- A future of rising global temperatures looks bleak. To stop it, we need to cut greenhouse gas emissions by 2.5% every year, until they reach zero. Here's how we can do it.

US should eliminate the wasteful junk mails received by every household....
yeah more lettrbombs less junk mail
Fr tho
And robocalls
We need to start doing something before it’s too late
Rossi King it is to late
Greenland's ice sheet melted so fast that it added .5mm to the sea level. We need to do something
It is, kind of, too late.
The damage we've done is permanent, according to google. (I'll put some resources here later).
All we can do is minimize the impact that climate change will have, unfortunately.
Rossi King people will only do something when the world is about to end
Yeah. Voting out all the politicians that either don't believe in climate change or are too weak about it would make the biggest difference. We need transformative reforms
I’ve cut down my meat consumption to 1-2 times a week
Beef max one... trying to cut back on that as well
I have stopped using disposable things such as tea bags, plastic bottles, makeup wipes, tampons (I use a menstrual cup) wish I could cut down on my car usage more but I hope to one day buy a Tesla (I have solar panels so hope that will reduce the electricity impact) I barely use heating/cooling in my house. I compost all my food waste and recycle everything that can be
And yet it’s so frustrating to me that all these things were so easy to implement and really have only made positive impacts to my life (and my bank account) but so many people just don’t give a crap so they don’t do these simple things as well.
Im trying to get my paycheck. There is no way I can give up my car (cuz I need it). and Im barely saving for my family (no way in hell im going to ever be rich enough to buy a Tesla). and besides, reducing emissions won't solve global warming, it will just delay it. If its inevitable, why not just go through with it. Politicians swarm us with taxes and blame us for global warming. Im sorry but this is ridiculous. Its not my fault that countries havent invested in the myriad of companies that have actually made products that actually reduce CO2 levels in air, but instead, tax us and then use our money to get their paychecks and their jet planes that actually hurt the environment. don't blame the working class, blame the politicians themselves. Jeez
Climate Change, if there is any, IS CAUSED BY GEOMAGNETIC FIELD SHIFT. Earth's magnetic field shift is overdue. It is a scientific fact that the shift/excursion is happening now. Excursion is the term used for a partial movement. The magnetic field's strength drops to 5% during a shift.
Your comment gave me hope, ive been starting to do what youre doing.
@@dennis3065 the magnetic field of the earth has no effect on climate change. The peer reviewed scientific evidence for climate change being caused by humans dumping billions of tonnes of CO2 and other greenhouse gases is clear and overwhelming. This information is freely available online and easy to find.
I’ve been watching Netflix and eating Doritos
100 companies contribute to 71% of carbon emissions. To actually make a difference we need to protest.
skyhigh315 beautiful comment could not have said it better we have to make a change and blaming big business isn’t going to do it.
We also have to remember that economy is based on the principles of demand and offer. If companies do something, they do that because we are interested in that specific service or product , which motivates said companies to follow that same road again and again
@@lucapaltrinieri5419 So the economy is effectively the issue
@@lucapaltrinieri5419 wrong, markets are undemocratic and inefficient at transmitting qualitative information. price signals aren't going to solve a system architecture problem. the best corporates can do is try to capitalize on people's feelings of helplessness through advertising.
Protesting is also a good idea but the thought ‘it’s all the companies’ fault and I individually don’t have any impact’ is a trap. We all can influence what happens also by individual behavior. Like said in the video if enough people would make small changes, it would add up. Also the more individuals value planet-friendly action, the more companies would have to follow (and companies are made up of individuals too). The thought that one person can’t make a difference is harmful cause then noone would ever start trying to make a difference. Starting out modeling better behavior may attract/inspire others to do the same.
Wow..What an amazing video. It's so much clear when there is no silly jocks and overacting mixed up with serious stuff.
I've bought an electric car as my first car 😊 I'm from Norway 🇳🇴
Per Ringnes i have never bought or will buy a car. I win.
m8 doesnt bloody maatte raye im from australia and we dont even eat steak
update. my car broke. moving to the city where I don't need a car at all. public transport.
Here in Pakistan electric cars are not available 🙁 . But I want to buy one.

Instead of giving up on your car entirely, why not replace it with an electric one?
+Bernas Because producing an electric car has a larger footprint than the average lifetime of a modern fossil fueled car.
