You know what else has disappeared from the ocean ever since Man began industrialization? Driftwood. Whenever it storms trees fall down and are dragged down by the river to the ocean. Over time they decompose, sharing valuable nutrients to the nutrient-starved surface. Furthermore they serve as stable foundation for ocean dwelling plants like seaweed to attach themselves to, not to mention all the bivalves. But ever since the industrialization Man has been clearing up the waterways, preventing fallen trees from entering the sea and potentially blocking shipping lanes. And as a result the oceans became just a bit more barren. Furthermore plastic trash has taken the role that driftwood used to have, becoming artificial islands in the ocean with disastrous consequences.
Mmmmm, it would help a bit if you gave a justification for plastic trash having disastrous consequences. I only know of sea turtles mistaking thin plastic bags as jellyfish and plastic rings catching on swimming animals. Surely some animals can swallow chunks of driftwood. Do the new havens offered by these new floating objects outweigh their harms?
@@izaakaz6863 "Furthermore plastic trash has taken the role that driftwood used to have, becoming artificial islands in the ocean with disastrous consequences." To be clear, my position is that plastic trash floating in the ocean has become habitat for the same marine creatures that make use of driftwood. I'm pretty sure driftwood is better for them than plastic, but the plastic is better than nothing. It's a complicated issue whose consequences are not entirely disastrous or even entirely understood. I understood you just fine, I just don't agree with you.
The idea that scientists go into an experiment knowing the outcome is a fallacy. Performing a experiment on a small scale in a lab isnt the same a large scale. Frankly, I'm in the camp that we start a reforestation of multiple areas that have been damaged due to deforestation all over the world.
That’s not as easily done because no matter how hard we try those trees we plant another set of trees of the same nature is cut down at the rate we are going we are going to see another Ice Age which is what happens every time the Earth ecosystem falls apart the Earth has seen six Ice Ages according to scientists so if we don’t do something even experimental fast the Earth will enter a new Ice Age that could last a good million years or worse Earth becomes another Mars
@@zemrocku1287 correct which is why some species should be avoided all together and we should move to using something else like bamboo or hemp to replace them.

9:09 I don't know what that is a chart of but if the scale on the right is pH then it's showing that the pH has risen over the years not decreased, which means that the ocean is getting more base not more acid. 7,0 is neutral 1.0 is strong acid and 10 is strong base.

Global temperature shifts over thousands of years is normal and, while still jarring to ecosystems, allows more time for things to evolve- not just species but ecosystem relationships.

Hold up, wait a minute, something ain't right now. Has anyone stopped to consider that CO2 levels are rising nearly equally to the rate at which deforestation is occuring?
But that involves land, people own land, or at least burn then claim that land, then there were all the Australian wild fires and the Canadian wild fires, those would require serious government action to control. Not to even begin mentioning any that are started by humans. Here we have… oceans /could/ absorb CO2, no one owns the oceans, obvious choice for someone that wants to pretend to care about the climate.
It doesn't work that way, deforestation is not the issue. When a tree dies naturally, or is burned to ash, most of the carbon is released back into the atmosphere. Using trees as fuel is green because the carbon is already in circulation. For every tree you burn up you need to grow an equal number of green mass to achieve equilibrium. Therefore it's mostly fine as long as you regrow the tree. However, burning carbon-carrying rocks, coal and oil releases trapped carbon into the atmosphere. Meaning, to achieve equilibrium, you have to not only grow the tree, but bury it underground so the carbon is removed from circulation. To give you an idea, imagine that for every liter of fuel you burn in your car, you have to grow and then bury several cubic feet of lumber.
@@TheLordboki there are studies that have shown that carbon really isn't a big problem. That's why so many progressive green weenies have move to other natural elements, like nitrogen.

In respects to reflecting back sunlight into space, since all the natural reflecting are melting away, how about if all roof tops world wide are reflective white. Just a thought to see how that would work out for the climate
Good video. I think you should look into the climate cycles. I found that we are not talking more about how the planet has termination events and we are still in the tail end of an ice age and that the planet outside of Antarctica will have no more northern glaciers. Still the more we talk the more we share and the more we learn.
