You can find out more from Professor Guy McPherson. He explains the predicament much better in a series of lectures given all over the world. It ain't pretty.
We only have the *theoretical* capability to solve these problems. We have the *theoretical* capability to build a Dyson sphere as well. Both are equally likely.
We don't control climate, we can't even predict it. The system is far FAR bigger than anything we have or can do presently. CO2 is a bit player, not remotely THE driver.

That's been said for 40 yrs for the same non-scientific 'reasons'. CO2 is a bit player in climate, not remotely THE driver. Medieval Warm period was 1.5C warmer than today and the coldest time in 10,000 yrs was late 1800's , when temp records began.
@@The-Wide-Angle Not the Medieval Warm period it wasn't -0.4C. NONE of it is because of CO2, that's the point. And what cause the 12C extreme swings in mere decades, only 12.5k yrs ago, Younger Dryass. How about the last 2.5M yrs of mostly devastating glacial maximums punctuated with these relatively brief inner glacial times? None of it's explained by CO2 but we've been extremely close to CO2 levels so low it would destroy the biosphere as we know it, during glacial maximums. Good case to be made that more CO2 is better than less, certainly better for plant life, crop yields and so on.
@Mrbfgray The middle ages warming was +0.4 °C, not +1.5. And you have only given several reasons more not to artificially induce the "extreme swing" that were natural in the past.
@@The-Wide-Angle The extreme low CO2 levels of recent millions of yrs have coincided with erratic devastating swings. There is no *reason* to expect more historic normalization of CO2 will make things worse. Life thrived at 7000ppm.

There is no good reason to expect the arbitrary low 300ppm is better than 600ppm, or 0.03% vs 0.06%. It's a trace gas that we can't live without and a major factor in increased crop yields over last half century.

Cooling the Polar Regions Wilson B. Goddard, Ph.D, Principal Research Engineer and Christine B. Goddard, M.A. Principal Environmental Planner Manager, Goddard and Goddard Engineering - Environmental Studies Abstract: A proposed geoengineering of Cirrus/contrail clouds by commercial aviation during polar flights using a Welsbach material added to their jet fuel to cool the Arctic is outlined. Aluminum oxide is discussed as an inexpensive spectral shifting Welsbach material. The geophysical implication, if nothing is done, is allowing continued Arctic global warming which is moving the northern hemisphere toward unknown adverse weather phenomena adversely affecting societies and agriculture. The proposed polar cooling program can move us back toward the cold geophysical Arctic which we understand and to which we have adapted.

Renewables is not what we should be aiming for. Bio-fuels, as opposed to fossil fuels, are renewable. We want emission-free fuels, basically electricity from solar, wind, and batteries charged with solar and wind. We need to STOP BURNING THINGS including wood in woodstoves, ethanol, etc.
Whilst there are health considerations with some burning, there's no inherent problem with burning wood sustainably (e.g. SRC) as the carbon that it's releasing is coming from the biosphere. The problem is burning carbon that was otherwise locked up in the lithosphere - i.e. fossil fuels.
Listened to initial intro about energy ..some good words but... How can anyone who is unbiased talk about the energy side of this problem without mentioning the most powerfull technology known to man ( I mean literally the most powerfull in energy density terms by a huge margin) it is established as cost effective ( when done at scale) and requires the least resources and environmental impact per twhr than any other energy source.

