@@LaserBreadAt this point in time it's way too inefficient the amount of finite resources to mine the materials for the battery and the added weight required to move the vehicle make it not much better than burning oil.

As a business owner that uses diesel powered machinery there currently is no viable alternative to diesel. What do they want me to do lay 6 people off with families and go bust
Yup, just like what happened in my capital city Oslo. They removed parking spots besides businesses, a few days later they announced that they would have to discontinue the city store due to lack of parking spots for logistics, one company said directly to the local news that 6 people will be fired because of this and people will need to go outside the city visit there other stores. Environmentalists is hard to understand, they want a better future for our children, yet all they do is take away workplaces.
If you have done your research and there is no viable alternative, you've done your due diligence. The next step would be for the legislation to allow if not invite companies that can supply an alternative into your local market. Better still would be to incentivize such businesses to open or create facilities locally, which will not only provide the alternative but also provide sustainable local jobs.
@@bryansmith1404 It depends on location and demands. You can't just create a ton of businesses in an area with little to no demand. There's also distance to think about, if you have a specialized store on every corner, it won't be worth it, since not everyone will be buying something special all the time, and there's logistics businesses, creating outposts or offices closer together will reduce the area each has to cover, thus increasing the efficiency, but who are they serving, and does the demand live up to what they deliver? It costs to start up a new business or outpost, and if the demand isn't there, then it's not worth it to create more of those businesses or outposts simply because it's not profitable. Please give an example of a "viable alternative" next time, instead of just stating a statement with nothing to back it up, thanks.

It all comes down to cost. The general public can't afford to spend thousands on electric vehicles etc. Plastics are a byproduct of oil. What is the alternatives? The truth is, the world could collaps without oil and it takes money to change. Money that many people dont have to change to alternatives
@@johnbrennan7175 this year or next is when electric cars will reach parity in cost with their gas counterparts for new vehicles so that won't be the case much longer. And that is their goal, to cause fuel shortages at gas stations and general disruption to make people listen and demand more climate action from the government. But yes I agree it's about cost. So the government should raise the carbon fee and dividend if they actually want to reduce oil consumption. This would put money from the tax back into people's pockets. Or they could phase in the mandates for zero emission vehicles more quickly. You're saying they're uneducated but their cause is real, and important, and disruption is their goal
Mate a single tanker is not effecting the oil prices that is total nonsense and vastly oversimplifies not just how markets work but specifically oil. A tanker is a literal drop in the ocean its like saying blocking a single truck of tomatoes will increase tomato prices across that region. It wont its not effecting the actual price but instead the ability to transport (on a tiny and brief scale/timeline) and then just like they have been doing for petrol prices for decades will use literally anything as an excuse to charge more then resist lowering the price again until absolutely forced to do so. It isnt that the prices went up but instead greedy companies see a opening to increase profits. Anyone who tells you a single tanker is that important in the supply chain is lying!
Even better, they realise that electricity is made from oil and coal in their region, they protest near the powerplants, blocking workers from going to work, public services shuts off their power, they freeze, end of story.

I am not talking from a view of knowledge in this area but it will take us a long time to just stop using oil. I understand that there are a lot of ramifications when oil is used. However, currently we just don’t have a suitable alternative. Sadly, when we do they are just too expensive. Money and time needs to be spend carrying out research to find suitable alternatives which will not take a long time to roll out and at an affordable cost. A lot of thing that we use on a daily basis need oil. If we just suddenly stop it it will impact the lives of billions all over the world. However I wish we did not have such a huge dependence on oil. It is sadly a necessary evil for the foreseeable time. Or am I totally wrong in thinking like this?
I think you are completely right. I agree with what you've said, I know and understand that there are alternatives but it is, as you've said, too expensive. We need to wait for it to become a usual commodity before we could implement these more drastic changes.
Thank you for saying something i've waited all my life to figure out. *always feel a small sense of cosmic justice when I hear someone who was a tyrant on the schoolyard is struggling with reality.
@@SStupendous Thats not what they are asking for though,its just that the government is not transitioning and investing in alternatives quickly enough and is continuing with their policy of new oil and gas..maybe this message is not coming across clear enough
We can start with going back to glass bottles. Not having almost everything made thousands of miles away, but within your country or neighboring countries, which cuts down shipping fuel usage. Like it used to be 50 years ago. Also office jobs should all be remote, which cuts down greatly on use of gasoline. We saw during pandemic lockdowns how the air started being cleaner.
