You are correct. I've spent over 2 years to help provide a correct set of computations and as we might expect, the establishment isn't on the right path.
If the science is done, where is the model? Do you have any idea what kind of computing power you have today? When I was in college, 1000 people would share a single computer for a school of 30,000 people to do engineering work on. You have that in your pocket now. Yet no models are available, they are supposedly "too complex", well they claimed to have accurate reliable models in the 1990s.

Joking right... Your central point is clear: freshwater is not a limited resource due to the availability of glacier meltwater, and effectively managing and utilizing this resource could address many global issues attributed to water scarcity. Here are some key considerations to emphasize your perspective: 1. Abundant Supply: Glacier meltwater represents a continuous, renewable source of freshwater. Properly harnessed, this could mitigate claims of freshwater scarcity and address global needs. 2. Global Benefits: Utilizing glacier meltwater can provide drinking water, support agriculture, generate hydroelectric power, and improve overall water quality. This could significantly enhance food security, health, and energy production. 3. Environmental Impact Mitigation: By redirecting meltwater, it might be possible to slow sea level rise, reducing the impact of climate change on coastal communities. 4. Infrastructure Feasibility: Given historical and modern achievements in water management infrastructure, it is feasible to develop the necessary systems to collect, store, and distribute glacier meltwater. 5. Economic and Social Benefits: Addressing water scarcity could prevent the socio-economic costs associated with drought, famine, and disease, ultimately proving more cost-effective than dealing with these crises. 6. Political Will and Investment: The main barriers are not technical but political and economic. Prioritizing water distribution as a global humanitarian goal could mobilize the necessary resources and cooperation. By focusing on the practical and strategic benefits of utilizing glacier meltwater, you can advocate for policies and projects that harness this abundant resource to solve critical global issues. The argument is that with the right political will and investment, we can shift the narrative from scarcity to abundance, effectively addressing the root causes of many current and future challenge

She is doing the most that she can, trying to influence the public to put pressure on politicians to do the right thing...resist the fossil fuel industry
It's going to be extremely difficult. Climate change was already noticed when we were just 1-2 billion. Now we're 8. Even if our carbon footprint would be 15% of what it was 100 years ago - without cars, electronics, travel - we'd still stay on trend. We need 8x as much mining, 8x as much furniture and heating. More, in fact, since we don't live in multi-generation cottages, and we renew and replace our homes every so often. We insulate better but also heat more. (25°C is the minimum expected in offices, malls, homes.) It all begins by shaming the Economic Growth. Which is difficult because public debt is designed with it.
As long as our comfortable life style will be more expensive than the cost of the consequences of global warming there are little chances for real change
@@patpat5135 difficult ? yes. Impossible ? No. The future of energy production should prioritize renewables, particularly solar and wind, supplemented by storage batteries. Utilizing just 175 square miles of desert land could feasibly generate enough electricity to meet 100% of the USA's needs, representing a mere 0.1% of the country's desert area. However, this vision is often dismissed as "impossible" due to concerns about its perceived costliness rather than recognizing its potential as an economic opportunity. Given that the USA possesses a sovereign currency, concerns about debt are largely mitigated as long as inflation remains manageable. The prevailing notion that governments should manage finances akin to households is a fallacy that persists.
Strange, because I'm already seeing change. That change is predicted to accelerate this decade. Hold on to your hat, because big change is right around the corner. Already Coal is dying. It is now the most expensive way to make electricity, while Renewables with storage, is the cheapest. What that means is that it is increasingly uneconomic to use coal for pretty much anything. Gasoline might seem strong today, but it's already in trouble. (That trouble is being hidden from the public with some very creative accounting.) I have a feeling the oil industry is going to make Enron's creative accounting look like amateur day, when it all hits the fan. This is why I don't invest in these companies. I don't like losing my money.

I read one of Carl Sagan's books. In that book he claims cosmologists discovered global warming. Venus is many times hotter than Earth. Cosmologists were trying to understand why. They decided the cause was carbon dioxide. They noted that Earth's carbon dioxide emissions in the atmosphere were rising. Cosmologists rang the global warming alarm bell. Carl Sagan was an eminent scientist, whom I trust.
The plant say otherwise. More carbon dioxide equals more plant life. Sagan made his best guess. Not proven. What is proven is the solar maximum and solar minimum affects the weather more than that!
@@RobertMJohnson "the giver of all life is the cause for alarm?" We have to think a little harder than that to understand anything in life. Yes, CO2 is essential for life, but too much is harmful or deadly, just as you need water or blood pressure, but too much is harmful or deadly. Increasing global Co2 levels is already hurting people and the planet in hundreds of ways.
"Venus is many times hotter than Earth. Cosmologists were trying to understand why." How about the simple observation that Venus is much closer to the Sun than the Earth is. All humans know that if you move closer to a heater you will feel more heat!
The best hope is doing something. Even something small. It may make no difference at all. (at least that's what they'll tell you) Do it anyway, even if it only makes you feel better, because "they" are wrong. every tiny bit of CO2 that isn't added to the total, makes that total a tiny bit smaller. While the things we do ourselves won't fix the problem by themselves, if we don't do our part, then we can't force industry, and government to do their part. Only when we get all three doing their part will we really see a big change, and it IS going to happen. So chin up and fight harder!
This nonesense will pass. Its a real shame that we squander fossil fuels but nevertheless the present hysteria will be replaced with another soon enough..... too many people became too few. It will be too little warming next!