What regular temp, the earth was a snowball at one point and molten hell at another, mankind has walk the earth thru two ice ages so not sure what you mean normal temp
Ah yes, adding salt to rain. That's exactly what we need. To make rain, one of if not THE largest source of potable water on our planet, into saltwater. And let's also block/reduce sunlight. You know, that thing that makes solar panels work and let's plants live. Nothing could possibly go wrong with that idea.
Yes,Increase in CO2 is the main problem leading to global warming & climate change ! Most Inspirational & Unique idea! But Mother Nature seems formidable in her views ! Thanks ❤
I think the big problem is that these scientists want to straight up do large scale tests WITHOUT making any considerations to what could happen. I understand climate change is a problem but the fact little proper thought is put in is incredibly dangerous.
Surely there are ways to conduct these experiments without actually doing it in the ocean, risking damage to the environment? Recreating the conditions within the ocean in a tank or something, and conducting the experiments there. A terrarium of oceanic environments for the purposes of experimentation. That way it can be conducted safely.
Styrofoam pellets on the water surface. What I do know is Al Gore's family lost its oil fields in Venezuela to nationalization. I've always wondered how much that had to do with his concern for global warming. Though we're are at the end of an ice age and soon to begin a new ice age.
If phytoplankton were artificially added, followed by a huge sun spot, the result could be excessive cooling, maybe even in a new ice age. Maybe solar desalination and fog capture could allow massive tree planting in the world's deserts which would increase CO2 absorption. Eventually the transpiration of moisture would lead to cloud formation and increased rainfall, which in turn would allow part of the desalinated water could then water new trees. Probably massive tree planting would be more cost effective than converting to electric vehicles since mining is energy intensive, and every aspect of EV ownership is costly. Natural gas vehicles are more efficient and extremely durable. Recycling metal is extremely energy intensive. Having vehicles that last for 800,000 miles is very significant to energy expenditure! Methane can be added to the fuel, keeping it from being released into the atmosphere. Solar panels require mined rare metals and cannot be recycled economically. In deserts, passive solar using black tanks and mirrors could run desalination plants, with wind power on the coast to pump the sea water into pipes. The tanks and mirrors would provide much needed shade which could allow more plants to grow for livestock such as rabbits or edible giant rats which would not damage the equipment by climbing. Enclosing wires in metal would be necessary regardless because wild rodents also chew destructively. Instead of wasting money on E technology, it would be better to help all nations decrease emissions from coal burning power plants and vehicle engines without pollution reduction features. China, India and some of the larger developing nations cause 90% of greenhouse gases and air pollution. These countries need access to open source economical improvements to their energy infrastructure and machinery. Every dollar spent in those countries would have 10 times more benefit than saddling Western countries with debt for alternative energy sources which are not technologically ready for mass adoption.
My problem with trying to fix our climate is that other people will see this as an opportunity to argue to either go easy on emissions allowing them to increase their footprint. AND/OR becoming relaxed forgetting we most likely hit our limit on how much we can reverse. Usually steering away from emissions free environment. One hand are people trying to repair our world. On the other are people trying to profit off of it as much as possible.
Trying to fix the climate could make things even worse. Earth is a living organism. Any intervention, large or small, can result in natural disasters as the Earth regulates itself. What we need to do is reduce human influence on natural cycles by reducing pollution and minimizing urban encroachment into nature. And of course, focus on how to adapt better to the changes that are coming.

I have done a course that explains in dept the reactions involve with carbon dioxide and the ocean. From the carbonic acid to the dissolved calcium in the water. Yet i still dont believe we humans put out enough carbon to be detrimental. Also wouldnt it be better to grow trees. The limiting factor of tree growth is phosphorus. If the land gets enough phosphorus the increase carbon dioxide in the air should shift the equilibrium to significantly more tree growth.

Then i would like to pinpoint the fact that an ideal and constant temperature would help even more the Great Cause of the environment.
Finally, although the whole project was very well introduced here, i think there should be more specific data about these molecules, and how exactly it affects our lives.
Congrats for making this video quite enjoyable =]
Hey, we already had a drought here in Africa. So don't mess this up guys
Ty for the content
I graduated in 1984 the window has closed several times since then. When the dinosaurs roamed the earth co2 in the atmosphere was around 1200 ppm we are at around 400 now I think we are ok. 😊
The sun was only 3/4 as large as today though.
