Having watched most of the video, hoping he would come up with some concrete data, I discovered that this entire presentation was simply demonstrating the futility of hypothetical conjecture with very little data to support his ideas. Net result, the concept of tipping points appears like utter nonsense. He's simply not factoring in that Mother Earth has her own protection mechanisms that, as has been displayed over millennia, rights wrongs very efficiently. Just look at the last 25 years, extra co2, slightly warmer and Earth has decided to grow her green cover by close to 20%. That is, an area greater than the entire United States, of extra green space helping the equilibrium situation. I have faith in our Earth more than theoretical scientists, but, we still need these scientists for our development of our knowledge.

Britain also destroyed the industries in both India and in the Ottoman Empire by imposing IMF type policy on both of them by liberalising imports in 19 th century. In India first they looted Bengal to increase investments for industrial revolution in England in 1760 onwards; Bengal was occupied in 1757. Then British destroyed the looms and cut off the fingers of the weavers to destroy the textile industry in Bengal. In the Ottoman Empire they imposed a trade treaty in 1838 in exchange for British help to subdue the rebellion in Egypt.

36:28 Gen. Getúlio Vargas did create the labour legislation we still have and it was inspired by Mussolini's Carta del Lavoro from 1927. It was put into law in 1943 when Brazil was already part of the Allied Powers in WWII. Vargas headed the 1930 Revolution (a power takeover through political means) and ruled until 1937 in a democratic fashion but then started the Estado Novo (New State) that lasted until 1945. The New State was the bloodiest and most ruthless dictatorship we ever had. The difference between the Argentinian and Brazilian cases is that Vargas did revolutionize the country and the State: he greatly diminished the large land owner's power and started a real industrialization process (with the help of Franklin Roosevelt and Nelson Rockefeller); he also built the State infrastructure creating the institutions like the National Institute for Geography and Statistics (IBGE), the scientific research funding institution and, most importantly, the Electoral system with secret vote and a Electoral Tribunal. When Vargas became president in 1930, Brazil was a phony democracy but when he left we had all the institutions needed to hold fair elections. Vargas was later elected president in 1950 - a presidency that faced strong opposition since before the president elect was sworn in. The situation got so extreme that we ran the real risk of a civil war but Vargas found a way out: on August the 24th, 1954, after asking his heart surgeon son to show him where exactly was the heart located in the chest, he put a bullet in his heart. He killed himself, the opposition and the risk of a civil war. The most important public administration college in Brazil is the Getúlio Vargas Foundation (FGV).

Franklin Roosevelt, through the US treasury, financed the construction of a steel works company, the National Steel Works Company (CSN); Nelson Rockefeller helped Vargas with the loans needed to build a mining company that's now called Vale S.A. - the seventh largest mining company in the world.

Brazil's monopoly of natural rubber production started to end in 1900 when the UK started to produce it in Malaysia from seeds smugled decades before that. The rubber producers are known here as "Rubber Barons" and the English translation fits because they were also Robber Barons - they robbed from the workers here and from their buyers - and that's what lead Britain to adapt the tree to a different environment.

UK has never had agricultural reform and its very heavily ologarchic. In fact British say this tight control of the farmland made people migrate to the cities and trigger industrialization. So now this is bad for other countries? Almost 100% of countries that had smallholders are wretchedly poor today, its the exception and not the rule that smallholder countries like the US were successful.

It comes down to this question: how many people would die if CO2 were returned to pre-industrial levels? How many would die (if any) if solar geoengineering were used? And by the way, solar geoengineering is already being done, by removing sulphur from ship fuels, and see how there has been a nearly immediate increase in sea surface temperature, that cannot be explained by El Nino or CO2. The temperature is 5 or 6 orders of magnitude more sensitive to sulphur than to CO2, so it requires a relatively tiny amount of sulphur to cool the planet. We will end up doing it, that is inevitable. The question is, will we do it in a timely and thorough way, before numerous tipping points are reached? It may be that governments will take so long dithering, that a large number of individuals such as Make Sunsets will just go ahead and do it. And governments in hot countries with deep pockets are likely just to do it, whether or not some people object. Billions of people would starve if CO2 were reduced too rapidly, as crop yields would collapse.