Uhh, I'm a long-time Sunday School teacher and senior university professor, and the climate crisis has nothing to do with religion. It's simply a scientific fact that we caused ~98% of all global warming since 1900 and that this rapid global warming is already causing hundreds of harmful ripple effects that will keep getting worse and make ecological and societal breakdown worse and worse.
@joshanderson924 look up the book changing us , the author a Christian climate scientist, as she says it as a believer you are obligated to be good Stewart of the earth and we are doing a bad job at this, anyone that knows the physics behind climate change is upset for a good reason it's much worse than you are being told .. and it's real we have all the evidence
@@joshanderson924 LOTS of religious people are terrified about what we are doing to the climate and the planet-and quite vocal about it. I am a long-time Sunday School teacher and also senior university professor and researcher, and my career is heavily focused on educating future generations to make the changes needed to prevent the catastrophic ecological and societal collapse that we are currently headed towards. My wife is director of education for children and youth at our church and she's very worried about what we are doing to the climate and planet. Many churches have environmental action groups and ministers regularly speak from the pulpit with concern about what we are doing to the climate and planet. It appears that you may have misinterpreted the situation because you don't know the facts. There is nothing "religious" about being a climate activist: Thousands of research studies prove that our emissions caused ~98% of all global warming since 1900 and we are warming the planet ~20 times faster than it usually warms when coming out of an ice age, which is lethally-fast warming for ecosystems and species. Another stack of thousands of research studies has identified hundreds of ways that this rapid warming is harming people, societies, the economy, other species, and the ecosystems that our lives depend on. In short, everyone who cares about other people, other species, our future, and "the creation" should not just be a climate activist, they should be an activity for protecting ecosystems and biodiversity too.

By volume, the dry air in Earth's atmosphere is about 78.08 percent nitrogen, 20.95 percent oxygen, and 0.93 percent argon, adding up to 99.96 percent. A brew of trace gases accounts for the other approximately 0.04 percent, including the greenhouse gases carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide and ozone. To think that a small increase (200 parts per million in the last hundred years) of carbon dioxide would affect the weather is absurd.
I'm impressed you could make this comment and it's visible. Complex comments with detailed information and thinking is generally deleted by an AI on this site.
Here's what the science says: "Small amounts of very active substances can cause huge effects." It doesn't matter if you do not wish to understand it or want to call the science, "absurd". It matters that CO2 is a greenhouse gas. Oxygen and nitrogen are not.
From a manual on employee safety - "H2S is immediately fatal when concentrations are over 500-1000 parts per million (ppm) but exposure to lower concentrations, such as 10-500 ppm, can cause various respiratory symptoms that range from rhinitis to acute respiratory failure." Small ppm of a gas can have significant effect on life. With the ppm of atmospheric carbon going high above anything seen in the last million years, nothing on earth is adapted to the atmosphere we are creating. Millions of scintist and researchers agree that high levels of atmospheric carbon are a problem. Despite your feelings on the issue, sorry I will believe them instead.
@@5353Jumper CO2 is not higher than it ever has been in MILLIONS of years. Not anywhere close. Our atmosphere has about 0.04% CO2. At 0.02% plants can't grow, they die. Plants are STARVING for CO2. People in power LIE, don't you know that by now? There's no climate emergency, we're not destroying the planet.
For 500 million years there has been no correlation between CO2 and temperature. What has changed? Politics. The UN funded research into finding a correlation. Notice the usual gloss over the science (everyone knows the science, right)? Straight into the politics of blame and shame. One day in the future that mother will look back and realise how we were deceived.
That's actually not true. Of course, nobody ever claimed that CO2 was the ONLY thing affecting temperature. And over deep time, many other factors come into play. Over THAT distance in time, our continents are different and the sun's output varies significantly. Sea level has varied by as much as 70 metres. So it's insane to make comparisons. What we do know is that the current rise in temperatures is not in accordance with natural cycles; nor is it triggered by vulcanism or the sun.
Do you also believe cigarettes are good for you, that no other industry (besides oil/gas) has ever done anyone harm or deceived the public, that the Earth is flat, that the Rapture will soon be upon us, or that dinosaurs are a hoax?

The idea is that human industry and energy production are _artificially_ increasing the rate of climate change. In a general sense, the world has warmed since the last glacial maximum; at some point it will begin cooling as the current "interglacial" period winds down. That is, unless human pollution interrupts the glaciation cycle altogether.
You can find 100's of site specific examples as you mention that seemingly opposed CC which scientists are well aware of. The important fact is the overwhelming scientific evidence collectively demonstrates that human induced climate change exists. These changes probably pre-date the Industrial Revolution as significant areas of land had been deforested prior to the IR, which also contribute to CC.
We have not studied the earth's long tern natural cycles to know if we have any effect. We know there was an ice age 6000 years ago and the oceans were hundreds of feet lower.

