What are the Greenhouse Gases - Are they all the same?

Ғылым және технология

In this episode, I look at the Greenhouse Gases (GHGs) recognised by the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). It explains the seven types of GHG and that not all GHGs have the same impact on our atmosphere and climate change.
These Greenhouse Gases are important to the Paris Agreement, which require all signatories to take action on reducing these GHGs through their Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs).

    Because of activists and activism’s embarrassing handling of legitimate criticism of the climate change issue and corresponding proposals, I became a climate change skeptic. The YT algorithm recommended your channel to me, so I gave a watch, and I have to say it’s a breath of fresh air hearing someone speak about climate change without demonizing dissent as science deniers. I’ve found your videos to be delightfully informative, so thank you. Have subscribed.

    Slick, well-produced, and well-researched video presented in an easily understandable manner. This is the kind of down-to-earth climate change messaging we need more of. You have just gained a new subscriber!

    Thank you for the breakdown what ARE greenhouse gases. Now someone please explain to me the math of it. Let's focus on CO2 first, which there is the most of. My problem is prior to industrial revolution there was more trees. Trees need sun and co2 to produce oxygen. Obviously no one was dying from lack of oxygen prior to mass producing of co2, and somehow planet stayed at about the same temperature? But currently the claim is that current emissions are something like 40 billion tons of CO2 a year. Which would require something like 800 Billion trees to absorb it a year. But according to estimates there is something like 3 TRILLIONS of JUST trees, then there is grass, brushes, oceans, probably other things that absorb all that pollution so what does that mean? Is Oxygen overproduced now? I seem to breath ok? Something is wacky with the math. I'm sorry, I'm being skeptical, but I vividly remember the same anonymous "scientist" were predicting 2nd Ice age coming within my life time just 40 years ago. I just don't get it.

    If you want to build a Greenhouse are any rules or laws that I have to think of? And is it the same in every state?

    Good question - The bigger question is whether all of us should build the biggest Greenhouse covering the whole world or stand back from building a Greenhouse and change to saving the planet, we all share together.

    How carbon tax policies effectively utilize to minimize the GHGs?

    You raise an interesting question - The opportunities for a Carbon Tax to directly target the specific impacts of products or activities that can produce GHGs and, thereby, minimise climate change. Two articles may help to prompt increased understanding - Addressing climate change through carbon taxes by the World Economic Forum at www.weforum.org/agenda/2021/06/addressing-climate-change-through-carbon-taxes/ & an interesting "For" and "Against" article - Is a Carbon Tax the Best Way to Reduce GHG Emissions? at albertaviews.ca/carbon-tax-best-way-reduce-ghg-emissions/
