    Restoring Arctic Ice: Connect pipe segments that are 20 feet in diameter and 30 feet long together to have them extend to 30 feet of the ocean floor. Each having its own floatation to make it neutrally buoyant. A pump at the top would only have to pump out the top 4 feet of the ocean water before the capillary effect would start bringing up the colder water from the ocean floor. Position one thousand of these pipes along the edge of the ice sheet to have colder water contacting the ice sheet and slowing the summer melting. The winter would expand the ice sheet, slower melt in the summer would have the sheet expand more every year.
    The Grow-Live Tower: A cylindrical structure that has a central support column, periphery support columns around its circumference, and suspension cables/chains connecting the two to support the floor levels. The lower 20 levels are where the people live in all electric luxury accommodations, the upper 60 levels are greenhouse levels that provide the food the people need. The Power Multiplier Devices travel up and down the outside of the periphery columns to provide continuous energy. Less that 500,000 of these tower/generators would house the entire population of the United States. If the world embraced them it would mean the end of world hunger, homelessness. Global disease would drop 85% due to improved living conditions. Water conservation would increase 10,000%, mankind's footprint would decrease by 60%. Plus much more.
    The open sourced, gravity driven, continuous motion, free energy generator known as the Power Multiplier Device:
    Power Multiplier Device, last resize (I hope)-overunity.com
    Functions as follows:
    Small motor draws energy from the battery to turn a large bicycle-type wheel clockwise, turning the drive sprocket clockwise also because both share the same axle. This has the drive sprocket climb the chain, taking the whole assembly with its 2,000 pounds of weights. Three things now happen:
    1) The motor takes the assembly to the top of the chain with its 400 pound pull, taking 1 hour to do so, requiring the energy amount from the battery. Energy Expended going up. EE/up= 1 hour pull of 400 pounds from the battery.
    2) As the assembly is climbing the chain, it's heavy weight (2,000 lbs.) is still hanging/pulling on the chain, pulling the chain down which turns the transmission/generator, producing a full charge of energy going back into the battery. Energy generated going up, EG/Up = 1 hour of a 2,000 pound pull by the heavy mechanism.
    3) When the assembly reaches the top the small motor shuts off and the assembly's weight slowly begins to descend, pulling the chain down with it. Since it climbed the chain faster than it pulled the chain down, its descent will take longer than 1 hour for its energy generated down charge into the battery. EG/Down = 1+ hour of a 2,000 pound pull charging into the battery.
    EE/Up 1 hour of a 400 pound pull < EG/UP (1 hour of a 2,000 pound pull charge into the battery) + EG/Down (1+ hours of the 2,000 pound pull charge into the battery) = FE, EE/UP < (EG/UP + EG/Down) = FE.
    With a heavier weight:
    1) The motor takes the assembly to the top of the chain, taking 3 minutes to do so, requiring the energy amount from the battery that is represented by the expression 1N. Energy expended going up. EE/up=1N.
    2) As the assembly is climbing the chain, it's heavy weight is still hanging/pulling on the chain, pulling the chain down which turns the transmission/generator, producing a full charge of energy going back into the battery. Energy generated going up, EG/up=.4N.
    3) When the assembly reaches the top, the small motor shuts off and the assembly's weight slowly begins to descend, pulling the chain down with it. This descent takes 10 times longer than the ascent due to the heavy weight of the assembly, and the low gearing of the transmission, it 'creeps' down.
    In 3 minutes going up, .4N was charged back into the battery. In 6 minutes going down .8N will be charged into the battery, replacing all of the energy the small motor expended. The remaining 24 minutes of the descent will charge 3.2N into the battery, Energy generated going down, EG/down=3.2N energy not needed for the mechanism's operation, free energy.
    EE/up < (EG/up + EG/down) = FE, or, 1N < (.4N + 4N) = 3.4N FE
    Connecting another PMD having more weight to the lower sprocket of the first will produce more energy. The chain goes around the lower sprocket of the first one, and up around the bicycle type of the second, so the lower sprocket of the first one is acting like the small motor does to turn the first one’s bicycle type wheel. A swing arm is place between the two wheels to play out more chain as the second PMD’s bicycle type wheel ascends. Then a third PMD connected to the second….
    This will decentralize the grid using home generation modules, end fossil fuel energy plants, end nuclear, solar, wind, ocean energy generation plants. It will also allow for cars that recharge themselves as they travel down the road with modified PMDs.

