    Excellent video on the topic and a great host!
    People who make excuses like "oh, the earth has been this warm before" don't stop and realize that humans or the crops we need to survive were not alive and thriving in those eras of hot earth climate.

    The earth will survive climate change
    Life will most likely also survive climate change
    Whether WE survive climate change, is mostly up to us, and we're running out of time.

    It's definitely hitting some folks way harder, like right now as I write this comment. I've been seeing "record highs" in a lot of headlines all over the place. Where I live it's really, really noticeable and really, really bad. The US southeast is "supposed" to be hot and humid, sure, but not 111F every day for a week!! We have trees dying from too much heat and not ENOUGH moisture, which is something I really never thought I'd see in this area. And I'm not sure how anybody's alive in Phoenix AZ right now >.>
    And you are VERY right. We have to get every human on Earth to work together if we wanna solve this as quickly as humanly possible... sad to say we can't even get people to stop shooting at each other much less agree on climate policies.

    The green house effect was originally hypothesised in the 1820s by Joseph Fourier, some three decades earlier than Foote's experiments.

    That was surprisingly not terrible. I've never watched this channel before, because I am an engineer and these things are generally too, well, general.
    The presenter is great, the graphics are good, the data - little as it was - is sound, but I was most surprised by the obvious links between the ability of our planet to sustain life as we know it is only due to the Earth's natural greenhouse effect. That's pretty refreshing, and not often brought up In these micro courses. Well done!

It's afraid that the United States will beat you, last winter you were very cold, American dad sucked your blood, you still need to thank the United States, it's ridiculous, I found that you European smart people speak almost nothing, the speech is very magical, you don't even understand the basic situation, personally I feel that you Europeans are stupid, especially from the standpoint of your country, there is no correct thinking at all

    The issue that I have seen has been that most climate activists go after their fellow man rather than the governments and companies that are doing the most damage. You can't expect creatures of habit (humans) to change their diets overnight or at all. You can however hold large corporations accountable and force them into changing their practices and invest in carbon recapture.
