If I were to sit here and show you multiple areas that are exiprencing flooding (India, Brazil, sectors of the United States) you would sit here and deny it's all happening saying it a natural phenomenon. So tell me what exactly would convince you that this shit is real and needs to he handled??

Its funny that they call solar and wind devices green renewable energy. Lets just start with how the supply chain works, because the supplies to make things like solar panels and wind turbines are shipped all over the world multiple times, to the producers, then to the company warehouses, then to local stores and warehouses, and then finally to consumers. By the time the reach where they are going, they have already used more fuel than they will save during their use. The same goes for electeic vehicles. Then look at the mining for some of these supplies, it produces toxic waste. These toxins are horrible for humans, animals, and the environment. In Africa it is basically slave labor to mine cobalt for EVs, adults and children work in the heat digging the cobalt out by hand. Once they are manufactured and in use, they dont last very long. And one of the biggest issues with these "green" energies is that they are not able to be recycled AT ALL. There are wind turbine and solar panel graveyards full of garbage that has toxic ingredients. As these items break down those toxins will be absorbed into the earth, rain will cause run off that will spread the toxins, and eventually they will make their way into the air. In no way are these items the answer.

A very wise man once said that the earth expels waste much like people do. It’s natural to do so. Gasses and oils are the earth’s waste being released, “to make it feel better”. The fact that people found a way to put the earth’s natural waste to use, I think is a wonderful thing. Could it be done better? Sure, but not eliminate it. We do far more damage by littering and building. We smother the land. I think efforts in these areas would be far better. There are so many abandoned homes, buildings and complexes. Small mountains of concrete piling up. And never ending litter. You want to be green? Start there

China and India are considered developing countries. The goal of $20 billion given from developed to developing countries to mitigate CO2 emissions wasn’t reached. It make take trillions from America to help them start to reduce their CO2 by 2030. China’s emissions will continue to rise, till 2030 with the goal of reducing emissions by about a third of 2005 levels.

Let’s agree that energy companies, like any organization on the planet, whether public or private, has a vested interest in self preservation. Fine, what isn’t as clear, and apologies if I ended the video too early is the alternative energy approach. I had high hopes that hydrogen fuel cell technology would play a role, but we seem to be 100% committed to battery electric vehicles, for instance. Rather than argue, let’s find the new North Star, the new moonshot we can rally behind.

@bobd251 3 ай бұрын

I think the Hydrogen alternative has turned out to be a pipe (opium) dream. That's why you don't hear much about it. The good news, as far as I can tell, is nuclear energy for electric generation. And also that all the hype about CO2 destroying the planet is absolute nonsense. We should be celebrating that there is in fact no reason to believe we are facing a climate crisis. So we can all relax, we have time to figure it out which includes advances in technology and the fossil fuels aren't running out any time soon.

How old are you? Since the 70s they have screamed about the climate change and nothing happened. In the 70s, it was the coming Ice Age and in 10 years we will have ice covering North America as far down as Oklahoma. As history shows, none of these came to be. Every one of the hoaxes never even started to happen. If we are really concerned about the Earth, we should start talking about our throw away society. Just think of this joke about bottled water. Most of it is straight out of the same municipal tap water people use.
