These are the kinds of videos we need more of. During the part where the correlation is shown between temperature and carbon dioxide in the atmosphere over time, there's a great explanation of how ice cores are used to determine CO2 concentration in the past, but there isn't any explanation for how ice cores are used to calculate temperature estimates. Maybe you could show it in a follow-up video?

I had goosebumps throughout the video, let's work together guys ❤

Scientist here. This was well done, initially. The recommendation to "transition to renewables" and "use soil to draw down CO2" comes to us straight from the fossil fuels industry. I will allow for the moment that this was an oversight, but do know the fossil fuels sector is promoting the continued use of their products combined with some vague promise to "fix it later, somehow, a century from now". This advice is lethal for life on Earth, human life included. The only practical solution is to leave all fossil fuels in the ground for all time.

This infrastructure and Build Back Better are not only a disaster for the environment, that are racist. Manmade climate change, unnatural extinction, threats to wildlife, ecosystem collapse, pollution in all forms, pandemics, mass human migration, wars over territory and resources, social inequalities, human starvation, human obesity, factory farming, inflation, unemployment are ALL a direct result of TOO MANY HUMANS competing for survival, with growing tech and transportation/shipping needs, on a finite world. The solution is not to ramp up heavy industry, adding further environmental damage and exploiting developing world slave/child labor, with so called green energy. NO.. the solution is for folks to drastically limit their consumption across the board, which would limit the associated waste; as well as addressing the exponentially increasing human overpopulation that is driving demand beyond planetary capacity by having fewer children or NO children at all. @

But then, the transition required to reduce co2 production also requires burning to create these renewable technologies for the sustainability of our environment. I think, the most effective way to actually reduce co2 production is to rest from the undustrial-technology era. We must give more improtance in the life of our planet,Earth, than the comfort we can experience living here in the planet. Let us not be selfish for we are not the only human beings to experience life and therefore we must share it's beauty to the future generations by being careful of everything we decide now.

@A11A111 You hit the nail on the head. For decades we have spent billions looking for technical, “scientific “ solutions. When the answer has been in front of us. I wish I had a solution on how to sustainably manage population growth.

Love this channel, thanks for educating us. Subscribed!

Thanks you really helped me do my college report on climate change.

Very informative video. 👍

The good news about global warming is that it’s not being caused by increasing solar output or any other natural cause, and also that mankind generally understands that it’s the ‘amplified greenhouse effect’ which is the source of increasing temperatures. With this in mind, it behooves us to rapidly advance and apply our scientific knowledge to the point that burning fossil fuels to produce electricity will become as antiquated as burning whale oil for light. Quote: “Anxiety must go. It must be replaced by faith and solemn confidence in the outworking of the divine plan.” Note: As sunlight (photons) is warming the surface of the Earth, surface heat energy is also radiating away from our planet in the form of ‘infrared radiation’ which passes freely thru the atmospheric gases of nitrogen and oxygen that do not absorb heat. Indeed, if it weren’t for greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide that ‘do interact’ strongly with infrared energy and ‘impede the escape’ of Earth’s radiant heat, then the planet would be perpetually frozen solid. Thankfully, even though greenhouse gases comprise only 4/10ths of one percent of the atmosphere, they are so powerful that they maintain a ‘blanketing effect’ by constantly ‘absorbing and releasing’ the infrared heat energy over and over, again and again. In doing so, they gyrate wildly, thus causing them to vigorously collide with other atmospheric molecules which, in turn, collide with other air molecules, imparting the kinetic energy of motion throughout the atmosphere - and this vibratory state registers as temperature.

Loved it 👍🏻

Wait a sec...how does the graph they show at the 11 minute mark prove temperature rises are correlated to co2 levels? If you look there were huge temperature spikes 850-750k years ago when co2 levels were much lower than they are today.

Rather than explaining that temperatures have risen because the amount of carbon dioxide has increased, I think it would be more convincing to explain that CO2 and CH4 vibrate due to solar radiation. As a result, they retain thermal energy for a long time. Unlike a struck cymbal, vibrating CO2 can continue to vibrate for a long time with almost no friction. When you add in the image of CO2 flowing into the Arctic released by a NASA agency, you can imagine that the Arctic has warmed several times. After all, the North and South Poles are constantly exposed to solar radiation in the summer.

The hottest decade ever???? How could they possibly know that??

why nobody talks about nuclear? it's part of the solution and without it we might not make it as a species in a long enough horizon

CO2 is driven by temperature in glacial cycles, not the other way around (warmer oceans expel CO2).... Correlation is not causation and if there is target fixation, then other variables won't be considered... A better approach would be to look at historic events in the geologic record, rather than making predictions - the PETM event 56M years ago is a better way to look at the current situation. There was approximately 30 times the increase of CO2 in the atmosphere compared with what humans have released and temperatures rose 5-8C.... From this you can see that while CO2 would have an impact (say 0.25C) , there must be other factors to contribute to a 1C rise (ie land clearing and natural variations)

Just watched this again and at 0:55 he states that humans are have a profound impact on the planet but what he doesn’t say is that the Americans are have the highest profound impact on the planet, there’s a difference...!

indonesia still going on coal mining & deforestation for pulp paper & palm oil industry

🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

PY attention. Thank you

2010 was the hottest decade. Why can't these under educated people do their homework. Oh that's right they would rather cause fear and panic.

please make how reduced mealanin in skin?My is dark.please!

I was forced to watch this for a grade.

Remember, the calendar has had a day added in February, for the leap year, for years, so we have moved the calendar so that it does not line up with the seasons anymore. At a minimum, we need to move two months from the beginning of a new year, to put this back to a reasonable alignment with the seasons!

OK stop, video paused at 1 minute 51 second, forest fires in the US are insignificant when compared to deforestation but the US ignores deforestation, in fact, I don’t believe the word ‘deforestation’ in in their dictionaries. Also, the pronunciation of ‘anti’ is not correct by the US, you do not pronounce the ‘i’, it’s just ‘ant-tea’ not ‘ant-i’. It just makes you sound thicker when you pronounce it wrong!
