June 14 -- Most of the talk about climate change has been about reducing the emissions we’re going to make; but what about the emissions we’ve already made? Cleaning up that mess is going to be hard, expensive and controversial. But it’s also going to be necessary. On this episode of Unsolvable we meet the people who are already figuring out how we’ll do it.

@@zUJ7EjVD The issue is that countries like Australia and France have introduced measures that disproportionately affect the poorest in society. Global warming is a problem caused by the accumulation of wealth and it is the wealthy that must be made to pay for it. A quote from the climate conference COP24:"if the wealthiest 10% lived like average Europeans CO2 emissions would fall by 1/3". The wealthiest 10% are responsible for more than 50% of CO2 emissions.

"We accidentally messed up the climate" Are you kidding me right now?? I was taught about climate change in primary school in the 90s! Some researchers knew about it in 40s. Exxon learned about it in 50s and Carl Sagan warned us about it in the 60s. But somehow it was an extreme notion for American public in 2009~ Everything was mindfull, conscious and premeditated, cuz Benjamins are more important.

It's not just the Benjamins. By the 1940's human societies had already exploded thanks to the cheap energy that coal, gas and oil provided. The Haber Bosch process was in full swing, and mechanized farms were pumping out the food stuffs, and even the third world was beginning its 'green revolution'. If we were to stop using FFs, you'd have revolt, the forests would be denuded for fuel, and the system would collapse. It's going to happen, because we can't stop without billions perishing. So we're all going to perish.

Lots of companies are making grips of money going "Green". That's the way things are going. All about the Benjis :) Did they mention water vapor in your school lessons? I thought we called it global warming in the 90's. Changed the verbiage when we had a couple cold years. Climate change has been going on for a long time. Infact temperatures have been going up ever since the Ice Age. We have brief cold spells (that's where we get Stradivarius violins from), but over all it's been going up. People seem to really not like it when I gets cold though. Lots of famine and disease. Btw, the oil companies are on the front lines of alternative energy sources. Maybe they were conspiring to to destroy the Earth before, but if going "Green" is trying to save the planet, then it would seem they've changed their ways and are the major players fighting climate change. What a bunch of nice guys.

Why would anyone in their right mind want to build something that has to be tediously maintained, when natural plants will do this job in a completely automated fashion? Plus, plants get better at extracting CO2 (and waste less water) when there is more CO2 present. If that is not a negative feedback pressure, then I don't know what is.

Y'all need to improve your sourcing for your B-roll footage. You showed a shot of a field that had merely been harvested (with unharvested, healthy green crops in the background) while talking about drought. You showed cooling towers when talking about air pollution merely because the cooling towers had lots of water vapor riding out of them. So that looks like pollution but any astute observer knows it isn't. There are plenty of examples of real drought and real pollution coming out of smokestacks. Why did you not show those?

In Finland those who cut down forests plant new ones about 150 million a year. The forests grow about 110 million cubic meters of wood every year. That is a lot of CO2 taken out of air and oxygen released. Any amount of those expensive machines will be only a drop in ocean in comparison. You are on the right track Jakob, planting trees will give the most bang for the buck.

Perhaps exposure to steam made with concentrated solar works also I hope because this requires less water and even sea water could be used and the condensed water vapor could be useful.

About reducing warming: Could warming be reduced with high roofs blocking some heat with solar panels arranged in a checkerboard like pattern let enough light and water through while at the same time generating electricity? Or what if a similar arrangement were orbiting the planet in space? It could block some of the heat while still letting enough light through for the things we need. It also could be arranged in such a way that the shading panels could rotate to let more or less light through. Maybe the electricity could be stored in batteries and sent back to Earth, or some wireless transmission like Tesla suggested is possible?

What is green house principle for an airborne gas that never get explained in the mainstream medias? The principle is the same as in a microwave oven. A magnetron sent a microwave signal at 2.45 gigahertz which is the resonant frequency of the water molecule contained in the food. It heats up under the incoming wave and communicate that heat to it surrounding. CO2 has two such frequencies: one next to 20 terahertz and the second next to 70 terahertz. There are satellites which bear spectrometer on board measuring out-coming rays to space and at these two frequencies the returned energy to space is less than 5% of what is available and that percentage is essentially associated to the combined effect of reflected heat upon the top of clouds and on the ice found at the poles. Adding CO2 will not result in increasing temperature as stated by this geopolitical institution called IPCC. Since this molecule of CO2 is food for vegetation. Any adding of this molecule will only benefit to them.

The real question is the CO2 it can absorb over it life time is greater than the CO2 it took to make this material, it would be great if someone could figure out a way to remove the carbon only and make a large sheet of diamond glass with the carbon.

Its the rate of change rather than the change itself at the cause of the problem. Nature takes time to adapt so I am fully for this research to go ahead because i like polar bears. peace out!

This is not a realistic, cost effective idea unfortunately. We would have to remove ten gigatons per year in order to reduce the levels of carbon in time to prevent disaster. Not sure how this could be achieved. What we do need is a program that can earn a profit while reducing carbon levels. LFTR reactors fit this description.

Trees and other solutions are not mutually exclusive. We need every solution ppl can come up with. The advantage of the carbon capture example in this video is that the carbon can then be used for other purposes.

I really don't understand 2 things: 1. Why always saving the earth? It's about securing inhabitablte conditions on this planet. 2. Why not simply massively plant trees, food forests and transform industrial agriculture to agroforestry. Please do a documentary about mind shifting in financial policies to foster these urgently needed transformations... Maybe we need another playground for people besides making money... gamification of sustainable actions of some kind...

The music in the background was quite unnecessary and conflicted with the ability to hear the commentary clearly. Documentaries dealing with serious topics should especially avoid adding music noise to the commentary. When are we going to understand that adding two audio files side by side create aural conflict and disturbance. I for one found this (and other innumerable documentaries I have watched) very annoying. But does anyone listen!
