    Excellent video and summary of the dis-information campaign run by the oil industry.
    My concern is the politicians and to a large extent the public want to keep growth going as fast as possible, despite the fact we're on an unsustainable course at present. As things stand we are essentially not paying the 'full price' for goods and services because we are not paying for the environmental cost that either the extraction, usage and/or the disposal phase causes. That cost is instead been stored up into the future and compounded.
    Imagine a plane in level flight, politicians promise growth with long term unsustainable policies but that deliver 'quick wins' that can be seen within the next election cycle. Its the equivalent to pulling up the nose with the controls but doing nothing else, you gain a bit of altitude but sacrifice your airspeed. The problem is the longer they keep operating on a short term growth cycle basis without addressing the 'whole cost', the increasingly difficult it will be for the economy as well as the wider environment and ecology as those forces compound over the longterm. Eventually just like the aircraft in this analogy, economies too will enter a major stall, the phase where we'll be living with the consequences we've been storing up: environmental and ecological degradation on a global scale, the increasing costs of trying to adapt, having to attempt very expensive and risky geo-engineering type solutions, large swathes of the planet becoming difficult to live in contributing to massive humanitarian and migratory challenges, likely all within an increasingly unequal world, something always liable to lead to a significant rise in civil unrest, none of which are conducive to economic growth in the long-term.
    We need to be looking at adopting more sustainable approaches now to set us up with a better long-term outlook ahead.

      "In September 2022, the area that was at least 15 percent ice covered was 4.87 million square kilometers (1.88 million square miles), tying with 2010 for eleventh lowest in the satellite record." NOAA. Yes maybe it expanded in extent compared to previous years. Yet: "According to the National Snow and Ice Data Center, the amount of ice that survives the summer melt season has shrunk by 13 percent per decade relative to the 1981-2010 average. In the 2020 Arctic Report Card, experts reported that the average minimum extent for each third of the satellite record has successively declined: 6.85 million square kilometers (2.64 million square miles) for 1979-1992, 6.13 million square kilometers (2.37 million square miles) for 1993-2006, and 4.44 million square kilometers (1.71 million square miles) for 2007-2020." It's not the extent that's the real issue - the volume is over 75% gone. The multiyear ice is over 90% gone. Extent can disappear fast as the thickness goes down.

    It is scientific malpractice to discuss global warming without discussing or while dismissing ice ages. We have had 5 known ice ages with the last one ending about 12,000 years ago. The very melting of the last ice sheet carved the Missouri river and was the boundary of the migration of the last ice sheet. We know ice ages are cyclic but what is lesser know is why. They are either internal or external forces at play. Internally would set our focus on plate tectonics and volcanoes. Externally would put our focus on the sun. Geologically speaking we are still exiting the last ice age. Warming is predictable, inevitable and immutable by mankind. There are forces at play much greater and older than mankind. Climate change denial, far from it.

    • @MariaMartinez-researcher

      Ice ages happened during periods of lower greenhouse gases (let's say, CO2) and warm ages happened during periods of high amounts of CO2, like the Cambrian period, which had about 4,000 ppm.
      Yes, there have been natural cycles, and their multiple causes aren't totally understood, but the correlation CO2-heat is undeniable, and proven by chemistry and physics. Now, we are experiencing the effects of a sudden increase of CO2 originated in the burning of fossil fuels, again, proved by chemistry and physics - and history. Climatologists agree. As the video shows, fossil fuel companies also agree, but their reaction is to seed uncertainty to keep their profits - what you say issues directly from one of their slogans: "climate changes are natural, nothing different here, nothing to do about it."
      Your argument is like someone saying that wildfires are natural and unpredictable, therefore it is scientific malpractice to put off the burning frying pan over your stove that is filling the house with smoke and setting the curtains on fire.
      Will you keep wondering until the whole house is on fire before acknowledging that fire is fire and grabbing the foam extinguisher?