The data seems to support that there is more than just CO2 at play in the climate. This could easily and cheaply proven with telescopes from earth as were used to collect some of the original atmospheric tsunami on Venus data. It could also prove the existence of dark matter in the solar system and if not physicists would need to come up with a better explanation for what is happening throughout the solar system. Dark matter phase transitions could be a primary climate driver. If the solar system passes through an area of higher liquid dark matter content the planets cores would all receive more heat due to increased phase transitions thus heating the earth from the inside out. Heating of the planet from the inside out would result in : Increased ground temperatures Increased sea temperatures Increased nighttime temperatures Increased seismic activity Increased earthquakes We are currently passing through the S1 dark Matter stream Dec 12 2016 Venus Mercury alignment tsunami rotation slowed Dec1 2018 Venus Mercury alignment tsunami rotation slowed June 3 18:00 2020 +0 29 North Venus Earth conjunction VENUS TSUNAMI facing the Earth day 1 July 2020 Siberian heatwave and Antarctica temperature spike Jan 9 01:00 2022 +4 51 North Venus Earth conjunction VENUS TSUNAMI facing the Earth and the planets were slightly closer than the last conjunction 585 days March 18 2022 Concordia Station spiked 39 C degrees due to unusual air patterns near Australia North Pole regions hit 30C above normal Aug 13 11:00 2023 -7 41 south Venus Earth conjunction VENUS TSUNAMI was past the outward deflection and on its way back 1166 days also Venus was south of the orbital plane Oct 28 2023 I predicted a major heat release in the Arctic and Antarctic due to combined tidal affects on the dark matter sphere around the sun in combination with the movement of the barycentre of the Earths location. VENUS TSUNAMI was facing the side and the distance between the planets was further and there was no online data from Concordia. DATES TO WATCH for tsunami rotation ?? Pre and post rotation rates are needed Jan 16-25. 2024 Mercury Venus alignment Mar 07-20 2024 Mercury Jupiter alignment Venus Mars alignment Apr 11-18 2024 Mercury Earth alignment Jupiter Uranus alignment May 20-28 Venus Jupiter Uranus alignment Mercury Mars Saturn ? Neptune ? June 15-23 Mercury Venus alignment Venus atmospheric temperatures from 2009-2017 also were higher after conjunctions Venus atmospheric rotation takes 4 days - atmospheric tsunami takes on average 5 (4.9?) days to circle Venus since 1986 this could be caused by an offset dark mater sphere as a result of wobble induced by overflow of LDM every 5 days when the sphere is closest to the sun. This departing kick is what keeps the offset between Venus and its dark matter sphere which then accumulates LDM for 5 more days. The interval from the data I found varies from 4-6 days the 6 day stretch was after the 2022 conjunction which may have depleted its dark matter reserves resulting in a slower tsunami rotation. The clouds at that level take 5.7 days to circle the planet (tsunami speed = 328 kph) NASA issued a climate change warning for Mars after Mariner 9 (icecaps melting) Neptune has been heating up since 2018
"The data seems to support that there is more than just CO2 at play in the climate." No, what the data clearly shows is that our emissions caused almost all recent global warming... ~1.07 degrees C worth of it.
Saturn circumpolar lobes are increasing. What about Uranus. It's the only planet rotating 90°s from the planetary plane. Day and night is impossible for human mind to imagine. Uranus atmospheric dynamics would be a 'test lab comparitor' for dark matter theories, ... if there is dark matter.
It’s a crying shame that we don’t focus on CONSERVING energy. Imagine the amount of CO2 we could save instantly for free if we all moved the thermostat 1 degree towards uncomfortable?
Mine is at 14 celcius and has been since 2021/22. I turn it up briefly during december and jan while i have a bath, get dry and into clean clothes and then switch back to 14 celcius
@@ThisIsToolman not amongst those of us struggling with the cost of living. As much as i want the world to triumph over fossil fuels etc, it was money which was the ultimate gamechanger for me. sure, i wasnt crazy with my heating, albeit being disabled n thus stationary did mean i prob used 18-20 24/7 weather dependant pre-covid when prices were reasonable. as far as i was concerned, i cant afford heat pump, social housing thus no agency anyway, so at least my elec was renewable even if my gas is not.