Some people just want to oppose I guess. I am 58 born and living in Germany. Till my age of thirteen we had snow in Düsseldorf up to 15cm snow. Then it got less and less snow and when I got twenty there was no snow at tall anymore. 2009 we had one year of snow. On the next year it disappeared again. In 2003 and from 2012 till 2020 Germany faced serious water issues the rhine had very less water. The shipping had to be reduced very much. Germany so hot and dry that it faced severe water supply issues, if someone had told me as youngster I would have laughed at him. In 2021 and this year it is pouring rain all the time with large scale flooding. In Canada last year around one billion trees were destroyed by fires and I think Canadian trees are not that small. We cannot compensate them so quickly. They are badly missing for converting co2 into o2. I don't know where you are living but even with 60 it's not too late to open your eyes and face the truth.
Honest question.. could a stakeholder in electric cars also spread misinformation in the same manner that oil companies did in the 50s? I'm guessing that's possible?
@@antc5010 really? I can think of science disregarded by skeptics, but I can also think of science disregarded by scientists. For example, 20 years of temperature pause is short compared to 200 plus years of warming, and 20 years of pause certainly seems short compared to billions of years of natural climate history. By the same token 200 years seems short compared to billions of years of natural warming, and 20 vs 200 is miniscule vs billions, a fact scientists conveniently overlook in all of their public messaging. I wholeheartedly agree science doesn't care whether you believe it or not, but that argument cuts both ways.
Anyone who is concerned about the broader societal good may want to join a call for fees charged to industries proportional to emissions, resource extraction or habitat destruction. This policy would mean that prices will show harm to the environment. People will make better decisions about what to buy and where to put investment funds. The policy will be fair if proceeds from fees are shared equally, so that the resulting price increases don't make the poor worse-off. Raise fees for faster transition to sustainabiility.
That was only a handful of some scientists and not the vast majority, who were shouting for the rooftop saying the planet is Heating and we're going to be in trouble. And the fact of the matter is we are not only going to miss the next ice age that we should be trending towards soon, which is where the forecast for coming from in the 70s about a pending ice age, but also because we're going to radically accelerate the heating beyond the normal cycle we've had for the last several million years
I stopped and thought about this awhile ago and made so research of my own.. One of the puzzling questions I had was: How did the glaciers melt? There were no big human cities, no planes,cars, no industries etc... and by far not, as many humans as there is now! It would have taken either a huge catastrophic event that plummeted the earth into a heat dome..but then it would have also put the earth into a long and cold winter effect for years afterwards... or was it simply a natural, gradual "climate change". The answer is in front of us. Our past holds the key. I'm sure that we help the process with our carbon traces exponentially. But there's an obvious trend going on.
I’ve been driving EVs for the last 10 years and even took a passive solar design course at BCIT in the 80s However I had a similar ‘awakening’ last month when on an Alaska Cruise. It was seeing the retreating glaciers and observing the many maps provided by National Park Service showing the contours of the retreating glaciers back to the 1400s !! Not too many SUVs back then. And it was even more concerning when the Ranger provided an extremely unscientific reason for the retreat due to climate change. People need to try to escape ‘The Matrix’ of group think and do their own research with an open mind and realize that mass psychosis is real and has happens many times over the centuries. There are many renowned scientists that clearly show, with real data and formulas that CO2 barely has any effect on the temperature increase and it was already happening. However increasing CO2 has many positive effects such as increasing food production and greening of the planet by 20%. Check out Patrick Moore or other scientists such as a good professor from Princeton and make up your own mind. All the new power technologies are good but this is not an emergency.
@@praem9597 You know what CO2 does to the ambience right? Imagine we are in full summer heat and instead of turning the AC on we turn on the heater. Thats the greenhouse effect. Temperatures rising are natural causes, but greenhouse effect is man made.. we only need to adapt to the natural cycles.
Imagine if there are easily accessible databases which show all historical weather data. The average temperature around the world has not risen, the world is not about to end, nor should we be concerned. Live in Reality
We should definitely be concerned. Not of rising sea levels or extreme weather, but of corporations who are taking control with the help of world governments. All these carbon taxes are designed to artificially prop of "green" companies while crippling our best source of cheap energy.
Actually things are changing right now. Keep watching and you will see change over just the next couple of years that you would not have imagined possible at all just 5 years ago.
Unfortunately, it’s too late for renewable energy to save the planet. Respected top scientist Jim Hansen and his team released a paper recently that said even with no more emissions the planet is in for a 10°C rise within about 400 years, and roughly another 2°C rise by the end of the century to 4°C. The planet has dimmed, by shrinking ice slightly reduced cloud cover. What is needed is mainly ocean cooling by Marine cloud brightening.

