By 2030 (6.5 years away), the world needs to lower CO2 emissions by 50% in order to stop it going over 2C between now and 2050). Does anyone think the world is going to do that? If not, then we're done for.
I will never fear the earth, no matter how much money corrupts these fake journalists in their vile attempts to brainwash. Tired psyops.
I won’t believe it until I see penguins start to go extinct.
What's consistently missing from these conversations is the five hundred pound gorilla very few see or acknowledge. These are FOSSIL FUELS. Tens of millions of years of pressure and heat piled on vast quantities of dead life forms created these hydrocarbon molecules. We're using 100 billion barrels of oil equivalent fossil fuels energy per year. It follows that if we use that much per year we must find NEW reserves that equal 100 billion barrels in AVAILABLE fossil fuels. Yet we know there is no Oil Fairy refilling the holes. Our leaders set new standards in foolishness willful self ignorance and a slavish devotion to the $$$big oil brings. Today we're 8 billion precious humans and every year another 80 million net new precious humans join us. At birth they make a lifetime claim on barrels of fossil fuels energy. Poor individual a couple of barrels. Wealthy, thousands of barrels per year. In addition all 8 billion require 2,000 calories of food every day for 30,000 days. Fertilizer is essential! It's made from natural gas. Gas that were burning for transportation and electrical is depleting the reserves. We're committing a form of civilization suicide by ignoring this reality. Our media, like MSNBC, put up these shallow meaningless he said she said simpleton videos and NEVER get to the heart of the matter. Infuriating
Welp, if the pandemic didn’t convince people of this absurd money grab, nothing will. It’s fake!
Nice and cool here in nz….10 degrees.
I live in West Tennessee near Memphis, while severe thunderstorms and heavy rain events are not uncommon, for the past month and a half we’ve had more than four severe storms with so much damage and power outages, typically we would get a storm like that maybe once or twice in the summer, more so in the spring, but it’s become so frequent now and overwhelming 😢
What is sickening is that blackrock and folks caused this phoney climate change. Now they are profiting of of what they started. The same folks who profited of covid. This is to easy to read it's disgusting! Ironicly they also own…. you guessed it NBC! The smart are on to you evil people. Your time of rule will come to an end soon!
Yeah so what? It's been like that with weather for milliions of years, and then it will change the other way again, like it always has. We have no control over that, and never did. If anyone actually thinks that we influence the climate, you are a fool.
Thought this was a snl skit.
Fox News says it's hot because it's summer.
I am old enough to remember when they were telling us the earth would be gone by now and they convinced us to use plastic instead of paper because it was better for the environment. 😂
When the UN holds it's next climate summit by teleconference, I'll listen. Until then you commies can GFY
There is no warming this year stop your alarms.
Yes, the consequences of weather manipulation across the Northern Hemisphere. All the climatologists are complicit in the conspiracy.
🎵🎶only the beginning 🎵🎶only the beginning 🎶🎵 thrilled my health is waning you nutters aren't changing…. 🎶🎵 its all your problem now…..🎶🎵🎶🎵
I find it hard to believe that some people still believe in global warming … Look stupid people smarten up… Back in the 70's the "scientists" said the world was going to freeze over… Now they want you to believe the earth is going to burn up… But I'm about to explain something to you… Ready? Okay first you have to understand that we had an Ice age where the whole planet was frozen over.. It was causes by a meteor hitting our planet… But you need to understand that the North and South pole were not always frozen It froze like everything else after the Meteor hit. So why is the planet warming a bit? Well the North and South pole are finally melting like the rest of the planet did. See it took longer for the Poles to melt because they are the furthest from the sun. Now because they are melting its getting warmer there and here as well. The Poles helped keep the planet a bit cooler. So I really hate to break this news to you totally stupid people but climate change has always happened and its totally natural.. The world is not coming to an end and everything is just as Mother Nature intended it to be.. And don't get too upset because great things are happening because the earth is warming.. We can now grow crops in places that it just was not possible before. NO MORE STARVING PEOPLE!!! Spread the word to other dumb people that the planet is just going back to the way it was before the Ice age and it has nothing to do with humans… The poles are going to melt NO MATTER WHAT YOU DO because its how it is supposed to be….And that is a good thing.
Is there anybody left that still believes these employment-adverse "scientists" that live on climate study grants?
"Yet not ONE mention of climate engineering."- Dane Wigington.
Fossil fuel funded propaganda efforts and billions in political funding/lobbying have ensured a big chunk of people could literally watch the entire planet burn to the ground and still be like climate change isn’t real “it’s just normal weather variations”. Thank god fossil fuel CEOs are making triple digit million dollar salaries. Double digit millions is so last decade.
The climate crisis is REAL!🔥 We have been warned for years…NOW here we are! And the Republicans (and some democrats like Joe Manchin!) could careless because big oil executives are their donors! We need THE GREEN NEW DEAL! Otherwise our children & grandchildren have a grim looking future ahead! Stop the greeedy fossil fuel industry (and factory farming) from destroying our planet!🌍 There's NO PLANET B.
Why are oil executives and anti-climate types world wide still breathing air?
I'm an alien and we laugh at you people.
We are living in the end of days, mentioned in the Bible.
Don't need science, world needs God
Original religion, I feel could have deviated that.
This has been a challenging time, and I appreciate you so much Dr Ofenmu Youtube Channel. You have created a life that I thought was lost, thank you so much for curing my genital herpes virus.
You know what has a huge carbon footprint….WAR also depleted uranium rounds and cluster bombs aren't great for the environment either!!
When you can prove to me it's Climate Change and not Operation Popeye, I will believe you.
But lets just continue to bicker about gender and politics and push harder for ww3…🙄
China is best at putting put an act and show. They arent going to do anything. They're only interested in money, eonomic growth, taiwan and military prowess. If the world suffers so be it. They will do a top job covering up. They have a flawless history of pretending something never happened and making ppl that threatens their appearance disappear
I'd sure love to know what's going on with geoengineering and the effect it has on global weather.
The UAE have been making rain thousands of times more than is natural, and we've been doing it since the 60's.
Also makes me wonder why we're not using it to control all these droughts and wild fires.
What's the actual deal with geo-engineering?
And yet we will carry on going to the mall and buying crap we don’t need. We will want the latest iPhone and the latest car. We will breed indiscriminately, carry on polluting and expect other people to mitigate the problems. We will continue to avoid restructuring our economies and take refuge in dismissive labels like ‘woke’. The justice in all this is that we aren’t going to be able to pass the debt on to our kids. It will be up to us to sort it out.
IPCC says that there is no connection between Climate Change and extreme weather.
Canada had similar fires 100 years ago
Rubbish, the climate has been changing for 4.5 billion years and will keep doing so.
Water temperatures near the Florida Panhandle haven’t deviated from their yearly averages yet. In Pensacola, the water temperature on Thursday was 84.7 degrees, slightly below the 86.2-degree average in July, according to NOAA.
I'll wait for the movie, they have a happy ending…
This is a completely idiotic off topic aside but the little gif render for the video preview is weirdly hypnotizing. If it weren't for the flag in the background it would be editable to a clean loop.
Dats not good for dem folks lol 😂
the "find out" stage. let's take action about it
God wheee r u 😢