According to Nasa/Sandia Labs, in 1982, Magma Energy can supply world energy demand ten times over carbon free forever, plus provide surplus energy to desalinate, irrigate, recycle and capture carbon. "The estimated size of the U.S. resource (50,000 to 500,000 quads) suggests a considerable potential impact on future power generation. In a previous seven-year study, we concluded that there are no insurmountable barriers that would invalidate the magma energy concept." Global energy demand today is only 600 quads. The positive, scientifically possible solution spoken of at the beginning does not imply a limits to growth approach, talk of using less energy, of making carbon savings, and so on. We should be aiming for sustainable prosperity based on clean energy abundance. Magma Energy is a massive source of constant high grade heat energy, easily converted to base load electricity and clean burning hydrogen fuel, more than sufficient to replace fossil fuels. Wind and solar will not meet current global energy demand, less yet increased energy demand into the future; according to the IEA likely to increase 50% over the next 30 years. Fossil fuels will meet that increased demand unless there is a truly adequate alternative.
You can count it any old way, but I reckon things are doomed for about 500 years. Some humans should survive, so we'll see if they learned anything. Good luck!
I wouldn't worry too muchvabout it. What goes up must come down. About 50 years of soil, 45 yrs of oil left, 130 yrs of coal left, 30 yrs of Cu, etc...Consider that 1 C inc over the growth period reduces crop yields by 10%. In a 3 C world land temps over our grain belts are going to be 4-6 C higher during the growth season. So it all comes to an end this century and billions die. What goes up must come down. This one off growth spurt has reached a peak...we are on the way down.
Climate change makes me think of the Fermi Paradox, which questions why-- given the size and age of the universe-- we haven't seen any sign of any other life out there. One possibility is that all civilizations destroy themselves before achieving interstellar travel. I wonder if we are about to be an example of that. Another possibility is that we are actually alone. Life is just that special and rare and unique. Life has to pass through "Great Filters" that can destroy it, and often doesn't. I wonder if this is ours.
@@simonpannett8810 Precision fermentation has a lot of promise. A variety of solutions have been around for decades and nothing substantial has been accomplished. The reason for this is fairly obvious. Current corporate stakeholders and their sycophantic politicos do not want to change the system that they profit from. The common person is also swamped with propaganda and conflicting info and because of daily chores has little time anyway to act. Easier if you just accept the inevitable. Humans are clever but not wise. It is our destiny to destroy what is left of the biosphere in the next few decades.

Exactly, are WE going to give up our phones? That's the issue, hard isn't it. And it's not like one single person suffering is going to make a difference.
@@atillathehungry3145 You don't understand the time lag of co2 emissions. It's about 30 years. All of the IPCC modeled predictions, when compared to the latest real data (real results), have been shown to be childishly optimistic. Things are far worse than ever predicted and are about to get rapidly worse in the very near future. We are about to learn what exponential climate change looks like. Wake the hell up, man. When COP28 is being run by oil barons and all the environmental scientists are screaming that we will likely go extinct - and you'll live to see it if you're below the age of 50, there might be something... a little awry.
iv'e been watching a guy with the surname shapiro. His channel focuses heavily on AI. In short, within 5yrs the improvements in AI will be exponential. AI is likely to help us solve the climate crisis, to help us negotiate n find solutions that work for everyone.
I agree that technology needs to develop, however since there is no guarantee that three hundred more years around the sun will come to pass. For the potential to be successful, we need to start thinking that we are going to survive the universe and all technology developments and social structures need to revolve around that idea. Anyway the planet is not going to last forever. Think bigger. Our biggest challenge right now is to first outlive the existence of the solar system. The science tells us that solar systems come and go in a galaxy. The climate, we have to adapt and thats it.
If we dont solve the climate and environmental destruction we are causing, societal structures will collapse at the very least, which means we wont have the structures in place to become an inter-planetary species. Fermi paradox^
Completely irrational. We should ignore our present problem but should be concerned that that planet wont be habitable in 500 million years? 500 million years ago we were a fish. The death of the solar system is not a problem for our species.
He talked about everything but the elephant in the room, population. Until we tackle our growing population nothing else matters as pop growth will outstrip all efficiency gains and renewable energy inputs. Be it mass immigration to energy intensive western countries or global pop growth at 200,000+ daily.
Have you taken a look at population demographic charts? The majority of countries have not been meeting replacement levels for quite some time. Once the boomers start dying off due to old age, our population will naturally be shrinking. Also, there is a trend among millenials and younger generations to not have children due to climate already and many people arent having children due to finances as well. Without immigration, europe, uk and usa would have declined badly due to lack of workers. We are despite immigration at risk when millenials and younger reach retirement. When state pensions were created, there were 8-10 workers supporting each pensioner. We now have 4-6 workers supporting each pensioner today. It will be worse than that in 35 years when i retire with rumours that there will be no state pension , or that what it will be frozen such that it at best will be a top-up. This is why the uk gov made workplaces do pensions again in 2012, because people of my generation wont be able to rely on the state pension
I am aware of the demographics, of western countries declining in pop from low birth rates. If gov retirement programs had been managed properly there would be plenty of money to deal with fewer workers vs retirees. My issue is a growing population and the environmental consequences. If immigration to western countries was just maintaining pop numbers, ok. That is not the case, we have mass immigration greatly growing western populations. Here in America we are growing our population 3 million a year or a 1% annual increase. From a climate change position this is an unmitigated disaster. If the people who believe in climate change really believed they would be dead set against immigration to western countries and consider it a blessing western pops are in decline. Western countries are energy intensive and resource consuming. It is those countries who's populations need to decline. @@kimwarburton8490