Just stop oil = disaster. Don’t get me wrong, I do disagree on use of oil. Instead of coming together to protest and harass. Start a company that creates energy without using oil. Do something useful with your time
Too all those people who think that protest is fine but direct action isn't, please explain a better way of stopping an oncoming climate catastrophe, because protesting hasn't worked.
Over 300 climate activists are murdered or dissapear in South America every year while trying to stop the Amazon Rainforest deforestation and selling of the land. All while peacefully protesting. Peaceful protest is not working.
@@Robert-cu9bm And that has successfully led us to cut emissions to a level where we won't have catastrophic climate change has it? No, of course it hasn't. That is incredibly naive.
'Risking a heavy fine', no. As long as these groups are useful to the government and the establishment press, they won't suffer too much inconvenience.
Just to let you know that was very much not the plan, we got pinned down by a helicopter and 2 drones so the primary approach on foot got scuppered. McDonald’s ended up being the only meeting point open at 3 am that didn’t look too weird having that number of people milling around. Far from ideal, but you work with what you’ve got x
@@talkstrainings6169 Your channel is really new, and there's nothing to verify the idea you were here... can you prove this in any way? Any veracity to show?
Do these people know the amount of thing we use oil for all if the things we make that are made using oil like rubber tires, plastic and some of the parts in silicone chips in our computers and other smart devices.
If they want to stop oil, why are they not collaborating to find out alternatives through research and development and then promoting and advertising a healthier, safer and better alternative as a group of protestors, instead of harassing the general public and wasting time.
It’s funny to me they talking about insulation and oils etc yet they seem to be using a lot themselves such as the lady in the house unless her whole house is solar powered or something hunny you using oils minerals etc to heat ur house to put the lights on
Oil isn't an inherent characteristic of a human being being oppressed by bigoted jerks. Oil is ITSELF required to create the technology necessary to end its use, and to stop global warming. If it suddenly wasn't available the world would no longer have the luxury of excess resources to deploy on long term change, nor the will to do so.
The middle class feels entitled to cheap petrol, cheap air travel, and cheap meat. Politicians won't implement climate action policies until they think the majority is willing to change their lifestyle.
Unfortunately, I think you're right, but like that oil tanker driver in the video, these types of protest hit the working classes attempting to do their jobs. It's not having any impact on the families flying away to their holiday homes in Tuscany. It's been proven that the wealthiest use a disproportionately large percentage of all the carbon across the planet. I'd be more sympathetic if those people were the targets rather than ordinary people just trying to make a living. Whilst I also accept that unless there's radical changes, everybody is going to be negatively affected by a massive amount. And like most things, the poorest across the planet will be hit the hardest.
Why should the middle class give up the highest standard of living humanity has yet known? Especially when hydraulic fracturing means there are hundreds of years of oil and gas in the ground. We should use these to boostrap civilization to fission and fusion energy, but we shouldn't strangle our energy supply now.
There's plenty of alternatives to oil. Electric cars. Hydrogen planes. Bio-plastics. The solutions exist, but money and politics are actively blocking change out dragging their heels. Edit - transition to nuclear and renewables for the electricity
where does the electricity come from to power these electric car (and if you say wind and solar my next question is how do you charge then on a windless evening?). And that’s before to start rapeing Africa of it cobalt to produce the batteries. How do you make hydrogen and store it (i’m know quite a bit about this and am in favour with the use of wind power. Problem is you’re still replying on the oil and gas companies in a different way)? Do know who did the most for the environment in recent years, the Chinese government and how they handed covid, stopped all unnecessary travel to and from work or country to country travel.
@@sblahful And the oil that lubricates the gears in those cars? How about the diesel used to dig up the ore for the raw materials?. Or the oil in the transformers on the electricity grid? Even the coal in the steel?. Please learn how the REAL world actually works.
I remember hearing of a time when elite , rich ,out of touch snobs controlled everything. While mocking the peasants. That led to the invention of the guillotine .
