1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:02,310 Hey everyone. So, a topic I get asked to 2 00:00:02,310 --> 00:00:02,320 Hey everyone. So, a topic I get asked to 3 00:00:02,320 --> 00:00:04,309 Hey everyone. So, a topic I get asked to cover quite a lot is climate change 4 00:00:04,309 --> 00:00:04,319 cover quite a lot is climate change 5 00:00:04,319 --> 00:00:06,710 cover quite a lot is climate change denial. I have made one very meaty video 6 00:00:06,710 --> 00:00:06,720 denial. I have made one very meaty video 7 00:00:06,720 --> 00:00:08,870 denial. I have made one very meaty video on this topic, but like most areas of 8 00:00:08,870 --> 00:00:08,880 on this topic, but like most areas of 9 00:00:08,880 --> 00:00:10,709 on this topic, but like most areas of science denial, one video is never 10 00:00:10,709 --> 00:00:10,719 science denial, one video is never 11 00:00:10,719 --> 00:00:12,390 science denial, one video is never enough. So, let's continue to discuss 12 00:00:12,390 --> 00:00:12,400 enough. So, let's continue to discuss 13 00:00:12,400 --> 00:00:14,870 enough. So, let's continue to discuss this. Now, as I said, I have done one 14 00:00:14,870 --> 00:00:14,880 this. Now, as I said, I have done one 15 00:00:14,880 --> 00:00:16,630 this. Now, as I said, I have done one video on this topic, and that is my 16 00:00:16,630 --> 00:00:16,640 video on this topic, and that is my 17 00:00:16,640 --> 00:00:18,710 video on this topic, and that is my video debunking Matt Ridley. He's an 18 00:00:18,710 --> 00:00:18,720 video debunking Matt Ridley. He's an 19 00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:20,870 video debunking Matt Ridley.

Hence 22 00:00:23,109 --> 00:00:23,119 fossil fuels, among other things. Hence 23 00:00:23,119 --> 00:00:25,029 fossil fuels, among other things. Hence his devotion to spreading propaganda, 24 00:00:25,029 --> 00:00:25,039 his devotion to spreading propaganda, 25 00:00:25,039 --> 00:00:26,950 his devotion to spreading propaganda, minimizing the dangers of anthropogenic 26 00:00:26,950 --> 00:00:26,960 minimizing the dangers of anthropogenic 27 00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:28,470 minimizing the dangers of anthropogenic climate change, and denigrating 28 00:00:28,470 --> 00:00:28,480 climate change, and denigrating 29 00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:30,630 climate change, and denigrating alternative energy sources. He also made 30 00:00:30,630 --> 00:00:30,640 alternative energy sources. He also made 31 00:00:30,640 --> 00:00:33,030 alternative energy sources.

Yeah, I I I think there's probably a lot of people going I know that voice 188 00:03:21,430 --> 00:03:21,440 a lot of people going I know that voice 189 00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:23,910 a lot of people going I know that voice but that's a new face. 190 00:03:23,910 --> 00:03:23,920 but that's a new face. 191 00:03:23,920 --> 00:03:25,830 but that's a new face. >> So I've had that before. Yeah, 192 00:03:25,830 --> 00:03:25,840 >> So I've had that before. Yeah, 193 00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:27,670 >> So I've had that before. Yeah, definitely. So, okay. So, let's talk 194 00:03:27,670 --> 00:03:27,680 definitely. So, okay. So, let's talk 195 00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:29,589 definitely. So, okay. So, let's talk about climate change denial. So, this is 196 00:03:29,589 --> 00:03:29,599 about climate change denial. So, this is 197 00:03:29,599 --> 00:03:31,270 about climate change denial. So, this is not new at all. Like, climate change 198 00:03:31,270 --> 00:03:31,280 not new at all. Like, climate change 199 00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:33,190 not new at all. Like, climate change denial is decades. I mean, it's been 200 00:03:33,190 --> 00:03:33,200 denial is decades. I mean, it's been 201 00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:35,030 denial is decades. I mean, it's been around. It's older than me probably. I 202 00:03:35,030 --> 00:03:35,040 around. It's older than me probably. I 203 00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:36,390 around. It's older than me probably. I mean, it's this is something that's been 204 00:03:36,390 --> 00:03:36,400 mean, it's this is something that's been 205 00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:39,270 mean, it's this is something that's been around, but I think that probably who 206 00:03:39,270 --> 00:03:39,280 around, but I think that probably who 207 00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:41,910 around, but I think that probably who has been behind these various narratives 208 00:03:41,910 --> 00:03:41,920 has been behind these various narratives 209 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:44,390 has been behind these various narratives has probably changed hands. You've been 210 00:03:44,390 --> 00:03:44,400 has probably changed hands. You've been 211 00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:46,309 has probably changed hands. You've been go you've been at this for a long time. 212 00:03:46,309 --> 00:03:46,319 go you've been at this for a long time. 213 00:03:46,319 --> 00:03:47,509 go you've been at this for a long time. What have you noticed about the way 214 00:03:47,509 --> 00:03:47,519 What have you noticed about the way 215 00:03:47,519 --> 00:03:49,350 What have you noticed about the way climate change denial has evolved over 216 00:03:49,350 --> 00:03:49,360 climate change denial has evolved over 217 00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:51,350 climate change denial has evolved over the decades? Who's behind it? How has 218 00:03:51,350 --> 00:03:51,360 the decades? Who's behind it? How has 219 00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:52,869 the decades? Who's behind it? How has the narrative changed? Has he become 220 00:03:52,869 --> 00:03:52,879 the narrative changed? Has he become 221 00:03:52,879 --> 00:03:55,190 the narrative changed? Has he become more sophisticated, less sophisticated? 222 00:03:55,190 --> 00:03:55,200 more sophisticated, less sophisticated? 223 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:56,390 more sophisticated, less sophisticated? What do you think? 224 00:03:56,390 --> 00:03:56,400 What do you think? 225 00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:58,630 What do you think? >> Yeah, it's interesting because um you 226 00:03:58,630 --> 00:03:58,640 >> Yeah, it's interesting because um you 227 00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:00,149 >> Yeah, it's interesting because um you think it's been around for a long time, 228 00:04:00,149 --> 00:04:00,159 think it's been around for a long time, 229 00:04:00,159 --> 00:04:02,949 think it's been around for a long time, but uh I mean this the the the 230 00:04:02,949 --> 00:04:02,959 but uh I mean this the the the 231 00:04:02,959 --> 00:04:05,270 but uh I mean this the the the hypothesis has been around that carbon 232 00:04:05,270 --> 00:04:05,280 hypothesis has been around that carbon 233 00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:07,110 hypothesis has been around that carbon dioxide affects global temperature 234 00:04:07,110 --> 00:04:07,120 dioxide affects global temperature 235 00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:10,229 dioxide affects global temperature that's been around since the 1890s and 236 00:04:10,229 --> 00:04:10,239 that's been around since the 1890s and 237 00:04:10,239 --> 00:04:13,030 that's been around since the 1890s and has been confirmed uh I mean the theory 238 00:04:13,030 --> 00:04:13,040 has been confirmed uh I mean the theory 239 00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:15,670 has been confirmed uh I mean the theory goes back to the 1950s. It's never been 240 00:04:15,670 --> 00:04:15,680 goes back to the 1950s. It's never been 241 00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:17,270 goes back to the 1950s. It's never been controversial. This is the interesting 242 00:04:17,270 --> 00:04:17,280 controversial. This is the interesting 243 00:04:17,280 --> 00:04:19,349 controversial. This is the interesting thing. Um when I started reporting on 244 00:04:19,349 --> 00:04:19,359 thing. Um when I started reporting on 245 00:04:19,359 --> 00:04:22,550 thing. Um when I started reporting on this in the late 80s, early 90s, it was 246 00:04:22,550 --> 00:04:22,560 this in the late 80s, early 90s, it was 247 00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:24,230 this in the late 80s, early 90s, it was not a controversial thing. This was a 248 00:04:24,230 --> 00:04:24,240 not a controversial thing. This was a 249 00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:27,430 not a controversial thing. This was a piece of science just like any other. Um 250 00:04:27,430 --> 00:04:27,440 piece of science just like any other. Um 251 00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:31,270 piece of science just like any other. Um and I I remember I went to the Kyoto uh 252 00:04:31,270 --> 00:04:31,280 and I I remember I went to the Kyoto uh 253 00:04:31,280 --> 00:04:33,990 and I I remember I went to the Kyoto uh conference in 1997. This is the famous 254 00:04:33,990 --> 00:04:34,000 conference in 1997. This is the famous 255 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:35,830 conference in 1997. This is the famous Kyoto protocol that was signed which is 256 00:04:35,830 --> 00:04:35,840 Kyoto protocol that was signed which is 257 00:04:35,840 --> 00:04:37,990 Kyoto protocol that was signed which is the first attempt to reduce carbon 258 00:04:37,990 --> 00:04:38,000 the first attempt to reduce carbon 259 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:40,230 the first attempt to reduce carbon emissions. And um there was no 260 00:04:40,230 --> 00:04:40,240 emissions. And um there was no 261 00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:43,189 emissions. And um there was no anti-science lobby there except there 262 00:04:43,189 --> 00:04:43,199 anti-science lobby there except there 263 00:04:43,199 --> 00:04:45,590 anti-science lobby there except there were about two or three desks inhabited 264 00:04:45,590 --> 00:04:45,600 were about two or three desks inhabited 265 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:47,749 were about two or three desks inhabited by fossil fuel industry. 266 00:04:47,749 --> 00:04:47,759 by fossil fuel industry. 267 00:04:47,759 --> 00:04:49,909 by fossil fuel industry. >> Um and they were there to put the case 268 00:04:49,909 --> 00:04:49,919 >> Um and they were there to put the case 269 00:04:49,919 --> 00:04:53,430 >> Um and they were there to put the case of the oil, gas and coal to say no, we 270 00:04:53,430 --> 00:04:53,440 of the oil, gas and coal to say no, we 271 00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:54,790 of the oil, gas and coal to say no, we don't think this is happening. Actually, 272 00:04:54,790 --> 00:04:54,800 don't think this is happening. Actually, 273 00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:56,310 don't think this is happening. Actually, despite the fact that Exxon of course 274 00:04:56,310 --> 00:04:56,320 despite the fact that Exxon of course 275 00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:57,990 despite the fact that Exxon of course had a secret report that said the 276 00:04:57,990 --> 00:04:58,000 had a secret report that said the 277 00:04:58,000 --> 00:04:59,990 had a secret report that said the science is exactly right on this, but 278 00:04:59,990 --> 00:05:00,000 science is exactly right on this, but 279 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:01,990 science is exactly right on this, but they they hid that. But they their 280 00:05:01,990 --> 00:05:02,000 they they hid that. But they their 281 00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:04,790 they they hid that. But they their public face was to say uh we don't think 282 00:05:04,790 --> 00:05:04,800 public face was to say uh we don't think 283 00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:07,350 public face was to say uh we don't think this is going to be a problem. And um I 284 00:05:07,350 --> 00:05:07,360 this is going to be a problem. And um I 285 00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:09,110 this is going to be a problem. And um I remember there was just very little 286 00:05:09,110 --> 00:05:09,120 remember there was just very little 287 00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:11,350 remember there was just very little interest in in in it at the time and I I 288 00:05:11,350 --> 00:05:11,360 interest in in in it at the time and I I 289 00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:12,950 interest in in in it at the time and I I went over to them and chatted with them 290 00:05:12,950 --> 00:05:12,960 went over to them and chatted with them 291 00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:14,710 went over to them and chatted with them and joked that you guys are looking 292 00:05:14,710 --> 00:05:14,720 and joked that you guys are looking 293 00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:16,950 and joked that you guys are looking rather lonely over here. Now you fast 294 00:05:16,950 --> 00:05:16,960 rather lonely over here. Now you fast 295 00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:19,670 rather lonely over here. Now you fast forward to today it's a huge industry 296 00:05:19,670 --> 00:05:19,680 forward to today it's a huge industry 297 00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:21,749 forward to today it's a huge industry now isn't it? And I think uh the 298 00:05:21,749 --> 00:05:21,759 now isn't it? And I think uh the 299 00:05:21,759 --> 00:05:23,029 now isn't it? And I think uh the arguments have definitely changed 300 00:05:23,029 --> 00:05:23,039 arguments have definitely changed 301 00:05:23,039 --> 00:05:25,749 arguments have definitely changed because in the '9s the best they could 302 00:05:25,749 --> 00:05:25,759 because in the '9s the best they could 303 00:05:25,759 --> 00:05:27,590 because in the '9s the best they could come up with is well we're not seeing 304 00:05:27,590 --> 00:05:27,600 come up with is well we're not seeing 305 00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:29,590 come up with is well we're not seeing any warming at the moment so probably 306 00:05:29,590 --> 00:05:29,600 any warming at the moment so probably 307 00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:32,070 any warming at the moment so probably the scientists have got this wrong. when 308 00:05:32,070 --> 00:05:32,080 the scientists have got this wrong. when 309 00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:34,469 the scientists have got this wrong. when there was warming the argument changed 310 00:05:34,469 --> 00:05:34,479 there was warming the argument changed 311 00:05:34,479 --> 00:05:37,510 there was warming the argument changed to okay it must be the sun uh and then 312 00:05:37,510 --> 00:05:37,520 to okay it must be the sun uh and then 313 00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:39,350 to okay it must be the sun uh and then when it was clear that the sun was not 314 00:05:39,350 --> 00:05:39,360 when it was clear that the sun was not 315 00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:41,350 when it was clear that the sun was not responsible because we can measure solar 316 00:05:41,350 --> 00:05:41,360 responsible because we can measure solar 317 00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:45,670 responsible because we can measure solar output um then that changed to um okay 318 00:05:45,670 --> 00:05:45,680 output um then that changed to um okay 319 00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:47,990 output um then that changed to um okay it might be carbon dioxide but the earth 320 00:05:47,990 --> 00:05:48,000 it might be carbon dioxide but the earth 321 00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,230 it might be carbon dioxide but the earth has this wonderful self-regulating 322 00:05:50,230 --> 00:05:50,240 has this wonderful self-regulating 323 00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:52,230 has this wonderful self-regulating mechanism the clouds are going to 324 00:05:52,230 --> 00:05:52,240 mechanism the clouds are going to 325 00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:53,830 mechanism the clouds are going to increase and it's going to cool us down 326 00:05:53,830 --> 00:05:53,840 increase and it's going to cool us down 327 00:05:53,840 --> 00:05:54,710 increase and it's going to cool us down again 328 00:05:54,710 --> 00:05:54,720 again 329 00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:56,230 again >> and when that was clear that global 330 00:05:56,230 --> 00:05:56,240 >> and when that was clear that global 331 00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:58,230 >> and when that was clear that global warming was still continuing every 332 00:05:58,230 --> 00:05:58,240 warming was still continuing every 333 00:05:58,240 --> 00:05:59,749 warming was still continuing every effort they've made to say well it 334 00:05:59,749 --> 00:05:59,759 effort they've made to say well it 335 00:05:59,759 --> 00:06:01,990 effort they've made to say well it stopped now or it's going to stop and 336 00:06:01,990 --> 00:06:02,000 stopped now or it's going to stop and 337 00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:03,830 stopped now or it's going to stop and those have been overturned by events 338 00:06:03,830 --> 00:06:03,840 those have been overturned by events 339 00:06:03,840 --> 00:06:06,870 those have been overturned by events that the warming has continued and um 340 00:06:06,870 --> 00:06:06,880 that the warming has continued and um 341 00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:09,590 that the warming has continued and um then we began to get okay there's going 342 00:06:09,590 --> 00:06:09,600 then we began to get okay there's going 343 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:11,350 then we began to get okay there's going to be more carbon dioxide but it's a 344 00:06:11,350 --> 00:06:11,360 to be more carbon dioxide but it's a 345 00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:14,390 to be more carbon dioxide but it's a good thing right and warmer world is a 346 00:06:14,390 --> 00:06:14,400 good thing right and warmer world is a 347 00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:16,950 good thing right and warmer world is a good thing greener warmer is good for us 348 00:06:16,950 --> 00:06:16,960 good thing greener warmer is good for us 349 00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:19,189 good thing greener warmer is good for us when that's now becoming clear that 350 00:06:19,189 --> 00:06:19,199 when that's now becoming clear that 351 00:06:19,199 --> 00:06:20,790 when that's now becoming clear that that's not the case and I can give a 352 00:06:20,790 --> 00:06:20,800 that's not the case and I can give a 353 00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:22,469 that's not the case and I can give a number of reasons why but won't go into 354 00:06:22,469 --> 00:06:22,479 number of reasons why but won't go into 355 00:06:22,479 --> 00:06:24,550 number of reasons why but won't go into those now but it's becoming clear that 356 00:06:24,550 --> 00:06:24,560 those now but it's becoming clear that 357 00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:26,070 those now but it's becoming clear that that's not the case and they've shifted 358 00:06:26,070 --> 00:06:26,080 that's not the case and they've shifted 359 00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:28,230 that's not the case and they've shifted the argument now to well we can adapt 360 00:06:28,230 --> 00:06:28,240 the argument now to well we can adapt 361 00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:30,550 the argument now to well we can adapt and this seems to be the latest one and 362 00:06:30,550 --> 00:06:30,560 and this seems to be the latest one and 363 00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:32,550 and this seems to be the latest one and My bet, Dave, is the next one down the 364 00:06:32,550 --> 00:06:32,560 My bet, Dave, is the next one down the 365 00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:35,350 My bet, Dave, is the next one down the road is going to be uh well, yeah, we 366 00:06:35,350 --> 00:06:35,360 road is going to be uh well, yeah, we 367 00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:36,790 road is going to be uh well, yeah, we should have done something 40 years ago. 368 00:06:36,790 --> 00:06:36,800 should have done something 40 years ago. 369 00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:37,510 should have done something 40 years ago. It's too late now. 370 00:06:37,510 --> 00:06:37,520 It's too late now. 371 00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:38,710 It's too late now. >> Too late. Yeah. 372 00:06:38,710 --> 00:06:38,720 >> Too late. Yeah. 373 00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:41,590 >> Too late. Yeah. >> And the thing is, you can't stop the 374 00:06:41,590 --> 00:06:41,600 >> And the thing is, you can't stop the 375 00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:43,590 >> And the thing is, you can't stop the progress of science. Science will always 376 00:06:43,590 --> 00:06:43,600 progress of science. Science will always 377 00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:46,070 progress of science. Science will always advance. Yeah. And and our understanding 378 00:06:46,070 --> 00:06:46,080 advance. Yeah. And and our understanding 379 00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:48,230 advance. Yeah. And and our understanding of this has not changed and and it's 380 00:06:48,230 --> 00:06:48,240 of this has not changed and and it's 381 00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:51,110 of this has not changed and and it's advanced, confirmed what was said in the 382 00:06:51,110 --> 00:06:51,120 advanced, confirmed what was said in the 383 00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:54,150 advanced, confirmed what was said in the 1950s, ever since. They can't stop that. 384 00:06:54,150 --> 00:06:54,160 1950s, ever since. They can't stop that. 385 00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:56,070 1950s, ever since. They can't stop that. The best they can do is to put 386 00:06:56,070 --> 00:06:56,080 The best they can do is to put 387 00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:58,309 The best they can do is to put roadblocks in the way to try to slow it 388 00:06:58,309 --> 00:06:58,319 roadblocks in the way to try to slow it 389 00:06:58,319 --> 00:07:00,629 roadblocks in the way to try to slow it down to create doubt. And I think that's 390 00:07:00,629 --> 00:07:00,639 down to create doubt. And I think that's 391 00:07:00,639 --> 00:07:02,469 down to create doubt. And I think that's what uh really has been happening. 392 00:07:02,469 --> 00:07:02,479 what uh really has been happening. 393 00:07:02,479 --> 00:07:04,230 what uh really has been happening. >> Yeah. Yeah. The evolution is clearly 394 00:07:04,230 --> 00:07:04,240 >> Yeah. Yeah. The evolution is clearly 395 00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:06,710 >> Yeah. Yeah. The evolution is clearly from it's not happening to okay, it is 396 00:07:06,710 --> 00:07:06,720 from it's not happening to okay, it is 397 00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:08,950 from it's not happening to okay, it is happening but it's good to oh it is 398 00:07:08,950 --> 00:07:08,960 happening but it's good to oh it is 399 00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:10,150 happening but it's good to oh it is happening but it's not as bad as you 400 00:07:10,150 --> 00:07:10,160 happening but it's not as bad as you 401 00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:14,230 happening but it's not as bad as you think to oh well who cares. It's like 402 00:07:14,230 --> 00:07:14,240 think to oh well who cares. It's like 403 00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:16,629 think to oh well who cares. It's like >> that's kind of it and all stops in 404 00:07:16,629 --> 00:07:16,639 >> that's kind of it and all stops in 405 00:07:16,639 --> 00:07:17,990 >> that's kind of it and all stops in between because you'll still get people 406 00:07:17,990 --> 00:07:18,000 between because you'll still get people 407 00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:19,670 between because you'll still get people who think it's the sun. You'll still get 408 00:07:19,670 --> 00:07:19,680 who think it's the sun. You'll still get 409 00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:21,749 who think it's the sun. You'll still get people who say it's not warming. 410 00:07:21,749 --> 00:07:21,759 people who say it's not warming. 411 00:07:21,759 --> 00:07:24,870 people who say it's not warming. >> There's so much disagreement among the 412 00:07:24,870 --> 00:07:24,880 >> There's so much disagreement among the 413 00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:27,670 >> There's so much disagreement among the critics of climate science about what 414 00:07:27,670 --> 00:07:27,680 critics of climate science about what 415 00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:29,670 critics of climate science about what you know argument to use. which should 416 00:07:29,670 --> 00:07:29,680 you know argument to use. which should 417 00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:31,510 you know argument to use. which should be an enormous red flag, right? Because 418 00:07:31,510 --> 00:07:31,520 be an enormous red flag, right? Because 419 00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:33,189 be an enormous red flag, right? Because the the climate scientists are in 420 00:07:33,189 --> 00:07:33,199 the the climate scientists are in 421 00:07:33,199 --> 00:07:35,350 the the climate scientists are in complete agreement with the data and and 422 00:07:35,350 --> 00:07:35,360 complete agreement with the data and and 423 00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:37,029 complete agreement with the data and and the predictions and just like look, this 424 00:07:37,029 --> 00:07:37,039 the predictions and just like look, this 425 00:07:37,039 --> 00:07:39,510 the predictions and just like look, this is, you know, we've had 1.5 degrees of 426 00:07:39,510 --> 00:07:39,520 is, you know, we've had 1.5 degrees of 427 00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:41,189 is, you know, we've had 1.5 degrees of warming since pre-industrial, another 428 00:07:41,189 --> 00:07:41,199 warming since pre-industrial, another 429 00:07:41,199 --> 00:07:42,950 warming since pre-industrial, another half a degree, and we're screwed, right? 430 00:07:42,950 --> 00:07:42,960 half a degree, and we're screwed, right? 431 00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:44,550 half a degree, and we're screwed, right? And it's going to happen in this amount 432 00:07:44,550 --> 00:07:44,560 And it's going to happen in this amount 433 00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:46,150 And it's going to happen in this amount of time, probably 20 years or whatever 434 00:07:46,150 --> 00:07:46,160 of time, probably 20 years or whatever 435 00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:48,950 of time, probably 20 years or whatever it is. And uh yeah, I've become familiar 436 00:07:48,950 --> 00:07:48,960 it is. And uh yeah, I've become familiar 437 00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:50,469 it is. And uh yeah, I've become familiar with a lot of this through debunking 438 00:07:50,469 --> 00:07:50,479 with a lot of this through debunking 439 00:07:50,479 --> 00:07:51,749 with a lot of this through debunking Matt Ridley, who I'm sure you were 440 00:07:51,749 --> 00:07:51,759 Matt Ridley, who I'm sure you were 441 00:07:51,759 --> 00:07:53,270 Matt Ridley, who I'm sure you were familiar with, this whole the 442 00:07:53,270 --> 00:07:53,280 familiar with, this whole the 443 00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:57,670 familiar with, this whole the lukewarmism uh uh thing.

