Hey Goodhumans! This was one of the most requested episodes we’ve had. It was also one of the toughest to tackle for our team, but deeply illuminating for us as well. We hope the same for you.
Here at Jubilee, we believe in the value of open & honest discussions in order to pave a path towards empathy and develop a better understanding of people with different perspectives. Capturing the complexity and deeper nuances of a topic in a short period is incredibly difficult. However, we hope this discussion can inspire you to dive deeper and spark your own conversations. We’d love to be a part of it and hear your own insights below, so please share 🙂
This shouldn't be a debate. The lives of the youth is at stake.
the skeptics are heroes
this comment section is one large echo chamber
Flat earthers and scientists!
I do like your videos but tbh this one let the skeptics get away with a bit too much misinformation. Maybe fact checking on screen would be good? I know you all want to stay neutral but staying neutral and staying in the middle are two different things, when one side is far to one aisle than staying in the middle would not be neutral
Lady: I know a guy who knows a guy who knows a guy

King Irene DEADASS - like who am I going to believe : a woman who wishes to speak to the manager or a damn scientist
She's probably Saul Goodman's ex wife
I believe in climate change and scientists are smart but I’m not trusting everything they say no should really
@@teedee4095 well obviously you shouldn't if it's anything outside of their field
But, she's right to the extent that climate has and will continue to change long after we have gone. Now what she failed to say because of her non-climate scientific background is that we as humans are having an adverse and increased affect on the climate change and patterns globally due to our industrialisation etc.
Hardest "Try Not to Get Mad" challenge ever.
try reading through the comment section, that's a real "try not to get mad" challenge
Not as bad as flat earthers vs scientists
@@nogoodmacaroon that one was tough
As soon as the women started talking I was steaming.
Yea just blame China and literally every other country but your own.
When you realized all the skeptics are old people who will die before anything drastic happens during their lifetime
That is the main problem with the issue. Almost all of the people in power will die before anything drastic happens.
so will we. were supposed to be under water according to al gore
Exactly, they don’t care because they won’t be here long enough to witness any of the detriment they left behind.
💀
Let's hope they die sooner rather than later.

The meme sucks
“i’m not a climate scientist but i know a lot them”,
she said..... to an actual, educated climate scientist
I would hate her, were it not for the sheer awe of how GIANT her balls must be to do that
@Artificial Sweetener Its not about predicting the future, its about acknowledging how climate has changed over the years, identifying the causes and effects of it and trying to prevent it from having devastating repercussions. I expect a climate scientist to know more about climate than someone who claims to "know a lot of them". Climate scientists dont just study the weather.
C.D. Collins A climate scientist IS a REAL SCIENTIST who studies the climate and other things that come with it. The video is not about debating anyone. Its about sharing views and finding a MIDDLE GROUND. They werent debating each other. The climate scientist just stated facts that he has studied for a long time while the other person was talking about things that she was clearly not familiar with.
C.D. Collins rewording your past comment doesnt mean you are saying anything new.
He's one biased man
"The United States is held more responsible", well yes, it was the ONLY country who came out of the Paris treaty which was a small step towards addressing the issue, not Russia, not China, US!
Yeah but Russia's only income is made by selling gas - and Russia has Methan under it's ice, which is melting right now and Methan is way, WAY worse than CO2.
And China...guess what. They are the worst country for pollution. Right now they are on par with the US for CO2 emission, but they have three times the population, so in the future it will be three times the pollution.
And then there is Brazil, which chops down their rain forest for money and India, which is just another China.
Oh it's not looking good for this planet.
@@mistermarcus4281 China probably has such a massive pollution rate because of American's infantile need for cheap and frivolous goods and corporations need for factory slaves.
@@mistermarcus4281 Can you do me a favor and find this excellent German 6 million views video, I can't put links here, channel do not allow any links: Who Is Responsible For Climate Change? - Who Needs To Fix It?
Not Russia cause they sell just gas and not China cause of the air pollution
.
Small suggestion: Start doing Jubilee video's with people from all around the world, not only Americans. That would really show all kinds of perspectives throughout the world. I understand the quality of the video's would go down as not everyone can speak as fluently as natives but it would really add another layer of depth to see and hear the opinions of people on other parts of the globe :)
Very well said! I love these videos, but I very often feel alienated because they seem to be based on the wrongful assumption that the US represents the world.
You want them to flight people over? LMAO
Would be interesting to include a few videos featuring Europeans as views would be very different in the different regions (Northern Europe, British Isles, Mediterraneann, Former Yugoslavian states etc. )
That’s expensive
Yes!! The rest of the world thinks America is a joke. Get these people out if their echo chambers

One side is arguing about life or death while the other side is worried about inconvenience.

