@@koushikdas1992 I ride 40 km a day to work on a bicycle. But that is not the point. If these criminals hadn't lied 40 years ago, most people would have cheap, reliable, and save public transport by now. (Of course, EVs would also be on a totally different level by now, but public transport is even more environmentally friendly and, besides, can even be used by handicapped or elderly people who cannot drive a car.) The reason people are using cars is that the entire infrastructure of almost every country on earth is built around cars. Only within the last years, some pioneer countries started investing into bicycle and public transport and it massively, MASSIVELY improved the quality of life for everyone. Especially for people who live in cities, but also for everyone else. It all comes down to political decisions which are affected by what we, the people, know, as well as by that what companies do to influence such decisions. If politicians and the public had not been confused through lies, you would probably not even need a bike.

The most sadistic of their strategies was to tap conservative groups to teach the god-fearing public that climate can only be affected by god. And tbh the leaders of those religious groups probably knew full well that they were lying to their congregation, especially the watchtower nuts who without coincidence began to rise in popularity during the late 70s and early 80s' just as the global warming signal was observed by scientists. The oil comps then began turning it into a political question as opposed to one of health and safety. Scientists had no political party. But the right-wing corporate fascists did, including support of the conservative zealots. It was always a rigged game and if hell was real then they belong in it.

Are we all ready to go back to the 19th century? and raise our own food? There are 394,342,000 acres of arable land in the US, and 333.3 million citizens, just a little over 1 acre per person.

And the "experts" predictions have been comically wrong for decades. In then 1990s they claimed the polar ice caps would be almost completely melted by 2020 yet those same ice caps are larger than they've been in decades. They predicted several degrees of warming but even with their skewed and biased reports the temperature has barely risen one degree in 5 decades. When are people going to acknowledge this whole thing is about power and control and the climate science is absolute junk meant to scare the population into compliance.

Oh, they lied to Congress. It was obvious in the 1970's because about 20 countries were running Weather Modification, aka climate change, programs in their countries to change the climate. By 2010's over half of the countries in the world were running programs to change the weather/climate...so, with that many countries running weather change programs many people would notice. However, weather/climate change has very little to do with you, me, and the oil companies. If the Governments around the world stopped running their weather modification programs the "climate change" would just stop. Look on the World Meterological Organization for a list o Weather Modification Programs by Country, they provide a list of these to the UN every year. Years 1980-2010 are discoverable on the internet...after 2010 becomes tricky, they put a lock on the lists. The lists will tell you: Country, Program Name, Weather Modification Delivery Method, Year. Now, if you still really want to hate the energy companies...look into whether they cause earthquakes....they'd rather you run in circles over 'climate change' than actually look into their earthquake activities.

They report on these projects every year to the UN via the World Meteorological Organziation. If you search for WMO Weather Modification Country Lists Yearly Reporting...you may be able to find some of the lists between 1980-2010. Pretty interesting read...and you will not like the UN or all of this blaming you for climate change propoganda. They know exactly who is changing the climate, how it's being done, the program names, and organized by Country. It's not you, me, or the gasa companies changing the climate...it's the UN, WMO, and Governments that are changing the climate...and, if they stop running the programs...climate change just stops.

If every home owner removed all grass and replaced it with native flowers bushes and trees unless desert then cactus and some native trees. If all off ramps with there empty dirt sides were full of native flowers bushes and trees then it can and will make a dent in the co2. Plant everything from seed it will be cheaper and it will adapt better to there environment.

80 percent of global carbon dioxide emissions were produced by just 57 companies. This is an evil corporate problem where profits and pure evil, greed is put ahead of all the rest of humanity. They are the ones humanity needs to target for both change and revenge for the damage already done. The fossil fuel industry has switched up to trying to get average people to either give up in despair or take on the blame on each other instead of them. Do not fall for it.