    The problem isn't cows, or other livestock. It's the scale of it all, which requires food be trucked in and waste WAY over accumulates- which converts it from a useful soil health component to a toxic pile or pool of infectious sludge- and requires mass feed production elsewhere and shipping because the overly population dense livestock, requires massive everything with huge fuel requirements and tons of shipping and packaging machinery etc. It's the scale of the production systems that is off. We need more farmers, not new food or bigger farms, not indoor farms that use fertilizer and electricity like crazy, none of this nonsense. Many more small farms. How do we get it? BUY YOUR FOOD FROM SMALL FARMS where you can see with your own eyes how the food gets made.

      I agree with you brother, but most of them don't live within an economical distance, or have the means to travel to get fresh produce or meat. The government has engineered it this way. How do we combat that? A farmer in 1950 fed 25 people (65% rural) in 2021 he fed 155 people (33% rural). Oh, and there is no "Climate Crisis".....:)

      The problem IS cows, other livestock AND the scale of it. Plant based food can create much more food with less resourses in a more sustainable way. Wether it can be perfectly nutritious for everyone, I'm not totally sure, but I'm sure especially in the western world we could probably all cut most of the animal products we consume and maybe do with a few local options for animal products. And many people go full vegan of course, including myself, so that, or something close to it, is always an option, as long as you are aware of health and nutrition and knowing a little about cooking certainly doesn't hurt either.

    During the Stone Era, abundant trees and plants could be seen everywhere, gradually making the Earth colder.
    However, in this era, logging and wildfires🔥 are reducing oxygen-producing trees, leading to climate change.
    Planting more trees can help reverse these losses and cool the Earth again. 🌲🌳🌴

      Nature based solutions are almost irrelevant. The scale is too large, the co2 legacy is too big. Even if you plant a billion, heck a hundret billion trees right now it will have 0 impact. We will have to at least pay humanitys energy bill from the last 150 years all over again, and that is assuming 100% efficiency. And then you still havent actually stored the carbon. Even with full global support it would be almost impossible. This thing will take its course, dont try to prevent, that ship has sailed. Prepare.

    Baby steps really aren't going to tip the scale to our advantage. The core cause of man-made climate change is "profit = income - expenses". This old profit model treats the entire environment, which also includes all of us, as nothing more than expenses. As we all should know, businesses 'must' avoid and or eliminate as many expenses as possible. If we want to reverse man-made climate change, we must first change what we mean by "economic expenses". The only way we can achieve that is by changing the definition of profit.
    How about this: "Profit = protecting and enriching the environment, and sharing the sustenance that it provides to all of us". This new profit model changes the meaning of economic expenses because it makes protecting and enriching the environment our main objective. This new profit model will create millions of new jobs that will come under the heading "Caretakers of the Environment". Caretakers will receive higher wages then most other workers; additionally, there will always be a very high demand for Caretakers so that we can meet our main objective.
    If we attempt to reduce or reverse man-made climate change without first correcting the meaning of "economic expenses" then our efforts will not only fail, but will actually worsen the climate change crisis.
    p.s. Bear in mind that all of our 'baby step' projects are going to be wiped away by mega storms and plate tectonic shifts before we even know what hit us, unless we first address the real core cause of man-made climate change which I have outlined in this comment. 💖

While climate change has always been a thing. We are definitely causing significant damage. She said we are in fact causing serious problems for the environment. Denial doesn’t change the fact that physical evidence shows our impact on the planet.

    Scare reporting using images from years ago.
    Here is a list of items that contribute to Climate change or also known as Global Warming:
    1. Gasoline and Diesel vehicles
    2. Volcanic eruptions
    3. Which way the Jet Stream moves
    4. Manufacturing plants
    5. Sun’s solar eruptions
    6. Animal waste discharge
    7. Earth’s changes in rotation
    8. Earth’s changes in orbit around the Sun
    9. War’s past, present and future
    10. Meteorite hits
    We can only control 1, 4 and 9. We will still have ‘Climate Change’ that we cannot control.
    Is this really something to worry about? What about the claim that the ice caps are melting. Is that important? Where did the ice for the ice caps come from? Wasn’t the Arctic and Antarctic areas a warm jungle-like land with dinosaurs roaming? Wasn’t most of North America covered by the ocean?
    Remember these so called ‘Predictions’?:
    1960’s - Oil will be gone in 10 years.
    1970’s - Get ready for an Ice Age next 10 years.
    1980’s - Acid rain will destroy crops in 10 years.
    1990’s - The Ozone layer will be destroyed in 10 years. (Social Security funding will run out in 10 years.)
    2000’s - Global warming will melt the icecaps in 10 years.
    What happened? More scare tactics and reporting.