I blame the universities and media for pushing such nonsensical info. If you are going to fight something fight to stop geoengineering which should be your main target
I am not an extremist. But I wonder how they will make sure that people and goods keeps traveling the world As it is the most vital link our humanity keeps thriving. Cheers from France
See this is better than insulating oil in my opinion. Disrupting and attacking the problem, doing protests like the one at the footy match, that arent severely inconveniencing to any important needs of the general public. Buuut, is this being talked about as much. Who knows
Who are these “US philanthropists” the video talks about? This should be further questioned. They don’t get 25 to 35 year old people taking part as they’re working.
The problem is the government for allowing this to occur with no consequences here in the States that would not fly they treat these people like children
Hey, it was very much not the plan, we got pinned down by a helicopter and 2 drones, so the original meeting point had to change and McDonald’s is the only place open at 3am around those parts. Believe me, far from ideal, but I’ve shut down McDonalds entire distribution network twice, so I think it balances out ;) x
What I find far more alarming than oil and gas is the sky rocketing spike in population growth within the couple of centuries in which global warming has a close correlation. Followed by placing far more pressure on every single resource you can think of. Just 200 years ago, the total global population was just approximately 1 billion. Today its 8 billion. And by the end of this century, the population could easily reach 11 billion. I would love to inform JSO but unable to leave a message on their website. I wonder why?
@Jay Dee you think young people don't talk to one another? The youth take their own actions. If you know anything about Just Stop Oil you would know that.
Instead of disrupting traffice why cant they come up with some viable solutions or alternatives to oil that could be put in place over time? And send these solutions and alternatives to the powers that be to see if they can be implimented.

oh so it s impossible to just stop oil ....
We can start with going back to glass bottles. Not having almost everything made thousands of miles away, but within your country or neighboring countries, which cuts down shipping fuel usage. Like it used to be 50 years ago. Also office jobs should all be remote, which cuts down greatly on use of gasoline. We saw during pandemic lockdowns how the air started being cleaner.
Just stop oil = disaster. Don’t get me wrong, I do disagree on use of oil.
Instead of coming together to protest and harass. Start a company that creates energy without using oil. Do something useful with your time
Why do you agree? Show your evidence. (claiming ‘experts said so’ is not evidence btw).
All of a sudden a guy became sick & died after creating a car that runs on water…. Instead of oil. Weird isn’t it??
Too all those people who think that protest is fine but direct action isn't, please explain a better way of stopping an oncoming climate catastrophe, because protesting hasn't worked.
Over 300 climate activists are murdered or dissapear in South America every year while trying to stop the Amazon Rainforest deforestation and selling of the land. All while peacefully protesting. Peaceful protest is not working.
straight up
Yup let's start this up in the USA gotta make the government listen I'm going off the grid soon I have nothing to lose but besides our valuable earth.
Voting!
@@Robert-cu9bm And that has successfully led us to cut emissions to a level where we won't have catastrophic climate change has it? No, of course it hasn't. That is incredibly naive.
Wow! You guys are so into yourselves!
'Risking a heavy fine', no. As long as these groups are useful to the government and the establishment press, they won't suffer too much inconvenience.
If theres no more oil then most machinery will cease to work after a while
That's a really basic understanding of it, but yeah, and many more issues.
One message: Just stop oil
*proceeds to leave macdonalds*
In a van!
Just to let you know that was very much not the plan, we got pinned down by a helicopter and 2 drones so the primary approach on foot got scuppered. McDonald’s ended up being the only meeting point open at 3 am that didn’t look too weird having that number of people milling around. Far from ideal, but you work with what you’ve got x
@@talkstrainings6169 excuses
@@talkstrainings6169 that doesn’t explain your use of the van and use of fossil fuels.
@@talkstrainings6169 Your channel is really new, and there's nothing to verify the idea you were here... can you prove this in any way? Any veracity to show?
Wouldn't it be awful if one of these tanker drivers accidently lost control of his vehicle and plowed through a bunch of these "protestors".
Nahhh everything have consequences. I feel sorry for the truck driver though
Do these people know the amount of thing we use oil for all if the things we make that are made using oil like rubber tires, plastic and some of the parts in silicone chips in our computers and other smart devices.
If they want to stop oil, why are they not collaborating to find out alternatives through research and development and then promoting and advertising a healthier, safer and better alternative as a group of protestors, instead of harassing the general public and wasting time.
It’s funny to me they talking about insulation and oils etc yet they seem to be using a lot themselves such as the lady in the house unless her whole house is solar powered or something hunny you using oils minerals etc to heat ur house to put the lights on
There is no way we can stop 100percent of the oil, thats fantasy
Exactly these people live in fantasy worlds, the world doesn’t work that way
Okay. It sure can be *_significantly_* cut down.
