As an engineer and ACTUAL scientist that isn’t bribed, Im qualified to state that this “carbon thing” has only ever been a huge idiotic scam.
Huge scam and waste of money on EVS and other green energy.
Yep
@@markmiller8903 / My old Lincoln Town Car agrees, and after 20 yrs it’s barely even “broken in.” In comparison an EV is a total toxic write off after 5 yrs.
@@paulieheath I live on a forested mountain, so if you can wait a sec I’ll go outside and ask them.
Same....I have a B.S. in Chemistry and I concur. This is all absolute nonsense. The "scientists" screaming, "end of the world" over climate alarmism, are receiving money from governments. They tell them what they want to hear.
Why is it so hard to fire people who won't do their jobs?
Civil service protections. It's a joke.
BECAUSE THE PEOPLE IN CHARGE ARE NOT DOING THEIR JOB EITHER! THIS SORT OF THING MUST BE FIXED!
@@billnyethesciencedenier1516what utter nonsense! Affirmative Action!!!
They grab any body with a degree who's willing to compromise their morals for a few dollars. That way when you disagree with a stance people can say : "oh yeah well where's your degree at".
My thoughts exactly...
It does not matter if America had 0% carbon emissions, unless China and other countries do the same, it is pointless to put ourselves at at a disadvantage to these other countries...
This is the truth we do everything and China does nothing and gets rich of the US
That’s the plan.
China Releases more carbon emissions than anyone in the world, They waste so much too. 20x More than America
But what if the world is really ending? Would it matter
it only matters if the majority of contributors stop as well. I would say it puts us as a military and economic disadvantage to those who don't opt out.@@georgiedawson2259
These guys havent come up with any new ideas than those whoch I was taught in middle school in 1992. Way to go guys.
God save America from this administration. The worse time in my 50 years.
GOD save Us from Lawyers
And my nearly 70.
Wow, I wonder how the world could run all these years without the PHD'S. Must be a Captain at the wheel somewhere they don't know about, or want to know about ! ! !
Last 7 yrs but yes this one is reckless
@@JaelDavie 3 years, nice try.
the one guy is right , IT WILL COST US OUR COUNTRY ...plain and simple
that's just soundbite
👍👍
Yep I heard that too and that's pretty damn scary!
ok let's do nothing then. is that your solution banjo player kennedy.?
no according to the jambalaya sippin senator nobody in the panel isw giving him an estimate. Estimates were given but he refuses to consider them. He came in the session expecting and believing that the witnesses will not give him an estimate. How can you give an estimate for 25 years? the cambridge guy said technology moves t different rates. Does he understand that? was that discussed in gator school?
Calling the people “Professor” and “Doctor” is like calling a woodpecker a carpenter.
😂😂😂
God bless this guy. He has his head on straight.
1. "Never let a crisis go to waste".
2. Maintain the useful crisis as long as possible.
3. If there's no useful crisis, create one.
4. Shhhh! Prevent victims from recovering.
5. ALWAYS BLAME CONSERVATIVES.
6. Logic and facts are not required.
add to that this mantra: 1.b "Where there is chaos there is cash." that fits with your #1, Never let a crisis go to waste. #2B If enough people lie long enough about a particular issue, you can move people to give some credence to your out right lies.
You said a mouthful for sure!!
I would add....... keep the population in a state of anxiety by reinforcing thr 'crisis' with constant announcements, visuals and urging them to be intolerant of those who question the fear narrative and the solutions offered ( which invariably involve loss of freedom and fundamental rights and a huge shift of power and wealth to the perpetrators). Sounds familiar?
We already have this guy Kennedy is talking with. He’s in the White House! No! This guy must not be elected to anything. Not even dog catcher!!
I Love Kennedy!!! I love it when he jumps all over these Know It All people he interviews and they don’t answer his questions he tells the interviewed just what to do, where to go and how fast! Love Senator Kennedy. Acts like a good ole boy but SMART!!!
Our "ELECTED" officials are allowed to ask "tough questions" but that's the extent. When do the criminals that we have on the peoples payroll start going to jail??
It will only happen once we vote OUT the criminals that still govern this place. If we don't do that, we are surely doomed.
Agree'd
When you stop using your first amendment and start using your second amendment.
My friend, that's why elections are so damn important.
Always keep in mind that these "doctors", "professors", "experts" and "authorities" will always have all the food, heat, money, comfort, security and privilege they will ever need while you are freezing and starving in a dark house---or maybe even in your car---if you're still lucky enough to have even that when they are done saving the world from you, and you from yourself.
Nailed it.
Rules for thee, not for me! That's them. That's ALWAYS been them! And it will ALWAYS be them!
The way these idiotic politicians acted during their covid lockdowns proved this. If people still don't see it, then they're actively choosing not to see!
Their behavior during their lockdowns showed US that they think, or rather they KNOW that their own rules that they're demanding WE either adhere to, or be forcefully arrested, have OUR life savings taken, and be fired from OUR jobs do not apply to THEM!
As long as they toe the line. If they don't the fbi is at their homes for some reason
Prove that climate change isn’t happening - let’s flip the script - give us a comprehensive report that scientifically disproves climate shift. Seriously. I’m open to finding out the truth - now spell it out for me…
This is another ridiculous conversation 🔥🇺🇸🔥Put your hand in my wallet
FRIGGING RIGHT. Senator Kennedy.!!!