@@davidperrier6149 I am going research that so you saying because the sun was smaller the earth temps weren’t hitting 90 degrees kind of odd because reptiles do not function well in cool temperatures
@@davidperrier6149 Size doesn't matter, only energy output, was energy output 3/4s? Also source, I've spent 30 minutes searching for that factoid and haven't found it.
I actually took many geology classes and am still in college. News flash dinosaurs are completely different than animals today… we aren’t as big as them. Also the environment back then was actually able to handle high levels of co2 and back then was at least 5 TIMES HOTTER. I’m not sure about you but no human can survive in an environment like that now.
@@AlarSenpu What kind of temperature measurement is FIVE TIMES HOTTER Like instead of 30 celsius, 150 celsius and all the water boiled off?
Really like your videos 👍 Hope you keep going with that.
this is one of the best channels on yt
I will hit that thumbs up button every time you do not say we owe you, fair?
Don't you just love how American scientists just love to carry out their experiments with "unknown" consequences in some one else's Backyard, in this case NE Canadian waters.
Who the hell lives in northern Canada?
@@mrfigaloopierre9610 Northern Canadians
@@GaetsKrop It's only like 10 million people, also, Canada is pretty much just America's hat.
Salting the clouds has to be the dumbest thing I have heard, that rain would scorch any farmland it touched.
And that's the point so you have to buy their shitty processed meats and dairy products and meat made in labs 🤢 only certain farms will make it and the rest will either fail due to rain/flood drought or straight up bird flu 🤧
That is quite alright, they want to stop farming to save the planet anyway.
I don’t think you understand how salting clouds works
@@mrfigaloopierre9610 Likely yet his end game is spot on.
@@AtSafeDistance I'm talking about why, scientifically, salting clouds works and what it actually means.
Ok what was a median temperature before people lived here?
In respects to reflecting back sunlight into space, since all the natural reflecting are melting away, how about if all roof tops world wide are reflective white. Just a thought to see how that would work out for the climate
like Miami?
I've seen claims it makes quite a difference.
Good video. I think you should look into the climate cycles. I found that we are not talking more about how the planet has termination events and we are still in the tail end of an ice age and that the planet outside of Antarctica will have no more northern glaciers. Still the more we talk the more we share and the more we learn.
I hope I get to see snow again soon. I haven't seen it for so long.
You're going to have to go much further north. The receding glaciers are the major source of methane gas being released. Glaciers trapped methane gas.
What regular temp, the earth was a snowball at one point and molten hell at another, mankind has walk the earth thru two ice ages so not sure what you mean normal temp
And, if we screw up and destroy the oceans, we'll say sorry.
I am the world- I AM SHOCKED!
Could using alkali be a "quick fix" for coral bleaching?
The question is if things do start to go South. Will there be a way to neutralize what we have done before we do it?
_We need to do something right now..._
The time to stop and think the most is when other people are rushing you.
When the earth has had enough, man will be gone, and the earth will live on.
That's another really cool experiment. I hope it works.🤞
And yet this type of science is at 100% accurate, at being wrong. Oversight necessitates Oversight
Ah yes, adding salt to rain. That's exactly what we need. To make rain, one of if not THE largest source of potable water on our planet, into saltwater.
And let's also block/reduce sunlight. You know, that thing that makes solar panels work and let's plants live. Nothing could possibly go wrong with that idea.
We'll never know if it'll destroy our world until we try! Good luck everyone!
Only the US uses imperial system. Please use only metric! Like M2 (square metres)
We need to stop it from now
Yes,Increase in CO2 is the main problem leading to global warming & climate change ! Most Inspirational & Unique idea!
But Mother Nature seems formidable in her views ! Thanks ❤
How about controlled experimental dumping red mud out in the ocean? Red mud is a waist from aluminum production with a large supply.
I think the big problem is that these scientists want to straight up do large scale tests WITHOUT making any considerations to what could happen. I understand climate change is a problem but the fact little proper thought is put in is incredibly dangerous.
Or we could invest in nuclear energy and just extract CO2 from the air.
Sub...scribed!!!
