  • Explore how greenhouse gas emissions impact global warming and why it’s necessary to get emissions down to net zero.
    --
    Since 1850, global average temperatures have risen by 1 degree Celsius. That may not sound like a lot, but it is. Why? 1 degree is an average. Many places have already gotten much warmer and if average temperatures increase one more degree, the coldest nights in the Arctic might get 10 degrees warmer. So how did we get here? And what can be done? Explore the challenges of net zero emissions.

    I live in Texas and we have just suffered one of the worst widespread infrastructure failures due to severe weather. During Winter Storm Uri millions of people were left without power for heating in temperatures as low as -2°F(-18.9°C). My house was without power for 60 hours in temperatures well below freezing. Thousands more are still currently without power! The ultimate irony is that Texas is an energy and natural gas giant thanks to the Permian Shale and other deposits. We pride ourselves on being self reliant in terms of energy and remaining isolated from the electrical grid of other States. Natural gas is mostly drilled on demand and not stored for usage later because there is more profit margin that way. My friend who has experience with natural gas pipelines told me a few days before the storm hit that the delivery system for natural gas would freeze, and he was absolutely right. To add to that, water pipes have burst from water expansion in the freezing temperatures, leading many cities to issue a boiling order for water before consumption. It is a disaster. News stories are running different stories on both sides, the right is pointing to wind turbines freezing but that's only 16GW of the total 46GW that went offline when the storm hit. The rest of the power is from natural gas, coal, and nuclear energy (30GW). Both sides did not account for weatherproofing, because who would have thought that temperatures could drop so low in Texas!!! There is no incentive for private companies to do this and there's little regulation and oversight because...you know...Texas. The grid was so close to overloading that we were literally minutes away from a statewide blackout which would have shut us down for weeks and maybe months!!! When its citizens needed it the most, Texas, who produces the most energy of any state in the United States, failed to deliver energy to its own. Some people have already frozen to death, a few have even resorted to burning their valuables just to keep warm. Main point of the story is: listen to the scientists' warnings! When the vast majority of the most learned minds on the globe are telling you that climate change is real, don't deny it, inform others and be informed. This was a wake up call for everyone living in Texas.

      Yes indeed we need a moral for eating and being mental healthy. " If you place a frog in a pot of boiling water, it will imediately try to scramble out. But if you place the frog in a room temperature water, and don´t scare him, he´l stay put. Now if the pot sits on a heat source and if you gradually turn up temperature , the frog WILL. be groggier and groggier until is unable to climb out from the pot "

    by this point, who doesn't even know about global warming? At least for those who speak english, almost everybody knows.
    However as simple as it could be, the actual solution for it isn't. Poor people who struggle to think about what to eat tomorrow don't have the luxury of thinking about global climate. People who just got fired thanks to the virus and are now struggling to meet ends daily don't have the luxury of spending more for cleaner energy. The solution for global warming is as complex as it gets. This is something that needs to be addressed down to individual level. And when things get personal, there can be no one simple solution for all.

    • @fyang1429
      @fyang1429 Před 3 lety +1

      I used to make this argument back in middle school, and it sure is outdated. It is a problem for everyone since global warming directly impacts everyone (e.g. heatwaves killing cows hurting Texan farmers, increased extreme weather damage cities and cost taxpayer money). There are plenty of reasons that the poor should care - they don't even have to pay much for it, the money can be obtained from taxing richer people a bit more instead.

    • @kueapel911
      @kueapel911 Před 3 lety

      @@fyang1429 funny how you claim that the viewpoint I offered as outdated, or sounds more like you're implying that it's *naive* since you claimed that you "thought" about it since middle school. But then your argument suddenly devolve, and gets extremely naive in so many ways.
      First of all, human nature doesn't work like that. How do you expect the poor to care, if the thing they need the most is a stable way to provide food on their table? Spreading awareness? Gee, if only that'd work, there'll be no thousands of this kind of videos circulating around desperately trying. What kind of impact do you think global warming have to their table? The answer is none. At least not directly enough to be perceived as such. Zero person from any poor family cares about global climate. Do you think that using less plastic and spend less time driving tractors and trucks would benefit them in any way other than harm? No.
      2nd, there's malice hinted at your comment.
      *"taxing richer people a bit more instead"*
      Sounds good for a disgruntled unsatisfied low income people, but any well educated and adequately experienced person knows that taxing the rich doesn't mean that the money will directly benefit the poor. It's an indirect flow that got corrupted by a fairly large portion through each instances it passes before it eventually goes to some kind of irrelevant institution that somehow benefit the poor. If there'd be anyone I'd trust to feed the poor, it wouldn't be the governments. Why do I know this? I've been the poor the earlier half of my life. I've only been recently moved up to middle upper level of wealth, ever since I graduated from my computer science degree and got a steady job. As a chinese couple, each of my parents have always been working more than 80 hours a week just to provide me with my education. Do you know how much of it came from the government and their taxation policy? None. If any, I'd like less tax for my current income since I've personally experienced the so called government aid and public "free healthcare" that's so awesome that it takes 3 months before my mom's broken hands get treated so she need to be operated since it's neglected and healed the wrong way.
      3rd, matters like this cannot be simplified in any way. Adding government into it won't solve the problem. In contrary, they create problem. How many people lost their job due to their attempt to "reduce co2 emission"? With that amount of people suddenly losing their job gets poorer, I'm not surprised if the co2 emission they'd produce would exceed the hypothetical amount of co2 emission the government try to cut.
      TL;DR your comment is so oxymoronic that I couldn't help but mention it. Seen the bigger, critical picture of the problem at middle school, but devolved into lesser abstraction of the problem as you grow older. Almost as if your claim is entirely made up, made to trivialize the argument presented before you, so you can blabber out the common mainstream argument without properly thinking about it.

      Hate to burst your bubble but I’m going to point out that it is idiotic to believe Elon Musk is doing something. Tesla cars have already been proven to be more harmful to the environment (due to their enormous lithium batteries) and due to the fact that the majority of the United States’ energy comes from fossil fuels (the majority is natural gas). So before you charge that Tesla naively believing that you are doing a favor to the environment, remember the toxic wastes that were needed to make that lithium battery you are charging and remember that the electricity you are using most probably came from a fossil fuel.