Dark matter phase transitions could be a primary climate driver. If the solar system passes through an area of higher liquid dark matter content the planets cores would all receive more heat due to increased phase transitions thus heating the earth from the inside out.
Heating of the planet from the inside out would result in :
Increased ground temperatures
Increased sea temperatures
Increased nighttime temperatures
Increased seismic activity
Increased earthquakes
We are currently passing through the S1 dark Matter stream

Aug 13 11:00 2023 -7 41 south Venus Earth conjunction VENUS TSUNAMI was past the outward deflection and on its way back 1166 days also Venus was south of the orbital plane
Oct 28 2023 I predicted a major heat release in the Arctic and Antarctic due to combined tidal affects on the dark matter sphere around the sun in combination with the movement of the barycentre of the Earths location. VENUS TSUNAMI was facing the side and the distance between the planets was further and there was no online data from Concordia.
DATES TO WATCH for tsunami rotation ?? Pre and post rotation rates are needed
Jan 16-25. 2024 Mercury Venus alignment
Mar 07-20 2024 Mercury Jupiter alignment Venus Mars alignment
Apr 11-18 2024 Mercury Earth alignment Jupiter Uranus alignment
May 20-28 Venus Jupiter Uranus alignment Mercury Mars Saturn ? Neptune ?
June 15-23 Mercury Venus alignment
Venus atmospheric temperatures from 2009-2017 also were higher after conjunctions
Venus atmospheric rotation takes 4 days - atmospheric tsunami takes on average 5 (4.9?) days to circle Venus since 1986 this could be caused by an offset dark mater sphere as a result of wobble induced by overflow of LDM every 5 days when the sphere is closest to the sun. This departing kick is what keeps the offset between Venus and its dark matter sphere which then accumulates LDM for 5 more days. The interval from the data I found varies from 4-6 days the 6 day stretch was after the 2022 conjunction which may have depleted its dark matter reserves resulting in a slower tsunami rotation. The clouds at that level take 5.7 days to circle the planet (tsunami speed = 328 kph)
NASA issued a climate change warning for Mars after Mariner 9 (icecaps melting)
Neptune has been heating up since 2018
"The data seems to support that there is more than just CO2 at play in the climate." No, what the data clearly shows is that our emissions caused almost all recent global warming... ~1.07 degrees C worth of it.
Saturn circumpolar lobes are increasing. What about Uranus. It's the only planet rotating 90°s from the planetary plane. Day and night is impossible for human mind to imagine. Uranus atmospheric dynamics would be a 'test lab comparitor' for dark matter theories, ... if there is dark matter.
It’s a crying shame that we don’t focus on CONSERVING energy.
Imagine the amount of CO2 we could save instantly for free if we all moved the thermostat 1 degree towards uncomfortable?
Mine is at 14 celcius and has been since 2021/22. I turn it up briefly during december and jan while i have a bath, get dry and into clean clothes and then switch back to 14 celcius

