Why the IPCC climate reports are so important
Вставка
- Опубліковано 4 сер 2024
- The intergovernmental panel on climate change releases the definitive reports on global warming, with the next major report coming out in 2021 and 2022. But how do these reports actually work, and how far can you trust them?

Thanks to Richard Black for feedback on the script - Наука та технологія
in case you're wondering about 1:44... "extremely likely" is IPCC code for 95% probability or higher!
Adam are you going to the COP in Glasgow?
@@michaelbyrd7883 most likely not. Which is probably for the best as I found the one and only cop I attended super depressing...
@@ClimateAdam Mmmmm.....that's it? I would've thought it was something very important to attend, but I only hear dribs and drabs about these things. However, I can see how all those very rich and powerful people who show up as if they care could cause someone that has a conscience, morals and is educated to feel that way. Thank you for your videos and writing back.
As someone who has had difficulty reading even the Summary report of AR5, hearing that Adam will summarize the new reports in his videos makes me happy! :)
Glad I’m not the only one!
This nerd doesn't know what the hell he is talking about. IPCC isn't even climate experts. Anthropomorphic Climate Change is a fraud.
THANK YOU SO MUCH for making this video and breaking this down. I've always wondered where/how to find a consensus from scientists on climate change but have never known where to start. This was so informative and I love how you keep it entertaining too! Keep on creating!!
there is *so* much misunderstanding about what the IPCC is and isn't, even from scientists and policymakers. so glad that this helped you a little
Science is not made by consensus or polls. It is made by scientific method.
🎶 I P C C A R 6 🎶 is now frimly stuck in my head. 😂
find it now on spotify!
I didn't even realize it was time for another IPCC report - thanks for the update & breakdown of what to expect
Up yours!
Up yours too my friend
I'm assuming this is a new social greeting we are taking on :)
Hiya! Thank you for another informative video. I didn't completely understand what ipcc meant and I also didn't know they were split into 3 sections! I will be sure to read them all when they come out
Thank you for still making videos!
Ignoring the whole life-threatening crisis thing, it's just so cool to see hundreds of scientists representing all countries write thousands of pages about the current scientific consensus. Thanks for the explainer!
it is just an amazing academic achievement/document, and it would be great if there were similar endeavours for other areas of research with such crucial policy relevance. IPCOV19 anyone..?
It is uplifting to think that a global crisis that threatens all of humanity may actually unite us all as a species.
Even without a scientific report I can feel how the ecosystem is influenced badly by the rampant natrual destruction and rampant commercialization.
To a degree that the coronavirus outbreak, the mice plague outbreak,the flood,forest fires and all sorts of "natural"disasters happened.
Also, I find your choice of music soothing and I think the volume level is perfect so I can focus on your voice but there's also something there in the background to fill it out. ALSO I think blue suits you very well 😊 I hope you have a lovely day!
Thanks, Adam. I came here off the back of the skeptical science website. You are doing such great work.
ah thanks so much Anthony - great to have you here!
I followed the SS link to ClimateAdam's UA-cam channel as well. Unfortunately, the first comment at the Skeptical Science page illustrates the ignorance and superficiality of many who deny the reality and severity of the AGW/CC (Anthropological Global Warming and associated Climate Change) path that our human civilization is traveling. When a person posts about "extreme predictions" and claims that "It's all a big fraud to get control of energy", I always cringe.
It is important to be aware that many people cannot - or will not attempt to - get past the simple concept of fixed "predictions" and that they do not understand the concept of "probable outcomes based on various CO2 emission scenarios."
The essence of global warming and climate change is simple. The details are not. I am a retired American living in the rainforest mountains of Western Panama, and I actually took an online course in climate science from the University of British Columbia five years ago just to get the basics right.
I just realized you’re on the nature podcast sometimes - it’s always so interesting!
it's true! in fact I co-hosted it for over three years!
@@ClimateAdam Oh my god! I was wondering why your voice sounded so familiar!
Thanks for this video! I'm now writing my master's thesis on adaptation to climate change of Warsaw so I can't wait for this report too :D
I've always been very angry with deforestation and clear cutting but I guess Greta was the first one to really bring me on board with the climate and climate science. I never heard of the IPCC until I heard her constantly talking about them. In fact I had no idea there was anything more then maybe Sierra club and friends of the earth etc. I knew about David Suzuki and Attenborough but I had never heard of a climatologists, just a meteorologist. Adam, you're awesome keep spreading the information, we need to get hip to it. Man, I hope Greta goes to the COP, I think Biden is doling out vaccines around the world so she'll rethink her decision. She's connected the way no one else has been able to and it's really important she's there.
Thank you for taking the time to produce this video. Great explanation and entertaining at the same time.
thanks for taking the time to watch it, Melissa!
Hey bro. Maybe you could also create a video on how we can learn to comprehend these kind of reports. In most cases, we get to take people's word instead of discerning the essence of the reports themselves.
