How We Almost Stopped Climate Change 30 Years Ago
never thought you would be back...
Imagine if gore won instead of bush just sprouting nonsense while not doing anything from 2001-2009
He would have probably had a divided government.
Yeah, 8 years after, you got Obama - who admittedly was not much of a climate advocate, and too much of a ponderer to take very big steps inside USA. To his account, his administration was instrumental in making the 2015 Paris deal on climate, but he didn't take any definitieve steps towards changing energy politics.
But why didn't Gore step into Clinton's office, stating I'm not moving out here unless you do something real about climate.
But that's what we call talking backwards.
Wow, you finally came back. 👏, don't stop making videos
More to come!
@@TDC_TheDocumentaryChannel awesome, been waiting, buts that's ok. Been a subscriber for over 5 years. Love your content
Welcome back to YT Bryce. I've really missed your voice.
Thanks Abb, sorry this one took so long!
God bless this man, Rafe :) ... talk about someone strong-willed and knowledgeable. Thank you for this historical view - I had no idea of the entry point of climate change, and unfortunately where it really went off track
In his talk on Limehouse Podcast Jan 16, 2022, Rafe introduced the idea of putting actual fysica l limits on climate change.
Like, if London has to be evacuated at such so many feet of sea level rise, we'll have to stay under such and so many ppm carbon. Might that point been already crossed , we'll have to get back. London Board might develop such goals to put pressure on the government.
Same for having snow and glaciers in what today are wintersport resorts.
I wouldn't be surprised, If such limits are calculated, the current fossilized I mean fossilist governor of Florida would find quickly he'd better draw up a plan.
In the above podcast, Rafe gave the example of Cambridge, Mass , which is rather low lying, with lots of climate conscious liberal scientists working, yet has no plan whatsoever to what level rise of waters is still acceptable to this locus of many a reputation in science. Harvard, MIT...
Actually can't blame a likely candidate for president, to deny the science, if scientist's main hub in USA doesn't take the science that serious, and hasn't any plan.
Interesting video, well researched and presented.
Glad it was helpful!
Love your voice. Love your content. It's good to have you back after so long. Hope you find time to keep making more. Cheers.
Thank you, Ankit! Will do!
I'm happy to see you are back.
Pandora’s box is wide open on climate and its change. Also examples like public healthcare, transport, media, finance, housing, safety nets, and so on. The time, money, and freedom to live with some dignity, to address these topics, too, is this "NOW". History is teaching us the same lesson, all over again, repeatedly. Who knows, we might not even learn it the second, third, or fourth time around. But the world, laughing in horror, in astonishment, in this bewilderment, really should.
Mr. Bryce I love your channel. I enjoy watching all the topics on your channel, the Mega cities videos , as well as the climate change ones, and all the others. 😊
Love your videos man, thank you!
I appreciate that!
🤡
Pretty sad that you dont get as many views as before but still really high quality! Keep up the work!
Hey, thanks!
this needs more views.
I tought it would be something like “They decided to nuke everything”
are you ever going to bring back the Megacities series?
Yes, hopefully sometime later this year. My next videos will explore the Megaprojects in the new infrastructure bill...
Without the dislike button how can I know if this is worth my time?
View to like ratio
with browser add ons you, for the moment, still can. At this moment it´s 12 dislikes
well. Never should have had it. i remember when you could rate a video by stars. lolol
Didn't someone point out climate change back in the 1920s? It's been known about for 100 years and still very little has been done
Wow. The channel is great. But this video desveres 18 million views. Not 18,000. It’s a shame. Your work here is important even compared to some of the most informative videos
Thanks so much Tanner, I think so too.
Really like your new content! Never heard about these things before! And don’t listen too people who “misSeS yOuR oLd ConTenT”, you will find a new fan base who appreciate what you’re doing. There’s plenty of channels focusing on climate change and new innovation in that field. Keep up the great work, glad your back! Sooner or later you’ll break the algorithm
Thanks for the encouragement, Herman!
Nice
Ac literally transfers heat to atmosphere. Changes in refrigerants were money driven.
RESPEKT
0:11 An oil guy, an environmentalist? Clearly counterintuitive or a joke😁
Hi
Almost solved… ?!
Sununu the first climate denier!
pas mal le support ?
merci
excellent video, but so depressing how America's lust for capitalism has come to destroy the planet
Just stop covering it as alarmist.
Lmfao !! You people are the problem...
That must have been because of the HAARP project, right? 🤣🤣🤣
Strange title for a video... 😏
Shallow propaganda. 'Only environmentalist '?
i used to hate john sonnunu. but now i love 💕 him.
oh, yes, because causing the world to be destroyed by his paranoia was such a great legacy to leave.
Oh yes, climate change, the 50 year old emergency that is always 5 years away from the collapse of humanity 🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣🤡. Climate clowns
This used to be an interesting channel about ambitious megaprojects. How far it's fallen
Hi Ryan, I'm glad you thought the Megaprojects videos were interesting! The good news is my next video will cover the megaprojects unlocked by the US infrastructure bill that was just passed.
Solving Climate change is the most ambitious megaproject of our time
@@DeXyClarke Agreed.
It’s always been a political channel. Mega projects are political…
@@TheLifeisgood72 how is climate change political? Saying its political is like saying the color of the sky is political. Or are scientific facts a political thing now
