  1. I hope people will realize. Your quality of life will significantly decline. Co2 emissions or toxic waste is based on energy production. So if you decrease output. You decrease the amount of energy to produce goods per people. Thus making you poorer and increasing the cost of everything. Things are already expensive for inflation. But be prepared. Survival of the fitness.

  2. I got my debts / loan cleared all thanks to Maskoffaid for their wonderful service has really transform my life

  4. Ummmm we ARE toooo late… GOD HAVE MERCY ON OUR GREAT GRANDKIDS 😢

  5. I heard this news years ago. Did people forget?

  6. Why is it they show photos of cooling towers at the intro – when the only emission is STEAM!
    Come on let’s show smoke stacks with real emission issues.

  7. (yawn) Tell all the rich people to stop flying to climate conferences in their private jets. Otherwise, shut up.

  8. Get ready for the pole shift

  9. God controls the weather, as in Noah's worldwide flood 5,000 years ago!

  10. Pay up first then we MIGHT fix it… one day.

  11. Where's the profit? Must have a profit motive first and foremost! (<<<Molesters)
    …or at least pad the pockets of the politicians to make things to at least start happening. (<<<Cuckolds)

  12. If we just throw enough money at recurring natural events that have been ongoing for millions of years, we can make a difference! I understand the human impact. I also believe the biggest human impact is greed. Fix that. The planet will correct itself from there.

  13. Good luck. USA green light dumping Fukushima nuclear dirty bomb into Pacific Ocean.

  14. Apathy and ignorance will be our downfall. Start watching and learning what you can from those "Mad Max" movies because that's what the future will look like.

  15. Yep, the verdict is in

    We, fcuked the world up proper.

    Next, MARS

  16. So now it's global warming again…..

  17. Nothing will change. Immediate action was needed for decades. Big OIL owns our politicians.

  18. Their timing it's just impeccable. Hey, global warming we're doom. Sir, we're having the most extensive winter of a century.

  19. I will be long gone before climate change is ever a real problem for me. Now my kid may be a different story I fear for his future!

  20. Socialists are so off-putting

  21. If anything a college education has taught me is that history repeats itself in human minds: graduated as a history major. I believe there is an inherent identity throughout time that focuses in on the end of the world. Religion dictated it over 100 years ago, it was predicted during the world wars, it was predicted as global cooling during the 1970s and now it is predicted climate change in the current day. I would predict that another liberal movement will come about 20 years from now.

  22. …and every year we say 'we need to act' and every year we do nothing.

  23. We did this to ourselves 😢

  24. let me guess, in order to save the earth humanity needs to drive electric cars, eat bugs, vote democrat and make every child transgender? i mean global warming is racist apparently.

  25. Bottom line:
    There are WAY too many humans on this planet. All reproducing individuals competing for limited resources living in expanding nations competing for limited resources….
    On and on and on…..

  26. WHY LORD 👃 DO WE SLEEP WHILE OUR BEDS R BURNING?

  27. The United Nations is a Private Corporation founded by the Rockefeller Crime Family. It is Staffed and Controlled by the Global Financial Elite Cabal. To convert to Total Renewable Energy would take 200 years. You are spewing massive lies.

  28. Did you know the Earth's magnetosphere is weakening, and that the poles are moving?
    #Suspicious0bservers

  29. I hate when they show pictures of cooling towers when they talk about pollution. It destroys all credibility of anything they report.

  30. Its to late.. Enjoy now because their is no Future.

  31. So we back to global warming because all those predictions were bogus like the mini ice age they said was inevitable in the 60s and 70s?

  32. Job 38:22-38 ISV
    22 Have you entered the storehouses of the snow or seen where the hail is stored,

    23  which I’ve reserved for the tribulation to come, for the day of battle and war?

    24  Where is the lightning diffused or the east wind scattered around the earth?

    25  “Who cuts canals for storm floods, and paths for the lightning and thunder,

    26  to bring rain upon a land without inhabitants, a desert in which no human beings live,

    27  to satisfy a desolate and devastated desert, causing it to sprout vegetation?

    28  “Does the rain have a father? Who fathered the dew?

    29  Whose womb brings forth the ice? Who gives birth to frost out of an empty sky,

    30  when water solidifies like stone and the surface of the deepest sea freezes?

    On the Heavens
    31  “Can you bind the chains of Pleiades or loosen the cords of Orion?

    32  Can you bring out constellations in their season? Can you guide the Bear with her cubs?

    33  Do you know the laws of the heavens? Can you regulate their authority over the earth?

    34  “Can you call out to the clouds, so that abundant water drenches you?

    35  Can you command the lightning, so that it goes forth and calls to you, ‘Look at us!’

    36  “Who sets wisdom within you, or imbues your mind with understanding?

    37  Who has the wisdom to be able to count the clouds, or to empty the water jars of heaven,

    38  when dust dries into a mass and then breaks apart into clods?

    Jeremiah 25:32 KJV
    32 Thus saith the Lord of hosts, Behold, evil shall go forth from nation to nation, and a great whirlwind shall be raised up from the coasts of the earth.

    Jesus is coming soon! Titus 2:13, Hebrews 9:28

  33. Excuse me! That's steam coming out of those cooling towers! As in water! Just for your information and education.. LMAO

  34. Good show UN has put up here today. I don’t know what is the intention for this sudden panic creating 😂

  35. They want to fix global warming by?….TAXES. of course.

  36. Everyone stop driving asap! (Traffic is horrible) 😂

  37. People need to realize that the earth has always been warming! We're still coming out of the ice age.
    Nothing can stop what the earth has always been doing and what it will continue to do regardless of us being here or not.

  38. Immediate as in 100 Years ago…

  39. "Global Warming" is really global cooling because the greenhouse gases block out the UV Rays. What they weren't telling everyone is that we're entering a new ice age because there's already more than enough Glyphosate in the atmosphere alone just to do that, not even taking any other sources of carbon gases into considering.

  40. The Congress has already spoken about it nobody has the proper answers the scientist don't even know if we go to zero emissions in the USA Russia China and the rest of the world will not be there so it's not going to have any effect it's just nothing but rhetoric
