At the rate this stuff is coming, Hansen is probably being ultra conservative to avoid absolute panic. We are looking on the order of years, not decades, before things really start to unravel.
Everyone is at a different stage in the grief process, this is normal.
Scientists have known about humans' effect on the environment for over a century and a half at least. It's pathetic and irresponsible to blame all of this on laymen now. Rather than despair, we should all get out and do good worksm whatever they may be. That is what brings societies together so they can accomplish things.
Summary of video - propaganda The 2.5C is just 1 more degree. It is not a crisis. It is also unlikely to happen as it ignore errors and uncertainty in calculations that are likely to reduce that rise. There is no evidence that anything unusual is happening, the pre-1850 proxies are all freely available, download a few and marvel at the huge scatter, wild variations, no consistency. At best the myth of a stable past is just an average line drawn through a cloud of disagreeing numbers.
Climate scientists have an ally that believes them and is taking action - insurance companies! They are dropping policies and raising rates at a blistering pace.
We are all denialists. Absolutely nothing substantive is going to be done about climate change. Because Climate Change is a symptom or consequence of Global Industrial Civilization in Overshoot. “Fighting” climate change is like worrying about a blood stain on your new pants….from arterial bleeding of the chainsaw wound on another part of your leg. …….and you will not look at this. ……and that’s ok.
The other issue is the way the media talks about politics is it turns it into “great man theory of history” lens + “us vs them” instead of helping us make it through the complexity and learn together.
Climate is only 1 of the planetary boundaries. There are 8 others. And even if we got climate right the others will screw us too. But the others don’t make it into the national medias narrative because it dosent fit into techno-capitalist religion.
We are at war. We don't have time to be depressed. We have a world to save.
Way back in 1975 I meant Jacque Cousteau getting drunk in Sharm El Shau because he already saw the death of the coral environment!
This climate catastrophy was prophesied 2000 yrs ago in the book of Revelation! What is decreeded must happen!
climate deniers are so stupid and arrogant in their stupidity. Every fucking city in the world is boiling and everybody already can notice that the heat we saw the past year is unlike anything anyone ever seen before.. also how hard it is for people to say who's to blame: capitalism. A system based on the infinite growth in a finite world is obviously going to collapse eventually.
We are in the Natural Cycles of the Earth, humanity isn't the end all be all cause of what we have seen so far and even worse to come.
Thursday August 1 2024,... given the recent Dark Oxygen revelations, .. do yuou consider this a possible threat to Global oxygen levels/
The ongoing climate engineering programs that have been active and expanding worldwide for over 76 years are not working and are literally adding fuel to the fire. When are we going to talk about this?
Fossil fuel addiction spell on humanity is here to stay with the likes of Trump driving crazy agenda of drill baby drill.
Our main issue is not climate change. Give a thought to the physicist that have developed energy negative systems or spontaneous motion systems, that have been silenced or killed for trying to get products on the market that could reduce our emissions to zero overnight. Hmmm. History is littered with them. Hence one could say that climate change is caused by the inability to release known technologies onto the market. Period. Reaching net zero is not the problem.
The battle is over. Now Gaia will roll over and crush us, then start again.
Sadly enough people only respond and take action when another economic crisis is announced.
What needs to happen is a wholesale transition to renewables like wind/solar, but also using electrolyzers off of renewables to produce hydrogen to run fuel cells for transportation to greatly reduce fossil fuel usage. Also need to eliminate fossil fuel subsidies.
Have not seen a worm on the sidewalk during a rain storm in 20 years
28:16 Is the climate manual available in English?
1.5*C has been surpassed in parts of the Globe. Houston, New Orleans both Fossil fuel Hells have increased their local. The Gulf Stream has ceased so big storms come ashore quickly.
They do not know what will happen. Climatologist = astrologer
Climatologists have the benefit of over 350,000 climate studies published in the last fifty years. Astrologers have NOTHING. No data. No evidence. Just magical thinking. Not even remotely the same, Andrew.
The answer is NO
The temperature will be 2°by 2040!
I'll alert the media.
Personally I can't see the problem. Plants grow better in warmer climates. The planet has been far warmer previously, Co2 levels have been far higher previously, and also far lower at times, life not only survives, it thrives when temperatures are higher and precipitation/moisture levels are higher. You are all just a bunch of pessimists and funding seekers. Misery loves company.