So, why do you what do you why do you care that the climate is changing? 482 00:08:33,750 --> 00:08:33,760 you care that the climate is changing? 483 00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:35,190 you care that the climate is changing? It's supposed to do that. 484 00:08:35,190 --> 00:08:35,200 It's supposed to do that. 485 00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:37,829 It's supposed to do that. >> What do you say to that? 486 00:08:37,829 --> 00:08:37,839 >> What do you say to that? 487 00:08:37,839 --> 00:08:39,509 >> What do you say to that? >> That's one of the first questions I hear 488 00:08:39,509 --> 00:08:39,519 >> That's one of the first questions I hear 489 00:08:39,519 --> 00:08:41,029 >> That's one of the first questions I hear and and the reason I love it is my 490 00:08:41,029 --> 00:08:41,039 and and the reason I love it is my 491 00:08:41,039 --> 00:08:42,630 and and the reason I love it is my background is in geology. I was actually 492 00:08:42,630 --> 00:08:42,640 background is in geology. I was actually 493 00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:44,949 background is in geology. I was actually a geologist for a couple of years before 494 00:08:44,949 --> 00:08:44,959 a geologist for a couple of years before 495 00:08:44,959 --> 00:08:46,310 a geologist for a couple of years before becoming a journalist. So, I had a 496 00:08:46,310 --> 00:08:46,320 becoming a journalist. So, I had a 497 00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:48,630 becoming a journalist. So, I had a degree in geology. Um, let let me just 498 00:08:48,630 --> 00:08:48,640 degree in geology. Um, let let me just 499 00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:50,710 degree in geology. Um, let let me just start by saying you have to understand 500 00:08:50,710 --> 00:08:50,720 start by saying you have to understand 501 00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:52,389 start by saying you have to understand the person that's making these 502 00:08:52,389 --> 00:08:52,399 the person that's making these 503 00:08:52,399 --> 00:08:54,070 the person that's making these arguments. And I'm sure we're all 504 00:08:54,070 --> 00:08:54,080 arguments. And I'm sure we're all 505 00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:56,310 arguments. And I'm sure we're all familiar with the crazy uncle at 506 00:08:56,310 --> 00:08:56,320 familiar with the crazy uncle at 507 00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:58,710 familiar with the crazy uncle at Thanksgiving who then spouts what he's 508 00:08:58,710 --> 00:08:58,720 Thanksgiving who then spouts what he's 509 00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:00,949 Thanksgiving who then spouts what he's learned over the last year about uh 510 00:09:00,949 --> 00:09:00,959 learned over the last year about uh 511 00:09:00,959 --> 00:09:02,949 learned over the last year about uh climate change on the internet and and 512 00:09:02,949 --> 00:09:02,959 climate change on the internet and and 513 00:09:02,959 --> 00:09:04,630 climate change on the internet and and someone at work who's the conspiracy 514 00:09:04,630 --> 00:09:04,640 someone at work who's the conspiracy 515 00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:06,870 someone at work who's the conspiracy theorist. They'll always try and corner 516 00:09:06,870 --> 00:09:06,880 theorist. They'll always try and corner 517 00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:08,710 theorist. They'll always try and corner you with the latest ideas and latest 518 00:09:08,710 --> 00:09:08,720 you with the latest ideas and latest 519 00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:10,949 you with the latest ideas and latest theories. It's very tempting to just 520 00:09:10,949 --> 00:09:10,959 theories. It's very tempting to just 521 00:09:10,959 --> 00:09:13,509 theories. It's very tempting to just lecture them and tell them, you know, 522 00:09:13,509 --> 00:09:13,519 lecture them and tell them, you know, 523 00:09:13,519 --> 00:09:16,070 lecture them and tell them, you know, no, that's not the case. Blah blah. 524 00:09:16,070 --> 00:09:16,080 no, that's not the case. Blah blah. 525 00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:18,230 no, that's not the case. Blah blah. >> Remember that these guys think they are 526 00:09:18,230 --> 00:09:18,240 >> Remember that these guys think they are 527 00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:20,230 >> Remember that these guys think they are absolutely brilliant. It's not just that 528 00:09:20,230 --> 00:09:20,240 absolutely brilliant. It's not just that 529 00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:22,389 absolutely brilliant. It's not just that they are as smart as the scientists. 530 00:09:22,389 --> 00:09:22,399 they are as smart as the scientists. 531 00:09:22,399 --> 00:09:24,070 they are as smart as the scientists. They never studied science. They never 532 00:09:24,070 --> 00:09:24,080 They never studied science. They never 533 00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:26,230 They never studied science. They never went to university to do science. They 534 00:09:26,230 --> 00:09:26,240 went to university to do science. They 535 00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:28,230 went to university to do science. They are beyond that. They are so much 536 00:09:28,230 --> 00:09:28,240 are beyond that. They are so much 537 00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:29,590 are beyond that. They are so much smarter than scientists. They've 538 00:09:29,590 --> 00:09:29,600 smarter than scientists. They've 539 00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:32,630 smarter than scientists. They've actually leapfrogged leaprogged over the 540 00:09:32,630 --> 00:09:32,640 actually leapfrogged leaprogged over the 541 00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:34,870 actually leapfrogged leaprogged over the university system and now they're far 542 00:09:34,870 --> 00:09:34,880 university system and now they're far 543 00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:36,949 university system and now they're far advanced in their understanding and left 544 00:09:36,949 --> 00:09:36,959 advanced in their understanding and left 545 00:09:36,959 --> 00:09:39,190 advanced in their understanding and left all those book learners behind them. So 546 00:09:39,190 --> 00:09:39,200 all those book learners behind them. So 547 00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:40,790 all those book learners behind them. So you need to play to their strengths 548 00:09:40,790 --> 00:09:40,800 you need to play to their strengths 549 00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:42,870 you need to play to their strengths because uh to to your strengths and 550 00:09:42,870 --> 00:09:42,880 because uh to to your strengths and 551 00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:45,509 because uh to to your strengths and their and make that their weakness. And 552 00:09:45,509 --> 00:09:45,519 their and make that their weakness. And 553 00:09:45,519 --> 00:09:48,470 their and make that their weakness. And I when I was a um interviewing 554 00:09:48,470 --> 00:09:48,480 I when I was a um interviewing 555 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:50,389 I when I was a um interviewing government officials or politicians and 556 00:09:50,389 --> 00:09:50,399 government officials or politicians and 557 00:09:50,399 --> 00:09:52,150 government officials or politicians and so on as a journalist, it's very 558 00:09:52,150 --> 00:09:52,160 so on as a journalist, it's very 559 00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:54,070 so on as a journalist, it's very tempting to go in pretending you know it 560 00:09:54,070 --> 00:09:54,080 tempting to go in pretending you know it 561 00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:56,470 tempting to go in pretending you know it all, but that puts them on their guard. 562 00:09:56,470 --> 00:09:56,480 all, but that puts them on their guard. 563 00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:58,630 all, but that puts them on their guard. >> What you have to do is what I call the 564 00:09:58,630 --> 00:09:58,640 >> What you have to do is what I call the 565 00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:00,150 >> What you have to do is what I call the Columbbo principle.

And Columbbo was this shabby 572 00:10:09,269 --> 00:10:09,279 And Columbbo was this shabby 573 00:10:09,279 --> 00:10:11,190 And Columbbo was this shabby um detective who looked completely 574 00:10:11,190 --> 00:10:11,200 um detective who looked completely 575 00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:12,550 um detective who looked completely stupid and looked like he didn't know 576 00:10:12,550 --> 00:10:12,560 stupid and looked like he didn't know 577 00:10:12,560 --> 00:10:13,829 stupid and looked like he didn't know what he was doing. Yeah. 578 00:10:13,829 --> 00:10:13,839 what he was doing. Yeah. 579 00:10:13,839 --> 00:10:16,550 what he was doing.

They're not listening to that. Um 634 00:11:07,110 --> 00:11:07,120 that. They're not listening to that. Um 635 00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:08,790 that. They're not listening to that. Um it confirms in their mind that you're an 636 00:11:08,790 --> 00:11:08,800 it confirms in their mind that you're an 637 00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:11,030 it confirms in their mind that you're an idiot. What you need to do is treat them 638 00:11:11,030 --> 00:11:11,040 idiot. What you need to do is treat them 639 00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:13,110 idiot. What you need to do is treat them like the guru they think they are and 640 00:11:13,110 --> 00:11:13,120 like the guru they think they are and 641 00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:14,310 like the guru they think they are and say, "Yeah, that's interesting. 642 00:11:14,310 --> 00:11:14,320 say, "Yeah, that's interesting. 643 00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:15,750 say, "Yeah, that's interesting. Actually, the climate does always 644 00:11:15,750 --> 00:11:15,760 Actually, the climate does always 645 00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:18,470 Actually, the climate does always change."

So why is that? And they will start 650 00:11:23,590 --> 00:11:23,600 it? So why is that? And they will start 651 00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:25,190 it? So why is that? And they will start then you've got to feed them a bit of 652 00:11:25,190 --> 00:11:25,200 then you've got to feed them a bit of 653 00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:27,910 then you've got to feed them a bit of rope. Let them come out with all their 654 00:11:27,910 --> 00:11:27,920 rope. Let them come out with all their 655 00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:30,069 rope. Let them come out with all their theories about why this happens. 656 00:11:30,069 --> 00:11:30,079 theories about why this happens. 657 00:11:30,079 --> 00:11:32,470 theories about why this happens. >> But familiarize yourself with the 658 00:11:32,470 --> 00:11:32,480 >> But familiarize yourself with the 659 00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:35,350 >> But familiarize yourself with the reasons. And now I'm just going to very 660 00:11:35,350 --> 00:11:35,360 reasons. And now I'm just going to very 661 00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:38,150 reasons. And now I'm just going to very briefly um give my geological spiel here 662 00:11:38,150 --> 00:11:38,160 briefly um give my geological spiel here 663 00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:40,069 briefly um give my geological spiel here because it's important that people do 664 00:11:40,069 --> 00:11:40,079 because it's important that people do 665 00:11:40,079 --> 00:11:41,750 because it's important that people do understand the reasons so that they can 666 00:11:41,750 --> 00:11:41,760 understand the reasons so that they can 667 00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:45,590 understand the reasons so that they can use this as as ammunition. The the 668 00:11:45,590 --> 00:11:45,600 use this as as ammunition. The the 669 00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:47,350 use this as as ammunition. The the history of the earth over the last 500 670 00:11:47,350 --> 00:11:47,360 history of the earth over the last 500 671 00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:49,110 history of the earth over the last 500 million years the phenoroic which was 672 00:11:49,110 --> 00:11:49,120 million years the phenoroic which was 673 00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:51,350 million years the phenoroic which was when we've got a basically good uh 674 00:11:51,350 --> 00:11:51,360 when we've got a basically good uh 675 00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:53,590 when we've got a basically good uh geological record. Prior to that it's a 676 00:11:53,590 --> 00:11:53,600 geological record. Prior to that it's a 677 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:57,430 geological record. Prior to that it's a bit more cloudy. Um, we've seen uh 678 00:11:57,430 --> 00:11:57,440 bit more cloudy. Um, we've seen uh 679 00:11:57,440 --> 00:12:01,590 bit more cloudy. Um, we've seen uh carbon dioxide levels uh from the uh 680 00:12:01,590 --> 00:12:01,600 carbon dioxide levels uh from the uh 681 00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:04,790 carbon dioxide levels uh from the uh Cambrian uh fall over the last 500 682 00:12:04,790 --> 00:12:04,800 Cambrian uh fall over the last 500 683 00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:08,550 Cambrian uh fall over the last 500 million years. And they will always say 684 00:12:08,550 --> 00:12:08,560 million years. And they will always say 685 00:12:08,560 --> 00:12:10,629 million years. And they will always say uh it's the sun that does it or it's 686 00:12:10,629 --> 00:12:10,639 uh it's the sun that does it or it's 687 00:12:10,639 --> 00:12:12,949 uh it's the sun that does it or it's galactic rays that that are causing it. 688 00:12:12,949 --> 00:12:12,959 galactic rays that that are causing it. 689 00:12:12,959 --> 00:12:15,509 galactic rays that that are causing it. They won't blame carbon dioxide. It's 690 00:12:15,509 --> 00:12:15,519 They won't blame carbon dioxide. It's 691 00:12:15,519 --> 00:12:17,509 They won't blame carbon dioxide. It's what I call the ABCD. Anything but 692 00:12:17,509 --> 00:12:17,519 what I call the ABCD. Anything but 693 00:12:17,519 --> 00:12:19,110 what I call the ABCD. Anything but carbon dioxide. They'll find all kinds 694 00:12:19,110 --> 00:12:19,120 carbon dioxide. They'll find all kinds 695 00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:21,190 carbon dioxide. They'll find all kinds of other reasons and each one you have 696 00:12:21,190 --> 00:12:21,200 of other reasons and each one you have 697 00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:23,110 of other reasons and each one you have to explain, no, it can't be that. So 698 00:12:23,110 --> 00:12:23,120 to explain, no, it can't be that. So 699 00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:24,870 to explain, no, it can't be that. So they'll try and use the argument that 700 00:12:24,870 --> 00:12:24,880 they'll try and use the argument that 701 00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:26,470 they'll try and use the argument that it's the sun. 702 00:12:26,470 --> 00:12:26,480 it's the sun. 703 00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:29,670 it's the sun. >> But solar output has been rising over 704 00:12:29,670 --> 00:12:29,680 >> But solar output has been rising over 705 00:12:29,680 --> 00:12:32,870 >> But solar output has been rising over the last 500 million years. So it hasn't 706 00:12:32,870 --> 00:12:32,880 the last 500 million years. So it hasn't 707 00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:35,269 the last 500 million years. So it hasn't suddenly caused this warming and it 708 00:12:35,269 --> 00:12:35,279 suddenly caused this warming and it 709 00:12:35,279 --> 00:12:37,590 suddenly caused this warming and it hasn't caused all the ups and downs and 710 00:12:37,590 --> 00:12:37,600 hasn't caused all the ups and downs and 711 00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:40,150 hasn't caused all the ups and downs and over the last 500 million years. It's 712 00:12:40,150 --> 00:12:40,160 over the last 500 million years. It's 713 00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:42,949 over the last 500 million years. It's not galactic rays because galactic rays 714 00:12:42,949 --> 00:12:42,959 not galactic rays because galactic rays 715 00:12:42,959 --> 00:12:45,110 not galactic rays because galactic rays run in periods of 20 million years and 716 00:12:45,110 --> 00:12:45,120 run in periods of 20 million years and 717 00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:47,430 run in periods of 20 million years and that doesn't fit the cycle. And it's not 718 00:12:47,430 --> 00:12:47,440 that doesn't fit the cycle. And it's not 719 00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:49,750 that doesn't fit the cycle. And it's not volcanoes. Um, which is another argument 720 00:12:49,750 --> 00:12:49,760 volcanoes. Um, which is another argument 721 00:12:49,760 --> 00:12:51,670 volcanoes. Um, which is another argument they come up with because volcanoes have 722 00:12:51,670 --> 00:12:51,680 they come up with because volcanoes have 723 00:12:51,680 --> 00:12:53,509 they come up with because volcanoes have a tendency to cool the earth in the 724 00:12:53,509 --> 00:12:53,519 a tendency to cool the earth in the 725 00:12:53,519 --> 00:12:54,310 a tendency to cool the earth in the short term. 726 00:12:54,310 --> 00:12:54,320 short term. 727 00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:55,990 short term. >> And then Melankovich, they they bring up 728 00:12:55,990 --> 00:12:56,000 >> And then Melankovich, they they bring up 729 00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:57,030 >> And then Melankovich, they they bring up Melankovich cycles. 730 00:12:57,030 --> 00:12:57,040 Melankovich cycles. 731 00:12:57,040 --> 00:12:58,470 Melankovich cycles. >> Melankovich, you see, now this is 732 00:12:58,470 --> 00:12:58,480 >> Melankovich, you see, now this is 733 00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:00,150 >> Melankovich, you see, now this is another thing they get very confused 734 00:13:00,150 --> 00:13:00,160 another thing they get very confused 735 00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:02,629 another thing they get very confused about time scales. Melankovich cycles 736 00:13:02,629 --> 00:13:02,639 about time scales. Melankovich cycles 737 00:13:02,639 --> 00:13:05,030 about time scales. Melankovich cycles only work, as far as we know, they only 738 00:13:05,030 --> 00:13:05,040 only work, as far as we know, they only 739 00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:08,150 only work, as far as we know, they only work in our um ice age. Probably worked 740 00:13:08,150 --> 00:13:08,160 work in our um ice age. Probably worked 741 00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:11,509 work in our um ice age. Probably worked in previous ones. But our ice age is an 742 00:13:11,509 --> 00:13:11,519 in previous ones. But our ice age is an 743 00:13:11,519 --> 00:13:14,310 in previous ones. But our ice age is an anomaly. It's it's a weird period over 744 00:13:14,310 --> 00:13:14,320 anomaly. It's it's a weird period over 745 00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:15,910 anomaly. It's it's a weird period over the last 500 million years. There have 746 00:13:15,910 --> 00:13:15,920 the last 500 million years. There have 747 00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:18,310 the last 500 million years. There have only been three ice ages. Ours has only 748 00:13:18,310 --> 00:13:18,320 only been three ice ages. Ours has only 749 00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:21,110 only been three ice ages. Ours has only lasted for two million years, two maybe 750 00:13:21,110 --> 00:13:21,120 lasted for two million years, two maybe 751 00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:24,230 lasted for two million years, two maybe two and a half. So, um it's it's an 752 00:13:24,230 --> 00:13:24,240 two and a half. So, um it's it's an 753 00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:27,990 two and a half. So, um it's it's an anomaly. And Melankovich cycles are what 754 00:13:27,990 --> 00:13:28,000 anomaly. And Melankovich cycles are what 755 00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:30,710 anomaly. And Melankovich cycles are what tips the earth from a glacial into an 756 00:13:30,710 --> 00:13:30,720 tips the earth from a glacial into an 757 00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:33,110 tips the earth from a glacial into an interglacial, which is not the way that 758 00:13:33,110 --> 00:13:33,120 interglacial, which is not the way that 759 00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:35,590 interglacial, which is not the way that the earth has has behaved in the past. 760 00:13:35,590 --> 00:13:35,600 the earth has has behaved in the past. 761 00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:37,509 the earth has has behaved in the past. And certainly, we can't say that we're 762 00:13:37,509 --> 00:13:37,519 And certainly, we can't say that we're 763 00:13:37,519 --> 00:13:39,990 And certainly, we can't say that we're in one of these wobbles or Blankovich 764 00:13:39,990 --> 00:13:40,000 in one of these wobbles or Blankovich 765 00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:43,190 in one of these wobbles or Blankovich cycles now because we know we're not. So 766 00:13:43,190 --> 00:13:43,200 cycles now because we know we're not. So 767 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:45,110 cycles now because we know we're not. So um that doesn't account for the warming 768 00:13:45,110 --> 00:13:45,120 um that doesn't account for the warming 769 00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:45,910 um that doesn't account for the warming over the last 770 00:13:45,910 --> 00:13:45,920 over the last 771 00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:48,150 over the last >> it's totally ad hoc right if you look at 772 00:13:48,150 --> 00:13:48,160 >> it's totally ad hoc right if you look at 773 00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:50,790 >> it's totally ad hoc right if you look at each meal cycle it's not in a position 774 00:13:50,790 --> 00:13:50,800 each meal cycle it's not in a position 775 00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:53,030 each meal cycle it's not in a position in that cycle that would be responsible 776 00:13:53,030 --> 00:13:53,040 in that cycle that would be responsible 777 00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:54,870 in that cycle that would be responsible for warming nor could it possibly 778 00:13:54,870 --> 00:13:54,880 for warming nor could it possibly 779 00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:57,110 for warming nor could it possibly explain the rapidity of the warming 780 00:13:57,110 --> 00:13:57,120 explain the rapidity of the warming 781 00:13:57,120 --> 00:13:59,269 explain the rapidity of the warming right over a couple of centuries these 782 00:13:59,269 --> 00:13:59,279 right over a couple of centuries these 783 00:13:59,279 --> 00:14:02,150 right over a couple of centuries these are 20,000 year 25,000year 784 00:14:02,150 --> 00:14:02,160 are 20,000 year 25,000year 785 00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:03,509 are 20,000 year 25,000year >> cycles um 786 00:14:03,509 --> 00:14:03,519 >> cycles um 787 00:14:03,519 --> 00:14:05,829 >> cycles um >> yeah and in fact we we have another 788 00:14:05,829 --> 00:14:05,839 >> yeah and in fact we we have another 789 00:14:05,839 --> 00:14:08,389 >> yeah and in fact we we have another 16,000 years before we even start 790 00:14:08,389 --> 00:14:08,399 16,000 years before we even start 791 00:14:08,399 --> 00:14:11,030 16,000 years before we even start looking at another glacial cycles 792 00:14:11,030 --> 00:14:11,040 looking at another glacial cycles 793 00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:13,670 looking at another glacial cycles >> I I think people get very confused about 794 00:14:13,670 --> 00:14:13,680 >> I I think people get very confused about 795 00:14:13,680 --> 00:14:15,430 >> I I think people get very confused about the history of the earth and geological 796 00:14:15,430 --> 00:14:15,440 the history of the earth and geological 797 00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:17,590 the history of the earth and geological time. And I actually did a video showing 798 00:14:17,590 --> 00:14:17,600 time. And I actually did a video showing 799 00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:19,910 time. And I actually did a video showing the difference between the the length of 800 00:14:19,910 --> 00:14:19,920 the difference between the the length of 801 00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:22,310 the difference between the the length of time over the Phanto 500 million year 802 00:14:22,310 --> 00:14:22,320 time over the Phanto 500 million year 803 00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:24,710 time over the Phanto 500 million year period and the 2 million years of our 804 00:14:24,710 --> 00:14:24,720 period and the 2 million years of our 805 00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:27,350 period and the 2 million years of our recent geological history. I mean I say 806 00:14:27,350 --> 00:14:27,360 recent geological history. I mean I say 807 00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:30,310 recent geological history. I mean I say recent as a geologist. Uh it's all new 808 00:14:30,310 --> 00:14:30,320 recent as a geologist. Uh it's all new 809 00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:32,790 recent as a geologist. Uh it's all new stuff. Um but you know there's a there's 810 00:14:32,790 --> 00:14:32,800 stuff. Um but you know there's a there's 811 00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:35,430 stuff. Um but you know there's a there's a huge difference in geological terms. 812 00:14:35,430 --> 00:14:35,440 a huge difference in geological terms. 813 00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:37,750 a huge difference in geological terms. Let's talk a little bit more about the 814 00:14:37,750 --> 00:14:37,760 Let's talk a little bit more about the 815 00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:40,790 Let's talk a little bit more about the sun because that is so the uh as I told 816 00:14:40,790 --> 00:14:40,800 sun because that is so the uh as I told 817 00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:42,710 sun because that is so the uh as I told my viewers, the the first time I became 818 00:14:42,710 --> 00:14:42,720 my viewers, the the first time I became 819 00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:45,509 my viewers, the the first time I became aware of you was uh I found you uh 820 00:14:45,509 --> 00:14:45,519 aware of you was uh I found you uh 821 00:14:45,519 --> 00:14:47,189 aware of you was uh I found you uh making fun of Ben Davidson a little bit 822 00:14:47,189 --> 00:14:47,199 making fun of Ben Davidson a little bit 823 00:14:47,199 --> 00:14:49,590 making fun of Ben Davidson a little bit in a couple of uh interactions which led 824 00:14:49,590 --> 00:14:49,600 in a couple of uh interactions which led 825 00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:51,990 in a couple of uh interactions which led to him never challenging an actual 826 00:14:51,990 --> 00:14:52,000 to him never challenging an actual 827 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:54,310 to him never challenging an actual expert ever again, which is hilarious to 828 00:14:54,310 --> 00:14:54,320 expert ever again, which is hilarious to 829 00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:54,949 expert ever again, which is hilarious to me. 830 00:14:54,949 --> 00:14:54,959 me. 831 00:14:54,959 --> 00:14:56,790 me. >> It wasn't hard, but it was fun. 832 00:14:56,790 --> 00:14:56,800 >> It wasn't hard, but it was fun. 833 00:14:56,800 --> 00:14:58,550 >> It wasn't hard, but it was fun. >> Yeah, I I I thought it was quite 834 00:14:58,550 --> 00:14:58,560 >> Yeah, I I I thought it was quite 835 00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:01,509 >> Yeah, I I I thought it was quite humorous.