as awesome as a dueling banjo

Yeah no doubt if there is anything this country needs at this time is more US Senators sitting on their arses in DC summoning experts and playing Ima the king maker that is gonna make you king for a day games like Kennedy, amiright? No doubt at all. That is what we need more of.
The greatest question and answer hash -out of all time! When the Honorable Senator said, “of course it’s complicated. That’s why you’re here.” I about lost my mind.
Good to hear the hard questions being asked.
Didn’t expect any real answers 😢
Senator is a national treasure.
He has more common sense than a whole room full of pinhead PhD professors.
Amen to that!
I said something similar in my comment (before I read yours).
@@PaddyMcCarthy2.1 Well...great minds DO think alike! As much as I appreciate Sen. Kennedy in the Senate, can you imagine him doing a stand-up comedy routine? I wouldn't care how much the tickets cost. I'd still pay to hear him! LOL!

Sen Kennedy should’ve asked these climate freaks how are they going to build solar panels and wind turbines without fossil fuels ????????😳
Agreed
If I was one of those guys and knew I had to go face Kennedy, I'd call in sick that day. He has more brains, more common sense, than ALL the Democrats in Washington.
Absolutely

Add that to the ever-growing list.
Yes, this what you will get back, and you will still have to feed and cloth them when they come back!!
Indeed, there is always community college.
I can feel Sen Kennedy's frustration. Several hundred billion dollars and the loss of our country sounds like an awful lot to me.
But we would be carbon free, no not even after the billions spent!
Not content with having our own UK fools , we are foisting them on our brothers and sisters in the US . Stand firm you all 🙏