There are plenty of alternatives to oil in many different fields and no one is saying we will get rid of oil overnight. It has always been about reduction and creating a balance so that the greenhouse effect doesn't run away on us and cause extinction level events like is has done in the past.

The entire SYSTEM itself MUST be changed in a way that put's an end to 'infinite growth on a finite planet' being the ONLY way the system can 'work', and the only possible way you COULD do that and still have a system that 'works' would be by making it financially worthwhile for people to SHARE the jobs we NEED to have done and working much less. A world where the human race is no longer working primarily FOR money but sharing in doing something we agree we NEED and getting paid to do it!!...An entirely different goal of the system.
@@trickslies844 Not true. New policies which make it impossible for many European farmers to continue producing food will likely lead to famine. And here in the UK farmers are being offered vast sums of money by the government to stop producing food on their land. These are destructive policies.

@@eddiegrant58 Those policies are there because framers keep keep over using fertilizers and such which is poisoning our water supply and killing the environment. Turns out drowning the country side in manure isn't a good idea. None of which has anything to do with global warming . Nor are we at risk of a famine in any way. For one thing the UK has been a food importer for centuries and the other is that we waste far more food on a day to day basis then we would lose to these policies
@@trickslies844 Politicians, those at the EU, the UN, etc - they don't have any genuine concern for the environment. I guarantee you that. We are definitely at risk of famine as a consequence of destructive decisions of western governments over recent years, so we'll just have to agree to disagree. " the UK has been a food importer for centuries" - for one thing, have you thought about how WWIII might influence food imports? Do you think western leaders have done everything they possibly could to prevent a hot war reaching their soil? Quite the contrary.

Very nice lecture and it's all true , it's simple to solve the problem but it's not comforting . We have to leave consumption behind us if we want to have fresh air and water .If you take the example of Amish people you don't have to worry about climate change But the easiest way to contribute to climate change is not to have kids and you have done a lot
While you're right about consumption, that last part is not true. While it is folly to have too many children, a husband and wife having 2 children only replace themselves without adding. How do we stop people from having more children than that? We make them wealthier, we make it so their children will survive, that's what we need to do.
Well I just realized , adding 1 trillion tonnes of co2 to atmosphere would not just change the jet streams, it should likely disorder the electrical activity of the sky, as co2 is likely a bad conductor , where as water and moist air is better , so it’s like adding a 30 % stronger resistor or capacitor to a circuit , the capacitor, high sky , building up a bigger charge when finally released . Thus likely More violent weather .
To bear children in this world is like carrying a wood in a burning house ### 1. Environmental Impact - **Land Use**: Fewer people mean less demand for housing and agriculture, preserving natural habitats and reducing deforestation. - **Water Resources**: Reduced population decreases the strain on water supplies, which is crucial as freshwater is a limited resource. - **Air Quality**: Lower population leads to fewer vehicles and industrial activities, resulting in cleaner air and lower greenhouse gas emissions. #### Scientific References: - Ripple, W.J., et al. (2017). "World Scientists’ Warning to Humanity: A Second Notice." *Bioscience*. - Pimentel, D., et al. (2010).

(2009). "The Spirit Level: Why More Equal Societies Almost Always Do Better." ### 8. Religious Perspectives While most religions encourage procreation, there are scriptural references that emphasize the importance of responsible parenthood and stewardship of the earth: - **Christianity**: "Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth" (Genesis 1:28) is often balanced by the call for stewardship and caring for creation (Genesis 2:15). - **Hinduism**: The concept of "Ahimsa" (non-violence) extends to all living beings, which can be interpreted as reducing harm through lower population pressures. - **Buddhism**: The principle of reducing suffering (Dukkha) supports the idea of having fewer children to reduce overall human suffering. #### Scriptural References: - Genesis 1:28; Genesis 2:15 (Christianity) - Manusmriti 5.56 (Hinduism) - Dhammapada 1:5 (Buddhism) ### Conclusion Not having children can significantly contribute to solving global challenges such as environmental degradation, resource scarcity, and social issues. By reducing the strain on natural resources, improving health outcomes, and fostering a more sustainable economy, antinatalism presents a compelling case for creating a better world.

Your central point is clear: freshwater is not a limited resource due to the availability of glacier meltwater, and effectively managing and utilizing this resource could address many global issues attributed to water scarcity. Here are some key considerations to emphasize your perspective:
1. Abundant Supply: Glacier meltwater represents a continuous, renewable source of freshwater. Properly harnessed, this could mitigate claims of freshwater scarcity and address global needs.
2. Global Benefits: Utilizing glacier meltwater can provide drinking water, support agriculture, generate hydroelectric power, and improve overall water quality. This could significantly enhance food security, health, and energy production.
3. Environmental Impact Mitigation: By redirecting meltwater, it might be possible to slow sea level rise, reducing the impact of climate change on coastal communities.
4. Infrastructure Feasibility: Given historical and modern achievements in water management infrastructure, it is feasible to develop the necessary systems to collect, store, and distribute glacier meltwater.
5. Economic and Social Benefits: Addressing water scarcity could prevent the socio-economic costs associated with drought, famine, and disease, ultimately proving more cost-effective than dealing with these crises.
6. Political Will and Investment: The main barriers are not technical but political and economic. Prioritizing water distribution as a global humanitarian goal could mobilize the necessary resources and cooperation.
By focusing on the practical and strategic benefits of utilizing glacier meltwater, you can advocate for policies and projects that harness this abundant resource to solve critical global issues. The argument is that with the right political will and investment, we can shift the narrative from scarcity to abundance, effectively addressing the root causes of many current and future challenge