But um so his the the sun angle and I think that there are these 838 00:15:02,870 --> 00:15:02,880 angle and I think that there are these 839 00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:05,350 angle and I think that there are these other kind of space disaster weather 840 00:15:05,350 --> 00:15:05,360 other kind of space disaster weather 841 00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:08,069 other kind of space disaster weather news. Uh it's a very trendy thing right 842 00:15:08,069 --> 00:15:08,079 news. Uh it's a very trendy thing right 843 00:15:08,079 --> 00:15:09,350 news. Uh it's a very trendy thing right now on YouTube. There's a bunch of 844 00:15:09,350 --> 00:15:09,360 now on YouTube. There's a bunch of 845 00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:12,230 now on YouTube. There's a bunch of copycat frauds that kind of all spew the 846 00:15:12,230 --> 00:15:12,240 copycat frauds that kind of all spew the 847 00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:14,230 copycat frauds that kind of all spew the same stuff and Ben's a little more like 848 00:15:14,230 --> 00:15:14,240 same stuff and Ben's a little more like 849 00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:17,430 same stuff and Ben's a little more like cult leader compound about it. Um uh 850 00:15:17,430 --> 00:15:17,440 cult leader compound about it. Um uh 851 00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:19,430 cult leader compound about it. Um uh super ma. Others are like a little 852 00:15:19,430 --> 00:15:19,440 super ma. Others are like a little 853 00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:20,790 super ma. Others are like a little chiller but they kind of have the same 854 00:15:20,790 --> 00:15:20,800 chiller but they kind of have the same 855 00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:23,750 chiller but they kind of have the same grift. How what like let's just dig a 856 00:15:23,750 --> 00:15:23,760 grift. How what like let's just dig a 857 00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:25,430 grift. How what like let's just dig a little bit more into this sun thing. the 858 00:15:25,430 --> 00:15:25,440 little bit more into this sun thing. the 859 00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:27,509 little bit more into this sun thing. the sun is causing not I mean it Ben's thing 860 00:15:27,509 --> 00:15:27,519 sun is causing not I mean it Ben's thing 861 00:15:27,519 --> 00:15:29,110 sun is causing not I mean it Ben's thing is like it's causing earthquakes and 862 00:15:29,110 --> 00:15:29,120 is like it's causing earthquakes and 863 00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:32,230 is like it's causing earthquakes and stuff too but um let's let's a little 864 00:15:32,230 --> 00:15:32,240 stuff too but um let's let's a little 865 00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:33,910 stuff too but um let's let's a little spend a couple more minutes debunking 866 00:15:33,910 --> 00:15:33,920 spend a couple more minutes debunking 867 00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:35,670 spend a couple more minutes debunking the sun angle. 868 00:15:35,670 --> 00:15:35,680 the sun angle. 869 00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:37,750 the sun angle. >> Yeah, let's do that because there's so 870 00:15:37,750 --> 00:15:37,760 >> Yeah, let's do that because there's so 871 00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:39,670 >> Yeah, let's do that because there's so many ways you can do this. I mean, if 872 00:15:39,670 --> 00:15:39,680 many ways you can do this. I mean, if 873 00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:43,030 many ways you can do this. I mean, if people um again, if if we're looking at 874 00:15:43,030 --> 00:15:43,040 people um again, if if we're looking at 875 00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:45,990 people um again, if if we're looking at time scales, it's different during the 876 00:15:45,990 --> 00:15:46,000 time scales, it's different during the 877 00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:49,269 time scales, it's different during the glacial interglacial periods because a 878 00:15:49,269 --> 00:15:49,279 glacial interglacial periods because a 879 00:15:49,279 --> 00:15:52,389 glacial interglacial periods because a very small change in solar radiance at 880 00:15:52,389 --> 00:15:52,399 very small change in solar radiance at 881 00:15:52,399 --> 00:15:55,030 very small change in solar radiance at certain latitudes starts the melt of ice 882 00:15:55,030 --> 00:15:55,040 certain latitudes starts the melt of ice 883 00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:58,310 certain latitudes starts the melt of ice sheets and as ice sheets melt, they 884 00:15:58,310 --> 00:15:58,320 sheets and as ice sheets melt, they 885 00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:00,150 sheets and as ice sheets melt, they reflect a lot of sunlight. So then 886 00:16:00,150 --> 00:16:00,160 reflect a lot of sunlight. So then 887 00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:03,829 reflect a lot of sunlight. So then they're opening up a land or sea where 888 00:16:03,829 --> 00:16:03,839 they're opening up a land or sea where 889 00:16:03,839 --> 00:16:05,829 they're opening up a land or sea where the energy from the sun can be absorbed. 890 00:16:05,829 --> 00:16:05,839 the energy from the sun can be absorbed. 891 00:16:05,839 --> 00:16:07,910 the energy from the sun can be absorbed. So that's an amplifying effect. So it's 892 00:16:07,910 --> 00:16:07,920 So that's an amplifying effect. So it's 893 00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:10,150 So that's an amplifying effect. So it's a huge amplifier. Now if we look over 894 00:16:10,150 --> 00:16:10,160 a huge amplifier. Now if we look over 895 00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:13,269 a huge amplifier. Now if we look over the phenorizoic um as I was saying the 896 00:16:13,269 --> 00:16:13,279 the phenorizoic um as I was saying the 897 00:16:13,279 --> 00:16:16,710 the phenorizoic um as I was saying the the solar output has been increasing 898 00:16:16,710 --> 00:16:16,720 the solar output has been increasing 899 00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:19,829 the solar output has been increasing over time at the same rate more or less 900 00:16:19,829 --> 00:16:19,839 over time at the same rate more or less 901 00:16:19,839 --> 00:16:21,990 over time at the same rate more or less at which CO2 has been going down. It's 902 00:16:21,990 --> 00:16:22,000 at which CO2 has been going down. It's 903 00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:24,470 at which CO2 has been going down. It's been very very steady. If the sun was 904 00:16:24,470 --> 00:16:24,480 been very very steady. If the sun was 905 00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:27,670 been very very steady. If the sun was responsible for all the ups and downs in 906 00:16:27,670 --> 00:16:27,680 responsible for all the ups and downs in 907 00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:29,829 responsible for all the ups and downs in global temperature over the last 500 908 00:16:29,829 --> 00:16:29,839 global temperature over the last 500 909 00:16:29,839 --> 00:16:31,749 global temperature over the last 500 million years and we've gone from hot 910 00:16:31,749 --> 00:16:31,759 million years and we've gone from hot 911 00:16:31,759 --> 00:16:33,829 million years and we've gone from hot houses for example during the Siluran 912 00:16:33,829 --> 00:16:33,839 houses for example during the Siluran 913 00:16:33,839 --> 00:16:36,710 houses for example during the Siluran during the uh the Cambrian and we've 914 00:16:36,710 --> 00:16:36,720 during the uh the Cambrian and we've 915 00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:39,350 during the uh the Cambrian and we've gone to ice ages during the Deavonian 916 00:16:39,350 --> 00:16:39,360 gone to ice ages during the Deavonian 917 00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:41,430 gone to ice ages during the Deavonian and the Carboniferous which by the way I 918 00:16:41,430 --> 00:16:41,440 and the Carboniferous which by the way I 919 00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:42,629 and the Carboniferous which by the way I think in the United States it's called 920 00:16:42,629 --> 00:16:42,639 think in the United States it's called 921 00:16:42,639 --> 00:16:46,470 think in the United States it's called the Mississippian um different same 922 00:16:46,470 --> 00:16:46,480 the Mississippian um different same 923 00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:49,350 the Mississippian um different same period but but different name and these 924 00:16:49,350 --> 00:16:49,360 period but but different name and these 925 00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:53,030 period but but different name and these ups and downs um cannot be explained by 926 00:16:53,030 --> 00:16:53,040 ups and downs um cannot be explained by 927 00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:54,790 ups and downs um cannot be explained by the sun because you 928 00:16:54,790 --> 00:16:54,800 the sun because you 929 00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:56,949 the sun because you >> I mean the sun has been gradually 930 00:16:56,949 --> 00:16:56,959 >> I mean the sun has been gradually 931 00:16:56,959 --> 00:16:59,590 >> I mean the sun has been gradually increasing but it hasn't been flipping 932 00:16:59,590 --> 00:16:59,600 increasing but it hasn't been flipping 933 00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:02,550 increasing but it hasn't been flipping you know one two 3% either way would 934 00:17:02,550 --> 00:17:02,560 you know one two 3% either way would 935 00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:04,870 you know one two 3% either way would cause this the only thing that's been 936 00:17:04,870 --> 00:17:04,880 cause this the only thing that's been 937 00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:07,350 cause this the only thing that's been changing uh is carbon dioxide and I'll 938 00:17:07,350 --> 00:17:07,360 changing uh is carbon dioxide and I'll 939 00:17:07,360 --> 00:17:09,350 changing uh is carbon dioxide and I'll just very quickly explain how this 940 00:17:09,350 --> 00:17:09,360 just very quickly explain how this 941 00:17:09,360 --> 00:17:11,189 just very quickly explain how this happens because carbon dioxide was 942 00:17:11,189 --> 00:17:11,199 happens because carbon dioxide was 943 00:17:11,199 --> 00:17:14,230 happens because carbon dioxide was around 20 times today's level during the 944 00:17:14,230 --> 00:17:14,240 around 20 times today's level during the 945 00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:16,069 around 20 times today's level during the Cambrian this is about 500 million years 946 00:17:16,069 --> 00:17:16,079 Cambrian this is about 500 million years 947 00:17:16,079 --> 00:17:16,949 Cambrian this is about 500 million years ago 948 00:17:16,949 --> 00:17:16,959 ago 949 00:17:16,959 --> 00:17:19,590 ago >> and over time it's gradually decreased 950 00:17:19,590 --> 00:17:19,600 >> and over time it's gradually decreased 951 00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:21,189 >> and over time it's gradually decreased and the way it decreases is something 952 00:17:21,189 --> 00:17:21,199 and the way it decreases is something 953 00:17:21,199 --> 00:17:23,750 and the way it decreases is something called chemical weathering where you get 954 00:17:23,750 --> 00:17:23,760 called chemical weathering where you get 955 00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:26,150 called chemical weathering where you get um uh carbon dioxide in the air mixing 956 00:17:26,150 --> 00:17:26,160 um uh carbon dioxide in the air mixing 957 00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:29,350 um uh carbon dioxide in the air mixing with rain forms a weak acid dissolving 958 00:17:29,350 --> 00:17:29,360 with rain forms a weak acid dissolving 959 00:17:29,360 --> 00:17:32,630 with rain forms a weak acid dissolving rocks sending those into the ocean as a 960 00:17:32,630 --> 00:17:32,640 rocks sending those into the ocean as a 961 00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:35,029 rocks sending those into the ocean as a calcium carbonate. So most of the 962 00:17:35,029 --> 00:17:35,039 calcium carbonate. So most of the 963 00:17:35,039 --> 00:17:37,590 calcium carbonate. So most of the world's limestone is a calcium carbonate 964 00:17:37,590 --> 00:17:37,600 world's limestone is a calcium carbonate 965 00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:40,150 world's limestone is a calcium carbonate that's basically locked up all of that 966 00:17:40,150 --> 00:17:40,160 that's basically locked up all of that 967 00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:41,990 that's basically locked up all of that carbon dioxide that used to be in our 968 00:17:41,990 --> 00:17:42,000 carbon dioxide that used to be in our 969 00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:44,789 carbon dioxide that used to be in our atmosphere and to a certain extent the 970 00:17:44,789 --> 00:17:44,799 atmosphere and to a certain extent the 971 00:17:44,799 --> 00:17:46,789 atmosphere and to a certain extent the coal and oil not quite as much but 972 00:17:46,789 --> 00:17:46,799 coal and oil not quite as much but 973 00:17:46,799 --> 00:17:48,470 coal and oil not quite as much but certainly a good deal of that 974 00:17:48,470 --> 00:17:48,480 certainly a good deal of that 975 00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:49,990 certainly a good deal of that >> and that's taken that out of the 976 00:17:49,990 --> 00:17:50,000 >> and that's taken that out of the 977 00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:52,070 >> and that's taken that out of the atmosphere. So over time carbon dioxide 978 00:17:52,070 --> 00:17:52,080 atmosphere. So over time carbon dioxide 979 00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:54,470 atmosphere. So over time carbon dioxide has has been falling and it gets 980 00:17:54,470 --> 00:17:54,480 has has been falling and it gets 981 00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:56,950 has has been falling and it gets replenished every now and again you get 982 00:17:56,950 --> 00:17:56,960 replenished every now and again you get 983 00:17:56,960 --> 00:17:59,270 replenished every now and again you get a blip with carbon dioxide and that's 984 00:17:59,270 --> 00:17:59,280 a blip with carbon dioxide and that's 985 00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:01,430 a blip with carbon dioxide and that's caused by things called flood bassels 986 00:18:01,430 --> 00:18:01,440 caused by things called flood bassels 987 00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:03,669 caused by things called flood bassels which are events where the earth 988 00:18:03,669 --> 00:18:03,679 which are events where the earth 989 00:18:03,679 --> 00:18:06,549 which are events where the earth basically opens up and the upper mantle 990 00:18:06,549 --> 00:18:06,559 basically opens up and the upper mantle 991 00:18:06,559 --> 00:18:09,510 basically opens up and the upper mantle uh lava floods across the surface of the 992 00:18:09,510 --> 00:18:09,520 uh lava floods across the surface of the 993 00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:11,590 uh lava floods across the surface of the earth and an outpouring of carbon 994 00:18:11,590 --> 00:18:11,600 earth and an outpouring of carbon 995 00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:14,470 earth and an outpouring of carbon dioxide and when that happens you get a 996 00:18:14,470 --> 00:18:14,480 dioxide and when that happens you get a 997 00:18:14,480 --> 00:18:17,590 dioxide and when that happens you get a huge increase in CO2 and with every fall 998 00:18:17,590 --> 00:18:17,600 huge increase in CO2 and with every fall 999 00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:20,870 huge increase in CO2 and with every fall in CO2 we've seen an ice age and every 1000 00:18:20,870 --> 00:18:20,880 in CO2 we've seen an ice age and every 1001 00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:23,430 in CO2 we've seen an ice age and every rise in CO2, you know, significant 1002 00:18:23,430 --> 00:18:23,440 rise in CO2, you know, significant 1003 00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:25,270 rise in CO2, you know, significant enough, we've seen increases in 1004 00:18:25,270 --> 00:18:25,280 enough, we've seen increases in 1005 00:18:25,280 --> 00:18:27,190 enough, we've seen increases in temperatures. So that's how we know that 1006 00:18:27,190 --> 00:18:27,200 temperatures. So that's how we know that 1007 00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:29,990 temperatures. So that's how we know that CO2 is the long-term driver. It can't be 1008 00:18:29,990 --> 00:18:30,000 CO2 is the long-term driver. It can't be 1009 00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:31,909 CO2 is the long-term driver. It can't be the sun because otherwise you would have 1010 00:18:31,909 --> 00:18:31,919 the sun because otherwise you would have 1011 00:18:31,919 --> 00:18:33,990 the sun because otherwise you would have seen these violent swings. And 1012 00:18:33,990 --> 00:18:34,000 seen these violent swings. And 1013 00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:36,230 seen these violent swings. And >> you can't propose that that is the cause 1014 00:18:36,230 --> 00:18:36,240 >> you can't propose that that is the cause 1015 00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:38,150 >> you can't propose that that is the cause when there is no correlation 1016 00:18:38,150 --> 00:18:38,160 when there is no correlation 1017 00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:40,150 when there is no correlation historically, right? One trend in the 1018 00:18:40,150 --> 00:18:40,160 historically, right? One trend in the 1019 00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:41,750 historically, right? One trend in the other. There they just don't correlate 1020 00:18:41,750 --> 00:18:41,760 other. There they just don't correlate 1021 00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:44,870 other. There they just don't correlate at all. Where's the basis for for saying 1022 00:18:44,870 --> 00:18:44,880 at all. Where's the basis for for saying 1023 00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:48,710 at all. Where's the basis for for saying that? Um, so yeah. So I guess it it's 1024 00:18:48,710 --> 00:18:48,720 that? Um, so yeah. So I guess it it's 1025 00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:50,470 that? Um, so yeah. So I guess it it's very difficult for a climate change 1026 00:18:50,470 --> 00:18:50,480 very difficult for a climate change 1027 00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:53,510 very difficult for a climate change denier to uh to deny that CO2 is the 1028 00:18:53,510 --> 00:18:53,520 denier to uh to deny that CO2 is the 1029 00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:55,270 denier to uh to deny that CO2 is the culprit, but then they always go to, oh, 1030 00:18:55,270 --> 00:18:55,280 culprit, but then they always go to, oh, 1031 00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:58,230 culprit, but then they always go to, oh, but it's it's such a trace gas. It's 1032 00:18:58,230 --> 00:18:58,240 but it's it's such a trace gas. It's 1033 00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:01,270 but it's it's such a trace gas. It's 0.2% of the atmosphere, whatever it is. 1034 00:19:01,270 --> 00:19:01,280 0.2% of the atmosphere, whatever it is. 1035 00:19:01,280 --> 00:19:04,150 0.2% of the atmosphere, whatever it is. How can this possibly like like yeah, 1036 00:19:04,150 --> 00:19:04,160 How can this possibly like like yeah, 1037 00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:06,310 How can this possibly like like yeah, there's some correlation, but how is it 1038 00:19:06,310 --> 00:19:06,320 there's some correlation, but how is it 1039 00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:07,990 there's some correlation, but how is it going to make the Earth like, you know, 1040 00:19:07,990 --> 00:19:08,000 going to make the Earth like, you know, 1041 00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:09,909 going to make the Earth like, you know, how is it going to be this catastrophic 1042 00:19:09,909 --> 00:19:09,919 how is it going to be this catastrophic 1043 00:19:09,919 --> 00:19:11,830 how is it going to be this catastrophic thing? Like what do we say to that? 1044 00:19:11,830 --> 00:19:11,840 thing? Like what do we say to that? 1045 00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:14,230 thing? Like what do we say to that? Yeah, you this is where I love the 1046 00:19:14,230 --> 00:19:14,240 Yeah, you this is where I love the 1047 00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:17,510 Yeah, you this is where I love the contradictions. Um actually just going 1048 00:19:17,510 --> 00:19:17,520 contradictions. Um actually just going 1049 00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:18,470 contradictions. Um actually just going back to the sun, talking of 1050 00:19:18,470 --> 00:19:18,480 back to the sun, talking of 1051 00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:20,230 back to the sun, talking of contradictions, one of the things they 1052 00:19:20,230 --> 00:19:20,240 contradictions, one of the things they 1053 00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:21,909 contradictions, one of the things they always say is, "Oh, scientists are 1054 00:19:21,909 --> 00:19:21,919 always say is, "Oh, scientists are 1055 00:19:21,919 --> 00:19:24,789 always say is, "Oh, scientists are ignoring the sun." Um and yet when they 1056 00:19:24,789 --> 00:19:24,799 ignoring the sun." Um and yet when they 1057 00:19:24,799 --> 00:19:27,270 ignoring the sun." Um and yet when they show the correlation that doesn't exist 1058 00:19:27,270 --> 00:19:27,280 show the correlation that doesn't exist 1059 00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:29,830 show the correlation that doesn't exist between CO2 and global temperatures, 1060 00:19:29,830 --> 00:19:29,840 between CO2 and global temperatures, 1061 00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:31,110 between CO2 and global temperatures, they say, "Well, there's no correlation 1062 00:19:31,110 --> 00:19:31,120 they say, "Well, there's no correlation 1063 00:19:31,120 --> 00:19:32,789 they say, "Well, there's no correlation between CO2 and global temperature." 1064 00:19:32,789 --> 00:19:32,799 between CO2 and global temperature." 1065 00:19:32,799 --> 00:19:34,470 between CO2 and global temperature." they are completely ignoring the role of 1066 00:19:34,470 --> 00:19:34,480 they are completely ignoring the role of 1067 00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:36,789 they are completely ignoring the role of the sun because you have to you have to 1068 00:19:36,789 --> 00:19:36,799 the sun because you have to you have to 1069 00:19:36,799 --> 00:19:38,150 the sun because you have to you have to take the fact that the sun's been 1070 00:19:38,150 --> 00:19:38,160 take the fact that the sun's been 1071 00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:40,789 take the fact that the sun's been increasing over 500 million years along 1072 00:19:40,789 --> 00:19:40,799 increasing over 500 million years along 1073 00:19:40,799 --> 00:19:42,549 increasing over 500 million years along with the decrease. You've got to look at 1074 00:19:42,549 --> 00:19:42,559 with the decrease. You've got to look at 1075 00:19:42,559 --> 00:19:45,350 with the decrease. You've got to look at all the factors and not just one. But um 1076 00:19:45,350 --> 00:19:45,360 all the factors and not just one. But um 1077 00:19:45,360 --> 00:19:46,950 all the factors and not just one. But um sorry getting back to your point about 1078 00:19:46,950 --> 00:19:46,960 sorry getting back to your point about 1079 00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:49,270 sorry getting back to your point about 0.3% of the atmosphere. This is another 1080 00:19:49,270 --> 00:19:49,280 0.3% of the atmosphere. This is another 1081 00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:51,110 0.3% of the atmosphere. This is another great contradiction because one of the 1082 00:19:51,110 --> 00:19:51,120 great contradiction because one of the 1083 00:19:51,120 --> 00:19:52,710 great contradiction because one of the things I've heard and I'm sure you have 1084 00:19:52,710 --> 00:19:52,720 things I've heard and I'm sure you have 1085 00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:56,230 things I've heard and I'm sure you have too Dave is that uh CO2 is is vital to 1086 00:19:56,230 --> 00:19:56,240 too Dave is that uh CO2 is is vital to 1087 00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:58,390 too Dave is that uh CO2 is is vital to our planet. It's plant food. We need 1088 00:19:58,390 --> 00:19:58,400 our planet. It's plant food. We need 1089 00:19:58,400 --> 00:20:00,390 our planet. It's plant food. We need more of it because it's so absolutely 1090 00:20:00,390 --> 00:20:00,400 more of it because it's so absolutely 1091 00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:01,029 more of it because it's so absolutely crucial. Yeah. 1092 00:20:01,029 --> 00:20:01,039 crucial. Yeah. 1093 00:20:01,039 --> 00:20:03,669 crucial. Yeah. >> Well, hang on a minute. You just told me 1094 00:20:03,669 --> 00:20:03,679 >> Well, hang on a minute. You just told me 1095 00:20:03,679 --> 00:20:06,150 >> Well, hang on a minute. You just told me it's only 0.3% of the atmosphere and 1096 00:20:06,150 --> 00:20:06,160 it's only 0.3% of the atmosphere and 1097 00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:07,909 it's only 0.3% of the atmosphere and therefore completely insignificant and 1098 00:20:07,909 --> 00:20:07,919 therefore completely insignificant and 1099 00:20:07,919 --> 00:20:10,710 therefore completely insignificant and can't have any effect. But the way to 1100 00:20:10,710 --> 00:20:10,720 can't have any effect. But the way to 1101 00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:12,789 can't have any effect. But the way to argue this, as I say, is you've got to 1102 00:20:12,789 --> 00:20:12,799 argue this, as I say, is you've got to 1103 00:20:12,799 --> 00:20:15,350 argue this, as I say, is you've got to treat the other person like a teacher. 1104 00:20:15,350 --> 00:20:15,360 treat the other person like a teacher. 1105 00:20:15,360 --> 00:20:17,590 treat the other person like a teacher. So, you you ask a question instead of 1106 00:20:17,590 --> 00:20:17,600 So, you you ask a question instead of 1107 00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:19,350 So, you you ask a question instead of telling giving him information. So, you 1108 00:20:19,350 --> 00:20:19,360 telling giving him information. So, you 1109 00:20:19,360 --> 00:20:20,390 telling giving him information. So, you say, 1110 00:20:20,390 --> 00:20:20,400 say, 1111 00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:22,870 say, >> um, okay, so you don't think it can 1112 00:20:22,870 --> 00:20:22,880 >> um, okay, so you don't think it can 1113 00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:25,669 >> um, okay, so you don't think it can possibly have an effect on on the earth 1114 00:20:25,669 --> 00:20:25,679 possibly have an effect on on the earth 1115 00:20:25,679 --> 00:20:27,990 possibly have an effect on on the earth at all? I mean, would it have no effect? 1116 00:20:27,990 --> 00:20:28,000 at all? I mean, would it have no effect? 1117 00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:29,190 at all? I mean, would it have no effect? And when they say yeah, it can't 1118 00:20:29,190 --> 00:20:29,200 And when they say yeah, it can't 1119 00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:30,710 And when they say yeah, it can't possibly have an effect, then you go 1120 00:20:30,710 --> 00:20:30,720 possibly have an effect, then you go 1121 00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:32,070 possibly have an effect, then you go into the argument about, well, what 1122 00:20:32,070 --> 00:20:32,080 into the argument about, well, what 1123 00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:33,990 into the argument about, well, what about plants? What about 1124 00:20:33,990 --> 00:20:34,000 about plants? What about 1125 00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:36,230 about plants? What about >> crops grown and all that? The other 1126 00:20:36,230 --> 00:20:36,240 >> crops grown and all that? The other 1127 00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:39,830 >> crops grown and all that? The other thing I I always ask is um okay, how 1128 00:20:39,830 --> 00:20:39,840 thing I I always ask is um okay, how 1129 00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:42,390 thing I I always ask is um okay, how many how many tons of carbon dioxide are 1130 00:20:42,390 --> 00:20:42,400 many how many tons of carbon dioxide are 1131 00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:44,149 many how many tons of carbon dioxide are in the atmosphere? Never mind the 1132 00:20:44,149 --> 00:20:44,159 in the atmosphere? Never mind the 1133 00:20:44,159 --> 00:20:45,590 in the atmosphere? Never mind the percentage because most of the 1134 00:20:45,590 --> 00:20:45,600 percentage because most of the 1135 00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:48,549 percentage because most of the atmosphere is inert. It's nitrogen. 1136 00:20:48,549 --> 00:20:48,559 atmosphere is inert. It's nitrogen. 1137 00:20:48,559 --> 00:20:49,909 atmosphere is inert. It's nitrogen. >> See if they can throw out a number, 1138 00:20:49,909 --> 00:20:49,919 >> See if they can throw out a number, 1139 00:20:49,919 --> 00:20:50,549 >> See if they can throw out a number, right? How many 1140 00:20:50,549 --> 00:20:50,559 right? How many 1141 00:20:50,559 --> 00:20:52,630 right? How many >> billions? Get an actual number. Now, 1142 00:20:52,630 --> 00:20:52,640 >> billions? Get an actual number. Now, 1143 00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:54,149 >> billions? Get an actual number. Now, they would be amazed because they don't 1144 00:20:54,149 --> 00:20:54,159 they would be amazed because they don't 1145 00:20:54,159 --> 00:20:56,070 they would be amazed because they don't know. And one of one of the great things 1146 00:20:56,070 --> 00:20:56,080 know. And one of one of the great things 1147 00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:59,750 know. And one of one of the great things about uh arguing with these people for 1148 00:20:59,750 --> 00:20:59,760 about uh arguing with these people for 1149 00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:02,230 about uh arguing with these people for some reason they will never be able to 1150 00:21:02,230 --> 00:21:02,240 some reason they will never be able to 1151 00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:04,870 some reason they will never be able to say I don't know. And as a scientist you 1152 00:21:04,870 --> 00:21:04,880 say I don't know. And as a scientist you 1153 00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:06,390 say I don't know. And as a scientist you know that's one of the most common 1154 00:21:06,390 --> 00:21:06,400 know that's one of the most common 1155 00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:08,549 know that's one of the most common things you hear from scientists is 1156 00:21:08,549 --> 00:21:08,559 things you hear from scientists is 1157 00:21:08,559 --> 00:21:10,149 things you hear from scientists is >> I don't know. And as a science 1158 00:21:10,149 --> 00:21:10,159 >> I don't know. And as a science 1159 00:21:10,159 --> 00:21:11,190 >> I don't know. And as a science journalist that's one of the most 1160 00:21:11,190 --> 00:21:11,200 journalist that's one of the most 1161 00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:12,870 journalist that's one of the most frustrating. You ask them a question 1162 00:21:12,870 --> 00:21:12,880 frustrating. You ask them a question 1163 00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:15,750 frustrating. You ask them a question well we don't know that yet. Um but but 1164 00:21:15,750 --> 00:21:15,760 well we don't know that yet. Um but but 1165 00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:17,669 well we don't know that yet. Um but but they will never say I don't know. And 1166 00:21:17,669 --> 00:21:17,679 they will never say I don't know. And 1167 00:21:17,679 --> 00:21:19,669 they will never say I don't know. And because they can't say I don't know they 1168 00:21:19,669 --> 00:21:19,679 because they can't say I don't know they 1169 00:21:19,679 --> 00:21:22,149 because they can't say I don't know they will have to make something up. And if 1170 00:21:22,149 --> 00:21:22,159 will have to make something up. And if 1171 00:21:22,159 --> 00:21:23,669 will have to make something up. And if you make something up on the spur of the 1172 00:21:23,669 --> 00:21:23,679 you make something up on the spur of the 1173 00:21:23,679 --> 00:21:25,909 you make something up on the spur of the moment, that's going to be a trap. So 1174 00:21:25,909 --> 00:21:25,919 moment, that's going to be a trap. So 1175 00:21:25,919 --> 00:21:27,750 moment, that's going to be a trap. So they will make up a number which you can 1176 00:21:27,750 --> 00:21:27,760 they will make up a number which you can 1177 00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:30,149 they will make up a number which you can very quickly disprove. If they really 1178 00:21:30,149 --> 00:21:30,159 very quickly disprove. If they really 1179 00:21:30,159 --> 00:21:32,789 very quickly disprove. If they really don't know, the actual figure is is 1180 00:21:32,789 --> 00:21:32,799 don't know, the actual figure is is 1181 00:21:32,799 --> 00:21:34,630 don't know, the actual figure is is surprising for people who don't know it. 1182 00:21:34,630 --> 00:21:34,640 surprising for people who don't know it. 1183 00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:37,750 surprising for people who don't know it. It's 3,364 1184 00:21:37,750 --> 00:21:37,760 It's 3,364 1185 00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:40,710 It's 3,364 billion tons. That's over 3 trillion 1186 00:21:40,710 --> 00:21:40,720 billion tons. That's over 3 trillion 1187 00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:43,909 billion tons. That's over 3 trillion tons of carbon dioxide in the air. 1188 00:21:43,909 --> 00:21:43,919 tons of carbon dioxide in the air. 1189 00:21:43,919 --> 00:21:46,149 tons of carbon dioxide in the air. Now you're talking about a figure to 1190 00:21:46,149 --> 00:21:46,159 Now you're talking about a figure to 1191 00:21:46,159 --> 00:21:47,830 Now you're talking about a figure to say, well, this couldn't possibly have 1192 00:21:47,830 --> 00:21:47,840 say, well, this couldn't possibly have 1193 00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:51,270 say, well, this couldn't possibly have any effect when a third of that that's 1194 00:21:51,270 --> 00:21:51,280 any effect when a third of that that's 1195 00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:53,830 any effect when a third of that that's over a trillion tons has been put up 1196 00:21:53,830 --> 00:21:53,840 over a trillion tons has been put up 1197 00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:56,549 over a trillion tons has been put up there since the industrial revolution, 1198 00:21:56,549 --> 00:21:56,559 there since the industrial revolution, 1199 00:21:56,559 --> 00:21:56,870 there since the industrial revolution, >> right? 1200 00:21:56,870 --> 00:21:56,880 >> right? 1201 00:21:56,880 --> 00:21:59,190 >> right? >> Uh people will start to see, well, are 1202 00:21:59,190 --> 00:21:59,200 >> Uh people will start to see, well, are 1203 00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:00,950 >> Uh people will start to see, well, are you saying that could have no effect? 1204 00:22:00,950 --> 00:22:00,960 you saying that could have no effect? 1205 00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:02,310 you saying that could have no effect? And there's one other thing, and I've 1206 00:22:02,310 --> 00:22:02,320 And there's one other thing, and I've 1207 00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:04,310 And there's one other thing, and I've got a video which maybe you've seen, 1208 00:22:04,310 --> 00:22:04,320 got a video which maybe you've seen, 1209 00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:07,350 got a video which maybe you've seen, Dave, it's um fantastic. A guy did a an 1210 00:22:07,350 --> 00:22:07,360 Dave, it's um fantastic. A guy did a an 1211 00:22:07,360 --> 00:22:09,510 Dave, it's um fantastic. A guy did a an experiment where he got that same 1212 00:22:09,510 --> 00:22:09,520 experiment where he got that same 1213 00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:13,029 experiment where he got that same percentage, 0.3% of black ink and put it 1214 00:22:13,029 --> 00:22:13,039 percentage, 0.3% of black ink and put it 1215 00:22:13,039 --> 00:22:15,830 percentage, 0.3% of black ink and put it in water, mixed it up, and the ink you 1216 00:22:15,830 --> 00:22:15,840 in water, mixed it up, and the ink you 1217 00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:18,630 in water, mixed it up, and the ink you couldn't see through it. And that's that 1218 00:22:18,630 --> 00:22:18,640 couldn't see through it. And that's that 1219 00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:21,270 couldn't see through it. And that's that if that was in the atmosphere, if carbon 1220 00:22:21,270 --> 00:22:21,280 if that was in the atmosphere, if carbon 1221 00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:24,070 if that was in the atmosphere, if carbon dioxide was visible as a gas, if it had 1222 00:22:24,070 --> 00:22:24,080 dioxide was visible as a gas, if it had 1223 00:22:24,080 --> 00:22:26,870 dioxide was visible as a gas, if it had a a black color to it, we would not be 1224 00:22:26,870 --> 00:22:26,880 a a black color to it, we would not be 1225 00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:29,430 a a black color to it, we would not be able to see the sky. It would become 1226 00:22:29,430 --> 00:22:29,440 able to see the sky. It would become 1227 00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:29,669 able to see the sky. It would become totally 1228 00:22:29,669 --> 00:22:29,679 totally 1229 00:22:29,679 --> 00:22:32,950 totally >> opaque. I mean, that video is fantastic. 1230 00:22:32,950 --> 00:22:32,960 >> opaque. I mean, that video is fantastic. 1231 00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:34,789 >> opaque. I mean, that video is fantastic. >> That's interesting. Yeah. I mean, it it 1232 00:22:34,789 --> 00:22:34,799 >> That's interesting. Yeah. I mean, it it 1233 00:22:34,799 --> 00:22:37,350 >> That's interesting. Yeah. I mean, it it is true. It's like I I feel like some 1234 00:22:37,350 --> 00:22:37,360 is true. It's like I I feel like some 1235 00:22:37,360 --> 00:22:39,909 is true. It's like I I feel like some people are operating under the under the 1236 00:22:39,909 --> 00:22:39,919 people are operating under the under the 1237 00:22:39,919 --> 00:22:42,710 people are operating under the under the like presumption of like oh air is like 1238 00:22:42,710 --> 00:22:42,720 like presumption of like oh air is like 1239 00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:43,830 like presumption of like oh air is like it doesn't even weigh anything. It's 1240 00:22:43,830 --> 00:22:43,840 it doesn't even weigh anything. It's 1241 00:22:43,840 --> 00:22:45,990 it doesn't even weigh anything. It's it's massless. It's it's air. It's air 1242 00:22:45,990 --> 00:22:46,000 it's massless. It's it's air. It's air 1243 00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:48,070 it's massless. It's it's air. It's air you guys. Just the the sheer amounts. I 1244 00:22:48,070 --> 00:22:48,080 you guys. Just the the sheer amounts. I 1245 00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:50,070 you guys. Just the the sheer amounts. I mean if you haven't seen footage of like 1246 00:22:50,070 --> 00:22:50,080 mean if you haven't seen footage of like 1247 00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:53,029 mean if you haven't seen footage of like what industrial emissions look like uh 1248 00:22:53,029 --> 00:22:53,039 what industrial emissions look like uh 1249 00:22:53,039 --> 00:22:56,310 what industrial emissions look like uh you know like huge huge stacks um and 1250 00:22:56,310 --> 00:22:56,320 you know like huge huge stacks um and 1251 00:22:56,320 --> 00:22:57,990 you know like huge huge stacks um and just think of that pouring constantly 1252 00:22:57,990 --> 00:22:58,000 just think of that pouring constantly 1253 00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:01,029 just think of that pouring constantly all the time. um the naive of thinking 1254 00:23:01,029 --> 00:23:01,039 all the time. um the naive of thinking 1255 00:23:01,039 --> 00:23:02,870 all the time. um the naive of thinking that that wouldn't have an impact 1256 00:23:02,870 --> 00:23:02,880 that that wouldn't have an impact 1257 00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:04,630 that that wouldn't have an impact especially given planetary science and 1258 00:23:04,630 --> 00:23:04,640 especially given planetary science and 1259 00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:06,470 especially given planetary science and looking at other bodies in the solar 1260 00:23:06,470 --> 00:23:06,480 looking at other bodies in the solar 1261 00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:08,630 looking at other bodies in the solar system um that have dramatically 1262 00:23:08,630 --> 00:23:08,640 system um that have dramatically 1263 00:23:08,640 --> 00:23:11,190 system um that have dramatically different climates uh due to the 1264 00:23:11,190 --> 00:23:11,200 different climates uh due to the 1265 00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:13,029 different climates uh due to the atmospheric composition there. 1266 00:23:13,029 --> 00:23:13,039 atmospheric composition there. 1267 00:23:13,039 --> 00:23:14,710 atmospheric composition there. >> It's just crazy. 1268 00:23:14,710 --> 00:23:14,720 >> It's just crazy. 1269 00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:17,110 >> It's just crazy. >> And and also the fact that this was 1270 00:23:17,110 --> 00:23:17,120 >> And and also the fact that this was 1271 00:23:17,120 --> 00:23:20,070 >> And and also the fact that this was predicted way back in the 1950s and the 1272 00:23:20,070 --> 00:23:20,080 predicted way back in the 1950s and the 1273 00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:22,710 predicted way back in the 1950s and the actual figure for how much a doubling of 1274 00:23:22,710 --> 00:23:22,720 actual figure for how much a doubling of 1275 00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:25,350 actual figure for how much a doubling of CO2 would warm the atmosphere is pretty 1276 00:23:25,350 --> 00:23:25,360 CO2 would warm the atmosphere is pretty 1277 00:23:25,360 --> 00:23:27,669 CO2 would warm the atmosphere is pretty much the same figure we've got today. It 1278 00:23:27,669 --> 00:23:27,679 much the same figure we've got today. It 1279 00:23:27,679 --> 00:23:30,470 much the same figure we've got today. It was a it was I think 3.6 degrees for a 1280 00:23:30,470 --> 00:23:30,480 was a it was I think 3.6 degrees for a 1281 00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:32,549 was a it was I think 3.6 degrees for a doubling and now it's around about the 1282 00:23:32,549 --> 00:23:32,559 doubling and now it's around about the 1283 00:23:32,559 --> 00:23:35,350 doubling and now it's around about the 3° mark and we are absolutely on track. 1284 00:23:35,350 --> 00:23:35,360 3° mark and we are absolutely on track. 1285 00:23:35,360 --> 00:23:37,190 3° mark and we are absolutely on track. I mean they'll always say yeah it 1286 00:23:37,190 --> 00:23:37,200 I mean they'll always say yeah it 1287 00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:38,950 I mean they'll always say yeah it doesn't match the predictions but it 1288 00:23:38,950 --> 00:23:38,960 doesn't match the predictions but it 1289 00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:41,750 doesn't match the predictions but it does absolutely um the predictions have 1290 00:23:41,750 --> 00:23:41,760 does absolutely um the predictions have 1291 00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:43,430 does absolutely um the predictions have been really good and if someone gets a 1292 00:23:43,430 --> 00:23:43,440 been really good and if someone gets a 1293 00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:45,669 been really good and if someone gets a prediction right that is uh very good 1294 00:23:45,669 --> 00:23:45,679 prediction right that is uh very good 1295 00:23:45,679 --> 00:23:47,270 prediction right that is uh very good evidence they're on the right track. 1296 00:23:47,270 --> 00:23:47,280 evidence they're on the right track. 1297 00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:48,789 evidence they're on the right track. >> Absolutely. Yeah. No, looking at the 1298 00:23:48,789 --> 00:23:48,799 >> Absolutely. Yeah. No, looking at the 1299 00:23:48,799 --> 00:23:50,789 >> Absolutely. Yeah. No, looking at the data over the past decades it's very 1300 00:23:50,789 --> 00:23:50,799 data over the past decades it's very 1301 00:23:50,799 --> 00:23:52,549 data over the past decades it's very clear that the yeah that the predictions 1302 00:23:52,549 --> 00:23:52,559 clear that the yeah that the predictions 1303 00:23:52,559 --> 00:23:54,710 clear that the yeah that the predictions were on point. Um just to wrap up with 1304 00:23:54,710 --> 00:23:54,720 were on point. Um just to wrap up with 1305 00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:56,310 were on point. Um just to wrap up with CO2, there's this other point that I 1306 00:23:56,310 --> 00:23:56,320 CO2, there's this other point that I 1307 00:23:56,320 --> 00:23:59,270 CO2, there's this other point that I hear sometimes of about uh like uh that 1308 00:23:59,270 --> 00:23:59,280 hear sometimes of about uh like uh that 1309 00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:01,190 hear sometimes of about uh like uh that CO2 is always lagging global 1310 00:24:01,190 --> 00:24:01,200 CO2 is always lagging global 1311 00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:02,789 CO2 is always lagging global temperature. So like temperature will 1312 00:24:02,789 --> 00:24:02,799 temperature. So like temperature will 1313 00:24:02,799 --> 00:24:05,909 temperature. So like temperature will always rise and then CO2 levels rise. So 1314 00:24:05,909 --> 00:24:05,919 always rise and then CO2 levels rise. So 1315 00:24:05,919 --> 00:24:08,470 always rise and then CO2 levels rise. So uh so it can't be CO2 then from that 1316 00:24:08,470 --> 00:24:08,480 uh so it can't be CO2 then from that 1317 00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:10,070 uh so it can't be CO2 then from that like what what's that talking point 1318 00:24:10,070 --> 00:24:10,080 like what what's that talking point 1319 00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:10,549 like what what's that talking point about? 1320 00:24:10,549 --> 00:24:10,559 about? 1321 00:24:10,559 --> 00:24:12,630 about? >> Yeah. Okay. Now there's a there's an 1322 00:24:12,630 --> 00:24:12,640 >> Yeah. Okay. Now there's a there's an 1323 00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:15,430 >> Yeah. Okay. Now there's a there's an element of truth to that. Um and and I 1324 00:24:15,430 --> 00:24:15,440 element of truth to that. Um and and I 1325 00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:16,950 element of truth to that. Um and and I blame Al Gore for being rather 1326 00:24:16,950 --> 00:24:16,960 blame Al Gore for being rather 1327 00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:18,470 blame Al Gore for being rather misleading on this when he did the 1328 00:24:18,470 --> 00:24:18,480 misleading on this when he did the 1329 00:24:18,480 --> 00:24:21,750 misleading on this when he did the inconvenient truth movie uh which really 1330 00:24:21,750 --> 00:24:21,760 inconvenient truth movie uh which really 1331 00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:24,630 inconvenient truth movie uh which really started this as a polarized uh thing. 1332 00:24:24,630 --> 00:24:24,640 started this as a polarized uh thing. 1333 00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:27,029 started this as a polarized uh thing. You know, your whether you trust science 1334 00:24:27,029 --> 00:24:27,039 You know, your whether you trust science 1335 00:24:27,039 --> 00:24:28,549 You know, your whether you trust science or not depends on your political 1336 00:24:28,549 --> 00:24:28,559 or not depends on your political 1337 00:24:28,559 --> 00:24:30,470 or not depends on your political position, which seems to be only a thing 1338 00:24:30,470 --> 00:24:30,480 position, which seems to be only a thing 1339 00:24:30,480 --> 00:24:32,310 position, which seems to be only a thing in the United States rather than 1340 00:24:32,310 --> 00:24:32,320 in the United States rather than 1341 00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:34,630 in the United States rather than anywhere else in the world. But um yeah, 1342 00:24:34,630 --> 00:24:34,640 anywhere else in the world. But um yeah, 1343 00:24:34,640 --> 00:24:36,549 anywhere else in the world. But um yeah, that that was one of the things that he 1344 00:24:36,549 --> 00:24:36,559 that that was one of the things that he 1345 00:24:36,559 --> 00:24:40,230 that that was one of the things that he kind of fudged. And you have to accept 1346 00:24:40,230 --> 00:24:40,240 kind of fudged. And you have to accept 1347 00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:43,510 kind of fudged. And you have to accept that during the uh uh glacial 1348 00:24:43,510 --> 00:24:43,520 that during the uh uh glacial 1349 00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:45,909 that during the uh uh glacial deglaciation period of the current ice 1350 00:24:45,909 --> 00:24:45,919 deglaciation period of the current ice 1351 00:24:45,919 --> 00:24:50,630 deglaciation period of the current ice age, the trigger for that was the solar 1352 00:24:50,630 --> 00:24:50,640 age, the trigger for that was the solar 1353 00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:52,950 age, the trigger for that was the solar insulation at certain areas that started 1354 00:24:52,950 --> 00:24:52,960 insulation at certain areas that started 1355 00:24:52,960 --> 00:24:56,630 insulation at certain areas that started me melting glacias that caused the 1356 00:24:56,630 --> 00:24:56,640 me melting glacias that caused the 1357 00:24:56,640 --> 00:24:59,669 me melting glacias that caused the glacias to recede. Less uh reflection of 1358 00:24:59,669 --> 00:24:59,679 glacias to recede. Less uh reflection of 1359 00:24:59,679 --> 00:25:02,870 glacias to recede. Less uh reflection of sunlight, more sunlight absorbed. Now 1360 00:25:02,870 --> 00:25:02,880 sunlight, more sunlight absorbed. Now 1361 00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:06,230 sunlight, more sunlight absorbed. Now there is this phenomenon where as oceans 1362 00:25:06,230 --> 00:25:06,240 there is this phenomenon where as oceans 1363 00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:09,590 there is this phenomenon where as oceans warm they are able to dissolve less 1364 00:25:09,590 --> 00:25:09,600 warm they are able to dissolve less 1365 00:25:09,600 --> 00:25:12,149 warm they are able to dissolve less carbon dioxide. So as the oceans warm up 1366 00:25:12,149 --> 00:25:12,159 carbon dioxide. So as the oceans warm up 1367 00:25:12,159 --> 00:25:14,310 carbon dioxide. So as the oceans warm up they will release more CO2 1368 00:25:14,310 --> 00:25:14,320 they will release more CO2 1369 00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:17,029 they will release more CO2 >> and therefore as a result of warming you 1370 00:25:17,029 --> 00:25:17,039 >> and therefore as a result of warming you 1371 00:25:17,039 --> 00:25:19,190 >> and therefore as a result of warming you get an increase in carbon dioxide. That 1372 00:25:19,190 --> 00:25:19,200 get an increase in carbon dioxide. That 1373 00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:21,830 get an increase in carbon dioxide. That is certainly an effect but you still 1374 00:25:21,830 --> 00:25:21,840 is certainly an effect but you still 1375 00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:24,390 is certainly an effect but you still have to have the initial warming and the 1376 00:25:24,390 --> 00:25:24,400 have to have the initial warming and the 1377 00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:27,350 have to have the initial warming and the initial warming during glacial um 1378 00:25:27,350 --> 00:25:27,360 initial warming during glacial um 1379 00:25:27,360 --> 00:25:31,110 initial warming during glacial um deglaciation periods was the sun. That 1380 00:25:31,110 --> 00:25:31,120 deglaciation periods was the sun. That 1381 00:25:31,120 --> 00:25:33,029 deglaciation periods was the sun. That is not the case anymore. We know and 1382 00:25:33,029 --> 00:25:33,039 is not the case anymore. We know and 1383 00:25:33,039 --> 00:25:34,070 is not the case anymore. We know and here we're getting back to the argument 1384 00:25:34,070 --> 00:25:34,080 here we're getting back to the argument 1385 00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:35,669 here we're getting back to the argument of the sun. We know that that recent 1386 00:25:35,669 --> 00:25:35,679 of the sun. We know that that recent 1387 00:25:35,679 --> 00:25:37,669 of the sun. We know that that recent warming this is warming over the last 40 1388 00:25:37,669 --> 00:25:37,679 warming this is warming over the last 40 1389 00:25:37,679 --> 00:25:39,830 warming this is warming over the last 40 years has not been caused by the sun 1390 00:25:39,830 --> 00:25:39,840 years has not been caused by the sun 1391 00:25:39,840 --> 00:25:43,029 years has not been caused by the sun because solar irradiance is measured by 1392 00:25:43,029 --> 00:25:43,039 because solar irradiance is measured by 1393 00:25:43,039 --> 00:25:44,710 because solar irradiance is measured by satellite directly. There's no 1394 00:25:44,710 --> 00:25:44,720 satellite directly. There's no 1395 00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:46,070 satellite directly. There's no interference from the atmosphere or 1396 00:25:46,070 --> 00:25:46,080 interference from the atmosphere or 1397 00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:49,110 interference from the atmosphere or anything else. It's measured and it has 1398 00:25:49,110 --> 00:25:49,120 anything else. It's measured and it has 1399 00:25:49,120 --> 00:25:52,549 anything else. It's measured and it has been stable and then decreasing over the 1400 00:25:52,549 --> 00:25:52,559 been stable and then decreasing over the 1401 00:25:52,559 --> 00:25:56,710 been stable and then decreasing over the last what since 1950s last 70 years. So 1402 00:25:56,710 --> 00:25:56,720 last what since 1950s last 70 years. So 1403 00:25:56,720 --> 00:26:00,630 last what since 1950s last 70 years. So um the clearly the sun is um is not 1404 00:26:00,630 --> 00:26:00,640 um the clearly the sun is um is not 1405 00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:05,430 um the clearly the sun is um is not responsible for that. Um so I I I mean 1406 00:26:05,430 --> 00:26:05,440 responsible for that. Um so I I I mean 1407 00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:07,510 responsible for that. Um so I I I mean sorry I'm I kind of lost the point 1408 00:26:07,510 --> 00:26:07,520 sorry I'm I kind of lost the point 1409 00:26:07,520 --> 00:26:08,630 sorry I'm I kind of lost the point there. Um 1410 00:26:08,630 --> 00:26:08,640 there. Um 1411 00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:10,470 there. Um >> well no I mean I I think that is 1412 00:26:10,470 --> 00:26:10,480 >> well no I mean I I think that is 1413 00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:12,470 >> well no I mean I I think that is important like we're we're talking about 1414 00:26:12,470 --> 00:26:12,480 important like we're we're talking about 1415 00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:14,070 important like we're we're talking about you know oh this changed and then the 1416 00:26:14,070 --> 00:26:14,080 you know oh this changed and then the 1417 00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:15,430 you know oh this changed and then the CO2 changed so that 1418 00:26:15,430 --> 00:26:15,440 CO2 changed so that 1419 00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:17,430 CO2 changed so that >> Oh yeah sorry. Yeah I got I got so much 1420 00:26:17,430 --> 00:26:17,440 >> Oh yeah sorry. Yeah I got I got so much 1421 00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:20,149 >> Oh yeah sorry. Yeah I got I got so much of a tangent on I was I kind of got and 1422 00:26:20,149 --> 00:26:20,159 of a tangent on I was I kind of got and 1423 00:26:20,159 --> 00:26:21,990 of a tangent on I was I kind of got and I want sorry I'll bring it back to that 1424 00:26:21,990 --> 00:26:22,000 I want sorry I'll bring it back to that 1425 00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:24,710 I want sorry I'll bring it back to that point. So you you cannot say that the 1426 00:26:24,710 --> 00:26:24,720 point. So you you cannot say that the 1427 00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:28,149 point. So you you cannot say that the sun is what is causing the warming now 1428 00:26:28,149 --> 00:26:28,159 sun is what is causing the warming now 1429 00:26:28,159 --> 00:26:30,070 sun is what is causing the warming now that that you could certainly say that 1430 00:26:30,070 --> 00:26:30,080 that that you could certainly say that 1431 00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:32,630 that that you could certainly say that during the delaciations the sun was the 1432 00:26:32,630 --> 00:26:32,640 during the delaciations the sun was the 1433 00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:34,549 during the delaciations the sun was the principle and then carbon dioxide 1434 00:26:34,549 --> 00:26:34,559 principle and then carbon dioxide 1435 00:26:34,559 --> 00:26:36,390 principle and then carbon dioxide followed. You certainly cannot say that 1436 00:26:36,390 --> 00:26:36,400 followed. You certainly cannot say that 1437 00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:39,190 followed. You certainly cannot say that now and and obviously what's happening 1438 00:26:39,190 --> 00:26:39,200 now and and obviously what's happening 1439 00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:42,710 now and and obviously what's happening now is that a lot of the carbon dioxide 1440 00:26:42,710 --> 00:26:42,720 now is that a lot of the carbon dioxide 1441 00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:45,510 now is that a lot of the carbon dioxide that would normally be released from the 1442 00:26:45,510 --> 00:26:45,520 that would normally be released from the 1443 00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:47,990 that would normally be released from the oceans because they're warming actually 1444 00:26:47,990 --> 00:26:48,000 oceans because they're warming actually 1445 00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:49,350 oceans because they're warming actually the oceans are doing the opposite. 1446 00:26:49,350 --> 00:26:49,360 the oceans are doing the opposite. 1447 00:26:49,360 --> 00:26:51,110 the oceans are doing the opposite. They're absorbing carbon dioxide. And 1448 00:26:51,110 --> 00:26:51,120 They're absorbing carbon dioxide. And 1449 00:26:51,120 --> 00:26:52,630 They're absorbing carbon dioxide. And the reason for that is a thing called 1450 00:26:52,630 --> 00:26:52,640 the reason for that is a thing called 1451 00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:54,630 the reason for that is a thing called partial pressure. And I won't get into 1452 00:26:54,630 --> 00:26:54,640 partial pressure. And I won't get into 1453 00:26:54,640 --> 00:26:56,390 partial pressure. And I won't get into it. You know more about the physics than 1454 00:26:56,390 --> 00:26:56,400 it. You know more about the physics than 1455 00:26:56,400 --> 00:26:59,350 it. You know more about the physics than I do. But but because we are now 1456 00:26:59,350 --> 00:26:59,360 I do. But but because we are now 1457 00:26:59,360 --> 00:27:01,669 I do. But but because we are now increasing the concentration of CO2 so 1458 00:27:01,669 --> 00:27:01,679 increasing the concentration of CO2 so 1459 00:27:01,679 --> 00:27:04,310 increasing the concentration of CO2 so much in the atmosphere that is actually 1460 00:27:04,310 --> 00:27:04,320 much in the atmosphere that is actually 1461 00:27:04,320 --> 00:27:06,630 much in the atmosphere that is actually dissolving more in the oceans at a time 1462 00:27:06,630 --> 00:27:06,640 dissolving more in the oceans at a time 1463 00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:08,710 dissolving more in the oceans at a time when they should be releasing it. And 1464 00:27:08,710 --> 00:27:08,720 when they should be releasing it. And 1465 00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:12,230 when they should be releasing it. And the biggest danger for the future of uh 1466 00:27:12,230 --> 00:27:12,240 the biggest danger for the future of uh 1467 00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:16,070 the biggest danger for the future of uh global warming is that there will be a 1468 00:27:16,070 --> 00:27:16,080 global warming is that there will be a 1469 00:27:16,080 --> 00:27:18,710 global warming is that there will be a point at which the oceans will no longer 1470 00:27:18,710 --> 00:27:18,720 point at which the oceans will no longer 1471 00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:21,029 point at which the oceans will no longer be able to absorb CO2 but will have 1472 00:27:21,029 --> 00:27:21,039 be able to absorb CO2 but will have 1473 00:27:21,039 --> 00:27:22,789 be able to absorb CO2 but will have warmed so much they will start pushing 1474 00:27:22,789 --> 00:27:22,799 warmed so much they will start pushing 1475 00:27:22,799 --> 00:27:24,710 warmed so much they will start pushing it back into the atmosphere. 1476 00:27:24,710 --> 00:27:24,720 it back into the atmosphere. 1477 00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:27,029 it back into the atmosphere. >> It's a complicated thing and you can't 1478 00:27:27,029 --> 00:27:27,039 >> It's a complicated thing and you can't 1479 00:27:27,039 --> 00:27:28,789 >> It's a complicated thing and you can't look back over the last 500 million 1480 00:27:28,789 --> 00:27:28,799 look back over the last 500 million 1481 00:27:28,799 --> 00:27:32,070 look back over the last 500 million years certainly and say that CO2 lagged. 1482 00:27:32,070 --> 00:27:32,080 years certainly and say that CO2 lagged. 1483 00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:34,630 years certainly and say that CO2 lagged. It was the instigator of almost every 1484 00:27:34,630 --> 00:27:34,640 It was the instigator of almost every 1485 00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:35,990 It was the instigator of almost every warming period we've had. 1486 00:27:35,990 --> 00:27:36,000 warming period we've had. 1487 00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:38,149 warming period we've had. >> Right. Yeah. this the the the amount of 1488 00:27:38,149 --> 00:27:38,159 >> Right. Yeah. this the the the amount of 1489 00:27:38,159 --> 00:27:39,830 >> Right. Yeah. this the the the amount of CO2 in the and in the meantime 1490 00:27:39,830 --> 00:27:39,840 CO2 in the and in the meantime 1491 00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:42,070 CO2 in the and in the meantime esphyxiating all the aquatic life and 1492 00:27:42,070 --> 00:27:42,080 esphyxiating all the aquatic life and 1493 00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:43,750 esphyxiating all the aquatic life and everything but but I think that's the 1494 00:27:43,750 --> 00:27:43,760 everything but but I think that's the 1495 00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:46,230 everything but but I think that's the main problem is that just people are not 1496 00:27:46,230 --> 00:27:46,240 main problem is that just people are not 1497 00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:48,310 main problem is that just people are not especially 1498 00:27:48,310 --> 00:27:48,320 especially 1499 00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:49,750 especially didn't study science or aren't 1500 00:27:49,750 --> 00:27:49,760 didn't study science or aren't 1501 00:27:49,760 --> 00:27:51,590 didn't study science or aren't science-minded can't kind of wrap their 1502 00:27:51,590 --> 00:27:51,600 science-minded can't kind of wrap their 1503 00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:53,909 science-minded can't kind of wrap their head around sort of this dynamic system 1504 00:27:53,909 --> 00:27:53,919 head around sort of this dynamic system 1505 00:27:53,919 --> 00:27:55,029 head around sort of this dynamic system where you have all these different 1506 00:27:55,029 --> 00:27:55,039 where you have all these different 1507 00:27:55,039 --> 00:27:56,389 where you have all these different inputs and then furthermore you have 1508 00:27:56,389 --> 00:27:56,399 inputs and then furthermore you have 1509 00:27:56,399 --> 00:27:58,389 inputs and then furthermore you have feedback mechanisms. like what you're 1510 00:27:58,389 --> 00:27:58,399 feedback mechanisms. like what you're 1511 00:27:58,399 --> 00:28:00,149 feedback mechanisms. like what you're saying about the first the warming 1512 00:28:00,149 --> 00:28:00,159 saying about the first the warming 1513 00:28:00,159 --> 00:28:03,269 saying about the first the warming occurring um and then the release of 1514 00:28:03,269 --> 00:28:03,279 occurring um and then the release of 1515 00:28:03,279 --> 00:28:05,269 occurring um and then the release of right it's just like you you have this 1516 00:28:05,269 --> 00:28:05,279 right it's just like you you have this 1517 00:28:05,279 --> 00:28:07,110 right it's just like you you have this positive feedback where the warming is 1518 00:28:07,110 --> 00:28:07,120 positive feedback where the warming is 1519 00:28:07,120 --> 00:28:10,230 positive feedback where the warming is causing more warming um there's just so 1520 00:28:10,230 --> 00:28:10,240 causing more warming um there's just so 1521 00:28:10,240 --> 00:28:11,909 causing more warming um there's just so and then some negative feedback as well 1522 00:28:11,909 --> 00:28:11,919 and then some negative feedback as well 1523 00:28:11,919 --> 00:28:13,430 and then some negative feedback as well right you did mention the reverse 1524 00:28:13,430 --> 00:28:13,440 right you did mention the reverse 1525 00:28:13,440 --> 00:28:14,950 right you did mention the reverse happening as well and then there's all 1526 00:28:14,950 --> 00:28:14,960 happening as well and then there's all 1527 00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:16,950 happening as well and then there's all these different aerosols and some of the 1528 00:28:16,950 --> 00:28:16,960 these different aerosols and some of the 1529 00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:18,630 these different aerosols and some of the just like there's a lot of different 1530 00:28:18,630 --> 00:28:18,640 just like there's a lot of different 1531 00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:20,389 just like there's a lot of different factors at play so it is complicated 1532 00:28:20,389 --> 00:28:20,399 factors at play so it is complicated 1533 00:28:20,399 --> 00:28:23,990 factors at play so it is complicated right it's not so uh cut and dry but um 1534 00:28:23,990 --> 00:28:24,000 right it's not so uh cut and dry but um 1535 00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:26,630 right it's not so uh cut and dry but um but there's nothing to suggest that uh 1536 00:28:26,630 --> 00:28:26,640 but there's nothing to suggest that uh 1537 00:28:26,640 --> 00:28:28,710 but there's nothing to suggest that uh that this is slowing down in any way, 1538 00:28:28,710 --> 00:28:28,720 that this is slowing down in any way, 1539 00:28:28,720 --> 00:28:30,710 that this is slowing down in any way, shape, or form.