Nice and objective, not. That "study" is absolutely laughable. Bernas
I don't waste time with end of the world cult members. Don't try and pass pseudo-science as science either, it's insulting.Bernas
What, is that some sort of 6 year-old "mirror" tactic?
sorry for the bad english, as I said i'm Norwegian
It disgusts me how they spent so much money on notredame when they could have used that money on this sort of stuff :(
the French government spent 1 billion pounds (I'm English) fixing Notre Dame and at the time-1 year ago- 1 billion was all we needed to get almost every bit of plastic out of the sea. Now we are too late
@@annpancha9122 this is not true. there is no way to get every bit of plastic out of the sea, and even getting a small fraction out would cost more.
I don't buy plastic cups anymore. I have one easy to clean cup that I use for all of my drinks. I walk to school every day and I eat loads of veg.
Very cool.
I have been using a 900 MPGe electric bike for the past 6 years as my main form of transportation.
It's much more energy efficient than electric cars because it doesn't weigh very much and most of the energy is used moving me instead of a heavy box.
Starting with reducing instead of giving up already makes a difference! Taking action requires a start after that we can work on stepping towards giving up.
Where did they get trees absorb 2kg of CO2 per year from?
I only found one source and that was a study of one forest. Most other sites state between 10kg and 20kg per year.
I’m so scared for what will happen. It’s terrifying looking at how much we’ve already done, and how much we need to do to stop it. I am absolutely terrified.
Yep
Don't be scared Molly its a big con' go on and enjoy your life!
I’m glad I’m moving. School is close and so is work for my parents. We can each walk! Oh, and I’m vegetarian. I hope all of us humans can make a change before its too late.
-----
And I screaming right now, the house I live in rn (before I move) everyone in my neighborhood cuts there trees and we were forced to cut down ours. It’s so sad.😔
Maybe stop having climate change conferences where rich politicians and royals travel via planes. Hypocrites. Just us peasants who have to suffer....
Celebs that make climate change warning videos and then travel around by private jet are the biggest hypocrites.
I am vegetarian..no violence against animals..and planet.. I have sympathy towards all creatures who are living in this earth..i can't eat them ..never
Good ideas. I already use energy saving light bulbs, recycle, and ride a bicycle, but there is more to do.
That is for sure.
भारत ने शुरू से ही मांस मीट को वर्जित रखा है लेकिन आज स्वार्थ और अपने धर्म को भुलाने के कारण यहां भी मांसाहार किया जाता है जिसकी वजह से आज जलवायु परिवर्तन संकट पुरे विश्व पर मंडरा रहा है
How does this have only 80k views, this was 5 years ago. WTF
FREE PUBLIC TRANSPORT
I am really scared!
Or we can just vote for politicians who actually make a change and don’t just wait for the next person to do it
It's interesting that coal was not mentioned at all. And all the emphasis In this video is on the consumer.
It is not important enough, otherwise they would have cut all commercials, they haven't so...
Polar bears are dying I wonder if the world notices the damage I’m not normally strong about stuff like this but it hit me hard
Everybody should plant trees whereever they can and put solar panels on every roof. Fill them up and stop covering up carbon absorbing peanut farmland with solar panels (Carter never did make a lot of sense.)
People can’t afford solar panels tho
@@Dr0wZ1i mean another option is donating to fund solar panels on buildings
not everyone can plant trees themself but there are organizations they can support via donation that do plant trees
Just try it aye
Wow, what an informative video! I am a vegan however, please share with us how eating steak affects climate change
If we all stop eating beef what do we do with all the cows?
the cows are born BECAUSE people eat them. so if we stop eating them, the number will simply go down
Stop junk mail as well! I get so much junk mail and I can’t stop it! Urgh
I am a vegetarian. Oh and by the way I’m 8
we need thanos
What is misleading about this video is that it overly emphasizes only individuals responsibility to cut emission when we should be mandating that industry and corporations be held accountable and bear the burden of emissions cuts by fundamentally altering their day to day economic activities.
I dislike chicken and beef, pork is what i would struggle to give up going vegetarian, i do try my best and will continue to.
but if we want to truley slice the effects in half, we need to group and go after big cooperations, and the governments who protect them and let them continue to pump out emissions
So why don't we just go plant a few billion trees?