@@LaserBread Agreed
They are the most hated group in the nation.
its boris and his big business friends that are the criminals
The great thing about convincing yourself you're right is you only ever have to think one thing. It's interlectual cowardice.
I wonder how many of these people drive cars.
Every social change has to be obstructive or violent. They're no different than fighting for the rights of women, LGBT people, race, disability...
Or the black shirts, the communists and so on
Oil isn't an inherent characteristic of a human being being oppressed by bigoted jerks.
Oil is ITSELF required to create the technology necessary to end its use, and to stop global warming. If it suddenly wasn't available the world would no longer have the luxury of excess resources to deploy on long term change, nor the will to do so.
No
trying to force political change through the threat of violence is literally the definition of terrorism.
Violent disabled people
The middle class feels entitled to cheap petrol, cheap air travel, and cheap meat. Politicians won't implement climate action policies until they think the majority is willing to change their lifestyle.
Unfortunately, I think you're right, but like that oil tanker driver in the video, these types of protest hit the working classes attempting to do their jobs. It's not having any impact on the families flying away to their holiday homes in Tuscany. It's been proven that the wealthiest use a disproportionately large percentage of all the carbon across the planet. I'd be more sympathetic if those people were the targets rather than ordinary people just trying to make a living. Whilst I also accept that unless there's radical changes, everybody is going to be negatively affected by a massive amount. And like most things, the poorest across the planet will be hit the hardest.
Why should the middle class give up the highest standard of living humanity has yet known? Especially when hydraulic fracturing means there are hundreds of years of oil and gas in the ground. We should use these to boostrap civilization to fission and fusion energy, but we shouldn't strangle our energy supply now.
😂 ok KAREN
the middle class feel entitled to take everyone else's cars away you mean
You can't do it that way, it doesn't work. You have to force change down from the top
They are going to loose their minds when they figure out how lithium ion batteries are mined 🤯
“Just stop oil” but they don’t come up with an alternative or a solution to it. And they wonder why the general public aren’t on their side
There's plenty of alternatives to oil. Electric cars. Hydrogen planes. Bio-plastics. The solutions exist, but money and politics are actively blocking change out dragging their heels.
Edit - transition to nuclear and renewables for the electricity
where does the electricity come from to power these electric car (and if you say wind and solar my next question is how do you charge then on a windless evening?). And that’s before to start rapeing Africa of it cobalt to produce the batteries. How do you make hydrogen and store it (i’m know quite a bit about this and am in favour with the use of wind power. Problem is you’re still replying on the oil and gas companies in a different way)? Do know who did the most for the environment in recent years, the Chinese government and how they handed covid, stopped all unnecessary travel to and from work or country to country travel.
@@sblahful
And the oil that lubricates the gears in those cars?
How about the diesel used to dig up the ore for the raw materials?.
Or the oil in the transformers on the electricity grid?
Even the coal in the steel?.
Please learn how the REAL world actually works.
Stop oil by driving in an automobile
Thank you for this great documentary.
I remember hearing of a time when elite , rich ,out of touch snobs controlled everything. While mocking the peasants. That led to the invention of the guillotine .
And they drive to every protest. In a car.running on oil.oh....the irony.
Nah, you could just say "how was that banner made?" ( Or clothes )
@@Carlium What about the products they routinely use each day? Exactly!
"You want to change society, yet you live in the society - hypocrite"
Everytime i hear of their activities i buy a liter of gasoline to dump in the sea.
This is What Happens When you Give people Too Much Freedom
Are you serious? The more freedom the better. You want suppression?
They're conservatives. Naturally they want less freedom.
@@MICKEYISLOWDif some people lack common sense (like those activists) - then yes.
@Andy Huckle what are you talking about ??
Don't look up
Why not protest in Moscow or Beijing
Least their not sat at home eating crisps and watching love Island. Hope for the future...
But I like crisps 😔
shouting "stop oil" but still driving cars, aren't we ?
Can i ask,do all of these people lead by example and do not own cars,motorcycles or use any form of public transport?
Or wear any clothing produced by, or from oil.
Dear liberals,
You hate the system, yet you are forced to participate in it.
Curious.