And I I don't want to make people to think it's so complicated they can't 1544 00:28:33,909 --> 00:28:33,919 to think it's so complicated they can't 1545 00:28:33,919 --> 00:28:36,149 to think it's so complicated they can't grasp it because look, I I'm I was a 1546 00:28:36,149 --> 00:28:36,159 grasp it because look, I I'm I was a 1547 00:28:36,159 --> 00:28:38,549 grasp it because look, I I'm I was a dunce at school and and uh if I can 1548 00:28:38,549 --> 00:28:38,559 dunce at school and and uh if I can 1549 00:28:38,559 --> 00:28:40,389 dunce at school and and uh if I can grasp it, anyone can. And I I think that 1550 00:28:40,389 --> 00:28:40,399 grasp it, anyone can. And I I think that 1551 00:28:40,399 --> 00:28:42,710 grasp it, anyone can. And I I think that was why I was so successful as a science 1552 00:28:42,710 --> 00:28:42,720 was why I was so successful as a science 1553 00:28:42,720 --> 00:28:44,070 was why I was so successful as a science journalist because half the time I 1554 00:28:44,070 --> 00:28:44,080 journalist because half the time I 1555 00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:45,350 journalist because half the time I didn't understand the things I was 1556 00:28:45,350 --> 00:28:45,360 didn't understand the things I was 1557 00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:47,110 didn't understand the things I was reporting on. I had to get them to 1558 00:28:47,110 --> 00:28:47,120 reporting on. I had to get them to 1559 00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:49,430 reporting on. I had to get them to explain it to me in really simple terms 1560 00:28:49,430 --> 00:28:49,440 explain it to me in really simple terms 1561 00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:51,430 explain it to me in really simple terms and that way I could explain it to the 1562 00:28:51,430 --> 00:28:51,440 and that way I could explain it to the 1563 00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:53,190 and that way I could explain it to the readership and they would understand it. 1564 00:28:53,190 --> 00:28:53,200 readership and they would understand it. 1565 00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:55,909 readership and they would understand it. And um I I think that's that's the goal 1566 00:28:55,909 --> 00:28:55,919 And um I I think that's that's the goal 1567 00:28:55,919 --> 00:28:57,430 And um I I think that's that's the goal of science communicators like us, I 1568 00:28:57,430 --> 00:28:57,440 of science communicators like us, I 1569 00:28:57,440 --> 00:28:59,669 of science communicators like us, I think, is to make this accessible for 1570 00:28:59,669 --> 00:28:59,679 think, is to make this accessible for 1571 00:28:59,679 --> 00:29:01,669 think, is to make this accessible for people. And 1572 00:29:01,669 --> 00:29:01,679 people. And 1573 00:29:01,679 --> 00:29:04,389 people. And >> once you do understand it, then I I 1574 00:29:04,389 --> 00:29:04,399 >> once you do understand it, then I I 1575 00:29:04,399 --> 00:29:07,029 >> once you do understand it, then I I think you you can then go out and 1576 00:29:07,029 --> 00:29:07,039 think you you can then go out and 1577 00:29:07,039 --> 00:29:09,909 think you you can then go out and confront these um the these conspiracy 1578 00:29:09,909 --> 00:29:09,919 confront these um the these conspiracy 1579 00:29:09,919 --> 00:29:11,269 confront these um the these conspiracy theorists on their own terms. 1580 00:29:11,269 --> 00:29:11,279 theorists on their own terms. 1581 00:29:11,279 --> 00:29:12,950 theorists on their own terms. >> Absolutely. Yeah. And I love the method 1582 00:29:12,950 --> 00:29:12,960 >> Absolutely. Yeah. And I love the method 1583 00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:15,110 >> Absolutely. Yeah. And I love the method of going socratic and just forcing them 1584 00:29:15,110 --> 00:29:15,120 of going socratic and just forcing them 1585 00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:18,310 of going socratic and just forcing them to humiliate themselves. But um so let's 1586 00:29:18,310 --> 00:29:18,320 to humiliate themselves. But um so let's 1587 00:29:18,320 --> 00:29:20,710 to humiliate themselves. But um so let's let's help given that we want the 1588 00:29:20,710 --> 00:29:20,720 let's help given that we want the 1589 00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:22,789 let's help given that we want the viewers to kind of understand how 1590 00:29:22,789 --> 00:29:22,799 viewers to kind of understand how 1591 00:29:22,799 --> 00:29:24,870 viewers to kind of understand how climate science works. There's all the 1592 00:29:24,870 --> 00:29:24,880 climate science works. There's all the 1593 00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:26,789 climate science works. There's all the talk about you know oh all of these 1594 00:29:26,789 --> 00:29:26,799 talk about you know oh all of these 1595 00:29:26,799 --> 00:29:27,990 talk about you know oh all of these projections they're all based on 1596 00:29:27,990 --> 00:29:28,000 projections they're all based on 1597 00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:29,669 projections they're all based on computer models. It's not based on any 1598 00:29:29,669 --> 00:29:29,679 computer models. It's not based on any 1599 00:29:29,679 --> 00:29:31,909 computer models. It's not based on any kind of data. It's all unreliable. What 1600 00:29:31,909 --> 00:29:31,919 kind of data. It's all unreliable. What 1601 00:29:31,919 --> 00:29:33,750 kind of data. It's all unreliable. What like how are climate scientists 1602 00:29:33,750 --> 00:29:33,760 like how are climate scientists 1603 00:29:33,760 --> 00:29:35,430 like how are climate scientists gathering data? How are the projections 1604 00:29:35,430 --> 00:29:35,440 gathering data? How are the projections 1605 00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:37,430 gathering data? How are the projections made? How do we know they're reliable? I 1606 00:29:37,430 --> 00:29:37,440 made? How do we know they're reliable? I 1607 00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:38,950 made? How do we know they're reliable? I mean we mentioned that the that many of 1608 00:29:38,950 --> 00:29:38,960 mean we mentioned that the that many of 1609 00:29:38,960 --> 00:29:41,430 mean we mentioned that the that many of the predictions have been accurate. So 1610 00:29:41,430 --> 00:29:41,440 the predictions have been accurate. So 1611 00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:43,590 the predictions have been accurate. So what just like the the the the quick 1612 00:29:43,590 --> 00:29:43,600 what just like the the the the quick 1613 00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:45,269 what just like the the the the quick version of what are we doing? How are we 1614 00:29:45,269 --> 00:29:45,279 version of what are we doing? How are we 1615 00:29:45,279 --> 00:29:46,549 version of what are we doing? How are we doing it? 1616 00:29:46,549 --> 00:29:46,559 doing it? 1617 00:29:46,559 --> 00:29:48,870 doing it? Okay. I I mean the easiest argument 1618 00:29:48,870 --> 00:29:48,880 Okay. I I mean the easiest argument 1619 00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:50,950 Okay. I I mean the easiest argument against this it's all computers. Well, 1620 00:29:50,950 --> 00:29:50,960 against this it's all computers. Well, 1621 00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:53,990 against this it's all computers. Well, how come this this uh theory has been 1622 00:29:53,990 --> 00:29:54,000 how come this this uh theory has been 1623 00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:55,909 how come this this uh theory has been around the hypothesis has been around 1624 00:29:55,909 --> 00:29:55,919 around the hypothesis has been around 1625 00:29:55,919 --> 00:29:58,310 around the hypothesis has been around since the 1890s. There were no computers 1626 00:29:58,310 --> 00:29:58,320 since the 1890s. There were no computers 1627 00:29:58,320 --> 00:30:00,070 since the 1890s. There were no computers back then. There were no computers in 1628 00:30:00,070 --> 00:30:00,080 back then. There were no computers in 1629 00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:02,630 back then. There were no computers in the 1950s when it was consolidated 1630 00:30:02,630 --> 00:30:02,640 the 1950s when it was consolidated 1631 00:30:02,640 --> 00:30:05,350 the 1950s when it was consolidated consolidated into a theory. Even in the 1632 00:30:05,350 --> 00:30:05,360 consolidated into a theory. Even in the 1633 00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:07,110 consolidated into a theory. Even in the 1960 none of this was done with 1634 00:30:07,110 --> 00:30:07,120 1960 none of this was done with 1635 00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:09,669 1960 none of this was done with computers. This was all done with simple 1636 00:30:09,669 --> 00:30:09,679 computers. This was all done with simple 1637 00:30:09,679 --> 00:30:13,110 computers. This was all done with simple physics and geology. it and and the 1638 00:30:13,110 --> 00:30:13,120 physics and geology. it and and the 1639 00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:16,789 physics and geology. it and and the physics was the theory that um when they 1640 00:30:16,789 --> 00:30:16,799 physics was the theory that um when they 1641 00:30:16,799 --> 00:30:21,110 physics was the theory that um when they looked at the effect of CO2 um as as a 1642 00:30:21,110 --> 00:30:21,120 looked at the effect of CO2 um as as a 1643 00:30:21,120 --> 00:30:23,350 looked at the effect of CO2 um as as a um you know absorbing and remitting 1644 00:30:23,350 --> 00:30:23,360 um you know absorbing and remitting 1645 00:30:23,360 --> 00:30:25,269 um you know absorbing and remitting radiation and so on they can measure 1646 00:30:25,269 --> 00:30:25,279 radiation and so on they can measure 1647 00:30:25,279 --> 00:30:27,269 radiation and so on they can measure that in a laboratory you can do a 1648 00:30:27,269 --> 00:30:27,279 that in a laboratory you can do a 1649 00:30:27,279 --> 00:30:29,350 that in a laboratory you can do a theoretical calculation that's all 1650 00:30:29,350 --> 00:30:29,360 theoretical calculation that's all 1651 00:30:29,360 --> 00:30:31,990 theoretical calculation that's all theory but then when they actually got 1652 00:30:31,990 --> 00:30:32,000 theory but then when they actually got 1653 00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:33,909 theory but then when they actually got down and and started measuring it and 1654 00:30:33,909 --> 00:30:33,919 down and and started measuring it and 1655 00:30:33,919 --> 00:30:36,549 down and and started measuring it and looking at the past that was confirmed 1656 00:30:36,549 --> 00:30:36,559 looking at the past that was confirmed 1657 00:30:36,559 --> 00:30:38,389 looking at the past that was confirmed and that was all without computers at 1658 00:30:38,389 --> 00:30:38,399 and that was all without computers at 1659 00:30:38,399 --> 00:30:41,590 and that was all without computers at all. uh all computers are doing are just 1660 00:30:41,590 --> 00:30:41,600 all. uh all computers are doing are just 1661 00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:43,830 all. uh all computers are doing are just speeding up the process. I I guess the 1662 00:30:43,830 --> 00:30:43,840 speeding up the process. I I guess the 1663 00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:46,470 speeding up the process. I I guess the way to look at this is the theory that 1664 00:30:46,470 --> 00:30:46,480 way to look at this is the theory that 1665 00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:49,750 way to look at this is the theory that the sun is the center of the universe. 1666 00:30:49,750 --> 00:30:49,760 the sun is the center of the universe. 1667 00:30:49,760 --> 00:30:51,430 the sun is the center of the universe. So hang on the center of the solar 1668 00:30:51,430 --> 00:30:51,440 So hang on the center of the solar 1669 00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:54,630 So hang on the center of the solar system has been around since um 1670 00:30:54,630 --> 00:30:54,640 system has been around since um 1671 00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:56,710 system has been around since um capernicus in 16th century you could 1672 00:30:56,710 --> 00:30:56,720 capernicus in 16th century you could 1673 00:30:56,720 --> 00:30:59,110 capernicus in 16th century you could say. Now these days when you're working 1674 00:30:59,110 --> 00:30:59,120 say. Now these days when you're working 1675 00:30:59,120 --> 00:31:01,830 say. Now these days when you're working out planetary motions the ancient Greeks 1676 00:31:01,830 --> 00:31:01,840 out planetary motions the ancient Greeks 1677 00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:03,830 out planetary motions the ancient Greeks could do it without computers. We are 1678 00:31:03,830 --> 00:31:03,840 could do it without computers. We are 1679 00:31:03,840 --> 00:31:06,230 could do it without computers. We are using computers today you know to 1680 00:31:06,230 --> 00:31:06,240 using computers today you know to 1681 00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:08,630 using computers today you know to fine-tune it but they're not necessary 1682 00:31:08,630 --> 00:31:08,640 fine-tune it but they're not necessary 1683 00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:11,350 fine-tune it but they're not necessary to understand the basic principle. All 1684 00:31:11,350 --> 00:31:11,360 to understand the basic principle. All 1685 00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:13,269 to understand the basic principle. All computers are doing with climate change, 1686 00:31:13,269 --> 00:31:13,279 computers are doing with climate change, 1687 00:31:13,279 --> 00:31:14,950 computers are doing with climate change, with plate tectonics, with anything else 1688 00:31:14,950 --> 00:31:14,960 with plate tectonics, with anything else 1689 00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:17,510 with plate tectonics, with anything else in the modern world is just refining it, 1690 00:31:17,510 --> 00:31:17,520 in the modern world is just refining it, 1691 00:31:17,520 --> 00:31:19,190 in the modern world is just refining it, getting it a little bit more accurate, 1692 00:31:19,190 --> 00:31:19,200 getting it a little bit more accurate, 1693 00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:20,950 getting it a little bit more accurate, >> an order of magnitude more precision, 1694 00:31:20,950 --> 00:31:20,960 >> an order of magnitude more precision, 1695 00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:23,350 >> an order of magnitude more precision, but the the principles are the same. 1696 00:31:23,350 --> 00:31:23,360 but the the principles are the same. 1697 00:31:23,360 --> 00:31:25,430 but the the principles are the same. >> Yeah. It's like saying, well, okay, we 1698 00:31:25,430 --> 00:31:25,440 >> Yeah. It's like saying, well, okay, we 1699 00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:27,430 >> Yeah. It's like saying, well, okay, we know that global warming is caused by 1700 00:31:27,430 --> 00:31:27,440 know that global warming is caused by 1701 00:31:27,440 --> 00:31:30,470 know that global warming is caused by carbon dioxide and uh we know that 1702 00:31:30,470 --> 00:31:30,480 carbon dioxide and uh we know that 1703 00:31:30,480 --> 00:31:32,470 carbon dioxide and uh we know that climate change is going to result. Where 1704 00:31:32,470 --> 00:31:32,480 climate change is going to result. Where 1705 00:31:32,480 --> 00:31:35,269 climate change is going to result. Where exactly is that change going to be? How 1706 00:31:35,269 --> 00:31:35,279 exactly is that change going to be? How 1707 00:31:35,279 --> 00:31:36,789 exactly is that change going to be? How much drier is this going to get? How 1708 00:31:36,789 --> 00:31:36,799 much drier is this going to get? How 1709 00:31:36,799 --> 00:31:38,789 much drier is this going to get? How much wetter is that area going to get? 1710 00:31:38,789 --> 00:31:38,799 much wetter is that area going to get? 1711 00:31:38,799 --> 00:31:42,470 much wetter is that area going to get? what's the wind um speeds and and the 1712 00:31:42,470 --> 00:31:42,480 what's the wind um speeds and and the 1713 00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:44,230 what's the wind um speeds and and the circulation going to be like? That's 1714 00:31:44,230 --> 00:31:44,240 circulation going to be like? That's 1715 00:31:44,240 --> 00:31:47,830 circulation going to be like? That's that is helped with computer models. 1716 00:31:47,830 --> 00:31:47,840 that is helped with computer models. 1717 00:31:47,840 --> 00:31:49,830 that is helped with computer models. >> But so so then let's let's dig it a 1718 00:31:49,830 --> 00:31:49,840 >> But so so then let's let's dig it a 1719 00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:51,669 >> But so so then let's let's dig it a little bit into some of the the the 1720 00:31:51,669 --> 00:31:51,679 little bit into some of the the the 1721 00:31:51,679 --> 00:31:53,990 little bit into some of the the the physical data. Um what what are some of 1722 00:31:53,990 --> 00:31:54,000 physical data. Um what what are some of 1723 00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:56,789 physical data. Um what what are some of the things that we're looking at? 1724 00:31:56,789 --> 00:31:56,799 the things that we're looking at? 1725 00:31:56,799 --> 00:31:59,909 the things that we're looking at? >> Yeah. So I mean the best uh estimates at 1726 00:31:59,909 --> 00:31:59,919 >> Yeah. So I mean the best uh estimates at 1727 00:31:59,919 --> 00:32:01,990 >> Yeah. So I mean the best uh estimates at the moment and this is um where they all 1728 00:32:01,990 --> 00:32:02,000 the moment and this is um where they all 1729 00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:04,789 the moment and this is um where they all cluster. uh everything's got a margin of 1730 00:32:04,789 --> 00:32:04,799 cluster. uh everything's got a margin of 1731 00:32:04,799 --> 00:32:06,870 cluster. uh everything's got a margin of error and the best estimates at the 1732 00:32:06,870 --> 00:32:06,880 error and the best estimates at the 1733 00:32:06,880 --> 00:32:08,870 error and the best estimates at the moment is that a double doubling of of 1734 00:32:08,870 --> 00:32:08,880 moment is that a double doubling of of 1735 00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:11,830 moment is that a double doubling of of carbon dioxide will lead to around about 1736 00:32:11,830 --> 00:32:11,840 carbon dioxide will lead to around about 1737 00:32:11,840 --> 00:32:14,630 carbon dioxide will lead to around about a 3°ree centigrade increase in warming. 1738 00:32:14,630 --> 00:32:14,640 a 3°ree centigrade increase in warming. 1739 00:32:14,640 --> 00:32:17,269 a 3°ree centigrade increase in warming. This is a what's called an equilibrium 1740 00:32:17,269 --> 00:32:17,279 This is a what's called an equilibrium 1741 00:32:17,279 --> 00:32:20,950 This is a what's called an equilibrium temperature because uh as you mentioned 1742 00:32:20,950 --> 00:32:20,960 temperature because uh as you mentioned 1743 00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:23,509 temperature because uh as you mentioned when you increase carbon dioxide you 1744 00:32:23,509 --> 00:32:23,519 when you increase carbon dioxide you 1745 00:32:23,519 --> 00:32:25,509 when you increase carbon dioxide you also have other factors which amplify 1746 00:32:25,509 --> 00:32:25,519 also have other factors which amplify 1747 00:32:25,519 --> 00:32:27,110 also have other factors which amplify that warming. So the carbon dioxide 1748 00:32:27,110 --> 00:32:27,120 that warming. So the carbon dioxide 1749 00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:30,230 that warming. So the carbon dioxide itself will cause around about 1.1 1750 00:32:30,230 --> 00:32:30,240 itself will cause around about 1.1 1751 00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:32,950 itself will cause around about 1.1 degree of warming for a doubling. But 1752 00:32:32,950 --> 00:32:32,960 degree of warming for a doubling. But 1753 00:32:32,960 --> 00:32:36,149 degree of warming for a doubling. But it's the it's the amplification of that 1754 00:32:36,149 --> 00:32:36,159 it's the it's the amplification of that 1755 00:32:36,159 --> 00:32:38,310 it's the it's the amplification of that by the atmosphere for example being able 1756 00:32:38,310 --> 00:32:38,320 by the atmosphere for example being able 1757 00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:40,470 by the atmosphere for example being able to hold more water vapor and water water 1758 00:32:40,470 --> 00:32:40,480 to hold more water vapor and water water 1759 00:32:40,480 --> 00:32:41,990 to hold more water vapor and water water vapor is an incredibly powerful 1760 00:32:41,990 --> 00:32:42,000 vapor is an incredibly powerful 1761 00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:44,870 vapor is an incredibly powerful greenhouse gas. Um and that will amplify 1762 00:32:44,870 --> 00:32:44,880 greenhouse gas. Um and that will amplify 1763 00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:47,590 greenhouse gas. Um and that will amplify the warming and that will cause you know 1764 00:32:47,590 --> 00:32:47,600 the warming and that will cause you know 1765 00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:50,310 the warming and that will cause you know release of methane and other things from 1766 00:32:50,310 --> 00:32:50,320 release of methane and other things from 1767 00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:53,029 release of methane and other things from arctic perafrost and and other offense 1768 00:32:53,029 --> 00:32:53,039 arctic perafrost and and other offense 1769 00:32:53,039 --> 00:32:55,430 arctic perafrost and and other offense and also one of the most crucial is the 1770 00:32:55,430 --> 00:32:55,440 and also one of the most crucial is the 1771 00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:57,029 and also one of the most crucial is the melting 1772 00:32:57,029 --> 00:32:57,039 melting 1773 00:32:57,039 --> 00:32:59,669 melting ice which is going to reveal dark ocean 1774 00:32:59,669 --> 00:32:59,679 ice which is going to reveal dark ocean 1775 00:32:59,679 --> 00:33:02,310 ice which is going to reveal dark ocean water and dark land which will reduce 1776 00:33:02,310 --> 00:33:02,320 water and dark land which will reduce 1777 00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:05,029 water and dark land which will reduce the earth's reflectivity. So ultimately 1778 00:33:05,029 --> 00:33:05,039 the earth's reflectivity. So ultimately 1779 00:33:05,039 --> 00:33:07,750 the earth's reflectivity. So ultimately that 1.1 will translate into basically a 1780 00:33:07,750 --> 00:33:07,760 that 1.1 will translate into basically a 1781 00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:11,029 that 1.1 will translate into basically a threederee centigrade mode of warming. 1782 00:33:11,029 --> 00:33:11,039 threederee centigrade mode of warming. 1783 00:33:11,039 --> 00:33:12,630 threederee centigrade mode of warming. And people say, "Yeah, but this is way 1784 00:33:12,630 --> 00:33:12,640 And people say, "Yeah, but this is way 1785 00:33:12,640 --> 00:33:13,990 And people say, "Yeah, but this is way into the future." But the thing is we 1786 00:33:13,990 --> 00:33:14,000 into the future." But the thing is we 1787 00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:15,269 into the future." But the thing is we are beginning to see the effects now. 1788 00:33:15,269 --> 00:33:15,279 are beginning to see the effects now. 1789 00:33:15,279 --> 00:33:16,870 are beginning to see the effects now. And I think the canary in the coal mine 1790 00:33:16,870 --> 00:33:16,880 And I think the canary in the coal mine 1791 00:33:16,880 --> 00:33:21,669 And I think the canary in the coal mine for me is the glaciers because uh they 1792 00:33:21,669 --> 00:33:21,679 for me is the glaciers because uh they 1793 00:33:21,679 --> 00:33:25,110 for me is the glaciers because uh they are retreating so fast and so so quickly 1794 00:33:25,110 --> 00:33:25,120 are retreating so fast and so so quickly 1795 00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:28,070 are retreating so fast and so so quickly that either they are melting uh to the 1796 00:33:28,070 --> 00:33:28,080 that either they are melting uh to the 1797 00:33:28,080 --> 00:33:30,070 that either they are melting uh to the extent that in the spring they are 1798 00:33:30,070 --> 00:33:30,080 extent that in the spring they are 1799 00:33:30,080 --> 00:33:32,470 extent that in the spring they are flooding uh the rivers, flooding 1800 00:33:32,470 --> 00:33:32,480 flooding uh the rivers, flooding 1801 00:33:32,480 --> 00:33:35,029 flooding uh the rivers, flooding agricultural areas, uh eroding river 1802 00:33:35,029 --> 00:33:35,039 agricultural areas, uh eroding river 1803 00:33:35,039 --> 00:33:37,509 agricultural areas, uh eroding river banks and so on. or they've been 1804 00:33:37,509 --> 00:33:37,519 banks and so on. or they've been 1805 00:33:37,519 --> 00:33:39,509 banks and so on. or they've been depleted so much that they're causing 1806 00:33:39,509 --> 00:33:39,519 depleted so much that they're causing 1807 00:33:39,519 --> 00:33:41,669 depleted so much that they're causing water shortages. Um, and that's 1808 00:33:41,669 --> 00:33:41,679 water shortages. Um, and that's 1809 00:33:41,679 --> 00:33:42,950 water shortages. Um, and that's happening, for example, in places like 1810 00:33:42,950 --> 00:33:42,960 happening, for example, in places like 1811 00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:44,789 happening, for example, in places like Bolivia. And we're already seeing that. 1812 00:33:44,789 --> 00:33:44,799 Bolivia. And we're already seeing that. 1813 00:33:44,799 --> 00:33:47,190 Bolivia. And we're already seeing that. We are even, and never thought I would 1814 00:33:47,190 --> 00:33:47,200 We are even, and never thought I would 1815 00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:49,590 We are even, and never thought I would see this, but but we're even seeing real 1816 00:33:49,590 --> 00:33:49,600 see this, but but we're even seeing real 1817 00:33:49,600 --> 00:33:51,669 see this, but but we're even seeing real estate in Miami being affected. Not 1818 00:33:51,669 --> 00:33:51,679 estate in Miami being affected. Not 1819 00:33:51,679 --> 00:33:53,269 estate in Miami being affected. Not because sea levels are going to flood 1820 00:33:53,269 --> 00:33:53,279 because sea levels are going to flood 1821 00:33:53,279 --> 00:33:55,830 because sea levels are going to flood Miami, but because the king tides that 1822 00:33:55,830 --> 00:33:55,840 Miami, but because the king tides that 1823 00:33:55,840 --> 00:33:57,750 Miami, but because the king tides that occasionally come are going to get worse 1824 00:33:57,750 --> 00:33:57,760 occasionally come are going to get worse 1825 00:33:57,760 --> 00:33:59,269 occasionally come are going to get worse in certain areas. And they're looking 1826 00:33:59,269 --> 00:33:59,279 in certain areas. And they're looking 1827 00:33:59,279 --> 00:34:01,830 in certain areas. And they're looking ahead now 50 years. You're getting a 25 1828 00:34:01,830 --> 00:34:01,840 ahead now 50 years. You're getting a 25 1829 00:34:01,840 --> 00:34:04,389 ahead now 50 years. You're getting a 25 year mortgage on a house. you're now 1830 00:34:04,389 --> 00:34:04,399 year mortgage on a house. you're now 1831 00:34:04,399 --> 00:34:06,710 year mortgage on a house. you're now beginning to look in generational terms 1832 00:34:06,710 --> 00:34:06,720 beginning to look in generational terms 1833 00:34:06,720 --> 00:34:09,669 beginning to look in generational terms at what global warming will do. So I 1834 00:34:09,669 --> 00:34:09,679 at what global warming will do. So I 1835 00:34:09,679 --> 00:34:11,349 at what global warming will do. So I never use the argument that we're going 1836 00:34:11,349 --> 00:34:11,359 never use the argument that we're going 1837 00:34:11,359 --> 00:34:13,510 never use the argument that we're going to, you know, the whole human race is 1838 00:34:13,510 --> 00:34:13,520 to, you know, the whole human race is 1839 00:34:13,520 --> 00:34:15,349 to, you know, the whole human race is going to be extinct. That's Yeah, it's 1840 00:34:15,349 --> 00:34:15,359 going to be extinct. That's Yeah, it's 1841 00:34:15,359 --> 00:34:15,909 going to be extinct. That's Yeah, it's speculation, 1842 00:34:15,909 --> 00:34:15,919 speculation, 1843 00:34:15,919 --> 00:34:16,629 speculation, >> right? 1844 00:34:16,629 --> 00:34:16,639 >> right? 1845 00:34:16,639 --> 00:34:18,230 >> right? >> And and it's pointless even to talk 1846 00:34:18,230 --> 00:34:18,240 >> And and it's pointless even to talk 1847 00:34:18,240 --> 00:34:20,470 >> And and it's pointless even to talk about it. But you talk about the 1848 00:34:20,470 --> 00:34:20,480 about it. But you talk about the 1849 00:34:20,480 --> 00:34:22,230 about it. But you talk about the economics, you talk about whether 1850 00:34:22,230 --> 00:34:22,240 economics, you talk about whether 1851 00:34:22,240 --> 00:34:23,990 economics, you talk about whether people's jobs will be at stake or their 1852 00:34:23,990 --> 00:34:24,000 people's jobs will be at stake or their 1853 00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:25,750 people's jobs will be at stake or their kids' jobs or whether they have to pay 1854 00:34:25,750 --> 00:34:25,760 kids' jobs or whether they have to pay 1855 00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:28,629 kids' jobs or whether they have to pay more in taxes and you start explaining 1856 00:34:28,629 --> 00:34:28,639 more in taxes and you start explaining 1857 00:34:28,639 --> 00:34:31,270 more in taxes and you start explaining where why that is true. people will 1858 00:34:31,270 --> 00:34:31,280 where why that is true. people will 1859 00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:33,190 where why that is true. people will start uh listening to that, 1860 00:34:33,190 --> 00:34:33,200 start uh listening to that, 1861 00:34:33,200 --> 00:34:35,109 start uh listening to that, >> right?