This man should be president
VIVA JOHN KENNEDY! BOLD, SMART, funny as heck. LET COMMON SENSE REIGN for a change!
He was correct on saying it would cost us our country.
I love the way Sen.Kennedy starts out, using the platonic method, acting like a fool, and he has all these experts in front of him and not one of them can answer his simple question. This is his genius. And then the expert says "It's difficult" to answer. To which Sen. Kennedy answer "Of course its difficult, that's why y'all here!" Priceless.
Kennedy is fool.
The shame of this is that none of it matters. No matter how ridiculous these people are made to look they have the political clout to force these things upon us. How many times has Senator Kennedy made cabinet members and "experts" look like bumbling idiots and then nothing comes of it. There is no accountability.
it is because dems have majority.
I love this guy! Kennedy rocks
These people are frightening because of their “rules”. They’ve no idea how much comes from fossil fuels. If they are serious about it, take away everything they own made of petroleum.
What will they drive their electric cars on? Where do they think asphalt comes from?
If half the nation believes this is possible, they should volunteer and give up all fossil fuels. When the rest of us see how good it is for them, we will want to join them.
@@u686st7 The heavier electric cars will break down the roads even quicker and cause more asphalt to be used.
"How much would it cost?"
"Our country."
An honest answer, at least. And *THAT* is why the others won't answer the question.
We don't even own our country any more we owe too much, who ever picks up the tab on the US debt will have to worry about what it would cost!!!!!!!
His smackdowns are legendary
God bless you.
I love senator Kennedy he's a no BS guy!!¡ And it really comes down to common sense!!!! Keep giving it to them!
I give him the side eye 👀 bcz of his objections to letting Tucker show the tapes 😔
the best people don't want to be President, and who can blame them?
Absolutely 👍, he makes these so called professionals look like donkeys 👏🤣
@@nightowl2486he did? 😮 That's very disappointing.
Kennedy is not looking for real answers. He's just looking to make points with his base.
He is my idol. Most underrated senator of the bunch
These people are nuts 😡
Just answer the damn question 😢😢😢😢😢
The ELEPHANT in the room that everyone is overlooking is that, unlike China and other “developing nations” (China has the oldest DOCUMENTED nation in HISTORY), the United States is NOT building new Fossil Fueled power plants. For 41 years I worked in the Electric Production side of a Louisiana Electric Power Corporation, and within the year, one of the largest units we have came online in 1975. These units were designed to last about 30 years. It is 48 years old right now. America’s power grid capacity is older than it has ever been. There aren’t enough unused open spaces to install enough solar panels, nor are there enough places in Louisiana with consistent wind speeds to power wind turbines to sustain the load on the electric grid, just in Louisiana, and the same is true for the vast majority of the states in America. No wind = No electricity from a wind turbine. The open areas are currently being used for such “whimsical activities” such as agriculture, grazing land for livestock, you know, places for FOOD PRODUCTION. Environmental nutcases don’t seem to care about things like that. They would have us clear-cut vast areas of forest land for solar panel installation, though they forget that trees use Carbon Dioxide to produce a silly gas that intelligent people call Oxygen, also conveniently overlooking the fact that we need lumber to build houses in which to live. Investors are NOT going to tie up their money in the development of NEW Fossil Fueled Power Plants because of the FACT that Left Wing politicians won’t allow them to run in the very near future. It is VERY possible that there isn’t enough time to replace the AGING Fossil Fueled Power Plants with new Fossil Fueled Boilers along with new steam turbines, generators and all the necessary equipment to support each unit before Electric Power Companies will be forced to ration electricity, simply because the demand is quickly growing much faster than the ability to supply electricity 24/7/365. You can bury your head in the sand, but I’m telling you the Truth and FACTS ARE KRYPTONITE TO THE LEFT!
Well said

