Adaptation and Mitigation
Вставка

- Special guests John D. Liu and Dr. Jem Bendell join Dr. Peter Carter, Paul Beckwith and Regina Valdez at COP27 in Sharm El-Sheikh, Egypt, to discuss the topic of adaptation and mitigation with respect to climate change.
The response to the climate emergency requires both mitigation and adaptation. Mitigation refers to efforts to reduce or prevent emission of greenhouse gases. Adaptation is the process of adjusting to current or expected impacts of climate change. The need for adaptation varies from one location to another, depending on the risk to human or ecological systems.
The panel will present various facets of the urgent need for a mitigation and adaptation response such as covered in the IPCC’s Sixth Assessment report as well as the need for governments, corporations and the media to communicate to citizens in a more meaningful way when describing the gravity of the climate crisis and the consequent societal and behavioral changes that will be needed.
The panel will also cover the topic of the restoration of ecosystems, technological innovations such as renewable energy, various means of drawing down carbon dioxide from the atmosphere as well as various forms of solar radiation management.
This video was recorded on November 9th, 2022 and published on December 4th, 2022, and represents the opinions of the discussion participants.

Paul strauight up said it, "We have these conferences and we're not really making progress."
such an excellent presentation by each speaker! I am so grateful that your group in particular is speaking out on the ways forward and on the ways in which some are aggravating the situation.
Thank you and you're welcome!
Mille mercis à vous tous pour votre excellent travail !
Merci infiniment pour votre soutien !
Build resilience into your home. Water catchment, thriving garden (including fruit/nut trees), solar power, electrified heating and cooking, and insulate your home beyond code(code should be seen as the minimum). The sooner this is completed the sooner you can help others as this trend takes off (out of necessity).
There is a saying that, “when we are suffering, nature is trying to teach us something”. We must equally think out of the box as aiming our efforts on the obvious target”.
More talk, talk, talk---., Dr Liu's pics are far more powerful in their teaching. How can various states get that focus and encourage each of us to get dirt/soil under our nails
Excellent Presentation by all of you!! Thank you as always.
Looks that we need to continue adapting and mitigating everyday, but we look forward to new strategies because as result of pondarate weight sustainable tackle other new concepts for everyone.
Paul looks EXHAUSTED, take care of yourselves!!!
For real!
I totally agree with "Restoration is the greatest work of our time".
PS: Seriously, many people (especially scientists) really need to learn about politics so that you won't have any false hope that policy makers across the globe (mainly in the west) will do anything at all with current ecological collapse. In contrary, they will do everything to preserve their diminishing power including destroying this world. Period.
This shits going to be trending soon. Thanks for the value.❤
You all rock
Yes, humans are just so wonderful.
Rules for thee, not for me. Now prepare my private jet, off to my energy sucking mansion😂
It's so right to say that climate activism has to come from the bottom up. But at the same time that's the headache because, well, political power grows out of the barrel of the gun, and most of us concerned citizens aren't that kind of person. Maybe we'll have to be.
The drought map is terrifying. What will we do with little water for crops, little rain for crops and rivers to transport those crops down the Mississippi river. Adaptation is a joke.
Creative Society is the future ! or not...
@@LivingNow678 Tell that to the hundreds of thousands affected by the floods and malaria in Pakistan. Why don't you go help them.
biogas leaves animals behind though. are the animals free or not?
We are not allowed to talk about animals.
I don't understand. How does biogas leave animals behind?
We need more alarmism to make climate change great again
The sky is falling said Henney Penney.
No, it's not said Chicking Licking.
You just keep your head buried in the sand. The rest of us here will continue advocating for action on climate change.