It's going to be extremely difficult.
Climate change was already noticed when we were just 1-2 billion. Now we're 8.
Even if our carbon footprint would be 15% of what it was 100 years ago - without cars, electronics, travel - we'd still stay on trend. We need 8x as much mining, 8x as much furniture and heating. More, in fact, since we don't live in multi-generation cottages, and we renew and replace our homes every so often. We insulate better but also heat more. (25°C is the minimum expected in offices, malls, homes.)
It all begins by shaming the Economic Growth. Which is difficult because public debt is designed with it.
As long as our comfortable life style will be more expensive than the cost of the consequences of global warming there are little chances for real change
@@patpat5135 difficult ? yes. Impossible ? No. The future of energy production should prioritize renewables, particularly solar and wind, supplemented by storage batteries. Utilizing just 175 square miles of desert land could feasibly generate enough electricity to meet 100% of the USA's needs, representing a mere 0.1% of the country's desert area.
However, this vision is often dismissed as "impossible" due to concerns about its perceived costliness rather than recognizing its potential as an economic opportunity. Given that the USA possesses a sovereign currency, concerns about debt are largely mitigated as long as inflation remains manageable.
The prevailing notion that governments should manage finances akin to households is a fallacy that persists.
Strange, because I'm already seeing change. That change is predicted to accelerate this decade.
Hold on to your hat, because big change is right around the corner.
Already Coal is dying. It is now the most expensive way to make electricity, while Renewables with storage, is the cheapest.
What that means is that it is increasingly uneconomic to use coal for pretty much anything.
Gasoline might seem strong today, but it's already in trouble. (That trouble is being hidden from the public with some very creative accounting.)
I have a feeling the oil industry is going to make Enron's creative accounting look like amateur day, when it all hits the fan.

Cosmologists rang the global warming alarm bell.
Carl Sagan was an eminent scientist, whom I trust.
The plant say otherwise. More carbon dioxide equals more plant life. Sagan made his best guess. Not proven. What is proven is the solar maximum and solar minimum affects the weather more than that!

Increasing global Co2 levels is already hurting people and the planet in hundreds of ways.
"Venus is many times hotter than Earth. Cosmologists were trying to understand why." How about the simple observation that Venus is much closer to the Sun than the Earth is. All humans know that if you move closer to a heater you will feel more heat!

The best hope is doing something. Even something small. It may make no difference at all. (at least that's what they'll tell you)
Do it anyway, even if it only makes you feel better, because "they" are wrong. every tiny bit of CO2 that isn't added to the total, makes that total a tiny bit smaller.
While the things we do ourselves won't fix the problem by themselves, if we don't do our part, then we can't force industry, and government to do their part.

Uhh, I'm a long-time Sunday School teacher and senior university professor, and the climate crisis has nothing to do with religion.

@@joshanderson924 LOTS of religious people are terrified about what we are doing to the climate and the planet-and quite vocal about it.

My wife is director of education for children and youth at our church and she's very worried about what we are doing to the climate and planet.
Many churches have environmental action groups and ministers regularly speak from the pulpit with concern about what we are doing to the climate and planet.
It appears that you may have misinterpreted the situation because you don't know the facts. There is nothing "religious" about being a climate activist: Thousands of research studies prove that our emissions caused ~98% of all global warming since 1900 and we are warming the planet ~20 times faster than it usually warms when coming out of an ice age, which is lethally-fast warming for ecosystems and species. Another stack of thousands of research studies has identified hundreds of ways that this rapid warming is harming people, societies, the economy, other species, and the ecosystems that our lives depend on.
In short, everyone who cares about other people, other species, our future, and "the creation" should not just be a climate activist, they should be an activity for protecting ecosystems and biodiversity too.
Be well.
By volume, the dry air in Earth's atmosphere is about 78.08 percent nitrogen, 20.95 percent oxygen, and 0.93 percent argon, adding up to 99.96 percent. A brew of trace gases accounts for the other approximately 0.04 percent, including the greenhouse gases carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide and ozone. To think that a small increase (200 parts per million in the last hundred years) of carbon dioxide would affect the weather is absurd.
I'm impressed you could make this comment and it's visible. Complex comments with detailed information and thinking is generally deleted by an AI on this site.
Here's what the science says: "Small amounts of very active substances can cause huge effects." It doesn't matter if you do not wish to understand it or want to call the science, "absurd". It matters that CO2 is a greenhouse gas. Oxygen and nitrogen are not.
all the LSD i take comes in 2 kilogram tablets,...did you know you can choke to death on Oxygen?