@@alexrodriguez1534 What top NASA scientist said you would die from flooding 30 years ago?
@@marcorock7031 James Hansen
I'm with the 99% of you guys on climate change being a huge issue, but I don't think "life or death" is fitting.
These sort of problems exist in every generation and we always deal with them, yes we need to do something but we cant force a way of life on everyone. Obviously small regulations and educating everyone is good, but putting people out of work goes too far. I'm not against climate change but it's not just an "inconvenience", and its not "life or death".
Noor Nasri Why not? Laws force a way of life on everyone in one way or another.

They couldn't water their lawn?? And thats suppression?!? Try losing your home because sea levels have rose
Or not having the money to have fresh drinking water while some old man demands to water his lawn with fresh water. Or not having the money to eat fresh produce because the meat industry has destroyed too much of the farming ground. Or forest fires destroys entire states and takes peoples entire lives from them. Definitely feels like watering a lawn isnt that important

A debate cannot be had when one side refuses to accept basic reality and scientific fact. And we didn't make this a political issue. They did.
I agree the activists are out of touch with reality.
A debate cannot be had when one side says the other doesn't accept basic reality.
There's no "basic reality" with climate change. It's a slippery slope with the consequences being unknown. There's legitimate statistics pointing to the end of humanity within a few centuries, and there's legitimate statistics showing it will have little consequence. Don't boil this down to being "simple" when its really not.
@@demetter7936 it’s not simple by any means but it’s still an issue that we as humanity have a power to change in small acts within our community. I’m pretty sure everyone with the knowledge of basic 7th grade science understands that climate change IS affecting the world in a negative way. We don’t know the outcome if we don’t do anything about it 100% but we WILL understand the outcome if we actually do something about it like normalizing recycling in every day homes around the world and actually caring about our surroundings. Time will only tell.
@@roxanne_ You have the brainpower of an infantile animal if you seriously think "we can help change the entire planets weather if we just work together with the power of friendship guys :DDD"
The EPA did, the ever more popular idea among the elites that we need to have carbon taxes is very political. The lack of choice and say how we tackle the problem is a freedom issue, which is inherently political. It's been political since day 1.

Are they wrong though? No. They believe in climate change, they just dont think the way people are going about fixing it is best.
America cant fix the problems earth has, every country does, and you know what that means? More taxes for Americans because what i said earlier about "America cant fix the problems..." is wrong. We can, we just have to pay the other countries a lot of money to be able to, and then hope that they actually do and dont just take the money.
@@brandipityha9457Im not sure of how far that hope will really go. Not to be too pessimistic I dont think its gonna help that much
I find it a bit selfish on how skeptics feel suppressed by the fact that they have to start making better choices because of climate change and don't think twice of how we are also affecting different species that also have the right to live in a sustainable world.
lol @ species having "rights", a human made fictitious construction
Exactly 💯 They treated the question, “I know someone who has been affected by climate regulations” as an all bad negative thing. Like do they know that the food and water they’ll eat and drink will be covered in Salmonella and E.coli without regulations.
I live in Belgium and there have currently been catastrophic inundations because of climate change. Homes were destroyed, villages were underwater, people drowed, people died. Even though all of this happened nowhere near where I lived, some children in my school did. While I was having the best holiday in spain, I got emailed by the school. While a student was in summer camp, she fell into the river, she was swept away by the current of the river and found by a farmer, dead in a field, far away from where she was last seen. She was only 14.
And I am now watching a pair of old people gambling on and on about how none of this is true, that this extremely brutal climate change is just natural? They are the generation who started to destroy our earth, and they are still shamelessly
continuing to do so. While they have fulfilled there "destiny" and lived there life, because of their ignorance and their selfishness, young people pay the priceof their actions, the future of humanity is dying.
And I'm beginning to think, maybe a world without humanity would be a better world.
Am with you 100%.
I will stand by the activists 100 %