      "More Rain is not a Problem."
      I don't know if you have heard about El Niño and La Niña. Both of these are caused by higher ocean temperatures than normal. The occurrences of these events increase with temperature. Between 1850 and 1950, there were 58 events, while between 1950 and 2023, there have been 130 events. Data from IPCC. And this predominantly affects people in the global south. The recent Chennai floods this year and the floods in Pakistan last year are recent examples of this.
      "Warmer weather is not a Problem."
      When temperatures rise above normal levels, the soil tends to dry out, reducing its capacity to absorb water. Consequently, when rainfall occurs later in the year, it often leads to flooding, contributing only to runoff water instead of replenishing the water table. Causing droughts.
      "More arable land is not a problem."
      I think you got mixed information that a warming planet is good for plants. Although some weeds and nonessential plants may thrive in these conditions, the yield of vital food crops tends to decrease with rising temperatures. And with floods and increased weather events, it is getting difficult to harvest them after they are grown.
      Longer growing seasons are not a Problem.
      I don't understand what you are referring to here
      "CO2 greening of the earth is not a Problem."
      The greening of CO2 is a phenomenon exhibited by plants that increases only the "number of leaves in a plant !! " Technically the CO2 does help plants grow, but without increased nitrogen in the soil, the growth would plateau out eventually. i.e., They would have grown even without the excess carbon dioxide and this is not a free pass to continue emitting CO2.
      "There isn't any Climate Crisis."
      If all the above points aren't considered a climate crisis, then I think there isn't a climate crisis.
      But I really do want you to think, think outside the box, think outside your country, and even outside your usual sources of information.
      Maybe read a science journal once but directly from the source and not from a news channel's perspective of it.

      Pakistan has witnessed 28 super floods in its 75-year history. Did climate change cause those floods in the 1950s?
      World-wide floods, droughts and storms etc. are about the same.
      We do have more arable land, and longer growing seasons, look at the back of your seed packages, the hardiness zones are moving northward. Not a problem in my book.
      Yes plants need nitrogen too. And there are governments around the world that want to ban nitrogenous fertilizers. Why?
      I don't bother with science journals I look at the actual data concerning floods, droughts, storms, tide gauges, food production, polar bears, disease trends and so on.

      From 1850 to 1950 there has been 6 major floods. After 1950 as you rightly mentioned about the increased flooding. What you didn't mention is after 2010 there's been a flood almost every year.
      The arable land has increased because of increased demand for food production and the yields have increased because of genetically modified super crops. That has nothing to do with CO2 and higher temperatures. Actually these genetic modifications actually want to make them drought resistant. Wink wink Global avg temperature increase (Global warming).
      And i cannot find any countries banning nitrogen fertilizer but governments across the world are try to make farmers efficiently use it because runoff fertilizers cause so much harm to the ecosystem.

    The sun has cycles every 240-280 years that repeat, clearly seen throughout our history.
    Like a motor, stable enough, it can speed up and slow down in its production of heat and light.
    The lowered irradiance or intensity of light created during this time is thus weakened.
    Circulating fields of plasma within the sun, always interracting, sometimes interfering and sometimes reinforcing wavelength field output, results in a cooling of our climate, presently the case.
    Why the heat?
    Think of the motor that slows down, its corresponding magnetic field also weakens.
    Because our magnetosphere is generated by the sun magnetic field its weakening allows more cosmic and solar radiation to enter our atmosphere, warming our land, sea and air.
    When oceans warm they release greenhouse gases from dissolved suspension, a symptom of warming, not the driver.
    Historical data show warming always occurs prior to CO2 increase and vice versa.
    Nature in its wisdom to balance the heat weakens the suns light and creates clouds by ionizing the atmosphere..
    Charged particles grow in size due to the ionizing effect, attract moisture, fuelled by accelerated evaporation of our water sources on earth and then become clouds.
    Between weakening sunlight and added cloud cover over the earth, the earth falls into a cycle of cooling temperatures and longer winters.
    Reference the Grand Solar minimum, last occuring in the dark ages, where frigid temperatures were experienced.
    Due to what amounts as cloud seeding, random increasing rainfall and flooding is experienced.
    Crops will and are failing due to a phenomenon that comes and goes in the regular procession of nature.
    Yes, man is undoubtably contributing but nature carries on.
    Those pushing the agenda will not go there.
    And who do you think is behind this, the same peoplecand organizations that own big oil.
    About 20+ years ago i was reading nasa articles that revealed several other planets were also experiencing symptoms of Global warming and they went on to say it was likely caused by increasing Cosmic radiation passing through from space.
    You see the sun fuels the magnetosphere, not just around earth but the entire Solar system....
    Then it became political and they forgot what they knew.

There is no easy replacement for plastics and pharmaceuticals, lubricants, clothes, etc etc that are no derived from oil, and these products have transformed our world. As for gas and oil for energy, ships need diesel/heavy oil and planes need jet fuel. There's a lot of sense in moving cars away from hydrocarbon for air quality reasons, but if rushed without due thought will it end up being less environmentally friendly. You have to approach this from a neutral stand point. 'Fck big oil and corporations and Conservative politicians' is not a very bright way to discuss the topic.