We need to ban EVS. The grid won't support them.
Nuke Energy is now clean energy. Self contained reactors are already on the assembly line.
Think about it. Small nuke in a car to drive the electric motor. How about an oscillating flywheel to propell the car.
Come on people. We don't need to lose rights or our nation to be Great. We just need to do.
It’s amazing how far a hoax can go.
Why isn’t there a special commission to investigate all acts of questionable injustices ? Also a special fund for due compensation to families.
Thank you Kennedy. All of this cost will be passed to the consumer plus some.
The one fellow said the truth: "IT WOULD COST US OUR COUNTRY"
The guy saying ‘it would cost our country’ was partially correct. If the nations ( individually and collectively) don’t start NOW it will cost the world. Our children and grandchildren their health and wellbeing. We will reach a point of no return or at best limited return.
by their estimations it was already suposed to be today the point of no return, and yet it hasnt. I am not saying we dont have a problem, but not to this extend as they exagerate it so that they can implement these new laws that benifit the interests of certain people. When asked about what percentage of our atmosphere represents the CO2 total, in front of congress, they said that they dont know, they will have to come back with a answer, and at the end they made them take a wild guess,5 of them if i remember correctly. All of their guesses ranged from 6 to 8 percent. that moment was really truthtelling about how litle they know about climate change and its effects on the planet, wich lately has been shown that the 0.01 percent elevation (from 0.03 pre 1950 to now 0.04) has insured that certains parts of Sahara desert is starting to become green, wich is observed from our satelite images, and ifthe percentege god fronids comes down to 0.02 all the plants around the worlds would die, trough out the history of humanity we observe that everytime temperatures rise, our civilisation does too at the same time, and everytime it goes down and its cold, it brings death, famine, no innovation, and pandemics. sorry for my english, i had to edit some of my grammar mistakes@@Leo-vc6rx
@@mikeboston5800 the point of no return was about 11 years ago. It is already passed. All the talking now is useless. If we acted 20 years ago, we'd have a chance to save ourselves but now...? No, it's over. We can prolong our suffering but we cannot stop the outcome anymore. We have killed our enviroment and we'll die sooner than later. And I'm saying this as a scientist. All this talk that photovoltaic and windpower will save us is utter bullshit. And the same goes for coal and nuclear power. Nothing will save us anymore. It's not that the house is burning, it has already burnt down. We are just discussing how to divide the ashes
Except global warming isn't a concern. And a 200 billion seems like a lot!
@@Leo-vc6rxthat’s what the climate alarmists think yes.
"Is that a yearly figure?" These people have no idea what fake number they're supposed to give lol
Honestly I think he was asking that because even he was thinking that that was an insanely low number for 25 years of infrastructure rebuilding. He said is that a yearly figure because it actually makes sense as a yearly figure. There's no fucking way it would cost a few hundred billion dollars to rebuild most of our countries infrastructure. We're easily talking in the trillions of dollars.
Didn't it go up 100 billion in like 30 seconds to 200 billion?
@@lindabradford9591 It started with a "couple hundred billion" at first, allegedly reducing over time, and then suddenly it was "two hundred billion total."
I like Kennedy’s straight talking , so good
So true Senator Kenenedy!
More and more I ask myself the question: "Can anyone answer a straight forward question nowadays?"
What is the reason for such inability to answer a straight forward question today?
Thank you and have a wonderful life.
Oh and remember life does not come to an end - promise of Jesus - because even on death, "life has changed, not ended". The latter is a certainty of victory over death- amazing and True!

