High levels of carbon in peatlands can have a huge environmental impact if those ecosystems are destroyed. What are your thoughts on the work being done here?
@Libtarded I can't. Even if I try, you'll just ignore it. I wont bother arguing with someone like you.
Just dont make it an oil palm fields.
@Libtarded while it is impossible to deny that human progress is having a negative effect on the environment i'm also failing to see anything being done.. i routinely see the EPA fining this plant or that plant, but i also see they arent doing anything meaningful, like building solar powered air filters using ion technology or river filters to try and reduce the amount of effluence from various sources reaching the sea.. at the same time, to suggest that if we disturb peatlands that carbon will suddenly aerosol into the atmosphere is pretty hard to swallow.. i will partially agree that it's a epa money grab with zero return on that grab.. they are not helping to reduce overall carbon and byproducts quantities.. they just want that sweet, sweet money
I "impressed" with all this claim that the burning peat land for solely for OIL PALM INDUSTRY are to be the culprit for the global warming. Like coal burning silo are innocent, cow for meat industry are also do no harm at all. Not to mention with the number of all type of vehicle that we all kept using till this day are doing nothing to it. Please, for once in your life. Stop being hypocrite. Hey miss scientist from Leed Uni. I doubt you walked all the way from your well developed countries university straight to Congo. 😒
@Libtarded You guys are just being trolled.
I respect and support these people who are out there. In the mud and the guts of it all seasons day in day out. Telling us how it really is. ✌
We agree. It's very important work being done for the sake of protecting the environment.
I totally agree with you and should have said that myself . Instead , I choose to get mad at the fools that allowed it to happen in the first place . So , thank you for acknowledging the hard working individuals that are actually trying so hard to make THE DIFFERENCE !
THANK YOU AND BLESS Y'ALL ❤💗❤💪💪💪
If you don’t trust in climate change, or global warming, please at least trust in saving the rainforests in the world.
Michael Jordan Thanks Michael! Very cool!
I lean conservative, but I'm all on board with fighting climate change :)
This video and your statement are fair challenges to bring up and I 100% agree......But sorry, doesn't fit with agenda of scaring people into changing their sources of energy so the people invested in carbon credit management systems and other "green" corporations can get filthy rich. The same people telling you to change your life are producing more C02 then your every day person. Making promises the technology can not yet provide......You know its a scam when they only talk about human emissions and completely ignore deforestation and desertification.
invisibleAzN I’m talking more about deforestation here, that’s where it really hurts.
@@invisibleaznDJ do you even know the science of how co2 emmisions lead to heat trap & warming? Get Educated then talk trash.
It all comes down to what the country decides to invest in as a source of income, as well the demands that exist for it. To find faults is one thing, but to actually offer an equally working alternative is another story.
People are calling their greed as their needs..what I learnt form this video is that Earth is slowly preparing to cook us.
yeah.. if you want to see a runaway greenhouse effect, check out Venus's atmosphere. co2 96.5%, surface temperature 467 °C. once Venus had an Earth-like atmosphere
Slow boiled I agree could be true.
Why aren't people paying more attention to this problem ? They act like this hasn't been talked about for decades . 😡
WAKE UP WAKE UP 😬😠
It's already to late 😢😢
Fantástico 😊
Amazing documentation; informative and concise.
Thanks!
Very important for information a bout Peatland,
You are not here accidentally , you are here meaningfully, there's a purpose behind you )
Super

How peatlands are different from Wetlands ?
Hello
Hii
Can stop climate change but u can protect the forest
Where Has The Love Gone
Let's make a change...
Save the peatlands for single malt Scotch production thereby saving the planet!
Hi, one kind request is to start national geographic channel online in Tamil language . million number of people's are eagerly waiting for that......

I saw your comment on Lil Dicky's 'Earth' music video and wanted to stop by! My teachers' husband actually works for you guys C:

Importante trabalho na amazônia, preservar e cuidar de umas maiores florestas do mundo é o dever de todos biólogos ecologistas conservacionistas e ecólogos.
Hola!!!
Question, is the increase in volcanic activity that goes up in a steady line alongside temperature just a coincidence?
50 eruptions per year on average but for an example the last 3 years before this year had more than 70 and this year has already had 66

Why is everything of significance for research in Africa? Aren’t there peatlands in Europe?
@ Charla Gotier
Of course there are also peatlands in Europe. Especially in the northern countries like Finland and Sweden, but also in UK, Germany and Poland. And trust me, they are studied as well (I am doing research on them and I am not alone ;) ). I am not sure why a lot of things are so interesting in Africa, but I can imagine that it has something to do with the higher temperatures in the tropics. Because higher temperatures result in higher degradation of peat for example.
fotofreak92 thanks for the feedback. Unfortunately, human beings are the most researched...& in the most unethical ways. Seems as though Africa has always been a well trodden treasure trove, never to the people’s benefit.
Speculation and theory.
Compared to historical records, present carbon levels are reportedly low. Plant life thrives on carbon dioxide and therefore it would increase peat deposits, wouldn't it?!
no, co2 level was never higher than 300ppm in the last 800.000 years, we know because we looked at the air trapped in ice. 2 much co2 is not good, has a green house effect and increases the temperature.
Own Orchard, before that it was peatland
From this video, i should do nothing to it, storing carbon for free and remain poor.
INDIANS ARE EVERYWHERE 😀

@@Asad.1999 that was the biggest mistake of your country to expose in media that you have arrested indian pilot ABHINANDAN you people can make that secret and can have more information about indian airbases and other secret places... But you don't have such kind of brain.. That's why you are always slower than india in every field.... MIND IT.. and let your govt. Knew about this.....
Why am I hearing Pete Wentz instead of peatlands??