We're talking about sea level 1880 00:34:53,589 --> 00:34:53,599 Right? We're talking about sea level 1881 00:34:53,599 --> 00:34:55,589 Right? We're talking about sea level rising. We're talking about uh ocean 1882 00:34:55,589 --> 00:34:55,599 rising. We're talking about uh ocean 1883 00:34:55,599 --> 00:34:57,430 rising. We're talking about uh ocean currents being disrupted. we're talking 1884 00:34:57,430 --> 00:34:57,440 currents being disrupted. we're talking 1885 00:34:57,440 --> 00:34:59,190 currents being disrupted. we're talking like what are some of the things that 1886 00:34:59,190 --> 00:34:59,200 like what are some of the things that 1887 00:34:59,200 --> 00:35:00,870 like what are some of the things that they're not thinking about in terms of 1888 00:35:00,870 --> 00:35:00,880 they're not thinking about in terms of 1889 00:35:00,880 --> 00:35:02,950 they're not thinking about in terms of what this damage will be with this? 1890 00:35:02,950 --> 00:35:02,960 what this damage will be with this? 1891 00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:04,310 what this damage will be with this? >> If you want to go further down the 1892 00:35:04,310 --> 00:35:04,320 >> If you want to go further down the 1893 00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:05,829 >> If you want to go further down the track, I mean, one of the the big 1894 00:35:05,829 --> 00:35:05,839 track, I mean, one of the the big 1895 00:35:05,839 --> 00:35:08,550 track, I mean, one of the the big problems is when we talk about 3 degrees 1896 00:35:08,550 --> 00:35:08,560 problems is when we talk about 3 degrees 1897 00:35:08,560 --> 00:35:10,870 problems is when we talk about 3 degrees of of warming, um, of course, we're 1898 00:35:10,870 --> 00:35:10,880 of of warming, um, of course, we're 1899 00:35:10,880 --> 00:35:13,430 of of warming, um, of course, we're talking Celsius and one of the big 1900 00:35:13,430 --> 00:35:13,440 talking Celsius and one of the big 1901 00:35:13,440 --> 00:35:15,030 talking Celsius and one of the big problems in the United States is you 1902 00:35:15,030 --> 00:35:15,040 problems in the United States is you 1903 00:35:15,040 --> 00:35:16,710 problems in the United States is you guys are still using this, right? 1904 00:35:16,710 --> 00:35:16,720 guys are still using this, right? 1905 00:35:16,720 --> 00:35:19,910 guys are still using this, right? >> I don't know when this Fahrenheit thing 1906 00:35:19,910 --> 00:35:19,920 >> I don't know when this Fahrenheit thing 1907 00:35:19,920 --> 00:35:21,190 >> I don't know when this Fahrenheit thing or fatter degrees. 1908 00:35:21,190 --> 00:35:21,200 or fatter degrees. 1909 00:35:21,200 --> 00:35:23,030 or fatter degrees. >> It's actually bigger. I I wish we would 1910 00:35:23,030 --> 00:35:23,040 >> It's actually bigger. I I wish we would 1911 00:35:23,040 --> 00:35:24,790 >> It's actually bigger. I I wish we would use Fahrenheit and more Americans might 1912 00:35:24,790 --> 00:35:24,800 use Fahrenheit and more Americans might 1913 00:35:24,800 --> 00:35:26,550 use Fahrenheit and more Americans might wake up and say, "Wow, actually that's 1914 00:35:26,550 --> 00:35:26,560 wake up and say, "Wow, actually that's 1915 00:35:26,560 --> 00:35:28,550 wake up and say, "Wow, actually that's quite a large amount." But uh I can't 1916 00:35:28,550 --> 00:35:28,560 quite a large amount." But uh I can't 1917 00:35:28,560 --> 00:35:30,310 quite a large amount." But uh I can't remember what the figure of 3 degrees 1918 00:35:30,310 --> 00:35:30,320 remember what the figure of 3 degrees 1919 00:35:30,320 --> 00:35:32,710 remember what the figure of 3 degrees centiggra is. I think at 5.4 Fahrenheit, 1920 00:35:32,710 --> 00:35:32,720 centiggra is. I think at 5.4 Fahrenheit, 1921 00:35:32,720 --> 00:35:34,710 centiggra is. I think at 5.4 Fahrenheit, >> something like that. 1922 00:35:34,710 --> 00:35:34,720 >> something like that. 1923 00:35:34,720 --> 00:35:37,270 >> something like that. >> Even you might notice that on a on a 1924 00:35:37,270 --> 00:35:37,280 >> Even you might notice that on a on a 1925 00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:38,630 >> Even you might notice that on a on a warm day, you'd notice the difference, 1926 00:35:38,630 --> 00:35:38,640 warm day, you'd notice the difference, 1927 00:35:38,640 --> 00:35:40,550 warm day, you'd notice the difference, but that's not the crucial thing. The 1928 00:35:40,550 --> 00:35:40,560 but that's not the crucial thing. The 1929 00:35:40,560 --> 00:35:43,190 but that's not the crucial thing. The crucial thing is that plants notice it. 1930 00:35:43,190 --> 00:35:43,200 crucial thing is that plants notice it. 1931 00:35:43,200 --> 00:35:46,710 crucial thing is that plants notice it. And um we the the ocean definitely 1932 00:35:46,710 --> 00:35:46,720 And um we the the ocean definitely 1933 00:35:46,720 --> 00:35:49,109 And um we the the ocean definitely notices it because it's not just the 1934 00:35:49,109 --> 00:35:49,119 notices it because it's not just the 1935 00:35:49,119 --> 00:35:50,870 notices it because it's not just the melting glaciers and the ice 1936 00:35:50,870 --> 00:35:50,880 melting glaciers and the ice 1937 00:35:50,880 --> 00:35:52,390 melting glaciers and the ice >> thermal expansion. 1938 00:35:52,390 --> 00:35:52,400 >> thermal expansion. 1939 00:35:52,400 --> 00:35:53,990 >> thermal expansion. >> It's exactly right. It's thermal 1940 00:35:53,990 --> 00:35:54,000 >> It's exactly right. It's thermal 1941 00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:56,710 >> It's exactly right. It's thermal expansion. As you warm water, it expands 1942 00:35:56,710 --> 00:35:56,720 expansion. As you warm water, it expands 1943 00:35:56,720 --> 00:35:59,109 expansion. As you warm water, it expands and that is going to be the biggest 1944 00:35:59,109 --> 00:35:59,119 and that is going to be the biggest 1945 00:35:59,119 --> 00:36:01,030 and that is going to be the biggest thing that over time is going to start 1946 00:36:01,030 --> 00:36:01,040 thing that over time is going to start 1947 00:36:01,040 --> 00:36:03,589 thing that over time is going to start increasing it. Now we have set our 1948 00:36:03,589 --> 00:36:03,599 increasing it. Now we have set our 1949 00:36:03,599 --> 00:36:05,349 increasing it. Now we have set our economy up and again I want to talk 1950 00:36:05,349 --> 00:36:05,359 economy up and again I want to talk 1951 00:36:05,359 --> 00:36:06,950 economy up and again I want to talk economy because that's what people are 1952 00:36:06,950 --> 00:36:06,960 economy because that's what people are 1953 00:36:06,960 --> 00:36:09,750 economy because that's what people are interested in. we we've set the economy 1954 00:36:09,750 --> 00:36:09,760 interested in. we we've set the economy 1955 00:36:09,760 --> 00:36:13,349 interested in. we we've set the economy up to uh function in the world that 1956 00:36:13,349 --> 00:36:13,359 up to uh function in the world that 1957 00:36:13,359 --> 00:36:16,550 up to uh function in the world that we've had for the last 150 years. Um and 1958 00:36:16,550 --> 00:36:16,560 we've had for the last 150 years. Um and 1959 00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:17,990 we've had for the last 150 years. Um and that's been the climate that we've had 1960 00:36:17,990 --> 00:36:18,000 that's been the climate that we've had 1961 00:36:18,000 --> 00:36:19,750 that's been the climate that we've had for the last 150 years since the 1962 00:36:19,750 --> 00:36:19,760 for the last 150 years since the 1963 00:36:19,760 --> 00:36:22,390 for the last 150 years since the invention of electricity and the motorc 1964 00:36:22,390 --> 00:36:22,400 invention of electricity and the motorc 1965 00:36:22,400 --> 00:36:24,550 invention of electricity and the motorc car and telephone and everything else, 1966 00:36:24,550 --> 00:36:24,560 car and telephone and everything else, 1967 00:36:24,560 --> 00:36:26,310 car and telephone and everything else, cinematography, that's the modern age 1968 00:36:26,310 --> 00:36:26,320 cinematography, that's the modern age 1969 00:36:26,320 --> 00:36:27,910 cinematography, that's the modern age that we live in. So all our 1970 00:36:27,910 --> 00:36:27,920 that we live in. So all our 1971 00:36:27,920 --> 00:36:30,710 that we live in. So all our infrastructure, our port infrastructure 1972 00:36:30,710 --> 00:36:30,720 infrastructure, our port infrastructure 1973 00:36:30,720 --> 00:36:34,069 infrastructure, our port infrastructure um has been set to certain sea levels. 1974 00:36:34,069 --> 00:36:34,079 um has been set to certain sea levels. 1975 00:36:34,079 --> 00:36:37,270 um has been set to certain sea levels. Um, and it's not just the fact that sea 1976 00:36:37,270 --> 00:36:37,280 Um, and it's not just the fact that sea 1977 00:36:37,280 --> 00:36:38,470 Um, and it's not just the fact that sea levels are going to rise. They're not 1978 00:36:38,470 --> 00:36:38,480 levels are going to rise. They're not 1979 00:36:38,480 --> 00:36:40,150 levels are going to rise. They're not going to suddenly flood New York or 1980 00:36:40,150 --> 00:36:40,160 going to suddenly flood New York or 1981 00:36:40,160 --> 00:36:42,069 going to suddenly flood New York or Miami overnight, 1982 00:36:42,069 --> 00:36:42,079 Miami overnight, 1983 00:36:42,079 --> 00:36:46,069 Miami overnight, but they they will cause problems with 1984 00:36:46,069 --> 00:36:46,079 but they they will cause problems with 1985 00:36:46,079 --> 00:36:47,750 but they they will cause problems with salination, which is salt water 1986 00:36:47,750 --> 00:36:47,760 salination, which is salt water 1987 00:36:47,760 --> 00:36:50,390 salination, which is salt water intruding into freshwater areas. And 1988 00:36:50,390 --> 00:36:50,400 intruding into freshwater areas. And 1989 00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:51,510 intruding into freshwater areas. And there is going to be problem with fresh 1990 00:36:51,510 --> 00:36:51,520 there is going to be problem with fresh 1991 00:36:51,520 --> 00:36:53,750 there is going to be problem with fresh water in the future. And over time, if 1992 00:36:53,750 --> 00:36:53,760 water in the future. And over time, if 1993 00:36:53,760 --> 00:36:55,270 water in the future. And over time, if we're looking hundreds of years ahead, 1994 00:36:55,270 --> 00:36:55,280 we're looking hundreds of years ahead, 1995 00:36:55,280 --> 00:36:57,510 we're looking hundreds of years ahead, of course, everything that we built is 1996 00:36:57,510 --> 00:36:57,520 of course, everything that we built is 1997 00:36:57,520 --> 00:36:59,589 of course, everything that we built is going to have to be moved in land. Now, 1998 00:36:59,589 --> 00:36:59,599 going to have to be moved in land. Now, 1999 00:36:59,599 --> 00:37:01,030 going to have to be moved in land. Now, if you're going to move it in land, how 2000 00:37:01,030 --> 00:37:01,040 if you're going to move it in land, how 2001 00:37:01,040 --> 00:37:03,750 if you're going to move it in land, how far are you going to go? And if if you 2002 00:37:03,750 --> 00:37:03,760 far are you going to go? And if if you 2003 00:37:03,760 --> 00:37:06,310 far are you going to go?