"I'm personally not in favor of nuclear."
Translation: "I'm not even kind of serious about reducing carbon emissions."
Exactly!
How genius? They have all these dreamy ideas but how do people live in the carbon free world? No actual steps… “work with” means you have no idea!
There isn't many liberals out there who can grow their own food, bank a fire, make their own fabric (& forget about knowing how to sew them!) or even generally know how to survive. Seems like all they want to do is spout nonsense w/o having any solutions that'll even work!
Let's see how this works, you can't use wood because we depleted all our forest for solar farms and wind mills can't use concrete because the process to create it releases to much carbon, can't grow food because we used up all the agricultural land for the solar farms, can't raise cattle because we don't have the land to graze them, can't have cotton clothing nowhere to grow cotton, can't have synthetic clothing because it uses petroleum to manufacture, can't have shoes no leather or synthetics and I could go on for days but they PHDs have got it all figured out just listen to one!!!!
Do you think any of the PHDs have ever thought about any of this?!!!!!!!!!!!
Thankyou. Senator Kennedy
He did give him an answer though..
Senator Kennedy is a great man, there is no one like him, he's a no nonsense guy, we need more like him!
I totally agree with you
What has he ever accomplished?
@@robertwelsh4094 Well, he proved that that all the experts on "Climate Change" are Pure B.S.
I absolutely love how Mr Kennedy sets them and let's them prove their complete idiots
These people are not idiots. They know exactly what they're doing and exactly what not to disclose.
Yep
Asking the cost of a mega project to an environmental scientist and demanding for an answer puts the senator in that position
I have apartments in my building selling for 2 million in Florida. Mar a lago worth $18 is absolutely laughable. More like $118 million
Id rather fight a rabid polecat than face Kennedy. The cat is gonna fu.k me up but at least he won't make me look stupid AF lol
That’s how you deal with self-flagellating idiots like these. I’m tired of being dragged through the mud by people like this, all for daring to question their motives and figures.
"It will cost our liberties, it will cost our economy, it will cost our country." Most HONEST answer we've heard. Great job, sir! Great job senator Kennedy! I'm so proud of you! These people dont care about the true costs. They do not care who lives or dies. As long as they get what they want. THAT is true profit over people. Human beings are far more important than these peoples bank accounts. Stand up now before there is no America. We are on the precipice of complete destruction. 😢 We can't let this happen.
Yes, my thoughts exactly!!!!!!
Carbon reduction= eliminating human beings and many other evil things. Solar and wind are NOT enough to sustain America. Not even close.
One of my brothers used to make wind turbines and he used to tell me about how dangerous they actually are. Some of the stories he told me, I'll never forget. He ended up leaving that job because he felt it was too dangerous and he wasn't being paid enough for the risk.
They cause fires, they kill birds and he always used to tell me he didn't understand how anyone could ever think wind turbines were enough to produce long term energy for all of America's needs. Not just the country and its infrastructure but the American people.
I mean, I'll support some of the alternatives, but to completely take out what has worked for America for this long is absolutely insane.
Do they have some sort of energy source that we dont know about? I've been wondering about that.
I see alot of smoke being blown.
LOL, you drama queen.

If you're going to suggest we do a project you should know about how much the project is going to cost
And if you don't have the cost it means that you don't have real action plan how to do it.
A bully is a bully even with no teeth.
Kennedy's great, tell it like it is..
The best question that no one asks is “can you name the negative consequences of what you’re proposing?” Cause they can’t, because they don’t care what the consequences are.
You got that right.
The guy at 8 minutes in says it the best I think, It will cost us our liberty and country, everything has to be in the hands of the state. No privatized oil/gas company wants to even think about it, they will go out of business. So basically a communist kind of taking care of the problem. Im from the Netherlands, a tiny country with 17 million people with almost no impact on the world stage regarding this topic, but also we are constantly been asked about what will it cost. I think capitalism / free market will never solve this problem. Only nuclear energy can reduce oil/gas usage. The guy from Cambridge was right to say, maybe there will be other kinds of energy in the near future , he probably means plasma/ion/cold fusion etc.., but I fear that this will not be invented in the next 20 years on a scale that it would be relevant. So building 100 extra nuclear powerplants would be a good start, but the guy who thinks it would be 200 billion is way off, the guy from Cambridge thought he meant per year :-p
@@EsTornino77 Honestly if you look at the newer nuclear plants that are being experimented with 100 may not even be necessary.

Or believe there is nothing suspicious about someone bleach washing thousands of emails off their computer and having phones destroyed when they are under investigation?
do you think so? I find it kind of stupid that he is insisting on knowing the price tag of some thing that hasn’t happened yet and he’s arguing that we shouldn’t try to fix the problem until we know how much it will cost.

