The world uses around 100,000,000 barrels of oil PER DAY. And it's selling for ~ $70/barrel today. $7 BILLION dollars each and every day is being spent on oil at current prices. That can buy a lot of politicians around the world.

To achieve "Zero emissions" You would have to eradicate humanity. Zero emissions, lol you breath out emissions you fart emissions, so how would an oil company, or any industry achieve such a thing? I think you are living in a fantasy world driven by thoughts of magic and faith based industry. "I just prayed for it and I got a big mac! YAY!"
Waging a "War on Climate Change" in 1982 would've annihilated the economy. A majority of Americans born past this point would've been born into poverty. No course of action before the year 2000 was economical, given the massive cost difference between burning cheap fossil fuels and utilizing the underdeveloped clean technologies of the time on a scale that would meet energy demand.
"Lol, so many ldiots blame feudalism, as if capitalism will make anything better" - You in 1350 AD Why do you think oil companies lobbied government? Oh that's right, because they're LEGALLY OBLIGATED to make as much money for their shareholders as possible. Executives could literally be punished by the law for not fulfilling these duties.

@HunterBidensCrackPipe how many times do you have to miss read my comments before you understand that most people don't want socialism and neither do I?
@HunterBidensCrackPipe That's just not as true as it once was. Americans work more hours than any other workers in the entire world and almost 50% of those who are employed can't support themselves on their current income. Housing prices have increased astronomically yet wages are pretty stagnant. Depression and obesity is rising in the United States. You could say that's because Americans are spoiled and able to eat a lot of high caloric foods but a huge part of that is the large amount of fatty foods and highly processed foods that are poisoning a lot of us. We're living through a drought right now and groundwater sources like aquifers are going to run out so on top of the housing bubble that's going to pop we are going to have major water shortages within our lifetime. Just because we as Americans have the luxury of an ignoring a lot of bigger problems going on in the world doesn't mean that we things that can be vastly improved within our country.
Wow, it just blows my mind everytimes I read something about the USA. My country is a poor developing country, yet we know that towards clean energy is the only way, and we're putting a lot of effort into that.

Please afford to elaborate, "@@hypatia9212"? In as much words as you require. I really wish to learn, and would even be willing to amplify your explanation - based on its logical-flow.
Even as a kid, I was never really fond of fossil fuel companies. I remember having visitors from bp and shell come to my high school to promote their work program and encourage students to come into the fossil fuel industry. It seems to be rewarding (aka you could make decent money). Yet, I didn't find it attractive. I guess my gut impression of them came true - they were a dirty industry.
Good choice. I was offered a $140k annual salary and turned it down to make toilet paper. No regrets. Far less pay, but far more rewarding; and well, someone needs to do it, otherwise it's last year all over again. Only on a daily basis.
You all should thank god for fossil fuels. They have saved SO many lives and transformed our lives to comfort. Have you hypocrites given up using them? I thought not.
@@TheBandit7613 you are literally the "you keep participating in society" meme. How would you propose people stop using fossil fuels when most of our electricity comes from coal? We can't control that. The coal lobby is massive and they make sure to downplay the importance of renewables and nuclear. The fossil fuel industry has stifled the development of electric cars for decades, making them just recently available but still very expensive. The truth is that you are espousing what this video is saying and I'm not entirely sure you're not a bad actor. The average person has very, very little control over the usage of fossil fuels. 7 cruise ships produce as much carbon as all the cars in Europe. I've never taken a cruise in my life.

They know, no matter what, the Earth is going to warm. We are still emerging from a deep ice age. The warming will not stop until there is no ice anywhere. Not even at the poles. This is the normal climate of the Earth. For most of Earth's history, there is no ice, anywhere. There is no climate crisis. It's made up. The Earth is getting greener, it's a fact.

As a child in the San Fernando Valley, 50 yrs ago, I remember the 'smog alerts' that happened on a pretty regular basis in the summer time. We'd be outside playing, and all of a sudden an air raid siren would go off, sounding very much like the ones used in WWII. When we heard the sirens, we had to go inside, close all of the windows and turn on the air conditioners to filter the air. The smog was so heavy over the Los Angeles Basin, you couldn't see the mountains from across the valley, and sunsets were always blood red. Los Angeles and California have achieved miracles since then in clearing up the air pollution, but they still have a ways to go. We all have a ways to go. But, the clearing of the air in the San Fernando Valley gives me hope. If it can be done there, maybe it can be done everywhere else.