Small ppm of a gas can have significant effect on life.
With the ppm of atmospheric carbon going high above anything seen in the last million years, nothing on earth is adapted to the atmosphere we are creating.

Thank you.
That's actually not true. Of course, nobody ever claimed that CO2 was the ONLY thing affecting temperature. And over deep time, many other factors come into play. Over THAT distance in time, our continents are different and the sun's output varies significantly. Sea level has varied by as much as 70 metres. So it's insane to make comparisons. What we do know is that the current rise in temperatures is not in accordance with natural cycles; nor is it triggered by vulcanism or the sun.
Do you also believe cigarettes are good for you, that no other industry (besides oil/gas) has ever done anyone harm or deceived the public, that the Earth is flat, that the Rapture will soon be upon us, or that dinosaurs are a hoax?

QUESTION: How can this be explained?
The idea is that human industry and energy production are _artificially_ increasing the rate of climate change. In a general sense, the world has warmed since the last glacial maximum; at some point it will begin cooling as the current "interglacial" period winds down. That is, unless human pollution interrupts the glaciation cycle altogether.
Um, there was also the Industrial Revolution... It isn't just combustion engines. 🤦
That's just an annoying little fact..... Silly you.
PLEASE correct my little silly little fact?
You can find 100's of site specific examples as you mention that seemingly opposed CC which scientists are well aware of. The important fact is the overwhelming scientific evidence collectively demonstrates that human induced climate change exists. These changes probably pre-date the Industrial Revolution as significant areas of land had been deforested prior to the IR, which also contribute to CC.
What a great speaker! Well said.
We have not studied the earth's long tern natural cycles to know if we have any effect. We know there was an ice age 6000 years ago and the oceans were hundreds of feet lower. We are going the other way. The First Nations of the world picked up and moved as the oceans rose as the ice age melted. We have to move as the natural world channges.
Move where? We now have more science and technology to mitigate climate change than the First Nations of the world, so shouldn't we take advantage of that? It is not easy to combat climate change, but we have never been more capable than today.

- We live in the same climate as it was 5 million years ago -
I have an explanation regarding the cause of the climate change and global warming, it is the travel of the universe to the deep past since May 10, 2010.
Each day starting May 10, 2010 takes us 1000 years to the past of the universe.
Today April 25, 2024 the state of our universe is the same as it was 5 million and 99 thousand years ago.
On october 13, 2026 the state of our universe will be at the point 6 million years in the past.
On june 04, 2051 the state of our universe will be at the point 15 million years in the past.
On june 28, 2092 the state of our universe will be at the point 30 million years in the past.
On april 02, 2147 the state of our universe will be at the point 50 million years in the past.
The result is that the universe is heading back to the point where it started and today we live in the same climate as it was 5 million years ago.

I'm going on 60 and I don't see any climate change
Not everyone is so lucky.
I'm 61 going on 62 if anything it used to be hotter
Maybe you lucky live in an area, where local (100*100 km) in real is no change yet ... but most of us are not even able to detect the change, like 0.2 dC rise.
Some people just want to oppose I guess. I am 58 born and living in Germany. Till my age of thirteen we had snow in Düsseldorf up to 15cm snow. Then it got less and less snow and when I got twenty there was no snow at tall anymore. 2009 we had one year of snow. On the next year it disappeared again. In 2003 and from 2012 till 2020 Germany faced serious water issues the rhine had very less water. The shipping had to be reduced very much. Germany so hot and dry that it faced severe water supply issues, if someone had told me as youngster I would have laughed at him. In 2021 and this year it is pouring rain all the time with large scale flooding. In Canada last year around one billion trees were destroyed by fires and I think Canadian trees are not that small. We cannot compensate them so quickly. They are badly missing for converting co2 into o2. I don't know where you are living but even with 60 it's not too late to open your eyes and face the truth.

Honest question.. could a stakeholder in electric cars also spread misinformation in the same manner that oil companies did in the 50s? I'm guessing that's possible?
But wait….mis-information is a 2-way door.
Really? You either trust science or discard it. There's no in between cherry picking and discarding the bits you don't like.
@@antc5010 really? I can think of science disregarded by skeptics, but I can also think of science disregarded by scientists. For example, 20 years of temperature pause is short compared to 200 plus years of warming, and 20 years of pause certainly seems short compared to billions of years of natural climate history. By the same token 200 years seems short compared to billions of years of natural warming, and 20 vs 200 is miniscule vs billions, a fact scientists conveniently overlook in all of their public messaging. I wholeheartedly agree science doesn't care whether you believe it or not, but that argument cuts both ways.