Not exactly true, my friend. The plants of hot prehistoric times were cycads, ferns, gingkos and horsetails. WE DON'T EAT THOSE. Only SOME plants grow better in warmer climates. With just a few days above 75 degrees F, cabbage, cauliflower, lettuce, spinach and broccoli all BOLT and stop developing. Between 90-95, tomatoes and cucumbers drop their flowers and cease production. Blueberries become necrotic and rot. Wheat and rice yields plummet. At 104 degrees photosynthesis BREAKS DOWN and many seeds won't even germinate. Think of places in the world like Phoenix, which last summer suffered through 31 straight days of above 110-degree temperatures. If you're a subsistence farmer (and there are still over. sbillion in the world), you lose your crops, your livelihood and your sustenance in one fell swoop. ` It's not nearly as neat and tidy as fossil fuel industry propaganda would have us believe.
Amazing show. Thank you.
I remember reading a story about a climate scientist who was interviewed to be on the IPCC panel. He said that the only people who got selected were the ones who were the most rabid promoters of man-made global warming. If you were in any way objective you were shown the door. Like the man said when the Gold Rush started, “There’s money in them thar hills “. Write a paper with the desired conclusion and collect your check. Wash, rinse, repeat.
I always find funny when these world renowned climate scientists have no idea how simple people live and work. See around 11:10. Last time I've heard another very highly intelligent climate scientist who said it will be very easy to use solar energy for industrial production because people at places like steel mills are working during the day (sic!!!).
We are the frogs in the gradual boiling water…daunting, sad & depressing. So live, love & laugh hard !
I agree with what was said. In fact, I’m sure it’s worse than it was presented. However, there was nothing mentioned about what can be done. Anything that comes to mind would have been great 50 years ago. Do you really think we will all go back to preindustrial lifestyles? And even if we did tomorrow, it’s probably too late. Give me concrete and realistic things that can be done.
Nope. Nothing now can stop it. That is the point of this video. The scientists know the truth. We are caput. All that is left is the grief and sadness of watching as it all ends.
Save Our Planet Now
Nice combining of three different geographic perspectives. I never hear of anyone talking about potential heat which is generated within the earth making its way to the surface. This could warm the ice from below! By a little anyway. We do not know what is going on down there.
Environmentally, is there anything good about pavement? The extraction of the materials, the machines themselves, and the very act of producing paved surfaces, add to warming of the atmosphere.
kzread.info/dash/bejne/Zntlls1slbjOk6g.htmlsi=o9Al8TBHEt4_FCV2 I wish a discussion in depth between respected host Raya Salter & Dr. Ruth Serezo Mota for a very undebated and need to be discussed&research topic , "A Comperison Between Mexican Fissure & African Fissure. , could be earth crust observe more fissures across planet earth onwards" , (UpComming probably: What is a fissure ? What are the types of fissures ? What is correlation fissures ? Whats correlation; fissures & tectonic plates ? How do human immovable joing do've to understand fissure sciences ? How fissures could be highly destructive regarding earth balancing ? How fissures & tectonic plates synergies for what ? so Dr. Ruth Serezo Mota would be a master in that subject too & her position among global crust sciences masters (scientists) will be at indescribable heights additional to her nice standing in 'climate change scientist'. May Almighty Allah bless Raya Salter & Dr. Ruth Serezo Mota. Regards. Shahzada Zulfiqar Haider. Gujrat , Pakistan 🇵🇰.
Please Please Please i wanna for Dr. Ruth Serezo Mota to workOver this assignment & make her name & earn rewards from scientists' communities at top. No any fee for Idea presented, it's all because the face of Dr. Ruth Serezo Mota resembles to my only & beloved mother Noor-e-Fatima & her humer resembles my mother too. May Almighty Allah Bless Respected Dr. Ruth Serezo Mota for unmatched success in Climate&Crust sciences. ❤❤❤❤❤ Main To PanjTan Ka Ghulam Hu. 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
Dear amazingly committed climate team❤ We know that the following countries are emergently requested to follow international co2 standards and plastic norms, airfilter implementations and sewage cleaning facilities: India, China, Russia and US! These major polluters have!! to accept and follow up within the next 2 month moratorium! I sent my urgent request to the highest instance who us still not willing to obey. I am going to intensify the pressure on Him in order that this Gaia gets a fair chance to recover from us humans. Thank you!
NO CLIMATE EMERGENCY. Over the past 550 million years, the average global temperatures range from 8°c to 22°c, now 13°c. Earth can maintain climate homeostasis. Why the urgency to freeze and starve millions of people to death? The incessant call for human sacrifice by the climate death cult is a crime against humanity. It is a multi-trillion dollar robbery.