Surely there are ways to conduct these experiments without actually doing it in the ocean, risking damage to the environment? Recreating the conditions within the ocean in a tank or something, and conducting the experiments there. A terrarium of oceanic environments for the purposes of experimentation. That way it can be conducted safely.
Mother Earth will take care of herself.
Styrofoam pellets on the water surface. What I do know is Al Gore's family lost its oil fields in Venezuela to nationalization. I've always wondered how much that had to do with his concern for global warming. Though we're are at the end of an ice age and soon to begin a new ice age.
Dumping it during storms woudnt be so bad since waves would scatter it better.
2:55 “you are now entering the dead zone, are you sure it’s worth it?”
If phytoplankton were artificially added, followed by a huge sun spot, the result could be excessive cooling, maybe even in a new ice age. Maybe solar desalination and fog capture could allow massive tree planting in the world's deserts which would increase CO2 absorption. Eventually the transpiration of moisture would lead to cloud formation and increased rainfall, which in turn would allow part of the desalinated water could then water new trees. Probably massive tree planting would be more cost effective than converting to electric vehicles since mining is energy intensive, and every aspect of EV ownership is costly. Natural gas vehicles are more efficient and extremely durable. Recycling metal is extremely energy intensive. Having vehicles that last for 800,000 miles is very significant to energy expenditure! Methane can be added to the fuel, keeping it from being released into the atmosphere. Solar panels require mined rare metals and cannot be recycled economically. In deserts, passive solar using black tanks and mirrors could run desalination plants, with wind power on the coast to pump the sea water into pipes. The tanks and mirrors would provide much needed shade which could allow more plants to grow for livestock such as rabbits or edible giant rats which would not damage the equipment by climbing. Enclosing wires in metal would be necessary regardless because wild rodents also chew destructively. Instead of wasting money on E technology, it would be better to help all nations decrease emissions from coal burning power plants and vehicle engines without pollution reduction features. China, India and some of the larger developing nations cause 90% of greenhouse gases and air pollution. These countries need access to open source economical improvements to their energy infrastructure and machinery. Every dollar spent in those countries would have 10 times more benefit than saddling Western countries with debt for alternative energy sources which are not technologically ready for mass adoption.
soo the luminosity of the sun has increased then .. ???
Yeah and Florida would be under water by 2010 and the glaciers in glacier national park would melt by 2020. They are both still there.
Wow that is some great news.
My problem with trying to fix our climate is that other people will see this as an opportunity to argue to either go easy on emissions allowing them to increase their footprint. AND/OR becoming relaxed forgetting we most likely hit our limit on how much we can reverse. Usually steering away from emissions free environment.
One hand are people trying to repair our world.
On the other are people trying to profit off of it as much as possible.
So you’ve realized that it was capitalism that caused this?
Trying to fix the climate could make things even worse. Earth is a living organism. Any intervention, large or small, can result in natural disasters as the Earth regulates itself. What we need to do is reduce human influence on natural cycles by reducing pollution and minimizing urban encroachment into nature. And of course, focus on how to adapt better to the changes that are coming.
businessmen try not to ruin the earth level impossible
1:26 I'll make myself some coffee, then I'll show you.

I have two questions for you, mate.
1) What brand of coffee is that?
2) What kind of coffee maker is that?
when yellowstone erupts... the usa may have a new ocean/great lake... idk how that will effect air/weather/global warming or the waters c02 levels*( or its levels of other* stuff).. sorry i talk too much i'll limit my comments to 3. peace and love the content..ty
We will be cold, maybe half of people will die of hunger and or the cold.
Animals too my guess. But after, there will be less people on this planet. Wonder how they/them will get taxes, oil, gas or food
A super volcano eruption will block food production for between a year and a decade. The last one was Mount Toba in Indonesia two hundred years ago and the northern hemisphere had two years where it didn’t get above freezing at night in summer.
Yellowstone won’t erupt anytime soon
The cgi is incredible.

Climate change.
Do you understand global temperatures and why global warming is concerning? It really only takes one Google search…
@mrfigaloopierre9610 the record for the hottest temperature was set one hundred and 13 years ago. Still unbroken.
@@MrI8igmac Earth has not had a below average temperature year since the late 70's, whether a few variables lined up to make one uninhabited area extremely hot is irrelevant
@mrfigaloopierre9610 what tv show do you watch.