@@ThisIsToolman not amongst those of us struggling with the cost of living. As much as i want the world to triumph over fossil fuels etc, it was money which was the ultimate gamechanger for me. sure, i wasnt crazy with my heating, albeit being disabled n thus stationary did mean i prob used 18-20 24/7 weather dependant pre-covid when prices were reasonable. as far as i was concerned, i cant afford heat pump, social housing thus no agency anyway, so at least my elec was renewable even if my gas is not. Using an elec throw blanket didnt occur to me until i had had mild burns from using hot water bottles the first winter i was anxious about energy prices
According to Nasa/Sandia Labs, in 1982, Magma Energy can supply world energy demand ten times over carbon free forever, plus provide surplus energy to desalinate, irrigate, recycle and capture carbon.
"The estimated size of the U.S. resource (50,000 to 500,000 quads) suggests a considerable potential impact on future power generation. In a previous seven-year study, we concluded that there are no insurmountable barriers that would invalidate the magma energy concept."
Global energy demand today is only 600 quads. The positive, scientifically possible solution spoken of at the beginning does not imply a limits to growth approach, talk of using less energy, of making carbon savings, and so on. We should be aiming for sustainable prosperity based on clean energy abundance.
Magma Energy is a massive source of constant high grade heat energy, easily converted to base load electricity and clean burning hydrogen fuel, more than sufficient to replace fossil fuels. Wind and solar will not meet current global energy demand, less yet increased energy demand into the future; according to the IEA likely to increase 50% over the next 30 years. Fossil fuels will meet that increased demand unless there is a truly adequate alternative.
You can count it any old way, but I reckon things are doomed for about 500 years. Some humans should survive, so we'll see if they learned anything. Good luck!
I don't think we see an exponential increase in energy demand, that's more the developing economies catching up.
I wouldn't worry too muchvabout it. What goes up must come down. About 50 years of soil, 45 yrs of oil left, 130 yrs of coal left, 30 yrs of Cu, etc...Consider that 1 C inc over the growth period reduces crop yields by 10%. In a 3 C world land temps over our grain belts are going to be 4-6 C higher during the growth season. So it all comes to an end this century and billions die. What goes up must come down. This one off growth spurt has reached a peak...we are on the way down.
Climate change makes me think of the Fermi Paradox, which questions why-- given the size and age of the universe-- we haven't seen any sign of any other life out there. One possibility is that all civilizations destroy themselves before achieving interstellar travel. I wonder if we are about to be an example of that. Another possibility is that we are actually alone. Life is just that special and rare and unique. Life has to pass through "Great Filters" that can destroy it, and often doesn't. I wonder if this is ours.
Engineering microbes for food nutrition along with global vegans could feed us all and leave a large part of this world for Nature to do its thing!
Yes, but we take down the rest of the planet's life and biodiversity of which we have no right
@@simonpannett8810 Precision fermentation has a lot of promise. A variety of solutions have been around for decades and nothing substantial has been accomplished. The reason for this is fairly obvious. Current corporate stakeholders and their sycophantic politicos do not want to change the system that they profit from. The common person is also swamped with propaganda and conflicting info and because of daily chores has little time anyway to act. Easier if you just accept the inevitable. Humans are clever but not wise. It is our destiny to destroy what is left of the biosphere in the next few decades.
@@nsbd90now My sentiments exactly. I've often thought about this- a topic explored in some Star Trek episodes.

