@@NickBreeze have you got in touch with the Whistleblower, Dr Yamina Saheb ? She was a speaker in a workshop at Beyond Growth last May, with Olivia Lazard ao. Works in Paris, apparently.
I’m glad to see another widely respected climate scientist engaging candidly with journalists and the public on these issues, but surely it is time for such well informed pillars of public service to join civil resistance groups in challenging governments over their inaction. The presence of such individuals on the front line is desperately needed.

@@jzsbff4801 And another thing. Thee events are all in the fascist nobility who took the land from the indigenous of the area, through hook or by crook, and consolidated the land for production to siphon the potential surpluses.

Powerful talk. That treaty clause sounds like a similar clause in the TPP, where countries can be sued for loss of profit where the countries change policies as required by a changing world, and those “agreements” are negotiated in complete privacy. Disgusting. A positive thing that is going on in some US states is that other regions are picking up on the success of Netherlands groups who sued the government for failing to provide a safe future environment for up coming generations.
Excellent presentation from Julia. I know she will be aware of this, which is why I'm asking as economics is not really my thing and I only see it in broad terms. It has been my understanding for a long time, that a major portion of the value of oil companies, are their reserves i.e. reserves still in the ground. So these reserves, and the companies themselves, are only really worth something, if the oil, gas etc, is eventually extracted. That if these reserves can't be extracted, not only do these reserves, become worthless, then it is the same with the oil companies themselves. They become stranded assets. This is why for decades I've just seen oil companies as clever liars. It has never been in the interests of oil companies to reduce future fossil fuel burning and emissions, because if that happened, their company's worth would collapse. Presumably, they have massive loans taken out, secured by their company's worth, and the worth of these assets. In other words, if government had ever really reduced future emissions and fossil fuel burning, the worth of these fossil fuel companies would collapse. As so many none fossil fuel companies and billionaires etc, have so much invested in this, that it would send shockwaves through the financial markets. Hence why governments and so much of the establishment are protecting fossil fuel business as usual. It seems a tough nut to crack, and we can't rely on governments or any of these people to reform this.
Interestingly this situation is better than I thought. Apparently investors have been pushing Wall Street to go green and the US House Republicans, beholden to big oil funders, are trying to legislate the prioritization of gains over green. Very good to hear that this is a big fight. Article on Politico today. I'm not pasting a link, because I'm afraid UA-cam will delete this.
I wish guests could speak a bit slower so they could be understood better by non-English as first-language viewers. Your pace and speed of talking Nick, is perfect. Thanks.
@@NickBreeze Oh no, please, do not be sorry! it was just a suggestion, so maybe your guests will consider speaking a bit clearer and slower if they know there are viewers whose first language is not English. Thanks for your understanding. Your videos are great, I love the drawing portraits at the beginning.
I don't understand why one is required to pay for full content if the goal is to educate a large portion of the population, many like me can't afford to pay but are really interested learning how to help solve the climate crisis.
Hi Andre, I totally agree. I tried to find a way to encourage people to support the series because it is do time consuming and self-funded. However, if you genuinely can not afford the membership, email me, and I'll send you a link.
Snappy. I will have to listen a second time. I've been used to long slow interviews that sometimes belabor a point. I kind of like this person's topic for discussion and will have to look her up. In my view this corporate struggle is a fascist extension of killing off the peasants starting in 1525.
The doctor is correct however at this stage of the game all we can do is be as nice as possible to those around you and enjoy the last few years of your life😊 Realizing We Are So Fucked is truely liberating 😊😊
Treaties like this should be abandoned immediately and declared illegal. Do you think it is a wise strategy to participate in companies that try to influence fossil fuel companies as shareholders?
Talks a good fight, BUT: - she denounced the leader of the (excellent) MEER project, an albedo enhancement project, which is one of the few hopes for expedient global energetic rebalancing; - she supports the international criminal fascist organization Blackrock; ... and more. I was shocked, actually. Bad actor. Talks great, but a snake.

Climate engineering is what we need to fight. When you want to play with nature, you always loose.
I gather she is against all forms of geo-engineering for good reasons but I think time is short - like really short - and these technologies need to be considered. What’s up with Blackrock? I know nothing about it. Thanks.
@@billgoedecke2265 While the excellent MEER project has a chance of buying us a little more time, the Planet is inexorably headed to its more stable state: Hothouse, where it sits 70% of the time. If you investigate the expected crop shortages, happening right now, you'll find the "clock has run out", for many more millions of fellow souls. Unless you have invested in your own self sufficiency, and food stocks, that means you will be hearing the ticking of your own clock. Sorry .....
@@billgoedecke2265 Besides helping to consolidate wealth and power as a major money manager, Blackrock has also vocally dedicated itself to maintaining its holdings in the fossil fuel industry- multiple times. The most recent statements were earlier this year and sometime last year. Reseach their role in our demise 💰
This is a nightmare! I would have no idea without this interview.
Thanks for the feedback. The Energy Charter Treaty is absolutely nuts.

Hi Clive, Julia has been involved in non-violent protests, has gotten arrested etc. Quite a lot of interviewees have these days.
What a delightful radical! Confrontation is such a better term than perseverance

Nick, Thank you for giving Dr. Steinberger a platform. This is very ugly information that people need to know.