They'll go through everything 2356 00:43:12,390 --> 00:43:12,400 science. They'll go through everything 2357 00:43:12,400 --> 00:43:15,030 science. They'll go through everything that's been done on studies and and 2358 00:43:15,030 --> 00:43:15,040 that's been done on studies and and 2359 00:43:15,040 --> 00:43:17,670 that's been done on studies and and evaluate it and then summarize the way 2360 00:43:17,670 --> 00:43:17,680 evaluate it and then summarize the way 2361 00:43:17,680 --> 00:43:20,390 evaluate it and then summarize the way that we we understand things. And PLA to 2362 00:43:20,390 --> 00:43:20,400 that we we understand things. And PLA to 2363 00:43:20,400 --> 00:43:22,309 that we we understand things. And PLA to a certain extent did he did a lot of 2364 00:43:22,309 --> 00:43:22,319 a certain extent did he did a lot of 2365 00:43:22,319 --> 00:43:23,990 a certain extent did he did a lot of obviously most of it was original 2366 00:43:23,990 --> 00:43:24,000 obviously most of it was original 2367 00:43:24,000 --> 00:43:26,710 obviously most of it was original research, but he took what we knew about 2368 00:43:26,710 --> 00:43:26,720 research, but he took what we knew about 2369 00:43:26,720 --> 00:43:29,910 research, but he took what we knew about carbon dioxide and encapsulated it into 2370 00:43:29,910 --> 00:43:29,920 carbon dioxide and encapsulated it into 2371 00:43:29,920 --> 00:43:32,390 carbon dioxide and encapsulated it into the theory of climatic change. That's 2372 00:43:32,390 --> 00:43:32,400 the theory of climatic change. That's 2373 00:43:32,400 --> 00:43:34,390 the theory of climatic change. That's what the paper was called. So, ever 2374 00:43:34,390 --> 00:43:34,400 what the paper was called. So, ever 2375 00:43:34,400 --> 00:43:36,069 what the paper was called. So, ever since then, it's been called climate 2376 00:43:36,069 --> 00:43:36,079 since then, it's been called climate 2377 00:43:36,079 --> 00:43:38,470 since then, it's been called climate change for short. So, you know, back to 2378 00:43:38,470 --> 00:43:38,480 change for short. So, you know, back to 2379 00:43:38,480 --> 00:43:40,710 change for short. So, you know, back to the climate always changes. We are 2380 00:43:40,710 --> 00:43:40,720 the climate always changes. We are 2381 00:43:40,720 --> 00:43:42,630 the climate always changes. We are specifically dealing with climate change 2382 00:43:42,630 --> 00:43:42,640 specifically dealing with climate change 2383 00:43:42,640 --> 00:43:44,230 specifically dealing with climate change which is caused by a warming of the 2384 00:43:44,230 --> 00:43:44,240 which is caused by a warming of the 2385 00:43:44,240 --> 00:43:46,550 which is caused by a warming of the planet. Now what do we call that warming 2386 00:43:46,550 --> 00:43:46,560 planet. Now what do we call that warming 2387 00:43:46,560 --> 00:43:48,870 planet. Now what do we call that warming of the planet? Well, in 1979 and I can't 2388 00:43:48,870 --> 00:43:48,880 of the planet? Well, in 1979 and I can't 2389 00:43:48,880 --> 00:43:50,069 of the planet? Well, in 1979 and I can't remember who did this, someone coined 2390 00:43:50,069 --> 00:43:50,079 remember who did this, someone coined 2391 00:43:50,079 --> 00:43:52,390 remember who did this, someone coined the term climate change uh sorry uh 2392 00:43:52,390 --> 00:43:52,400 the term climate change uh sorry uh 2393 00:43:52,400 --> 00:43:54,710 the term climate change uh sorry uh global warming and that perfectly 2394 00:43:54,710 --> 00:43:54,720 global warming and that perfectly 2395 00:43:54,720 --> 00:43:56,790 global warming and that perfectly encapsulated what it was that was 2396 00:43:56,790 --> 00:43:56,800 encapsulated what it was that was 2397 00:43:56,800 --> 00:43:59,510 encapsulated what it was that was causing the climate change. So they have 2398 00:43:59,510 --> 00:43:59,520 causing the climate change. So they have 2399 00:43:59,520 --> 00:44:01,670 causing the climate change. So they have now become in in in the mind of 2400 00:44:01,670 --> 00:44:01,680 now become in in in the mind of 2401 00:44:01,680 --> 00:44:03,349 now become in in in the mind of scientists these are now two different 2402 00:44:03,349 --> 00:44:03,359 scientists these are now two different 2403 00:44:03,359 --> 00:44:05,910 scientists these are now two different things. One is global warming which is 2404 00:44:05,910 --> 00:44:05,920 things. One is global warming which is 2405 00:44:05,920 --> 00:44:07,910 things. One is global warming which is the warming of the planet that's been 2406 00:44:07,910 --> 00:44:07,920 the warming of the planet that's been 2407 00:44:07,920 --> 00:44:10,470 the warming of the planet that's been around since 1979. The other is the 2408 00:44:10,470 --> 00:44:10,480 around since 1979. The other is the 2409 00:44:10,480 --> 00:44:11,990 around since 1979. The other is the theory of climate change. This is 2410 00:44:11,990 --> 00:44:12,000 theory of climate change. This is 2411 00:44:12,000 --> 00:44:14,470 theory of climate change. This is climate change which says that the 2412 00:44:14,470 --> 00:44:14,480 climate change which says that the 2413 00:44:14,480 --> 00:44:16,309 climate change which says that the warming, the global warming that we're 2414 00:44:16,309 --> 00:44:16,319 warming, the global warming that we're 2415 00:44:16,319 --> 00:44:19,030 warming, the global warming that we're seeing is causing climate change all 2416 00:44:19,030 --> 00:44:19,040 seeing is causing climate change all 2417 00:44:19,040 --> 00:44:21,990 seeing is causing climate change all over the world. And this is why the IPCC 2418 00:44:21,990 --> 00:44:22,000 over the world. And this is why the IPCC 2419 00:44:22,000 --> 00:44:24,150 over the world. And this is why the IPCC has the word climate change in it. The 2420 00:44:24,150 --> 00:44:24,160 has the word climate change in it. The 2421 00:44:24,160 --> 00:44:28,230 has the word climate change in it. The CC stands for climate change. Um so I 2422 00:44:28,230 --> 00:44:28,240 CC stands for climate change. Um so I 2423 00:44:28,240 --> 00:44:31,109 CC stands for climate change. Um so I it's not that um global warming came 2424 00:44:31,109 --> 00:44:31,119 it's not that um global warming came 2425 00:44:31,119 --> 00:44:33,270 it's not that um global warming came first. It's the other way round. Climate 2426 00:44:33,270 --> 00:44:33,280 first. It's the other way round. Climate 2427 00:44:33,280 --> 00:44:35,910 first. It's the other way round. Climate change came in 1955. Global warming came 2428 00:44:35,910 --> 00:44:35,920 change came in 1955. Global warming came 2429 00:44:35,920 --> 00:44:38,950 change came in 1955. Global warming came in 1979. They mean different things. 2430 00:44:38,950 --> 00:44:38,960 in 1979. They mean different things. 2431 00:44:38,960 --> 00:44:41,109 in 1979. They mean different things. They are sometimes used interchangeably, 2432 00:44:41,109 --> 00:44:41,119 They are sometimes used interchangeably, 2433 00:44:41,119 --> 00:44:42,630 They are sometimes used interchangeably, but because that's the nature of it, 2434 00:44:42,630 --> 00:44:42,640 but because that's the nature of it, 2435 00:44:42,640 --> 00:44:45,190 but because that's the nature of it, they they they are the almost the same 2436 00:44:45,190 --> 00:44:45,200 they they they are the almost the same 2437 00:44:45,200 --> 00:44:47,109 they they they are the almost the same phenomenon, but one is a cause, the 2438 00:44:47,109 --> 00:44:47,119 phenomenon, but one is a cause, the 2439 00:44:47,119 --> 00:44:49,270 phenomenon, but one is a cause, the other's an effect. And the fact that 2440 00:44:49,270 --> 00:44:49,280 other's an effect. And the fact that 2441 00:44:49,280 --> 00:44:52,390 other's an effect. And the fact that people don't know this is so easy to 2442 00:44:52,390 --> 00:44:52,400 people don't know this is so easy to 2443 00:44:52,400 --> 00:44:54,630 people don't know this is so easy to overturn because all you have to do is 2444 00:44:54,630 --> 00:44:54,640 overturn because all you have to do is 2445 00:44:54,640 --> 00:44:58,470 overturn because all you have to do is point them to the PLA paper. Um I I've 2446 00:44:58,470 --> 00:44:58,480 point them to the PLA paper. Um I I've 2447 00:44:58,480 --> 00:45:00,630 point them to the PLA paper. Um I I've got it on my channel and several times 2448 00:45:00,630 --> 00:45:00,640 got it on my channel and several times 2449 00:45:00,640 --> 00:45:02,390 got it on my channel and several times and I'm sure you've covered it, but it's 2450 00:45:02,390 --> 00:45:02,400 and I'm sure you've covered it, but it's 2451 00:45:02,400 --> 00:45:05,030 and I'm sure you've covered it, but it's it's a paper by Pl55. It's the theory of 2452 00:45:05,030 --> 00:45:05,040 it's a paper by Pl55. It's the theory of 2453 00:45:05,040 --> 00:45:07,109 it's a paper by Pl55. It's the theory of climatic change. just show them that 2454 00:45:07,109 --> 00:45:07,119 climatic change. just show them that 2455 00:45:07,119 --> 00:45:09,589 climatic change. just show them that this was 1955 and I think Wikipedia 2456 00:45:09,589 --> 00:45:09,599 this was 1955 and I think Wikipedia 2457 00:45:09,599 --> 00:45:12,069 this was 1955 and I think Wikipedia talks about um I' I've checked their 2458 00:45:12,069 --> 00:45:12,079 talks about um I' I've checked their 2459 00:45:12,079 --> 00:45:15,829 talks about um I' I've checked their sources by the way um that 1979 2460 00:45:15,829 --> 00:45:15,839 sources by the way um that 1979 2461 00:45:15,839 --> 00:45:19,510 sources by the way um that 1979 um turn of phrase global warming very 2462 00:45:19,510 --> 00:45:19,520 um turn of phrase global warming very 2463 00:45:19,520 --> 00:45:21,349 um turn of phrase global warming very easy to debunk that one 2464 00:45:21,349 --> 00:45:21,359 easy to debunk that one 2465 00:45:21,359 --> 00:45:23,510 easy to debunk that one >> yeah it's clearly a category error right 2466 00:45:23,510 --> 00:45:23,520 >> yeah it's clearly a category error right 2467 00:45:23,520 --> 00:45:25,750 >> yeah it's clearly a category error right people are just not understand like I to 2468 00:45:25,750 --> 00:45:25,760 people are just not understand like I to 2469 00:45:25,760 --> 00:45:28,069 people are just not understand like I to me it's just how can you if we're saying 2470 00:45:28,069 --> 00:45:28,079 me it's just how can you if we're saying 2471 00:45:28,079 --> 00:45:30,550 me it's just how can you if we're saying that warming is c look at all of these 2472 00:45:30,550 --> 00:45:30,560 that warming is c look at all of these 2473 00:45:30,560 --> 00:45:32,710 that warming is c look at all of these effect these myriad effects right we're 2474 00:45:32,710 --> 00:45:32,720 effect these myriad effects right we're 2475 00:45:32,720 --> 00:45:35,349 effect these myriad effects right we're talking about more hurricanes right 2476 00:45:35,349 --> 00:45:35,359 talking about more hurricanes right 2477 00:45:35,359 --> 00:45:37,030 talking about more hurricanes right differences isn't like precipitate like 2478 00:45:37,030 --> 00:45:37,040 differences isn't like precipitate like 2479 00:45:37,040 --> 00:45:39,670 differences isn't like precipitate like you those don't those can't be described 2480 00:45:39,670 --> 00:45:39,680 you those don't those can't be described 2481 00:45:39,680 --> 00:45:41,589 you those don't those can't be described by the word warming we're talking about 2482 00:45:41,589 --> 00:45:41,599 by the word warming we're talking about 2483 00:45:41,599 --> 00:45:44,309 by the word warming we're talking about all of these dramatic effects uh that 2484 00:45:44,309 --> 00:45:44,319 all of these dramatic effects uh that 2485 00:45:44,319 --> 00:45:45,990 all of these dramatic effects uh that are the result of warming right so it's 2486 00:45:45,990 --> 00:45:46,000 are the result of warming right so it's 2487 00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:48,150 are the result of warming right so it's a broader uh term it's a it's a broad 2488 00:45:48,150 --> 00:45:48,160 a broader uh term it's a it's a broad 2489 00:45:48,160 --> 00:45:49,829 a broader uh term it's a it's a broad >> term stronger I have to I have to 2490 00:45:49,829 --> 00:45:49,839 >> term stronger I have to I have to 2491 00:45:49,839 --> 00:45:52,550 >> term stronger I have to I have to emphasize stronger hurricans yeah um and 2492 00:45:52,550 --> 00:45:52,560 emphasize stronger hurricans yeah um and 2493 00:45:52,560 --> 00:45:54,630 emphasize stronger hurricans yeah um and and the huracans will get much more 2494 00:45:54,630 --> 00:45:54,640 and the huracans will get much more 2495 00:45:54,640 --> 00:45:57,829 and the huracans will get much more intense that is the biggest problem 2496 00:45:57,829 --> 00:45:57,839 intense that is the biggest problem 2497 00:45:57,839 --> 00:46:00,309 intense that is the biggest problem >> just because the water they form over is 2498 00:46:00,309 --> 00:46:00,319 >> just because the water they form over is 2499 00:46:00,319 --> 00:46:01,270 >> just because the water they form over is warmer 2500 00:46:01,270 --> 00:46:01,280 warmer 2501 00:46:01,280 --> 00:46:02,790 warmer >> it's warmer exactly that's where they 2502 00:46:02,790 --> 00:46:02,800 >> it's warmer exactly that's where they 2503 00:46:02,800 --> 00:46:05,990 >> it's warmer exactly that's where they get energy from uh it was interesting ly 2504 00:46:05,990 --> 00:46:06,000 get energy from uh it was interesting ly 2505 00:46:06,000 --> 00:46:10,309 get energy from uh it was interesting ly it was um uh Dick I forget his name now. 2506 00:46:10,309 --> 00:46:10,319 it was um uh Dick I forget his name now. 2507 00:46:10,319 --> 00:46:12,150 it was um uh Dick I forget his name now. kind of one of the now the biggest 2508 00:46:12,150 --> 00:46:12,160 kind of one of the now the biggest 2509 00:46:12,160 --> 00:46:14,069 kind of one of the now the biggest contrarians in science who who 2510 00:46:14,069 --> 00:46:14,079 contrarians in science who who 2511 00:46:14,079 --> 00:46:17,030 contrarians in science who who discovered that actually uh global 2512 00:46:17,030 --> 00:46:17,040 discovered that actually uh global 2513 00:46:17,040 --> 00:46:18,870 discovered that actually uh global warming would increase the intensity of 2514 00:46:18,870 --> 00:46:18,880 warming would increase the intensity of 2515 00:46:18,880 --> 00:46:22,069 warming would increase the intensity of of hurricanes and and cause if you're 2516 00:46:22,069 --> 00:46:22,079 of hurricanes and and cause if you're 2517 00:46:22,079 --> 00:46:23,430 of hurricanes and and cause if you're getting more water vapor in the 2518 00:46:23,430 --> 00:46:23,440 getting more water vapor in the 2519 00:46:23,440 --> 00:46:27,190 getting more water vapor in the atmosphere um that is then when it does 2520 00:46:27,190 --> 00:46:27,200 atmosphere um that is then when it does 2521 00:46:27,200 --> 00:46:30,630 atmosphere um that is then when it does rain uh it's going to be more intense 2522 00:46:30,630 --> 00:46:30,640 rain uh it's going to be more intense 2523 00:46:30,640 --> 00:46:33,670 rain uh it's going to be more intense and uh if the earth is getting warmer it 2524 00:46:33,670 --> 00:46:33,680 and uh if the earth is getting warmer it 2525 00:46:33,680 --> 00:46:35,750 and uh if the earth is getting warmer it means when you do get evaporation that 2526 00:46:35,750 --> 00:46:35,760 means when you do get evaporation that 2527 00:46:35,760 --> 00:46:37,589 means when you do get evaporation that evaporation is going to be more intense 2528 00:46:37,589 --> 00:46:37,599 evaporation is going to be more intense 2529 00:46:37,599 --> 00:46:39,910 evaporation is going to be more intense so you get more extremes of climate 2530 00:46:39,910 --> 00:46:39,920 so you get more extremes of climate 2531 00:46:39,920 --> 00:46:42,550 so you get more extremes of climate generally extreme weather patterns. 2532 00:46:42,550 --> 00:46:42,560 generally extreme weather patterns. 2533 00:46:42,560 --> 00:46:43,030 generally extreme weather patterns. Yeah. 2534 00:46:43,030 --> 00:46:43,040 Yeah. 2535 00:46:43,040 --> 00:46:44,710 Yeah. >> And and this is where the computers are 2536 00:46:44,710 --> 00:46:44,720 >> And and this is where the computers are 2537 00:46:44,720 --> 00:46:46,309 >> And and this is where the computers are useful because they'll be able to 2538 00:46:46,309 --> 00:46:46,319 useful because they'll be able to 2539 00:46:46,319 --> 00:46:48,150 useful because they'll be able to pinpoint exactly where this is 2540 00:46:48,150 --> 00:46:48,160 pinpoint exactly where this is 2541 00:46:48,160 --> 00:46:50,069 pinpoint exactly where this is happening. We would never have been able 2542 00:46:50,069 --> 00:46:50,079 happening. We would never have been able 2543 00:46:50,079 --> 00:46:51,910 happening. We would never have been able to do this maybe 50 years ago. We could 2544 00:46:51,910 --> 00:46:51,920 to do this maybe 50 years ago. We could 2545 00:46:51,920 --> 00:46:53,829 to do this maybe 50 years ago. We could say generally this is what global 2546 00:46:53,829 --> 00:46:53,839 say generally this is what global 2547 00:46:53,839 --> 00:46:55,430 say generally this is what global warming is going to cause in terms of 2548 00:46:55,430 --> 00:46:55,440 warming is going to cause in terms of 2549 00:46:55,440 --> 00:46:57,670 warming is going to cause in terms of climate change. Now they can pinpoint it 2550 00:46:57,670 --> 00:46:57,680 climate change. Now they can pinpoint it 2551 00:46:57,680 --> 00:47:00,150 climate change. Now they can pinpoint it a lot more accurately. 2552 00:47:00,150 --> 00:47:00,160 a lot more accurately. 2553 00:47:00,160 --> 00:47:02,630 a lot more accurately. >> So it's it's it's all very depressing. 2554 00:47:02,630 --> 00:47:02,640 >> So it's it's it's all very depressing. 2555 00:47:02,640 --> 00:47:04,950 >> So it's it's it's all very depressing.