Basically it is asking rich people to give up their goodies. Look around you, guys: it is not going to happen!
If you have a computer and the time to watch this and post, you probably are a rich person. Are you giving up your lifestyle?

I disagree with the premise we are in a climate emergency.
Then you haven’t taken the time to read basic climate science. What about pollution?
I have my head in the sand and I disagree with the premise that there is a sky.
@@susanb4816 How do you define emergency. China and India drasticlyy increased co2 for the last 30 years and all hell has not broken loose.
@@susanb4816 Government science changes with alarming regularity. You must be young I lived through the next ice age scare of the 70s.
@@atillathehungry3145 You don't understand the time lag of co2 emissions. It's about 30 years. All of the IPCC modeled predictions, when compared to the latest real data (real results), have been shown to be childishly optimistic. Things are far worse than ever predicted and are about to get rapidly worse in the very near future. We are about to learn what exponential climate change looks like. Wake the hell up, man. When COP28 is being run by oil barons and all the environmental scientists are screaming that we will likely go extinct - and you'll live to see it if you're below the age of 50, there might be something... a little awry.
An the AI revolution is not helping now is it?
iv'e been watching a guy with the surname shapiro. His channel focuses heavily on AI. In short, within 5yrs the improvements in AI will be exponential. AI is likely to help us solve the climate crisis, to help us negotiate n find solutions that work for everyone.
I agree that technology needs to develop, however since there is no guarantee that three hundred more years around the sun will come to pass. For the potential to be successful, we need to start thinking that we are going to survive the universe and all technology developments and social structures need to revolve around that idea. Anyway the planet is not going to last forever. Think bigger. Our biggest challenge right now is to first outlive the existence of the solar system. The science tells us that solar systems come and go in a galaxy. The climate, we have to adapt and thats it.
If we dont solve the climate and environmental destruction we are causing, societal structures will collapse at the very least, which means we wont have the structures in place to become an inter-planetary species. Fermi paradox^
Completely irrational.
We should ignore our present problem but should be concerned that that planet wont be habitable in 500 million years?
500 million years ago we were a fish. The death of the solar system is not a problem for our species.
He talked about everything but the elephant in the room, population. Until we tackle our growing population nothing else matters as pop growth will outstrip all efficiency gains and renewable energy inputs. Be it mass immigration to energy intensive western countries or global pop growth at 200,000+ daily.
Have you taken a look at population demographic charts? The majority of countries have not been meeting replacement levels for quite some time. Once the boomers start dying off due to old age, our population will naturally be shrinking. Also, there is a trend among millenials and younger generations to not have children due to climate already and many people arent having children due to finances as well. Without immigration, europe, uk and usa would have declined badly due to lack of workers. We are despite immigration at risk when millenials and younger reach retirement. When state pensions were created, there were 8-10 workers supporting each pensioner. We now have 4-6 workers supporting each pensioner today. It will be worse than that in 35 years when i retire with rumours that there will be no state pension , or that what it will be frozen such that it at best will be a top-up. This is why the uk gov made workplaces do pensions again in 2012, because people of my generation wont be able to rely on the state pension
I am aware of the demographics, of western countries declining in pop from low birth rates. If gov retirement programs had been managed properly there would be plenty of money to deal with fewer workers vs retirees. My issue is a growing population and the environmental consequences. If immigration to western countries was just maintaining pop numbers, ok. That is not the case, we have mass immigration greatly growing western populations. Here in America we are growing our population 3 million a year or a 1% annual increase. From a climate change position this is an unmitigated disaster. If the people who believe in climate change really believed they would be dead set against immigration to western countries and consider it a blessing western pops are in decline. Western countries are energy intensive and resource consuming. It is those countries who's populations need to decline. @@kimwarburton8490