Not really
They would just say "carbon neutral by 2020" and then have done nothing 30 years later.
The problem is the past 30 years is when the majority of the emissions have been released and not by the west.
Most of the companies are state owned like Aramco, Iran company, Qatar or India or China state owned
The west can blame capitalism but even if state owned..this would of been worse

Waging a "War on Climate Change" in 1982 would've annihilated the economy. A majority of Americans born past this point would've been born into poverty.

No one is arguing for socialism. You just projected your idea of what someone who disagrees with capitalism would say. Do you honestly think the system is fine as-is? Because if so, you probably need to layoff the Prozac and horse dewormer big guy.
@HunterBidensCrackPipe Pure (fair trading and companies paying taxes and less lies and libbying) capitalism, sure. However, were in late stage capitalism, where mega corporations have stripped most of the govt. power to do things independently.
Funny how your reflex is to think everyone wants socialism, when in reality most people just want major tweaks to the broken parts of capitalism or to introduce SOME socialist policies while maintaining a capitalist republic.
But go ahead and let the pro capitalism propoganda keep you screams ng about socialists!
@HunterBidensCrackPipe how many times do you have to miss read my comments before you understand that most people don't want socialism and neither do I?
@HunterBidensCrackPipe That's just not as true as it once was. Americans work more hours than any other workers in the entire world and almost 50% of those who are employed can't support themselves on their current income. Housing prices have increased astronomically yet wages are pretty stagnant.
Depression and obesity is rising in the United States. You could say that's because Americans are spoiled and able to eat a lot of high caloric foods but a huge part of that is the large amount of fatty foods and highly processed foods that are poisoning a lot of us.
We're living through a drought right now and groundwater sources like aquifers are going to run out so on top of the housing bubble that's going to pop we are going to have major water shortages within our lifetime.
Just because we as Americans have the luxury of an ignoring a lot of bigger problems going on in the world doesn't mean that we things that can be vastly improved within our country.
Wow, it just blows my mind everytimes I read something about the USA. My country is a poor developing country, yet we know that towards clean energy is the only way, and we're putting a lot of effort into that.
Well have fun staying poor then.

Far less pay, but far more rewarding; and well, someone needs to do it, otherwise it's last year all over again. Only on a daily basis.

@@TheBandit7613 you are literally the "you keep participating in society" meme.
How would you propose people stop using fossil fuels when most of our electricity comes from coal? We can't control that. The coal lobby is massive and they make sure to downplay the importance of renewables and nuclear.
The fossil fuel industry has stifled the development of electric cars for decades, making them just recently available but still very expensive.
The truth is that you are espousing what this video is saying and I'm not entirely sure you're not a bad actor. The average person has very, very little control over the usage of fossil fuels. 7 cruise ships produce as much carbon as all the cars in Europe. I've never taken a cruise in my life.

We'd be outside playing, and all of a sudden an air raid siren would go off, sounding very much like the ones used in WWII. When we heard the sirens, we had to go inside, close all of the windows and turn on the air conditioners to filter the air. The smog was so heavy over the Los Angeles Basin, you couldn't see the mountains from across the valley, and sunsets were always blood red. Los Angeles and California have achieved miracles since then in clearing up the air pollution, but they still have a ways to go. We all have a ways to go. But, the clearing of the air in the San Fernando Valley gives me hope. If it can be done there, maybe it can be done everywhere else.

Or, they think driving a prius gives them moral high ground even though it contributes more co2 before it comes off the lot than that SUV in 3 years.
Sure, the fossil fuel industry is culpable, but consumers allowed them to be.
In Austria, on the Shell gastation they re actually even asking you for a CO2 balance fund when paying the gas bill.
ya but they wont put that carbon tax on the oil company shareholder proffits where it belongs

If you call yourself a scientist and say climate isn't changing, maybe it's time to retire, or wake up
hey let's be real, no matter how genius they are, scientist are just as human as you are, and science didn't stop you from lying, science help you how to lie better, the one that told you not to lie is religion and nowadays people call it bullshit, ....and what do you expect from this scientist who trust science so much?
or learn how to read the numbers of a meter
Yea I wonder who was polluting the planet during The Ice Age era...
Vice strikes again with another incredible example of journalism
When greed becomes a priority within our government, that’s when we need to start evaluating who we vote and work for.

