You're the best or worst kind of stupid. Haven't decided.
And will continue to do nothing at this point it's over, our next generation will suffer because of it. The human race destroyed our planet amd to be honest we deserved it because we did nothing about it when we could.
None of us should be shocked when we greedily kill our world and it screams in agony while it dies.

a new look at this video seven years later shows that many of the worst cases have already come to pass and we've done nothing to prevent extinction level warming. We passed 2 C in March 2020 and haven't looked back (the 2 C mark is temp increase from the baseline pre-industrial temperature in 1750. The 1.5 C measurement is only possible if you start measurements in 1880 or later). 'we told you so' doesn't save us.
It's all downhill from here. His predictions are already happening - mass migrations (Europe), super viruses, floods, cities getting leveled, food / water shortages (Syria / Africa), uncontrollable wildfires (Fort Mac, Australia, etc)
The Reaper95 So... An antibiotic, which is something that kills BACTERIA and has no effect whatsoever on viruses, for some reason... made viruses stronger?
antibiotics are not used to fight viruses only bacteria and occasionally very simple parasites. Viruses aren't stronger people are weaker we no longer try to fight our sickness we attempt to ignore it by drugging our self up. Antibiotics are less effective because that is how we decided to treat disease the last 80-100 years, it is evolution if you make something that is going to kill something else eventually the species isnt going to die from it.
What's this movie? The end of that scene killed me. "If we rally together, and listen to our best scientists, and act decisively and passionately, then I still don't see any chance for us to survive" lmao
To be fair its not the apocalypse, its just going to be a very very rough couple of centuries where specialist organisms will lose out to generalists who will be better able to adapt to the changing environments and then over thousands or tens of thousands of years isolated populations of those generalist will evolve to specialize and eventually they will beat out the genralists in that small niche
Notice the 2014 data. Nothing much has changed, except more CO2, more wildfires, more intense storms. There is a delay between a CO2 emission and the heating of 10 years. There is an endless human delay in getting corrective action. We no longer have the ability to replace all of our infrastructure in time.

It's eerie and sad looking through the comments; some people realizing this scene may not be just comedy, but a satirical way to delivery an extremely harsh truth. I'm actually in tears after watching this and reading the comments, knowing the truth behind it. The Westbrook scientist/Tobey -- what he says is true. It will become more and more evident as the years go on. This scene WILL be revisited time and time again in the not to distant future
"spread of deadly disease, endless wildfires way too many to keep under control...storms that have the power to level cities" watching this clip days after hurricane Ida swept through New York & New Jersey (September 2021)... boy this has aged too well...
I think Toby tbh has said something a lot of scientist or reports refrain from admitting. I mean to say the very least this guy had the balls to show the reality and people are afraid of it. If we wanted something to happened we would of made it happen a long time ago...

His initial reaction in this video and final reaction are hilarious 😂😂😂
1. Exhales as why I am still doing this.
2. After bumming everyone out, most cheerfully says 'Thanks for having me😀'
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Btw the tears are of sadness...
This was my favorite episode of the office
I preferred the one starring Sponge Bob
This is from the NEWSSROOM not the OFFICE YOU STIPID IDIOT,!
Rachael Kowalewski you are so funny. Its the Office you dumbass
It's Newsroom
Kate Prince r/wooosh
Carbon dioxide levels, are now the highest in human history.
It's eerie and sad looking through the comments; some people realizing this scene may not be just comedy, but a satirical way to delivery an extremely harsh truth. I'm actually in tears after watching this and reading the comments, knowing the truth behind it. The Westbrook scientist/Tobey -- what he says is true. It will become more and more evident as the years go on. This scene WILL be revisited time and time again in the not to distant future
You're crying? I guess it's good that there are many weak, emotionally fragile people nowadays. Makes surviving the post apocalypse that much easier.
@@dps1689 Oh brother. Another imbecile who thinks the climate apocalypse will play out like a movie
@@dps1689 the apocalypse? you’ll starve before it arrives
@@ricelord2762 There will be no apocalypse for fuck sake. It's all going to be digital. I was just joking around. Get a grip people.
@@dps1689 lmao learn to read
It is all, unfortunately, true and going to happen.
No climate change prediction has come true in the last 100 years.
GOP: people are starting their weekends.
"spread of deadly disease, endless wildfires way too many to keep under control...storms that have the power to level cities" watching this clip days after hurricane Ida swept through New York & New Jersey (September 2021)... boy this has aged too well...
one of the best shows form the past 10 years.. to sad that ended
"That would have been great!"
And now my table's drinking my wine :-D
you can't take Toby serious here after watching the office lol
itsammar1 I can and did take him serious
itsammar1 This is supposed to be funny
Phantom Gaming Here take this 🍪 its a cookie, cause nobody cares. Go back to the annex
And that's the damn punchline.
Nobody takes the court jesters seriously, even when they scream truth in the faces of everyone.
20 years from now people will start their weekends underwater
No they won't. They'll spend them on fire
That's the optimistic view. My country's capital already sinking
"Oscar said I checked out, huh?"
/shrug.
For those wondering where it's from: Series called The Newsroom, season 3 episode 3. Paul Lieberstein (Toby actor) also directs episode 5 of season 3
I think Toby tbh has said something a lot of scientist or reports refrain from admitting. I mean to say the very least this guy had the balls to show the reality and people are afraid of it. If we wanted something to happened we would of made it happen a long time ago...
There is a lot we could still do even today though
"Are you going to get in trouble for saying all this?"
"It doesn't matter."
Lmao
"Toby has been cruisin for a bruisin for 12 years, and I am now his cruise director, and my name is Captain Bruisin." -Michael Scott
"Thanks for having me!"
That may have been a extra thirty seconds we wish we didn't want to get. But hey - years later we can't say they didn't warn us.
“I hate so much about all of the things that you choose to be.” - Michael Scott
Looking at this from the summer of 2021...damn if this don't hit hard
Posted eight years ago, and now we are seeing many of the things he described in real time.
Yup the oceans are 80 feet higher
Hahahaha, course we are.
A lot of this has always happened in varying degrees
To all those making jokes about the office you're distracting yourself from the fact that everything he said is true
The permanent darkness probably wont happen
This interview hits another way now in 2020
Toby ladies and gentlemen! Give him a round of applause!
2021- so far Toby's been right. I suppose It can only get worse
You were right!