... Because there are already three trillion trees on Earth. The benefit of planting one tree is effectively zero, other than they look nice.
But, if we planted a few million, directly in the smoggiest parts of Shanghai, we could probably make life better for several million people. And that's not nothing.
Assuming the smog doesn't kill them, of course, as trees can't live without sunlight.
Who else is watching fro online class
Guys share this video to everyone
im rich and i have 2 teslas im a money hungery of a good person trying to save the world?
Romanus Bekweniwe started watershed management and trained under the helvetas Cameroon Natural Resources Management program have been a consultant to RAD CAMEROON in Bambui tubah for the development of the NGONG project and a partner I am also a watershed technician and coordinator of the community based extension initiative group. Based in bambui tubah sub division mezam in the NW REGION of CAMEROON based between central and WEST Africa
Zero means no one able to use gas cars for anything ? Only the rich get to live comfortably by the looks of it.
So why the community is not doing anything?
because many people don't care, the real issue is the big cooperations and the governments who protect them, who get payed by them, governments aren't completely separate, the rich pay them to protect them. The rich do not care about the effects cuz they won't be there to experience the environmental consequences of capitalism
It can easily be done and i do not hear anybody say it is easy to do but it would be. If they wanted to reverse it they could easily..
***** The biggest threat is the ice age. The earth cooling down is way worse than a gradual heating of it. Stop cutting down trees and stop using fossil fuels then our planet would resume its natural process of heating up and cooling down. We have better substitutes that are planet friendly. Like i said i would panic more if it was cooling down. ..
hi
I watched this because I was scared if all the ice in the world would melt but I have a faith in GOD and I want climate change to stop but what if every country always make wars ? that's it! I wanna die!! 😢😢
what???
Taehyungie Queenz no bish u cant leave taehyung alone?!
We now know recycling especially plastic does not save us emissions of carbon. They all end up in the ocean
Technically if i didn't eat meat the animal will breathe and release co2 also eat and release ch4 not so much difference
Maybe the FIRST thing we can do is STOP RIDING IN GAS CARS DUUUHH
and with Electric Vehicle I mean
TESLA
seems we are doomed know one will change...
How about give us a proper transportation, and I will not buy a car.
How about let’s stop car racing,cruise ships,planes jetting all over the world then come talk to me about cutting my carbon footprint I plant trees every year to help.
I want to help but I live in America what can Americans do
Go vegan
Vote for someone with brains.
I'm sorry but I'll never give up on my meat.. but I can do the rest easily
Every bit helps😊
By the way, electric cars aren't the future, people in the comment section. Bio-fuel cars and hydrogen fuel cell cars are your better option.
this was a bad take even 4 years ago
Coucou le cours d’anglais
Thou shalt not litter!
Build more nuclear powerplant and most importantly STOP SHUTTING DOWN PERFECTLY FINE NUCLEAR POWERPLANTS!!!
I’m vegan 🌱
😂😂😂
Bwahaha, it's cold af. How did global warming cause snow in southern Az?
Global warming is AVERAGE surface temperature rise, which is then causing climate change, which often means hotter climates but can cause colder ones. And the warming isn't distributed evenly everywhere. The average warming is very slight, only a few degrees, so it doesn't mean it can't snow. But just a few degrees does mean drastic changes to the climate overall and in the long run.
Women will never give up their makeup. Cosmetics is one of the most CO2-intensive industries in the world; both the chemical products and the blatant over-packaging. Such hypocrisy.
It was a pizza and it was worth it!
GO VEGAN !!
I absolutely refuse to give up the steak. It won't make a significant difference. Having fewer cars on the road is the only thing that will make a significant difference. Therefore I am giving up the car instead.
77tubuck Cows are farting and farts are Co2 XD
Hello Blade, cows have four stomachs so they fart four times more as humans. But humans easily live ten times longer than cows. So here is the answer :

Giving up steak will make a huge difference.
For 1kg of beef 10 times more CO2 is produced than for 1kg of rice. www.theguardian.com/environment/2018/may/31/avoiding-meat-and-dairy-is-single-biggest-way-to-reduce-your-impact-on-earth
But we dont do it because we are humans
and thats what humans do
How much money do I need to give to the Democrat party to stop the climate?