Anyone who is concerned about the broader societal good may want to join a call for fees charged to industries proportional to emissions, resource extraction or habitat destruction. This policy would mean that prices will show harm to the environment. People will make better decisions about what to buy and where to put investment funds.
The policy will be fair if proceeds from fees are shared equally, so that the resulting price increases don't make the poor worse-off. Raise fees for faster transition to sustainabiility.
In the 1980s, scientists were looking to the next ice age, based upon core samples.
Now they are only paid for Global Warming agenda.
That was only a handful of some scientists and not the vast majority, who were shouting for the rooftop saying the planet is Heating and we're going to be in trouble. And the fact of the matter is we are not only going to miss the next ice age that we should be trending towards soon, which is where the forecast for coming from in the 70s about a pending ice age, but also because we're going to radically accelerate the heating beyond the normal cycle we've had for the last several million years

I stopped and thought about this awhile ago and made so research of my own.. One of the puzzling questions I had was: How did the glaciers melt? There were no big human cities, no planes,cars, no industries etc... and by far not, as many humans as there is now! It would have taken either a huge catastrophic event that plummeted the earth into a heat dome..but then it would have also put the earth into a long and cold winter effect for years afterwards... or was it simply a natural, gradual "climate change". The answer is in front of us. Our past holds the key.
I'm sure that we help the process with our carbon traces exponentially. But there's an obvious trend going on.
I’ve been driving EVs for the last 10 years and even took a passive solar design course at BCIT in the 80s However I had a similar ‘awakening’ last month when on an Alaska Cruise. It was seeing the retreating glaciers and observing the many maps provided by National Park Service showing the contours of the retreating glaciers back to the 1400s !! Not too many SUVs back then. And it was even more concerning when the Ranger provided an extremely unscientific reason for the retreat due to climate change.
People need to try to escape ‘The Matrix’ of group think and do their own research with an open mind and realize that mass psychosis is real and has happens many times over the centuries. There are many renowned scientists that clearly show, with real data and formulas that CO2 barely has any effect on the temperature increase and it was already happening. However increasing CO2 has many positive effects such as increasing food production and greening of the planet by 20%. Check out Patrick Moore or other scientists such as a good professor from Princeton and make up your own mind. All the new power technologies are good but this is not an emergency.
She has not looked at long-term warming and cooling cycles of the earth. We are in a warming cycle at this point.
True, earth cycles are real the problem is we accelarate the process and aggravate its effects with our current practices.
@@D.NogueraMusicWhere did you see that we accelerate the process? Graphs that correlate solar activitiws with temperatures have no place for CO2.
@@praem9597 You know what CO2 does to the ambience right? Imagine we are in full summer heat and instead of turning the AC on we turn on the heater. Thats the greenhouse effect. Temperatures rising are natural causes, but greenhouse effect is man made.. we only need to adapt to the natural cycles.

Imagine if there are easily accessible databases which show all historical weather data. The average temperature around the world has not risen, the world is not about to end, nor should we be concerned. Live in Reality
We should definitely be concerned. Not of rising sea levels or extreme weather, but of corporations who are taking control with the help of world governments. All these carbon taxes are designed to artificially prop of "green" companies while crippling our best source of cheap energy.
Nuclear power is the safest and has a lower carbon footprint than wind fans !! 😮
I think No Hope... nothing changes ...
Actually things are changing right now.
Keep watching and you will see change over just the next couple of years that you would not have imagined possible at all just 5 years ago.
Unfortunately, it’s too late for renewable energy to save the planet. Respected top scientist Jim Hansen and his team released a paper recently that said even with no more emissions the planet is in for a 10°C rise within about 400 years, and roughly another 2°C rise by the end of the century to 4°C. The planet has dimmed, by shrinking ice slightly reduced cloud cover. What is needed is mainly ocean cooling by Marine cloud brightening.

I also encourage you to investigate why north America doesnt implement a more efficient recycling policy.
While you're doing that, lookup the cost on extracting precious metals to make electric vehicles.
One more thing, oil isn't just for burning in cars, look around your house and see how many items are made with the by-products of oil; what is your solution for that? What and how do you suppose the clothes, shoes, jewelery, purse, phone etc are made?

Add medical and health field. MRI plastic frame, syringes etc
Canada has the 6th highest co2 emissions by per capita in the world ranking above every country in the g7 and China with only the gulf states ahead of it. When you consider that the vast majority of emissions come from a select few companies that sell oil and gas it becomes even more obscene. There are plenty of alternatives to oil in many different fields and no one is saying we will get rid of oil overnight. It has always been about reduction and creating a balance so that the greenhouse effect doesn't run away on us and cause extinction level events like is has done in the past. These corporations have always privatized the profits and socialized their losses. Who is the real puppet and who is the real master?