Here's a dirty truth, we cant just stop using oil and transition to electric energy.
Why not ?? we can easily transition to 60-80 % to renewables within 10-15 years. Solar & wind is already cost competitive with natural gas/coal power plants. As for electricity storage a lot of tech has been developed. all of them are now being deployed at scale
Not "just". It's going to be extremely difficult and take a long time. It may take more technology that we don't even currently have.
Or our civilization may totally collapse if we don't manage that transition well.
...As it is, I expect we're going to lose hundreds of millions to crop loss, storms, heat, ocean rise, and wars over resources.
@@PK-tt5kk it's not that easy especially for developing countries.....
@@PK-tt5kk Where are you going to get the raw materials to build all that? I'll give you a hint, massive mining machines powered by diesel. Massive refineries and factories, all powered by fossil fuels. If it wasn't for oil, there would be no plastic and no advanced composite materials.
Without oil, all modern pharmaceuticals go away.
The easiest way you can make a difference in the world is to vote with your food dollar and shake the hand that feeds you.

Zero doubt crypto is so money making investment
This is the kind of information that we don’t get from most youtubers..
I could invest in Crypto but always got confused by it’s volatility in nature
Trading crypto with Michael is life changing moves

Poor people think about what they can buy with their money, Rich people think about what they can invest in with their money 💰💰💰;
The rich stay rich by investing and investing without stopping then the poor stay poor by spending like the
Rich but yet not investing like the rich
Investing is a stepping stone to success, investing is what create wealth.
The best thing to do in this period is to invest in silver and crypto
The rich become richer by spending like the poor and investing None stop, While the poor stay poor by spending like the rich yet not making any investment
Trading crypto has been a lucrative way of making money 💰 💰
Problem: CEO types are protected by the Corporate Sheild, there's no punishment for the lies, none. Take away Corporate Sheild end of problem.
What’s the corporate shield
@@michaelgilmore4267 Corps are people under the law. That's why corps can be sued. And, when sued it's the worker that gets hurt, not the corp officers. But, corp officers can manipulate stocks (stock buybacks) and get a bonus when corp goes bankrupte. They are protected, thus the corp shield.
@@danpress7745 thanks!
They are literally laughing at us. Reminds me of that movie 'Thank you for smoking'.
Professional unbiased scientists: accurately predict what will happen.
CEOs and politicians: na that won't happen.
And the US listened to the latter. That kind of clarifies our pandemic response tbh
Say what you want about other countries, but the US government and companies like these are the most crook of them all. As viewers and consumers what can we do next?
Make use of the second Amendment.