Sorry, your claims of so-called "hypocrisy" are invalid.
Well if we started throwing these climate activists into furnaces we could save a lot of oil , LOL !
👏👏👏
I blame the universities and media for pushing such nonsensical info. If you are going to fight something fight to stop geoengineering which should be your main target
Meets in McDonalds..... i am saying nothing
Keep pumping oil
idk about you guys but going onto a live f1 track when cars are going 150+mph isnt the smartest.
The irony of their clothing and signage being petroleum based is absolutely not lost on me. The tone-deafness and self righteousness is grotesque.
looks cold get the fire brigade out with the water cannons
They're not doing this for the children They're just trying to get their faces on screen and impress each other
When protesters scream "just stop oil" after having a greasy breakfast at McDonalds. 🤣🤣🤣
I am not an extremist. But I wonder how they will make sure that people and goods keeps traveling the world As it is the most vital link our humanity keeps thriving.
Cheers from France
I think most people agree with your sentiment but not your methods.
See this is better than insulating oil in my opinion. Disrupting and attacking the problem, doing protests like the one at the footy match, that arent severely inconveniencing to any important needs of the general public. Buuut, is this being talked about as much. Who knows
Just keep rolling on if they don’t go out of the way it’s their problem.
We are aware that Fossill Fuels are causing harm. BUT ,what is the alternative ? At the present there is no alternative.
Who are these “US philanthropists” the video talks about? This should be further questioned. They don’t get 25 to 35 year old people taking part as they’re working.
A common thread on the comments, “I’m all for transitioning.......but......not today.”
Correct response: THEN WHEN, MF!!! *_WHEN??!!?!_*
The problem is the government for allowing this to occur with no consequences here in the States that would not fly they treat these people like children
I would be banned for what I would have wanted to say.
"I would join a protest online, on social media" She is ready to do some harmless virtual signaling. :D
Very, Very Realistic Request to Expect the UK to Stop Using Oil.
Very Practical. Very Doable.
Clearly they Understand the Matter Really Well.
these ppl expect the world to run on the power of farts
I will quadruple my oil consumption out of spite.
They drive to a protest about oil. What a joke they are.
Many thing those people use coming from oil and gas industry! Fertilizer, mobile device etc!
These fools are absolute hypocrites .
Just keep driving they will move
Lol eating french fries hahahahaha
Climate activists chilling in McDonald's...
Hey, it was very much not the plan, we got pinned down by a helicopter and 2 drones, so the original meeting point had to change and McDonald’s is the only place open at 3am around those parts. Believe me, far from ideal, but I’ve shut down McDonalds entire distribution network twice, so I think it balances out ;) x
@@talkstrainings6169 Omg you’re so cool 🤭🤭 how about get a job 🤣
YOU CANT JUST STOP OIL!!!! Nearly all items made for the NHS / Medical are oil based.
Get the liquid manure truck from the farmer and then unleash the fire...
They make people want to use more oil, its having the reverse effect.
Lol. If this is in the US, the cops would just go BAM!!!!
I mean, they wouldn't really. Think about if it was India or Bulgaria they tried this at...
I feel the guardian is one sided story and not covering everyday people who's life is disrupted by this so called just stop oil.
dont even slow down, i bet they start scrabling out of the way
What I find far more alarming than oil and gas is the sky rocketing spike in population growth within the couple of centuries in which global warming has a close correlation. Followed by placing far more pressure on every single resource you can think of. Just 200 years ago, the total global population was just approximately 1 billion. Today its 8 billion. And by the end of this century, the population could easily reach 11 billion. I would love to inform JSO but unable to leave a message on their website. I wonder why?
Because that's not how the website has been set up.
And yes, both are noble goals.
The sheer arrogance of the older activists sending 2 young people to the Emirates stadium is awful
They literally said it's their own idea
Surprised they weren't beaten by the security forces
it was their own decision
@Jay Dee you think young people don't talk to one another?
The youth take their own actions. If you know anything about Just Stop Oil you would know that.
So we stop oil then what? Stop every human that facts or smokes
Instead of disrupting traffice why cant they come up with some viable solutions or alternatives to oil that could be put in place over time? And send these solutions and alternatives to the powers that be to see if they can be implimented.
Have these dictators stop to think what would happen to the world's economy if we stopped using oil.
bro if the world stops oil thre will not be no jobs nothing