Crop yields would not collapse if CO2 was rapidly reduced. Where the ef did you read that bs? We were alright at 350 ppm. But it's now 420 ppm +. And FYI at 40 degrees Celsius plant metabolism stops and the flora at that point actually starts putting CO2 into the atmosphere.

The Make Sunsets organisation is run by two people who are very concerned about global warming. At least they are doing something. It is very easy to criticise someone, but unless you can offer a better alternative, then why not let them get on with it? At least they are not expending CO2 flying to endless climate congerences. The numbers attending are growing at a faster rate than CO2 emissions! If they really cared they would do the conference via Zoom. The professor is wrong: CO2 does not stay in the atmosphere forever, so his calculation is incorrect. There is a huge increase in plant life around the planet, particularly in semi-arid areas, because the plants grow better with enhanced CO2. This vast increase in plants represents a sink of CO2.

How do you think those balloons are made. How do you think they are lifted into the air? It takes a lot of energy to do that which is primarily via fossil fuel burning. And did you not pay attention to the fact that sulphur only remains in the atmosphere for 1 or 2 years whereas CO2 has an average lifespan of 50 years. Do the math. Think. And the alternative is renewables obviously. But whenever that clear solution is offered to anyone addicted to the notion that fossil fuels are key to the economy they always reply 'What other solutions are there'.🤪 Like brainwashed minions, the solution is offered but you ignore it because that is what Big Oil has taught you to say. Either wake up or grow up!

I lasted 11 minutes into this program and decided he's going nowhere. We all know how inaccurate these models are so using them as key discussion points irks me. Secondly, he said he's already shown how the CO2 changes are causing warming. Yeah right. We all know historically that CO2 levels rise following warming. Lastly, he appears to completely ignore key factors outside of CO2. Seems very limited to me. Please let me know if he addresses these issues later in his speech and I'll watch it later. Just spent an hour listening to Prof Dilley at a Tom Nelson podcast so I'm now feeling I'm at a tipping (or is that sleeping point?!) Dilley was brilliant with the graphs, data and ideas he covered. Thoroughly recommend viewing it.

The additional effect of reducing sulphur from ship fuel is that this leads to a reduction in algae and phytoplankton. These organisms require sulphur (as do humans). If there is a reduction in numbers of algae and phytoplankton there will thus be a reduction in CO2 thatthey absorb. They account for nearly half of global absorption of CO2, and also a significant amount of oxygen production. In addition they produce DMS, which naturally cools the planet. The cutting of sulphur seems to have been done with zero thought for adverse consequences. The solar flux increase is measurable by satellite. Look up James Hansen and Leon Simons.
@bluegold21
@bluegold21 16 сағат бұрын
It also takes more energy i.e. fossil fuel burning, to remove the sulphur. This is why the policy was likely so quickly jumped on by the petrochemical industry without any call for studies that they constantly ask for with CO2 mitigation.

Interesting. There are modern parallels of migration vs incorporation in Britain. Whilst there is evidence ( mainly from literature) that invading romans remained separate from but lived amid ancient celtic britons, it was assumed that they fled before the angles, saxons and jutes that invaded after the recession of the romans. However, study of language and settlement names suggests that they comingled and interbred, the language of the richer and more powerful invaders being adopted by the upwardly mobile natives- just as what happened after the norman invasion. The brythonic and wylisc of the south west and wales simply stayed put and their locale was too distant from the invaders to be impacted.

Why I can't buy into "Climate Change" is for the simple reason that it rains here and there every day, sometimes flooding, it still snows, sometimes a lot in some places more than "normally," it's still windy and cold when it should be warm... etc., etc. Nothing changed about that. We can't stop volcanic eruptions nor lightning strikes as they also occur some 6k strikes per minute globally or 8 million strikes a day thus adding to the ozone layer. Electric cars, trucks and buses are a failure. Who is going to stop the US from firing rockets into space, stop playing war games exploding ammunition, stop all airplanes from flying, ships from transporting goods and stop people from breathing and talking???

Lol this is disturbingly blinkered. Even at 1.5 degrees above pre-industrial levels, we are paying trillions in damages each year. Just wait for the yearly predictable food harvests to start failing regularly (this has just started to appear in localised losses). At 2-3 degrees it will be anarchy. Modern human civilization will implode, which will include widening wars, probably going nuclear. Climate change will be our "great filter", we are halfway there.