To balance our current atmospheric carbon emissions we need around 35% more natural carbon sinks. Trees, and other natural places like peat lands. That is 35% MORE nature than we have now. Where are we going to put it? Of course we need to stop destroying natural carbon sinks, reclaim some natural land, and sure plant some trees. But there is no way we can plant more than a trillion trees. Plant your trees. But also cut emissions from your life and the company you work for as well.

How did scientists in 1982 predict that China would become such a huge manufacturing center and global consumer?

They looked at overall trends for many decades, not geopolitical ups and downs here and there. And, in the 1980's China was already ramping up industry to say the least. December 1978 was when the Chinese leader Deng Xiaoping announced China's "reform and opening," which kicked China's capitalist economic development into high gear. Any dolt could see where that was going.

Not true. Only the elite is consuming ever more. They are taking 10 minute flights in their private jets. The rest of us working class people can't even afford to destroy the climate.

It's easy for some people to say "but the public buys it" which is to say, supply and demand. It's true that we wouldn't have been able to just stop using fossil fuels when it was first discovered how harmful the excessive usage is, as we are already using its products and a lot of industries depended on it. The public needed it. But if instead of fighting, denying, and spreading misinformation, these corporations actually studied and made changes in their products, maybe we won't be having the problems we have now. The general public cannot make huge changes - we buy based on what options we have and based on the information we know. It is the corporations who have the power and money. They clearly chose what to use that power and money for.

Watching a movie about misinformation and comment with misinformation😂. All latest researches show that EV are the most reliable alternative - and we do a lot of research in Germany and are leading in gas engine production. You will always find papers showing the opposite cause sience is democratic and everyone can publish. You are responsible to check if your recourse is valid e.g. in Germany the association of the gas engine building companies has done a research- what outcome would you expect? Afterward it turned out that they calculated with a 1 l/100km engine and the EV only used electricity from coal. But even then the EV was not much worse. That showed me that even in the worst worse Szenario EV are the best solution. Regarding some other misinformation: Do you know that most Lithium comes from Australia and that the tourism industry in the Attacama uses more water that Lithiumproduction. New batteries like in Tesla Model 3 don’t use Cobalt anymore. The proportion of renewables in Germany in 2023 was over 60%. China has built more solar in 2023 that the total rest of the world in his history.

I think you're missing the dying forest for the dying trees, my friend.

The fascinating thing is that as was pointed out the strategies employed by the oil companies are exactly the same as those employed by the tobacco industry in the 1960's and 70's. Even more than that the recovery strategies used by those same tobacco companies are already being copied by the oil companies. Once the tobacco industry realized that it could not fight the changes they pivoted to another similar product that they could control and that product is vaping with claims that it is a healthy alternative to smoking, something that research is proving wrong. For the oil industry it is hydrogen, once again a product that they can control and monopolize. It looks green and is not something that can be done on a small scale but when you look a little deeper it is not green at all and makes no sense in the transport sector. The problem they have with direct electricity is that they are unable to control the production of distribution nor will they ever be able to therefore they cant control the price.

The oil industry knew about the consequences of their industry since the 1960s, and recently I heard that it might go back even further to the 1940s. Any legal action against them in the past was considered to be political, thus no action taken. I definitely agree that the industry should not be getting subsidies for their recklessness. There might finally be legal action taken against the industry based on crimes against humanity which I whole heartedly support.

The willful ignorance of the people running the oil companies puts them individually in a very precarious ethical position. A judgement of ‘evil’ becomes a viewable assessment.

13:11 Statement is from 2022. CO2 (USA) from Oil/Gas 2002: 3,78 billion t, 2022: 4,05 billion t. Is that substantially reducing?

By volume, the dry air in Earth's atmosphere is about 78.08 percent nitrogen, 20.95 percent oxygen, and 0.93 percent argon, adding up to 99.96 percent. A brew of trace gases accounts for the other approximately 0.04 percent, including the greenhouse gases carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide and ozone. To think that a small increase (200 parts per million in the last hundred years) of carbon dioxide would affect the weather is absurd.