"NO CLIMATE EMERGENCY." With all due respect, you really don't know the science, including the fact that the big and rapid changes in CO2 levels and global temps caused many extinction events in Earth's past. Thousands of research studies and 40+ years of quite accurate climate models prove that our emissions caused ~98% of global warming since 1900. The scientific evidence is so strong that every nation on earth has signed off in agreement on this fact. This has nothing to do with natural cycles, and our emissions are currently warming the planet ~20 times warming than natural cycles warm it when coming out of an ice age. In turn, that rapid warming is harming people, societies, economies, other species, and the ecosystems our lives depend on in hundreds of ways. Take care.
In the US, record temperatures were set in the 1930's that still hold to this day. This was also the time of the Dust Bowl years. The world was going to burn up they said. 35 years later in the 60's-'70's scientists were saying watch out for the new ice age coming, as it was real cold. Climate change always happens as it depends on cycles inherent within the sun and solar system. Witness Pluto losing 25% of its atmosphere and ask what is causing that? It's not your SUV. Now pollution is a different matter, and has to be diminished. Climate Change as it is being pushed now is a hoax to enable certain people to make money selling and buying carbon credits etc. They are pushing fear and people fall for it. Farmers are bearing the brunt of this, as they are pushed off their lands, and their lands end up being in the pockets of the rich, who are pushing climate change. It is a planned wealth transfer, and nothing personal, just business.
sadly, you are wrong. Climate science is very clear - we are dangerously heating our planet .

Farmers are being hurt by the changing precipitation patterns and increasingly extreme drought and rainfall caused by man-made global warming, plus larger crop failures and livestock deaths from extreme heat waves. And when it's warmer, water evaporates faster so you have to irrigate more. Take care.
No consensus of mainstream climate scientists ever warned of an imminent new Ice Age in the 60s and 70s. Crackpots? Yes. Outliers? Yes. But the mainstream? Absolutely not. The vast majority of scientific papers published in the science journals of the day were warning of global WARMING, not an Ice Age. See MYTH OF THE 1970S GLOBAL COOLING SCIENTIFIC CONSENSUS in the Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society and put this very tired internet folk tale to bed once and for all. The Dust Bowl years were hot in the U.S. And? The U.S. represents two percent of the world's land masses and can't serve as a proxy for global climate. Many areas were COLDER then. Scientists also know the specific causes of the Dust Bowl and its unusual heatwaves. Google NASA GLOBAL TEMPERATURE and see where the 1930s rank on their graph. The natural "cycles" you refer to are known as Milnkovitch Cycles, and all three are in COOLING phases now. They have absolutely nothin to do with our current warming.
Earth’s atmosphere is Nitrogen (N2) - 78.084% ,Oxygen (O2) - 20.9476%, Argon (Ar) - 0.934%, Carbon dioxide (CO2) 0.0314%. 75% of the 0.0314% is from natural causes. That means 0.007825% is man made. That is less than 8/1000 of 1 percent.
non sense. you don't undersatnd science
You should all stand together on Capitol Hill of America and make them listen. You tried to tell them and they all said you were environmental activists drumming up fear. Well, it’s pretty clear you were correct now and they need to listen. Problem is the Uber rich want the whole world to melt down. They will be fine. They don’t care about the rest of us
Thirty years ago, James Lovelock (inventor of the electron capture detector and author of the Gaia Theory) said of global warming that a rise by 6-8°C was already "baked in the cake" and could no longer be avoided.
there's no point in living the rest of your life in anger and sadness because of the actions of others. just do what you can and thats it. Live your life and enjoy it while it lasts.
Part of the problem is Koch Industries and the millions they put into the US political system. And im disgusted that KZread keeps putting ads from Koch groups on videos like this. Americans for Prosperity for ex. Its awful .
Science has been manipulating the weather forcyears. Now add all the chemicals and you wonder why there is a problem. Here's a thought, stop . Let earth heal. Otherwise, you can forget having one.
we can no longer just let earth heal, we have to stop emitting greenhouse gases, and limit the land and rescource waste that is our current system of animal agriculture. Then, yes, nature is resilent, capable of powerful self healing.
@FacingFuture we need to get rid of greed and no I don't feel the earth needs more of mankinds experiments. People a t like they know best, none created anything but a mess. So no I don't think the earth needs more of the same. And yes I think the earth needs to be left alone for once
And who's fault is this? Egotistical narcistic wannabe gods is who.
I feel so bad for climate scientists, flat earthers and other crackpots that have reality so wrong! They need to go back to school.
we feel sorry for you and your denial of actual science
@@FacingFuture No. You feel high and mighty that you’re on the right side of the truth when it’s actually the wrong side.
Maybe everything will be OK
I suspect they will "solve" the problem by making most people poor 😑
Our despair guilt and fear can keep us from being inspired to see solutions, or to act at all.