Impressive dialogue actually 🎉 finally
Pretty much these so called “consultants” just talk out of their butts!
It’s sad that a simple question is being asked to these professors, highly educated people who can’t even give a ball park estimate. That old saying of educated idiot comes to mind
did you watch the video? they gave figures but kennedy just wanted to insult them and pretended that a figure was not given. But instead of asking them how they arrived at the figure he did not because that kind of analysis is beyond his brain power so he just dismisses it and pretend that the witnesses did not give him a figure
I heard this older mexican dude say that PhD stood for "Pendejo has Degree"!
@@ECP-xu5vj out of the half a dozen that were asked, only one of those “educated” people gave a ball park figure, and even then, he didn’t sound very confident in it. If I had a voice in whether to go along with this movement or not, and these answers came out from these “educated” people, I would say no thank you. Kennedy wasn’t insulting those professors because he didn’t understand a number, it’s because only one number was given out of the half dozen professors that were asked.
Oh they CAN answer it. No one would like the $100 trillion answer is all. We could have been carbon neutral IF Nuclear was allowed since 1970. Solar and Wind are garbage. 20% generation in the Winter is a non-starter.
"they gave figures "@@ECP-xu5vj They gave a completely contrived answer. It'll cost a trillion $ a year but we'd be saving 800 billion. Sure we would.

Sounds like all these experts are able accustomed to being the voice of authority in every meeting they attend. Hear they are just a cabal of ideologues who avoid straight forward answers incase they get trapped by their own logic. In my view the guy who said we will loose our country is pulling out his ace in the hole to try to deflect from answering by scaring everyone about the consequences of inaction without addressing the consequences of his pet projects. Scare tactics from an academic/ expert / intellectual are only deserving of an F.
If he says then he must produce the evidence to be testedg
Nay nay I say. He is saying exactly what he was told to say
😂😂
200 billion😂😂😂😂 In Australia they’ve said Trillions. Smfh
Thank you Senator Kennedy. 🇺🇸
Such a pleasure to watch an honest, intelligent Senator such as Mr Kennedy. Senate needs more of this kind of person. Educated and thoughtful
He went to school BEFORE THEY SOLD OUT.!
honest and intelligent? you must be talking about someone else. This senator is right smack out of deliverance
That's right, go to name calling. You guys do that all the time.@@ECP-xu5vj
@@ECP-xu5vjhe is a Senator...and you are?
@@ECP-xu5vjwhen the brains were handed out, you got left behind
Senator Kennedy, the world needs more men like him!!!
AMEN.. THANKS FOR YOUR COMMENT !!!
They don't want to answer or don't know. I have a relative that was on some voluntary city committee on "climate change". I just said to her one day, '80% of Maine uses heating oil, how many windmills will it take to replace that?' She had no clue. It's pipe dreams and lollypops.
Soooperb Senator Kennedy. Absolutely Soooperb. 👍
I Love Senator Kennedy!!! 😅 He is for dang sure a breath of fresh air. And all of these people want to say is ,”I don’t know.” God bless you Senator Kennedy.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

I just love Sen. Kennedy more and more.
He is typically really respectful and wants answers. This is one of those few moments where you can see he is just done hearing the BS. I don't blame him. Coming to congress with all of these plans but not having the slightest idea what this is going to cost is asinine!
You & me both! Every time I watch him, I can't help but think.."Thank you LA!"
Why? Yuck!
@@TammyMartinBLUE Because he hold idiots accountable.
GOD BLESS you Senator.
This isn't Cambridge! THIS IS SPARTA!
Senator Kennedy we need more senators like you as these clowns think they can get a blank check for this ridiculous green BS
I'm sure the Chinese would appreciate your efforts to slow down America's energy efficiency.
I wouldn't doubt the international oil cartel is doing their best the stuff this politicians pockets. You bottom feeders wouldn't know any difference your lack of education has been obvious for some time.
He is the clown
And you are bot :)
@@rafaelorsic4884 and you are one of the mentally bewildered
They think they can because they have been fleecing our country for years.
Senator John Kennedy, I love your assessment of what these guys are trying to do.....not much. Senator you are a national treasure and I certainly love to hear you anytime you are speaking. Awesome, down to earth kind of a guy. You have more common sense in your little finger than the presenters . God bless you!
Thank You Senator Kennedy.
Beautiful sir
