Get to school a low-carbon way for your last few weeks of school a...

    You want to fix the pollution that's actually what's causing the most damage? Chemical/textile pollution from China, India, SE Asia and parts of Africa are where the focus should be. Global water pollution is a far greater problem than our air.

    Good video, well presented. I made a water feature in the back yard that has plants. During heavy rains it just over flows. Saves having to add water. This video shows how to do it better. Thanks.

  • @davidnjenga9440
    @davidnjenga9440 2 роки тому

    Good for tropical countries. In cold climates the water below the surface will freeze and expand and weaken the layers by day until it cracks

  • @baseddino
    @baseddino 2 роки тому

    Water go under the road and create void, gets clogged so it has to be cleaned, also places with clay soil and shit have to have the water pumped out. Not to mention the obvious it's weaker than traditional concrete so it can only be used in parking lots or low stress areas, also can not be used on a slope because it will drain to the bottom and build up

    Thanks so much for your video. I'm just beginning to learn about rain gardens and how to utilize rain water in my garden. I used to live where water rights were a big issue and we weren't legally able to save rainwater because it actually belonged to the entities that had water rights. Now I see I have much to learn and your video was instructive for me. I hope you will keep making videos.

    *NORDS* There are 23 billion chickens on earth, if one sneezes we all get the flu, covids are the new norm Soy and corn are gene modded to survive the poisons that kill soil, birds, bugs, fish, frogs & plants. Soy and corn are treated with petrochemicals and nano particles for market. Soy and corn are wrapped in gender bending containers for shipping and storage, then we eat it - get sick - and buy medicine from the same people. WHY THERE WILL NEVER BE A 100% VEGAN GREEN ENERGY WORLD Weather = flash floods + flash fires + flash rains + flash droughts + flash mobs Climate = 30 years of weather + you don’t got time to worry about climate 4% OF MAMMALS ARE WILD + 4% OF ENERGY IS RENEWABLE Solar and wind power are 2% of total global energy use after 20 years trying ( IEA stats 2020 ) By 2040 only 15% of global energy will be renewable This is because electricity is a little over 20% of global energy use By weight only 4% of mammals are wild, humans & livestock = 96% Emissions went up 50% in 30 yrs , up 30% in 15 years BAU = RCP8.5 = C02 @ 500 ppm by 2040 and 600 ppm by 2050 = 2X safe limit of 300 ppm Renewables will be only 20% of global energy by 2050, even with new solar tech - thanks to AC, cryptos, chargers, EVs etc By 2030 half the world will be severely short of water Dams and bio-energy are ecological shit holes 80% of river life is gone and water dam wars are in Africa and Asia 50% of Euro Nord renewable electricity comes from burning imported trees Nords burn corn, soy and palm oil in cars and will do so until 2030 so far Nords burn plastic and recycled paper for electricity In the last 20 years, petrochemical demand grew 7X human population You can’t burn forests for electricity to save us from the climate We can’t build wildfire suppression big enough to handle future wildfires Forest fires will burn faster than we can plant trees We don’t have enough land for bio-energy and carbon capture To get 30% of energy from algae would take a country the size of Argentina To get 20% of global energy from solar in 30 years, we need them 3X faster than now By 2050, there will 78 million metric tons of solar panel waste, generating 6 million metric tons of new solar panel waste annually. Standard electronics recycling methods don’t cut it for solar panels. By 2040 not even half of all cars will be electric By 2040 we will have 10% less food, if we’re lucky REAL CLIMATE JUSTICE = 100% PRIVATE GLOBAL CARBON UBI = 0% FOR GOVERNMENTS lokisrevengeblog.wordpress.com/2020/07/16/the-book-of-knowledge-witless-wonders/ fdfdfdf