Um, organisms on 2614 00:48:09,430 --> 00:48:09,440 going to pay for it? Um, organisms on 2615 00:48:09,440 --> 00:48:11,829 going to pay for it? Um, organisms on ground. I mean, you know, people are 2616 00:48:11,829 --> 00:48:11,839 ground. I mean, you know, people are 2617 00:48:11,839 --> 00:48:16,390 ground. I mean, you know, people are doing as much as they can to uh inc to 2618 00:48:16,390 --> 00:48:16,400 doing as much as they can to uh inc to 2619 00:48:16,400 --> 00:48:18,710 doing as much as they can to uh inc to green the earth. Um, I mean, there's a 2620 00:48:18,710 --> 00:48:18,720 green the earth. Um, I mean, there's a 2621 00:48:18,720 --> 00:48:21,750 green the earth. Um, I mean, there's a certain amount of greening 10 10% of uh 2622 00:48:21,750 --> 00:48:21,760 certain amount of greening 10 10% of uh 2623 00:48:21,760 --> 00:48:25,190 certain amount of greening 10 10% of uh the biomass uh sorry, the carbon dioxide 2624 00:48:25,190 --> 00:48:25,200 the biomass uh sorry, the carbon dioxide 2625 00:48:25,200 --> 00:48:26,630 the biomass uh sorry, the carbon dioxide going into the atmosphere is going into 2626 00:48:26,630 --> 00:48:26,640 going into the atmosphere is going into 2627 00:48:26,640 --> 00:48:28,630 going into the atmosphere is going into the biomass, which is good. Doesn't help 2628 00:48:28,630 --> 00:48:28,640 the biomass, which is good. Doesn't help 2629 00:48:28,640 --> 00:48:30,309 the biomass, which is good. Doesn't help us unfortunately because it's going into 2630 00:48:30,309 --> 00:48:30,319 us unfortunately because it's going into 2631 00:48:30,319 --> 00:48:32,870 us unfortunately because it's going into all the things we can't eat. Um, you 2632 00:48:32,870 --> 00:48:32,880 all the things we can't eat. Um, you 2633 00:48:32,880 --> 00:48:35,030 all the things we can't eat. Um, you know, weeds and desert scrub and stuff. 2634 00:48:35,030 --> 00:48:35,040 know, weeds and desert scrub and stuff. 2635 00:48:35,040 --> 00:48:36,470 know, weeds and desert scrub and stuff. That's not going to help us. So don't 2636 00:48:36,470 --> 00:48:36,480 That's not going to help us. So don't 2637 00:48:36,480 --> 00:48:38,309 That's not going to help us. So don't think someone say, "Oh yeah, but that's 2638 00:48:38,309 --> 00:48:38,319 think someone say, "Oh yeah, but that's 2639 00:48:38,319 --> 00:48:39,510 think someone say, "Oh yeah, but that's the answer. That's not going to get us 2640 00:48:39,510 --> 00:48:39,520 the answer. That's not going to get us 2641 00:48:39,520 --> 00:48:41,910 the answer. That's not going to get us out of it." But no, there are all kinds 2642 00:48:41,910 --> 00:48:41,920 out of it." But no, there are all kinds 2643 00:48:41,920 --> 00:48:43,910 out of it." But no, there are all kinds of things that we we can do on a very 2644 00:48:43,910 --> 00:48:43,920 of things that we we can do on a very 2645 00:48:43,920 --> 00:48:47,030 of things that we we can do on a very local, very um personal level, but 2646 00:48:47,030 --> 00:48:47,040 local, very um personal level, but 2647 00:48:47,040 --> 00:48:48,790 local, very um personal level, but ultimately it's going to have to be 2648 00:48:48,790 --> 00:48:48,800 ultimately it's going to have to be 2649 00:48:48,800 --> 00:48:50,470 ultimately it's going to have to be solved by people recognizing that 2650 00:48:50,470 --> 00:48:50,480 solved by people recognizing that 2651 00:48:50,480 --> 00:48:53,109 solved by people recognizing that there's a problem and saying it doesn't 2652 00:48:53,109 --> 00:48:53,119 there's a problem and saying it doesn't 2653 00:48:53,119 --> 00:48:55,990 there's a problem and saying it doesn't have to cost us anything to do this. 2654 00:48:55,990 --> 00:48:56,000 have to cost us anything to do this. 2655 00:48:56,000 --> 00:48:59,910 have to cost us anything to do this. They now wind turbines and solar panels 2656 00:48:59,910 --> 00:48:59,920 They now wind turbines and solar panels 2657 00:48:59,920 --> 00:49:03,270 They now wind turbines and solar panels are now so cheap. Uh here in Australia, 2658 00:49:03,270 --> 00:49:03,280 are now so cheap. Uh here in Australia, 2659 00:49:03,280 --> 00:49:04,390 are now so cheap. Uh here in Australia, and I don't know if that's the same in 2660 00:49:04,390 --> 00:49:04,400 and I don't know if that's the same in 2661 00:49:04,400 --> 00:49:05,670 and I don't know if that's the same in the States, now our solar panels here 2662 00:49:05,670 --> 00:49:05,680 the States, now our solar panels here 2663 00:49:05,680 --> 00:49:07,430 the States, now our solar panels here are being used as fencing because 2664 00:49:07,430 --> 00:49:07,440 are being used as fencing because 2665 00:49:07,440 --> 00:49:09,270 are being used as fencing because they're cheaper than fencing and you can 2666 00:49:09,270 --> 00:49:09,280 they're cheaper than fencing and you can 2667 00:49:09,280 --> 00:49:12,069 they're cheaper than fencing and you can hook the solar panels up to a grid. And 2668 00:49:12,069 --> 00:49:12,079 hook the solar panels up to a grid. And 2669 00:49:12,079 --> 00:49:15,589 hook the solar panels up to a grid. And wind turbines now in the UK are so cheap 2670 00:49:15,589 --> 00:49:15,599 wind turbines now in the UK are so cheap 2671 00:49:15,599 --> 00:49:18,069 wind turbines now in the UK are so cheap that they are much cheaper than new uh 2672 00:49:18,069 --> 00:49:18,079 that they are much cheaper than new uh 2673 00:49:18,079 --> 00:49:22,069 that they are much cheaper than new uh coal powered uh coal fired powered 2674 00:49:22,069 --> 00:49:22,079 coal powered uh coal fired powered 2675 00:49:22,079 --> 00:49:26,230 coal powered uh coal fired powered stations uh for electricity. So the 2676 00:49:26,230 --> 00:49:26,240 stations uh for electricity. So the 2677 00:49:26,240 --> 00:49:28,150 stations uh for electricity. So the gradually the technology is getting 2678 00:49:28,150 --> 00:49:28,160 gradually the technology is getting 2679 00:49:28,160 --> 00:49:30,230 gradually the technology is getting there. We've got electric cars now which 2680 00:49:30,230 --> 00:49:30,240 there. We've got electric cars now which 2681 00:49:30,240 --> 00:49:32,309 there. We've got electric cars now which are much more economical. And once 2682 00:49:32,309 --> 00:49:32,319 are much more economical. And once 2683 00:49:32,319 --> 00:49:33,990 are much more economical. And once things become more economical, once 2684 00:49:33,990 --> 00:49:34,000 things become more economical, once 2685 00:49:34,000 --> 00:49:35,589 things become more economical, once people realize they can actually save 2686 00:49:35,589 --> 00:49:35,599 people realize they can actually save 2687 00:49:35,599 --> 00:49:37,430 people realize they can actually save money with these things, if they're not 2688 00:49:37,430 --> 00:49:37,440 money with these things, if they're not 2689 00:49:37,440 --> 00:49:40,390 money with these things, if they're not just ideologically or religiously bound 2690 00:49:40,390 --> 00:49:40,400 just ideologically or religiously bound 2691 00:49:40,400 --> 00:49:42,790 just ideologically or religiously bound to oppose whatever it is the 2692 00:49:42,790 --> 00:49:42,800 to oppose whatever it is the 2693 00:49:42,800 --> 00:49:45,270 to oppose whatever it is the environmental lobby is looking at, if 2694 00:49:45,270 --> 00:49:45,280 environmental lobby is looking at, if 2695 00:49:45,280 --> 00:49:46,790 environmental lobby is looking at, if they could just open their eyes and say, 2696 00:49:46,790 --> 00:49:46,800 they could just open their eyes and say, 2697 00:49:46,800 --> 00:49:48,630 they could just open their eyes and say, "Well, actually, yeah, we could we could 2698 00:49:48,630 --> 00:49:48,640 "Well, actually, yeah, we could we could 2699 00:49:48,640 --> 00:49:51,270 "Well, actually, yeah, we could we could save money on this."

