil. Everything you own has been made by a byproduct of petroleum.
"me and my companions have a disease in hearts, and oil is the only cure"
Times are changing, but they're the same problems. I feel honored as a young person to take on this generation's challenges.
Unlike boomers who just kicked the can.
What a nice mindset! A lot of other people are still passing the blame to someone else, but to actually be ready to face the challenges is commendable! I wish you luck.
I share your perspective!
Wow, how refreshing to hear your comment. Personally, I am ashamed to be the generation that allowed this to happen. Good on you!
I knew this in 1976 and took no action to stop it.
Please continue to smile in the face of adversity until it surrenders!
It is not the knowledge to fix this that is lacking.
It is the collective will to do the right thing that is in short supply.
Yeah, unless you got money to spare you ain't helping
In Britain, the cost of Electricity has increased 30 times what it was a year ago. Britain will probably re-open Coal Power Stations, or else people will freeze to death this winter. The price of Oil has increased, but we are past Peak Oil, so outputs will continue to decline.
Oil peaked in 2005 ?
great content
Wow, I'm so happy seeing Nnimmo Bassey doing a documentary with Vox and Netflix. I see him in church every Sunday here in Nigeria.
He is a wise man. I’d love to be able to talk to him.
It's a shame the class issues weren't mentioned.
this video is about developed countries and in development. talking about class issues is embodied in them
@@agusgamalerio9038 and classes within the both types of nations
I'm glad you do comedies also.
Can't wait to get all the facts and everything 100%. Just have to start the journey