Kudos for Vice for giving this top documentary and also provided English subtitile for hearing disabilities to watch it. Thank you very much Vice.
This is something I would take up arms and be willing to fight in a war to stop it, even as a passavist. Mother earth is our only life line right now, and oil and natural gas companies are hanging our mother by a noose for all of us to see.
Edit; typo.
At this point, does the saying get to high ground and migrate where the predictions state you can live and grow food in the soil sound Alarmist?
Reminds me of that 1 episode in Rick and Morty where Jerry goes to pluto.
11:09 "the city Is fighting back" then shows a guy building a 3ft high bank made of sand to keep the sea out 🤣
There’s not much a single dude can do
I saw a documentary where the literal scientists who the tobacco industry used as public faces to lie about the health issues of their products were then also hired by the oil and gas industry to do the same. Some people really should be up on crimes against humanity for this.
F this industry
Suing those companies is only making poor and working class people pay more because the companies will raise prices. The only solution is hard jail time or close up shop and Seizure of financials funds/ assets.
Seizing financial assets is one way to get businesses to run away and never come back.
And stop criminal activity Maybe even stop crimes against humanity.
This boils my blood! So heartbreaking 💔 our poor planet 🌎🌎🌎🌎
finally the focus is slowly shifting to companys that have the actual blame and resources to do anything, not the average random person.. if only people listened and acted
10:09 - What an Embarrassingly Naive approach... When people see those advertisements(or advertisements of any sort)... Do you think they are going to stop driving.... or keep on with it?
It isn't just about driving, but about the transportation needed for all of the useless crap we buy - much of it ended up in landfills 2 or 3 years later. Then, take a look at how fat we are (overconsumption) and also how much food we waste. The feed is transported, the harvesting machines require fuel...And, why do we need such large vehicles and ,yes, we could drive less. EVERYone plays a role. Even the beaten wife plays a role in getting beaten by staying with her abuser. Taking personal responsibility isn't a bad thing, but it feels better to point the finger at someone else.
@@lechsiz1642 That's humans.... It's "All About Me"... and has certainly proven to be so...
@@lechsiz1642 everyone is equal. But some more than others 🤣. Tell me what is the carbon footprint of the beaten wives compared to the carbon footprint of the military industrial complex Lechsi?
“If you ever feel bad about yourself,
it’s probably capitalism.”
That popped in my head watching this.
Lmao. Go live in China, Cuba, or some other Marxist country before complaining about capitalism.
@@bullyboy131 wow the assumptions coming out’ve you are outrageous and aggressive..
did you think you did something there? Do you like cuddle capitalism at night or something like why you so mad?😭
You can see an know how bad capitalism has fueled these giant companies & corporations that wreak havoc on our environment with zero second thought or consequences -
ACROSS THE WORLD BRO.😂
and not hate capitalism or be “complaining”. Do you not understand the manipulation of media these giant companies use to mess with you psychologically into buying things? I’m guessing you don’t know what marketing is.. I’m also guessing you didn’t actually watch this video an have lived under a rock or else you’d know about the irreversible damage these big oil companies, along with other giant companies & corporations have done to our environment due to being fueled by capitalism 101.. What do you not understand about climate change effecting the WHOLE world? It’s not just in America.. This is our planet and we only have one, if we ruin it there is no going back… and then what? Where will your precious capitalism be then?? No one can sit there and say capitalism has been 1000% solely beneficial, honest, transparent, responsible, and without hurt to people, places, things and animals.. no one can say that no matter where in the world you live, because again - it’s effected the climate which intern effects the WHOLE ENTIRE WORLD. No one said anything about taking capitalism away. Changing how it operates and how us as consumers operate to make sure we don’t do further damage to the planet? Yeah, yes. That’s definitely something that needs to be explored way more and way faster than it’s happening.
@@Bellaaaaaaaxxo Wow. I'm not reading all of this. Lol. Japan and South Korea is a capitalist country. While you THINK capitalism ruins other nations Marxism DOES ruin it's people. People don't migrate to Marxists countries. Lmao.
What’s hilarious to is that it’s not even that long of a comment.😂 and you cannot comment on video you didn’t watch, then reply to a comment you didn’t read - with blatant assumptions that are completely false.
@@Bellaaaaaaaxxo Not a long comment in your opinion. Lmao.
Maybe you should mention how China, India, Russia etc. doesn’t give a crap about fossil fuel or the environment
Everyone reading this, i want you to scroll up and lie this video right now to get this video to blow up. This report is so amazing.

Whats disgusting is that this was done by very few people. 40 years of greed later and here all 7 billion of us are.
This has happened countless times and will continue to happen as long as we live under capitalism. Companies will always put their profits above everything and anything else, no matter the cost to humans and humanity
by law they are beholden to shareholders and nothing else. we made the rules they play by, so lets change the rules.
@@nodustechnologies3989 completely agree
if you mess with oil companies we will have a lot more problems to deal with, like feeding ourselves. oil is connected to everything.
Its so amazing how God created perfectly balanced system and gave us this brain and intelligence with right and wrong senses
If you mess up with the balance there will be consequences and you will pay for it
The worst part is when the wildlife suffers and dies. Wildfires and oil spills are the worst. If nature disposes of a few billion humans ASAP, that would be a plus for the wildlife and the remaining humans.
Don't worry. Nature is working on it. Overpopulation always leads to a smackdown. Our technology has allowed us to delay it, but it's inevitable.
I watched this on my iphone in my V8 lifted SUV truck while it was parked in my driveway running and burning fossil fuels the whole time.
Good job making such a long video vice *thumbs up*
Governments: The earth is warming. Give us your money and we’ll change the weather. Yeah…no.
You need to learn more. Corporations made this mess.
Get educated on this please
Yes the gov does no polluting. If only we have communism to solve it
@@pkn4t3 solution to global warming while meeting our energy needs. Go…
It starts with our government putting their time, effort, and money into solar and wind energy, instead of building more and more pipelines for oil. We are like cavemen stuck in the past because people want BIG pockets.