Is this channel on FB?
5:30 They don’t want sodium hydroxide poured into the ocean, but yet we use sodium hydroxide on our roads and at our houses during the winter when it snows or when ice forms so all that crap is ending up in the ocean anyway. So really we do need people to start putting a bigger amount to know the actual effects of it instead of the gradual effects of what we’re doing now.
100 tons of anything is nothing in the ocean, but you can see the plankton love it.
Depends. Its like saying china water dame is nothing. Yet it displaced earth.
We can do all of this but we won’t actually change any of our behaviors that are causing climate change. Wild.
What is more dangerous? Climate change or our attempts to prevent climate change? I tend to think it's the later.
Well we are causing every species to go extinct. There will be a point where growing Algae to preserve the remaining life will outweigh the consequences because those consequences will have already occurred.
Ok, but you’re wrong
@@mrfigaloopierre9610 That's just the opinion of a random dude on the internet. What I have seen so far in the real world rather confirms my suspicion.
@@gzoechi It's not an opinion, humans got where they are by building on the knowledge of other humans. That's how the Roman Empire was built; how European nations conquered the Americas; how electricity was discovered, explained, and harnessed; how smallpox was cured; and how information theory was developed to build computers.
You should use more than your own senses, you are one of billions of humans, use the available data collected by scientists around the world to make your opinions.
@@mrfigaloopierre9610 I'm monitoring for years and I only see dumb shit suggestions from fossil fuel and nuclear lobby. I guess there are some smart scientists with good ideas, but nobody will listen to them unless they find a good business model that makes someone billions. Currently it's just politicians taking bribe money from lobbyists who benefit. As long as this works, no good idea will make it even into the news.
Fear not .. the devil is a liar
yay, now we CANT beach boats in an emergency.
When youtube puts their little "disclaimer" on the video then you know they don't like what it contains.
The level of CO2 is 0•04% if it drops below 0•02% plants can't survive
The environment is too complex, but regardless dumping chemicals in the ocean just seems like a bad idea.
Imagine the sea coated in plastics...no, wait.
Dumping everything into the ocean except what helps
i feel like it's stupid to say "it could have major consequences and destroy everything" when what we're doing right now is doing exactly that
the burning of fossil fuels should just be banned imo, we should start over and try to find a better way to make energy
Necural energy as well as green energy are the best ways to go. Sadly Green energy has too much waste for it to be the primary source, but necuarl energy is already safe as long as it's done right, meaning now short cuts when building and making sure to not let human error happens.
Where's that Mount Pinatubo located bro because you failed to mention it?
Look it up?
Sources?
Alright, here is already the first and biggest problem
The main reason why europ has it so nice and cozy is thanks to the golf stream
If that stream beceause of climate change will be interrupted, we europeans gonna have another ice age
The big fan for making-hail-storms can't be that small or feeble: instead, genx-intercontinental-turbofan-jet-engine should be the go-to for this concept, the point must be thrusting water-laden-atmosphere up into the cloud-layer to generate a cooling effect & precipitation; & the only precipitation it will generate is hail, 100% guaranteed.
How about closing universities for ten years?
I may save us all from weird Crankensteins...
I think it has potential but needs more research
I have done a course that explains in dept the reactions involve with carbon dioxide and the ocean. From the carbonic acid to the dissolved calcium in the water. Yet i still dont believe we humans put out enough carbon to be detrimental. Also wouldnt it be better to grow trees. The limiting factor of tree growth is phosphorus. If the land gets enough phosphorus the increase carbon dioxide in the air should shift the equilibrium to significantly more tree growth.
I'd feel like something is missing if I didn't say "There putting chemicals in the water to turn thr freaking frogs gay!" If anyone can come up with a ocean version of that do it.
Cool video ❤
Considering the amount of material we are dumping in to the ocean trough our rivers, being angry about an experiment with a little rust is beyond stupid.
Build a large floating "island" with buoys and chains and have them leech manure slowly and you will see an explosion of life just like you see them around drilling platforms ship wrecks and desalinization exits
A shame we people are braindead, keep your ❤ warm hope the ❤ lead the 🧠. bless yall