Keith entered the wrong debate. He was asked to participate in a climate change debate but everyone one of his inputs was him just going on a tangent about the American constitution.
Literally, he was way too concerned about the constitution rather than the actual issue that could wind up in everyone being dead

“Oh God I have to take Public Transportation” “our whole society is under attack”
true!
Scientists who are paid by media to spread fear? Climate change means more tax .. fear .. etc etc. Climate change total myth.
Climate regulation is a facade to try to pass more authoritarian and socialist policies through until the state has full control using fear as blackmail.
Politicians lie all the time.
Mainstream Media lie all the time, whether it's cable, newspaper, internet.
We can debunk Politicians and MSM lies cause we can do our independent researchs, something we can't do with climate change. They control the narrative.
0.8 degrees Celsius/1.4 degrees Fahrenheit in difference in the last 140 years is alarming.
Based on my observation, i think the winner of this debate is from the activist who have given facts and viable solutions in their statements while the skeptics have their feelings to use as their main argument
I'm only 22 seconds into the video, but I can already say: do you want to be able to breathe on this planet freely and live the life we wish to live? Then yes, sometimes you have to do things you might not want to do, which is trying to protect our planet. If we go on like this and give people the choice whether to try to help our planet or not despite thinking "eh future generations might not have a healthy planet like that but hey, I don't want to do this because it's too much work and there's no chance in my lifetime it could result into something worse", we're not going to have something sustainable for future generations. Come on people.

@** x and how much more time do you think we have left bacause from what i heard for the past 13 years is changing from day to day it was 12 years a go then it is in 12 years
Ikr
According to the IPCC report which was published in October 2018 we only have 12 years left to limit the climate change catastrophe. Our goal now is to keep it at a max of a 1.5 C temperature rise. The world is currently 1C warmer than preindustrial levels and if we don’t change, we‘re going straight to the >2 C temperature rise which will have enormous effects on life on planet.
At 2C extremely hot days, such as those experienced in the northern hemisphere this summer, would become more severe and common, increasing heat-related deaths and causing more forest fires.
But the greatest difference would be to nature. Insects, which are vital for pollination of crops, and plants are almost twice as likely to lose half their habitat at 2C compared with 1.5C.
Sea-level rise would affect 10 million more people by 2100 if the half-degree extra warming brought a forecast 10cm additional pressure on coastlines.
No, the world will not end if we don’t make it in those 12 years. BUT urgent changes are needed to cut risk of extreme heat, drought, floods and poverty. Because our all lives will change for the worse when we reach the +2C stage.
Well.. You can have both. Do you have a cellular device? do you drive a car? do you eat bananas that are imported to your country? Stfu. you are on the internet so you are the problem.

THE LAAAAAWN!!!!!!!!
Alexia Gonzalez ikr they are basically saying “we have to keep the USA going to get money and to satisfy ourselves.” If we ban certain things like large amounts of factories producing pollution we will have a decrease in jobs. (Loosing people, money, etc) We have to do better; not just ban things. Little things help but it will help greatly in the future. For example, banning plastic bags or common plastic items (or reducing selling amounts which will make someone very upset).

For sure. That one woman was all saying how she had no say in her state but I don't think she realizes how much say she has compared to literally every other country. There are too many people who would rather throw out the entire earth than make their lives more eco friendly. And that's sad that they are able to have the choice to ruin billions of people's lives or try to save them.

Climate change activists: We have scientific records to prove humans are destroying the climate
Skeptics: I want to water my lawn
😂
Actually he didn't really explain that "scientific record" too well. I'm always skeptical when scientists make claims about the past of which we have so little actual data. Much of past "scientific" data is not all that accurate and there's a lot of "missing links". It's very difficult to conclude details about the past because there's just way too much data and way too little resources to find everything and put it all together.

@@biddymahy4367 Economic Growth and Economic Welfare are basicslly the same thing. Well there's a strong correlation anyway. And no growth is not concentrated for the 1%.

it`s so funny because here in germany we have the exact same arguments: "If only Germany cares about climate change it won`t change anything." Many countries are probably saying: "if we are the only ones that do something it is not gonna work" instead of just doing it.