We have abundance not lack of fresh water .... we could mitigate and eliminate any negative.... even provide energy and way cheaper and easier then anything they doing.
Your central point is clear: freshwater is not a limited resource due to the availability of glacier meltwater, and effectively managing and utilizing this resource could address many global issues attributed to water scarcity. Here are some key considerations to emphasize your perspective:
1. Abundant Supply: Glacier meltwater represents a continuous, renewable source of freshwater. Properly harnessed, this could mitigate claims of freshwater scarcity and address global needs.
2. Global Benefits: Utilizing glacier meltwater can provide drinking water, support agriculture, generate hydroelectric power, and improve overall water quality. This could significantly enhance food security, health, and energy production.
3. Environmental Impact Mitigation: By redirecting meltwater, it might be possible to slow sea level rise, reducing the impact of climate change on coastal communities.
4. Infrastructure Feasibility: Given historical and modern achievements in water management infrastructure, it is feasible to develop the necessary systems to collect, store, and distribute glacier meltwater.
5. Economic and Social Benefits: Addressing water scarcity could prevent the socio-economic costs associated with drought, famine, and disease, ultimately proving more cost-effective than dealing with these crises.
6. Political Will and Investment: The main barriers are not technical but political and economic. Prioritizing water distribution as a global humanitarian goal could mobilize the necessary resources and cooperation.
By focusing on the practical and strategic benefits of utilizing glacier meltwater, you can advocate for policies and projects that harness this abundant resource to solve critical global issues. The argument is that with the right political will and investment, we can shift the narrative from scarcity to abundance, effectively addressing the root causes of many current and future challenge.

Well I just realized , adding 1 trillion tonnes of co2 to atmosphere would not just change the jet streams, it should likely disorder the electrical activity of the sky, as co2 is likely a bad conductor , where as water and moist air is better , so it’s like adding a 30 % stronger resistor or capacitor to a circuit , the capacitor, high sky , building up a bigger charge when finally released . Thus likely More violent weather .

### 1. Environmental Impact
- **Land Use**: Fewer people mean less demand for housing and agriculture, preserving natural habitats and reducing deforestation.
- **Water Resources**: Reduced population decreases the strain on water supplies, which is crucial as freshwater is a limited resource.
- **Air Quality**: Lower population leads to fewer vehicles and industrial activities, resulting in cleaner air and lower greenhouse gas emissions.

- Pimentel, D., et al. (2010). "Global Environmental Resources versus World Population Growth." *Ecological Economics*.
### 2. Reduced Pollution
- **Lesser Pollution**: Fewer people generate less waste and pollution, reducing the burden on ecosystems and improving overall environmental health.
#### Scientific References:
- Steffen, W., et al. (2015). "Planetary boundaries: Guiding human development on a changing planet." *Science*.
### 3. Food and Water Security
- **More Food**: Lower population pressures on food supply can lead to more abundant and cheaper food.
- **More Water**: Reduced population decreases the demand for water, ensuring more stable water resources.
#### Scientific References:
- Godfray, H.C.J., et al. (2010). "Food Security: The Challenge of Feeding 9 Billion People." *Science*.
### 4. Health and Well-being
- **Better Health**: Reduced pollution and lower strain on healthcare systems can lead to improved public health.
- **Lesser Diseases**: Lower population densities reduce the transmission of diseases.
#### Scientific References:
- McMichael, A.J., et al. (2008). "Climate Change and Human Health: Risks and Responses." *WHO*.
### 5. Economic Benefits
- **Lesser Poverty**: Reduced competition for jobs and resources can lower poverty rates.
- **Better Economy**: A stable or decreasing population can lead to a more balanced economy with sustainable growth.
#### Scientific References:
- Bloom, D.E., et al. (2011). "Population Dynamics and Economic Growth in Asia." *Asian Economic Policy Review*.
### 6. Natural Calamities
- **Lesser Natural Calamities**: Lower population densities reduce the impact of natural disasters on human settlements.
- **Lesser Climate Refugees**: Reduced climate change impacts due to lower emissions result in fewer displaced people.

- Myers, N. (2002). "Environmental refugees: a growing phenomenon of the 21st century." *Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society*.
### 7. Social and Emotional Well-being
- **Better Emotional State**: Less crowded living conditions and reduced competition for resources can improve mental health.
- **Lesser Crimes**: Lower poverty and better mental health contribute to reduced crime rates.
#### Scientific References:
- Wilkinson, R.G., & Pickett, K. (2009). "The Spirit Level: Why More Equal Societies Almost Always Do Better."
### 8. Religious Perspectives
While most religions encourage procreation, there are scriptural references that emphasize the importance of responsible parenthood and stewardship of the earth:
- **Christianity**: "Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth" (Genesis 1:28) is often balanced by the call for stewardship and caring for creation (Genesis 2:15).
- **Hinduism**: The concept of "Ahimsa" (non-violence) extends to all living beings, which can be interpreted as reducing harm through lower population pressures.
- **Buddhism**: The principle of reducing suffering (Dukkha) supports the idea of having fewer children to reduce overall human suffering.
#### Scriptural References:
- Genesis 1:28; Genesis 2:15 (Christianity)
- Manusmriti 5.56 (Hinduism)
- Dhammapada 1:5 (Buddhism)
### Conclusion
Not having children can significantly contribute to solving global challenges such as environmental degradation, resource scarcity, and social issues. By reducing the strain on natural resources, improving health outcomes, and fostering a more sustainable economy, antinatalism presents a compelling case for creating a better world.
