    All materials should be recycled. And once it’s been recycled, at the end of its life recycle it again again and again..... Cut down on packaging, this is purely marketing to attract people to the product in the first place. Standardize all products for example charging cables for all the different phone should be compatible. Make stuff that will last a lot longer , even if it cost more to purchase. In the long run it’s more cost-effective than replacing items every other year. Marketing has always been used to maximize profits at the expense of wastage pollution resource depletion , etc. I enjoyed the video thank you for posting.

    "There's every reason for not trusting those measurements..." Like with NASA's statistic on average global temperature. They quote it at 15 degrees C whereas the avg. temperature of the Sahara Desert (accounting for both daytime and nighttime temperature) is 13 degrees C. I ran a few back-of-the-envelope calculations myself on Earth's average temperature and it came out at -16 degrees C. If it's -16 C then that means Earth has the same average temperature as the Moon and therefore the specific chemistry of the atmosphere has no bearing on climate.

It's clueless and it's actually "unpleasant" to rail against it for its ignorance and incompetence because it would be the same as telling a cute kid who is rather "backward" that it's unusually thickwitted. Instead praise it for sticking paper stars on a sheet of paper and build its confidence. That's the more-pleasant modern way.

    The United Nations is behind the climate change crap - note the blue "climate change" sticker above - it tell us we're all going to perish lol - sea levels are not rising or falling - the world isn't getting hotter - all the dams in Australia didn't dry up by 2010 they overflowed, the wold is greening thanks to CO2 THE ONLY SOURCE OF CARBON FOR PLANTS - when CO2 was 200ppm all cities were covered in SMOG - then Eugene Houdry invented the catalytic convert for cars turning Carbon Monoxide poison into CO2 the ONLY source of CARBON for plants to grow their structures. CO2 has doubled to 400ppm that's miniscule but quite sufficient to green the planet - the SMOG disappeared thnx to CO2....The UN is our number one enemy. Look at who sits around the table at the UN - The worlds worst criminals in control for their own enrichment.

They way my high school teacher explained how the plants grow in planet earth is that eith regards of photo synthesus, the exchange of carbon and oxygen when the keaves if the plants want 6o get food from the environment. The plants needs carbon or rarher CO2.without it nothing grows sir.

    Not only is it impossible to remove all CO2, it is impossible for us to get back to the natural levels of the past 2,000 years. It's not about plants, some of which are doing better, it's about the obvious warming from the obvious primary forcing.

    Since you mentioned that there is no way to test for pesticides. Then why are you saying that it’s biased if you can’t measure it you can’t measure it. Therefore, it is not a bias that it wasn’t measured because you cannot measure them. This seems to make you a little biased against organics. I was sorry to hear that because I do enjoy learning things, but you have a logic error that you need to correct PS thank you explaining the difference in how they rate or measure pesticides. I will no longer worry about the dozen.

    The level of scientific (il)literacy in this conversation is best summed up at 8:27. Saying that temperature not increasing in a 1:1 fashion with a 40% increase in CO2 concentration would somehow imply that the understanding of the climate system is wrong has got me straight up bamboozled. I damn near gasped out loud upon hearing that shit. The bar is truly set low