Looking forward to the summary though. Great work!
oh wow interesting suggestion, and not even sure where I'd begin, but I'll mull it over!
@@ClimateAdam Awesome!
@@ClimateAdam yes please!
Such a good point!
As an environmentally focused artist I feel the art world could maybe contribute with this part. Learning about the science through media and explanations such as Adams we can then take make art works from it. Art, music, litterature and such opens doors for self exploration and understanding. It helps engage and ask more personal questions.
It is also the role of the communicators of the world to translate the science into relatable, graspable, close to home stories.
I feel they are key industries to activate for the climate transition to take off properly.
Hi Adam, thanks for making IPCC more understandable! I'm an undergraduate student and would like to make a video explaining about climate in my native language. Would you mind if I use your video as a reference? Thanks! :)
not at all! if you'd ever like to provide subtitles in another language for any of my videos too, do get in touch!
Thanks for explaining that!
Good explanation. I'm looking forward to report release on Monday 9th and meaning to blog about it.
There will be new stuff about attribution of extreme events. Doubt sea-level predictions will have changed much since SROCC in 2019.
If you want something to bet on, will climate sensitivity range be narrower than 2-4.5 °C? I'll stick my neck out and say yes, at least a more precise range will be quoted.
And will you update your fingernail colour depending on whether it's good or bad news? If you've ever mentioned nail colour, it's not on one of the majority of videos I've missed...
I think the narrower climate sensitivity than before is a good bet, given that it was recently refined with this report explicitly in mind.
and no - I'll have enough to get done speedily without having time to watch paint dry!
Thank you for this! Such a great effort here, engaging and humorous, subscribed immediately!
ah thanks so much! and welcome to the channel!
5:15 This is a great bait-and-switch and a very important point. Idk why so many people think that climate scientists are just funded by "Big Solar," like that's even a thing.
A bit off topic but what is the meaning of "panel" in the IPCC acronym? I am not native English speaker and it's not obvious. Also, it won't be obvious to local people when I explain the acronym.
I think this definition makes sense here: "A panel is a small group of people who are chosen to do something, for example to discuss something in public or to make a decision."
www.collinsdictionary.com/dictionary/english/panel
(although the IPCC is not small!)
Why do these reports include a disclaimer stating that projections of changes such as sea level do NOT include or add into the projections important contributions from methane, melting permafrost, tundra, etc? Also, in addition to your stationary bicycle, do you have a bicycle that will travel places?
YAY! finally some light reading :P. But I am going to enjoy having even better graphs and statements to show why deniers are wrong more clearly
if this is your light reading, I'd love to know what you read when you're in the mood for something dense!
@@ClimateAdam Fluid dynamics does my head in arrrggggh
Perfect. I am happy findinh you
Thanks for giving a basic overview of how the IPCC works
your nail paint is turquoise or just ocean blue .
Really helpful
So glad you think so!
0:53, lol nice one. But it kind of distracted me from what was being spoken.
as far as I can remember, it was "something, something, 1988, something"
@@ClimateAdam , yup got that. I just rewatched that part. :)
"clean coal rules" - that must have been Australia!
This year ipcc report if going to be stark
5:40 so how do these people pay bills?
so in general authors of the IPCC have full time jobs doing other things (e.g. researchers / lecturers at universities). so they have to find the time to do the IPCC work around their regular commitments.
so it's generally very demanding on the authors, but don't worry... they're not going to starve!
@@ClimateAdam Actually we may all starve a bit in the coming years.
Please say you are wearing eco-friendly polish for the nails.
Don't forget, when you are shocked and upset while reading the report, this was intentional. Corporations and Governments knew the damage being done. This is not our individual responsibility to fix, that would be successful gaslighting if we thought it was all our fault. There are key players that must carry the weight and we must make them. Sure, we didn't create this problem, but our generation must solve it. That's just our Zeitgeist.
That 95% figure sounds really low to me.
it's been updated to 'unequivocal':
ua-cam.com/video/b-IPsCWVIRA/v-deo.html
'Human induced emissions of greenhouse gases', translates as,
The World Population Demand for Carbon Energy,
causes, The Magnitude of The World Carbon Energy Economy,
and causes, The Magnitude of World Carbon Dioxide Emissions.
The Urgent Need, to reduce The Cause of World Carbon Dioxide Emissions,
is The Urgent Need, to reduce The World Population Demand for Carbon Energy.
Are there any disputes about the IPCC science?
I mean - is any of it disputed?
If so, where are the disputes mentioned or recorded?
Thanks for the info. Forlorn request: Would you please not include background music in future presentations?
IPCC reports have always been watered down by corporate editing. This no longer works because the crisis has arrived. Prepare for the unpreparable.
Pay peanuts - get monkeys!
Answer: It isn't important to anyone but fraudulent researchers.
Panic much? Greta would be so pleased by your hysteria.
but.. it wasn't even hysterical at all? he's just explaining how the papers are made. Did you even watch it or just make an assumption?