Um 2778 00:51:15,589 --> 00:51:15,599 energy which they never could before. Um 2779 00:51:15,599 --> 00:51:18,470 energy which they never could before. Um I one of the examples I give Dave um is 2780 00:51:18,470 --> 00:51:18,480 I one of the examples I give Dave um is 2781 00:51:18,480 --> 00:51:22,069 I one of the examples I give Dave um is I went to South Australia um where the 2782 00:51:22,069 --> 00:51:22,079 I went to South Australia um where the 2783 00:51:22,079 --> 00:51:24,230 I went to South Australia um where the Labor government which is the left-wing 2784 00:51:24,230 --> 00:51:24,240 Labor government which is the left-wing 2785 00:51:24,240 --> 00:51:26,950 Labor government which is the left-wing government here had put in um they 2786 00:51:26,950 --> 00:51:26,960 government here had put in um they 2787 00:51:26,960 --> 00:51:28,630 government here had put in um they they'd got rid of some coal fired power 2788 00:51:28,630 --> 00:51:28,640 they'd got rid of some coal fired power 2789 00:51:28,640 --> 00:51:30,710 they'd got rid of some coal fired power stations and put in wind turbines and 2790 00:51:30,710 --> 00:51:30,720 stations and put in wind turbines and 2791 00:51:30,720 --> 00:51:32,150 stations and put in wind turbines and solar panels and so on and the 2792 00:51:32,150 --> 00:51:32,160 solar panels and so on and the 2793 00:51:32,160 --> 00:51:34,230 solar panels and so on and the opposition the Conservative party which 2794 00:51:34,230 --> 00:51:34,240 opposition the Conservative party which 2795 00:51:34,240 --> 00:51:36,309 opposition the Conservative party which here confusingly is called the Liberal 2796 00:51:36,309 --> 00:51:36,319 here confusingly is called the Liberal 2797 00:51:36,319 --> 00:51:40,309 here confusingly is called the Liberal Party. Um, they all said uh they all 2798 00:51:40,309 --> 00:51:40,319 Party. Um, they all said uh they all 2799 00:51:40,319 --> 00:51:41,430 Party. Um, they all said uh they all said that as soon as they get into 2800 00:51:41,430 --> 00:51:41,440 said that as soon as they get into 2801 00:51:41,440 --> 00:51:42,870 said that as soon as they get into power, they're going to scrap all this 2802 00:51:42,870 --> 00:51:42,880 power, they're going to scrap all this 2803 00:51:42,880 --> 00:51:45,430 power, they're going to scrap all this mambby pami woke nonsense of of 2804 00:51:45,430 --> 00:51:45,440 mambby pami woke nonsense of of 2805 00:51:45,440 --> 00:51:47,270 mambby pami woke nonsense of of renewable energy. Well, they did get 2806 00:51:47,270 --> 00:51:47,280 renewable energy. Well, they did get 2807 00:51:47,280 --> 00:51:49,030 renewable energy. Well, they did get into power a few years later. And they 2808 00:51:49,030 --> 00:51:49,040 into power a few years later. And they 2809 00:51:49,040 --> 00:51:51,430 into power a few years later. And they not only kept the systems that the Labor 2810 00:51:51,430 --> 00:51:51,440 not only kept the systems that the Labor 2811 00:51:51,440 --> 00:51:53,510 not only kept the systems that the Labor Party had put in, they expanded them. 2812 00:51:53,510 --> 00:51:53,520 Party had put in, they expanded them. 2813 00:51:53,520 --> 00:51:57,270 Party had put in, they expanded them. They actually built more um uh wind 2814 00:51:57,270 --> 00:51:57,280 They actually built more um uh wind 2815 00:51:57,280 --> 00:51:59,670 They actually built more um uh wind turbines. they destroyed a couple of 2816 00:51:59,670 --> 00:51:59,680 turbines. they destroyed a couple of 2817 00:51:59,680 --> 00:52:01,910 turbines. they destroyed a couple of coal fired power stations because the 2818 00:52:01,910 --> 00:52:01,920 coal fired power stations because the 2819 00:52:01,920 --> 00:52:05,750 coal fired power stations because the thing was so successful and and so cheap 2820 00:52:05,750 --> 00:52:05,760 thing was so successful and and so cheap 2821 00:52:05,760 --> 00:52:08,470 thing was so successful and and so cheap um that it it was working and ultimately 2822 00:52:08,470 --> 00:52:08,480 um that it it was working and ultimately 2823 00:52:08,480 --> 00:52:11,510 um that it it was working and ultimately that's we're all pragmatists in the end 2824 00:52:11,510 --> 00:52:11,520 that's we're all pragmatists in the end 2825 00:52:11,520 --> 00:52:14,309 that's we're all pragmatists in the end whatever political beliefs are and and 2826 00:52:14,309 --> 00:52:14,319 whatever political beliefs are and and 2827 00:52:14,319 --> 00:52:16,790 whatever political beliefs are and and that was a success story. So uh and and 2828 00:52:16,790 --> 00:52:16,800 that was a success story. So uh and and 2829 00:52:16,800 --> 00:52:18,630 that was a success story. So uh and and the other thing they did was Elon Musk 2830 00:52:18,630 --> 00:52:18,640 the other thing they did was Elon Musk 2831 00:52:18,640 --> 00:52:19,990 the other thing they did was Elon Musk came in and built a massive great 2832 00:52:19,990 --> 00:52:20,000 came in and built a massive great 2833 00:52:20,000 --> 00:52:21,829 came in and built a massive great battery which stabilized the whole 2834 00:52:21,829 --> 00:52:21,839 battery which stabilized the whole 2835 00:52:21,839 --> 00:52:23,270 battery which stabilized the whole energy system. It's one of the most 2836 00:52:23,270 --> 00:52:23,280 energy system. It's one of the most 2837 00:52:23,280 --> 00:52:25,349 energy system. It's one of the most successful projects in Australia and 2838 00:52:25,349 --> 00:52:25,359 successful projects in Australia and 2839 00:52:25,359 --> 00:52:27,750 successful projects in Australia and it's now being copied elsewhere. And I 2840 00:52:27,750 --> 00:52:27,760 it's now being copied elsewhere. And I 2841 00:52:27,760 --> 00:52:30,069 it's now being copied elsewhere. And I think we're going to see God, if you 2842 00:52:30,069 --> 00:52:30,079 think we're going to see God, if you 2843 00:52:30,079 --> 00:52:32,790 think we're going to see God, if you look at the crisis at the moment. If if 2844 00:52:32,790 --> 00:52:32,800 look at the crisis at the moment. If if 2845 00:52:32,800 --> 00:52:34,870 look at the crisis at the moment. If if you wanted to know why it's not a good 2846 00:52:34,870 --> 00:52:34,880 you wanted to know why it's not a good 2847 00:52:34,880 --> 00:52:37,589 you wanted to know why it's not a good idea to be so dependent on oil, I think 2848 00:52:37,589 --> 00:52:37,599 idea to be so dependent on oil, I think 2849 00:52:37,599 --> 00:52:40,390 idea to be so dependent on oil, I think recent events have told us why. Um the 2850 00:52:40,390 --> 00:52:40,400 recent events have told us why. Um the 2851 00:52:40,400 --> 00:52:42,309 recent events have told us why. Um the people who bought electric cars and are 2852 00:52:42,309 --> 00:52:42,319 people who bought electric cars and are 2853 00:52:42,319 --> 00:52:44,630 people who bought electric cars and are running those off renewable energy are 2854 00:52:44,630 --> 00:52:44,640 running those off renewable energy are 2855 00:52:44,640 --> 00:52:46,790 running those off renewable energy are now laughing because they don't have to 2856 00:52:46,790 --> 00:52:46,800 now laughing because they don't have to 2857 00:52:46,800 --> 00:52:47,910 now laughing because they don't have to worry about price of gas. 2858 00:52:47,910 --> 00:52:47,920 worry about price of gas. 2859 00:52:47,920 --> 00:52:49,270 worry about price of gas. >> They don't have to worry about gas going 2860 00:52:49,270 --> 00:52:49,280 >> They don't have to worry about gas going 2861 00:52:49,280 --> 00:52:51,910 >> They don't have to worry about gas going up. Yeah, maybe that's it. Maybe just 2862 00:52:51,910 --> 00:52:51,920 up. Yeah, maybe that's it. Maybe just 2863 00:52:51,920 --> 00:52:55,270 up. Yeah, maybe that's it. Maybe just one day, like 10 years from now, um 2864 00:52:55,270 --> 00:52:55,280 one day, like 10 years from now, um 2865 00:52:55,280 --> 00:52:57,670 one day, like 10 years from now, um everything will pivot on a dime and all 2866 00:52:57,670 --> 00:52:57,680 everything will pivot on a dime and all 2867 00:52:57,680 --> 00:52:59,430 everything will pivot on a dime and all of those conglomerates will go, "Just 2868 00:52:59,430 --> 00:52:59,440 of those conglomerates will go, "Just 2869 00:52:59,440 --> 00:53:01,589 of those conglomerates will go, "Just kidding.

And I think I think the tipping 2881 00:53:08,800 --> 00:53:10,150 >> Yeah. And I think I think the tipping the tipping point is with us. I mean, 2882 00:53:10,150 --> 00:53:10,160 the tipping point is with us. I mean, 2883 00:53:10,160 --> 00:53:12,150 the tipping point is with us. I mean, love to see nuclear fusion, which now 2884 00:53:12,150 --> 00:53:12,160 love to see nuclear fusion, which now 2885 00:53:12,160 --> 00:53:13,829 love to see nuclear fusion, which now >> Exactly. Yeah. I talk about fusion a lot 2886 00:53:13,829 --> 00:53:13,839 >> Exactly. Yeah. I talk about fusion a lot 2887 00:53:13,839 --> 00:53:14,470 >> Exactly. Yeah.

And then that's had 2890 00:53:15,910 --> 00:53:15,920 >> Breakthrough. Yeah. And then that's had 2891 00:53:15,920 --> 00:53:18,710 >> Breakthrough. Yeah. And then that's had a breakthrough. Not my field, but uh but 2892 00:53:18,710 --> 00:53:18,720 a breakthrough. Not my field, but uh but 2893 00:53:18,720 --> 00:53:21,109 a breakthrough. Not my field, but uh but that's fantastic. Yeah. My understanding 2894 00:53:21,109 --> 00:53:21,119 that's fantastic. Yeah. My understanding 2895 00:53:21,119 --> 00:53:25,190 that's fantastic. Yeah. My understanding is that we not even that recently hit uh 2896 00:53:25,190 --> 00:53:25,200 is that we not even that recently hit uh 2897 00:53:25,200 --> 00:53:28,390 is that we not even that recently hit uh hit um break even output with one of the 2898 00:53:28,390 --> 00:53:28,400 hit um break even output with one of the 2899 00:53:28,400 --> 00:53:29,990 hit um break even output with one of the tokamaxs. I don't remember what it was, 2900 00:53:29,990 --> 00:53:30,000 tokamaxs. I don't remember what it was, 2901 00:53:30,000 --> 00:53:31,670 tokamaxs. I don't remember what it was, but I I don't know.

I mean I loved your inter 2932 00:54:06,630 --> 00:54:06,640 >> good science. I mean I loved your inter 2933 00:54:06,640 --> 00:54:08,309 >> good science. I mean I loved your inter interactions with Ben Davidson which 2934 00:54:08,309 --> 00:54:08,319 interactions with Ben Davidson which 2935 00:54:08,319 --> 00:54:11,109 interactions with Ben Davidson which have been so so similar to mine and the 2936 00:54:11,109 --> 00:54:11,119 have been so so similar to mine and the 2937 00:54:11,119 --> 00:54:12,790 have been so so similar to mine and the guy is an absolute pussycat. When you 2938 00:54:12,790 --> 00:54:12,800 guy is an absolute pussycat. When you 2939 00:54:12,800 --> 00:54:15,270 guy is an absolute pussycat. When you get him in a corner he knows absolutely 2940 00:54:15,270 --> 00:54:15,280 get him in a corner he knows absolutely 2941 00:54:15,280 --> 00:54:17,829 get him in a corner he knows absolutely nothing. Um, but I mean the these 2942 00:54:17,829 --> 00:54:17,839 nothing. Um, but I mean the these 2943 00:54:17,839 --> 00:54:19,510 nothing. Um, but I mean the these people, these charlatans who put 2944 00:54:19,510 --> 00:54:19,520 people, these charlatans who put 2945 00:54:19,520 --> 00:54:21,829 people, these charlatans who put themselves out there as gurus who who 2946 00:54:21,829 --> 00:54:21,839 themselves out there as gurus who who 2947 00:54:21,839 --> 00:54:23,270 themselves out there as gurus who who say, "I know everything. I know better 2948 00:54:23,270 --> 00:54:23,280 say, "I know everything. I know better 2949 00:54:23,280 --> 00:54:25,109 say, "I know everything.

So, I would urge everybody um to to listen to the science that you're 2956 00:54:33,109 --> 00:54:33,119 to to listen to the science that you're 2957 00:54:33,119 --> 00:54:36,069 to to listen to the science that you're um putting out there and learn how to 2958 00:54:36,069 --> 00:54:36,079 um putting out there and learn how to 2959 00:54:36,079 --> 00:54:39,030 um putting out there and learn how to deal with the these um conspiracy 2960 00:54:39,030 --> 00:54:39,040 deal with the these um conspiracy 2961 00:54:39,040 --> 00:54:40,630 deal with the these um conspiracy theorists who are getting a lot of their 2962 00:54:40,630 --> 00:54:40,640 theorists who are getting a lot of their 2963 00:54:40,640 --> 00:54:42,950 theorists who are getting a lot of their science off the internet. Um, I think 2964 00:54:42,950 --> 00:54:42,960 science off the internet. Um, I think 2965 00:54:42,960 --> 00:54:44,630 science off the internet. Um, I think that would be, you know, the best way 2966 00:54:44,630 --> 00:54:44,640 that would be, you know, the best way 2967 00:54:44,640 --> 00:54:46,630 that would be, you know, the best way that we can combat it. 2968 00:54:46,630 --> 00:54:46,640 that we can combat it. 2969 00:54:46,640 --> 00:54:49,910 that we can combat it. >> I agree. Yeah. Everybody watch me more. 2970 00:54:49,910 --> 00:54:49,920 >> I agree. Yeah. Everybody watch me more. 2971 00:54:49,920 --> 00:54:52,390 >> I agree. Yeah. Everybody watch me more. No, I agree. I mean, it is it is what 2972 00:54:52,390 --> 00:54:52,400 No, I agree. I mean, it is it is what 2973 00:54:52,400 --> 00:54:54,309 No, I agree. I mean, it is it is what I've kind of come to to realize is that 2974 00:54:54,309 --> 00:54:54,319 I've kind of come to to realize is that 2975 00:54:54,319 --> 00:54:56,390 I've kind of come to to realize is that this is all an optics game and you do 2976 00:54:56,390 --> 00:54:56,400 this is all an optics game and you do 2977 00:54:56,400 --> 00:54:58,230 this is all an optics game and you do have these very specific bad faith 2978 00:54:58,230 --> 00:54:58,240 have these very specific bad faith 2979 00:54:58,240 --> 00:54:59,910 have these very specific bad faith actors that are trying to polarize the 2980 00:54:59,910 --> 00:54:59,920 actors that are trying to polarize the 2981 00:54:59,920 --> 00:55:02,309 actors that are trying to polarize the public against uh against the scientific 2982 00:55:02,309 --> 00:55:02,319 public against uh against the scientific 2983 00:55:02,319 --> 00:55:03,910 public against uh against the scientific community, against legitimate sources of 2984 00:55:03,910 --> 00:55:03,920 community, against legitimate sources of 2985 00:55:03,920 --> 00:55:05,829 community, against legitimate sources of information. Um, and it's all for for 2986 00:55:05,829 --> 00:55:05,839 information. Um, and it's all for for 2987 00:55:05,839 --> 00:55:08,710 information. Um, and it's all for for profit. So, um, this to me, I've said 2988 00:55:08,710 --> 00:55:08,720 profit. So, um, this to me, I've said 2989 00:55:08,720 --> 00:55:09,990 profit. So, um, this to me, I've said this in a lot of my videos, this is 2990 00:55:09,990 --> 00:55:10,000 this in a lot of my videos, this is 2991 00:55:10,000 --> 00:55:13,030 this in a lot of my videos, this is where the the war is being waged is, um, 2992 00:55:13,030 --> 00:55:13,040 where the the war is being waged is, um, 2993 00:55:13,040 --> 00:55:14,710 where the the war is being waged is, um, is on the internet. It's a war of 2994 00:55:14,710 --> 00:55:14,720 is on the internet. It's a war of 2995 00:55:14,720 --> 00:55:17,750 is on the internet. It's a war of information. Um, and so that's that's 2996 00:55:17,750 --> 00:55:17,760 information. Um, and so that's that's 2997 00:55:17,760 --> 00:55:19,109 information. Um, and so that's that's where that's where I'm at. That's where 2998 00:55:19,109 --> 00:55:19,119 where that's where I'm at. That's where 2999 00:55:19,119 --> 00:55:21,030 where that's where I'm at. That's where I spend all my time. And, uh, seems like 3000 00:55:21,030 --> 00:55:21,040 I spend all my time. And, uh, seems like 3001 00:55:21,040 --> 00:55:22,790 I spend all my time. And, uh, seems like you as well. So, I think we're we're in 3002 00:55:22,790 --> 00:55:22,800 you as well. So, I think we're we're in 3003 00:55:22,800 --> 00:55:23,349 you as well. So, I think we're we're in the right 3004 00:55:23,349 --> 00:55:23,359 the right 3005 00:55:23,359 --> 00:55:24,630 the right >> Well, I mean, I think if you look at 3006 00:55:24,630 --> 00:55:24,640 >> Well, I mean, I think if you look at 3007 00:55:24,640 --> 00:55:27,670 >> Well, I mean, I think if you look at public polling surveys, the message is 3008 00:55:27,670 --> 00:55:27,680 public polling surveys, the message is 3009 00:55:27,680 --> 00:55:28,710 public polling surveys, the message is getting through. I think people are 3010 00:55:28,710 --> 00:55:28,720 getting through. I think people are 3011 00:55:28,720 --> 00:55:31,829 getting through. I think people are beginning to understand it now. You 3012 00:55:31,829 --> 00:55:31,839 beginning to understand it now. You 3013 00:55:31,839 --> 00:55:33,589 beginning to understand it now. You know, there's more support for action on 3014 00:55:33,589 --> 00:55:33,599 know, there's more support for action on 3015 00:55:33,599 --> 00:55:35,430 know, there's more support for action on climate than there ever was. 3016 00:55:35,430 --> 00:55:35,440 climate than there ever was. 3017 00:55:35,440 --> 00:55:38,069 climate than there ever was. >> Yeah. And in general, I see this like 3018 00:55:38,069 --> 00:55:38,079 >> Yeah. And in general, I see this like 3019 00:55:38,079 --> 00:55:41,270 >> Yeah. And in general, I see this like where the COVID era plummeted plummeted 3020 00:55:41,270 --> 00:55:41,280 where the COVID era plummeted plummeted 3021 00:55:41,280 --> 00:55:43,910 where the COVID era plummeted plummeted us into a local minimum of of of science 3022 00:55:43,910 --> 00:55:43,920 us into a local minimum of of of science 3023 00:55:43,920 --> 00:55:45,430 us into a local minimum of of of science denial and distrust of the scientific 3024 00:55:45,430 --> 00:55:45,440 denial and distrust of the scientific 3025 00:55:45,440 --> 00:55:47,109 denial and distrust of the scientific community. I think we're finally seeing 3026 00:55:47,109 --> 00:55:47,119 community. I think we're finally seeing 3027 00:55:47,119 --> 00:55:48,870 community. I think we're finally seeing the pendulum swing the other way a 3028 00:55:48,870 --> 00:55:48,880 the pendulum swing the other way a 3029 00:55:48,880 --> 00:55:50,230 the pendulum swing the other way a little bit. I think we're seeing the 3030 00:55:50,230 --> 00:55:50,240 little bit. I think we're seeing the 3031 00:55:50,240 --> 00:55:51,750 little bit. I think we're seeing the ramifications of what that science 3032 00:55:51,750 --> 00:55:51,760 ramifications of what that science 3033 00:55:51,760 --> 00:55:54,150 ramifications of what that science denial brought us and everyone's kind of 3034 00:55:54,150 --> 00:55:54,160 denial brought us and everyone's kind of 3035 00:55:54,160 --> 00:55:56,230 denial brought us and everyone's kind of snapping to attention and and a lot more 3036 00:55:56,230 --> 00:55:56,240 snapping to attention and and a lot more 3037 00:55:56,240 --> 00:55:58,630 snapping to attention and and a lot more scientists uh are are becoming more 3038 00:55:58,630 --> 00:55:58,640 scientists uh are are becoming more 3039 00:55:58,640 --> 00:55:59,990 scientists uh are are becoming more vocal than ever before because they're 3040 00:55:59,990 --> 00:56:00,000 vocal than ever before because they're 3041 00:56:00,000 --> 00:56:02,150 vocal than ever before because they're like, "Oh my gosh, this got so bad so 3042 00:56:02,150 --> 00:56:02,160 like, "Oh my gosh, this got so bad so 3043 00:56:02,160 --> 00:56:04,069 like, "Oh my gosh, this got so bad so fast.