@@leonardu6094
Yes, the propaganda
"Please stop destroying the earth! We live here. Our lives are at stake! I've studied my whole life about the effects of human interaction."
Yet you'll believe the CEO of a major oil company who's money is at stake when they say:
"Climate change isn't real. I did research on Google."
who the hell water loans? I think I've never seen it be more popular other than in America.
I mean, I don't want to seem too aggressive, but It's just a waste of water in my opinion...
There are some cases where you might want to do it, but I see that on most cases is just to have "pretty grass".
you don't need to have the greenest lawn in the neighbourhood, that's just a waste for your own ego.
we already have a huge use of water for golf fields and an excessive meat production (fields of food to feed animals). I think that that is plenty enough.
We are the biggest consumers of meat and the biggest owner of running water. WE have the responsibility to preserve our resources.
Also, I want to point out that if water was infinite, than I'd have nothing against wasting tons of it. But water is not in abundance and I think we need to give it some more respect and importance.
I 100 percent agree with the activist. The anti are delusional. 🤦😂🤦
Something I didn't hear when the activists and skeptics were discussing costs is the impact on the economically disadvantaged. Many people cannot simply choose to drive less because they commute to work & can't easily get new jobs closer to their homes. Also, the average person can't just go out & buy a Tesla. Some middle class families can afford hybrid vehicles, but people trying to work their way out of poverty (or keep from slipping into poverty) have to drive whatever kind of car they can afford, even if it's not "green."

"climate change has nothing to do with humans" , when the largest decrease in air pollution was recorded during lockdowns in numerous countries.
Idk even how people think this. After the industrial revolution, you can see how the CO2 levels are just rising and rising, and how the temperature follows a similar, almost exact path.
@foop some climate “skeptics” say the CO2 lagged the temperature the past 1 million years. But that was due to orbital cycles and CO2 caused the 2nd warming. And the current warming is definitely human caused. But people don’t want to see that.
He’s not saying that people don’t pollute the air. He’s saying that it doesn’t have a serious effect on the overall climate.
YEEES, for the first time in a long time seasons feel normal, winter is cold and it's SNOWING in my country, and autumn was normal and good !
It's usually hot even during winter here, it hasn't snowed it a long time !
You realize that climate change and air pollution are two different things
I don't think there should be a choice to save the planet or not
ella that’s your problem bucko. You don’t control me.

Too bad "saving" the planet in your words means listening to the lying politicians about climate change so they can hold power while the average person suffers from the unnecessary costs.

@@amirboutabaa9028 Lol, Russia does not even have top 10 largest GDP.
Rim pak so what just be selfish? This isn’t a country problem. This is a world problem. The US has a big impact, we aren’t as environmentally friendly as one may think. If we find solutions other countries may follow. China has already made strides bc the issues have gotten so badly. China is a big factor but if we figure in the population, the US is one of the highest users of carbon emissions per person in the world. China having 4.58 per person and US having 19.78 per person to put it in perspective. Are you just gonna blame China when we are all dying bc we killed our own Earth.
@@amirboutabaa9028 This is a global problem so we should think of it globally. Right now America seems to be doing worse then any other country

The activists all seemed really well spoken and I appreciate them all a lot.
Watching this in 2021 as catastrophic weather is even more common... is a trip.
"Why should we do something, when China is worse than us"
This mindset is extremely childish and basic. Just because someone else is "worse than us" doesn't grant us the right to completely disregard climate change. As a country the U.S. has many resources and the largest economy. It is our responsibility to do what's in our power to help our world.
When I was younger my parents were always telling me to compare myself to the "best" rather than to the worst or you'll never improve. It's funny how they don't seem to get this basic notion.
In a way we are also partially responsible for China's emissions. We outsource a TON of our cheap production needs to China, and only care when the smog is carried by wind patterns to the West Coast...
Funny how china is doing a lot of investing in renewable energy and they probably produce the most start up companies for electric vehicles. That is because china doesn't have all these regulations that U.S. has when it comes to technology. Plus I love how U.S. complains about China, yet U.S. produce a lot of waste compared to a country that has 5x the population number and is 2nd in global economy. And did people forget, China is producing a lot of waste primarily from factories, factories that make things for U.S. consumers
china is populated with a billion people i'd figure it would be much harder for them to reduce their footprint compared to america with 4x less people
