- This is a talk that everyone has to watch. In the real world, we have to make real trade-offs between climate security, energy poverty, and energy security. Energy is necessary for lifting much of the world out of poverty, however, climate concerns are also real considerations. We need to start a constructive, and honest conversation about these trade-offs.
Dr Scott Tinker is the director of the Bureau of Economic Geology, the State Geologist of Texas, professor at The University of Texas at Austin, Chairman of the Switch Energy Alliance, and CEO of Tinker Energy Associates.

After hearing all that WEF nonsense - eat bugs - own nothing - magically be happy - be a QR code - be shut out of economy on a whim - be chipped - be under global communism - be vaccinated non stop etc.... this is brilliant, common sense, inclusive, hopeful, and inspiring - something humanity can get behind. God bless ARC.
It’s better, for sure.
Great to see Scott here. I read the study commissioned by the DOE that Scott helped author on natural gas reserves in the 4 major US shale plays. As the US consumes around 30 trillion cubic feet of natural gas per year looks like, according to Scott’s study we’re lucky to have 50 years worth left.
Add the fact we’re exporting 12.5 billion cubic feet per day (enough to heat 60 million American homes every day) so the IS exporters can make higher profits while the US domestic price rises and anyone with sense knows we better develop all forms of energy ASAP.
Yes
spot on
I would rather be left alone by everyone....sure it's all nice but still not leaving me alone.
"Watch what they do, not what they say". Words to live by.
Great line in the middle of his misinformation. His career has been in oil and gas and he's being paid by oil and gas companies to spread the garbage keynote around the world. He totally ignoring the biggest parts of renewables story or any of the modern innovations in renewable energy. Solar panel farms no longer get knocked out by hail or snow, wind turbines are not getting barred. 95% of EV car batteries are recycled meaning they don't need to be mined over and over again. Nuclear is making a come back. All facts he is leaving out. I can go on and on about 100 things he's leaving out.
This cannot be repeated, and emphasized, often enough. A flock of private jets arriving at a climate conference should signal in every thinking mind, 'These people are not serious about this supposed problem'. The wealthy who take time to talk up rising sea levels buying waterfront property should signal in every thinking mind, 'These people are not serious about this supposed problem'.
Yes! Every single time! Also made me think of the covid days when politicians told us to stay home, as they went on vacations and had parties.
Because they had the information that ensured them it was OK to do so.@@kimj5037
@@kimj5037 I couldn't agree more with the sentence and your statement -but then I really wonder why we still (in general) always vote people into power that don't walk the talk?
This was rather depressing but unbelievably eye-opening. I love talks like this that can turn your whole perspective on a subject upside down without demonizing anyone in the process. These are the types of honest discussions that should be driving policies. Thank you!
I'm no scientists, I'm just an electronics major. But I have been making the same arguments for years. All you need to do is look at a chart of energy density by source. The answers are clear. Nuclear, with all it's trade-offs, is still the ONLY technology that exists today that can possibly solve the world's need for energy (NEED, not want), while reducing emissions enough to matter on a global scale. Why? Energy density. Simple Joules per Kg of material. Then compare it to Lithium-Ion battery storage. Anyone who can do basic arithmetic can see that it's the only way out of the trap. Even then, we still need portable sources of energy, and when you compare Gasoline/Diesel/Natural Gas to Li-Ion or Solar you see why we still use it.
What was it that did turn your perspective?
The whole Idea that we should not demoralize our enemies and lock them up for these crimes, does nothing to stop this catastrophic explosion of my Country. I love the demoralizing impact on Jo Bidden that is apparent and welcome. He was evil before the decline in Cerebral Health. The people are supposed to be involved at a very angry degree , much contempt for this Revolutionary government trashing the Peoples Country, Giving it all away, under our noses
@@nielsnijmegen2917it must have been the size of coal used in China and the one in India still to come.
Reduction of CO2 simply cannot be done.
Greetings from Germany, where we would know how to reduce energy consumption, but our government is standing against this…
@@broonkhavar1461 1. In a country like Denmark, wind power provides more than 50% of all electricity. 2. Electric mobility is a reality. So your simple evaluation is incorrect. Throw it away! For even more energy-consuming processes: ever thought of better appliances, with lower energy consumption?
This is just common sense. What's amazing is how rare it is in today's world.
Common sense is truly the least common of all the senses.
"Common sense" is so rare because there isn't such a thing. There is only good sense and bad sense, and a whole lot more of the latter than the former.
This presentation should be shown in all colleges, institutions and schools.
Spot on
Won't happen. Colleges, institutions and schools deal in science and facts. ARC is just right wing political BS.
They’re no longer ready to. They’ve lost the ability to change their minds from the narrative they’ve been indoctrinated with. If this was presented at Stanford, for example, he’d be booed off the stage and assaulted with protesters. They are blind to being open minded enough to accept the reality of trade offs.
Agreed and this presentation should be shown to all members of governing bodies. Make sure AOC and others on the Left have front row seats
Prime time tv so people can actually see it
I only wish more people would listen to talks like this one - and specifically this one.
There need not be any emotional tie to this or any other so-called controversial topics.
How many people will say “I feel like…” and how many say “I think that…”
Last but not least, take the Thomas Sowell approach:
There are no solutions, only tradeoffs.
So we must ask ourselves these three questions.
1. At what cost?
2. Compared to what?
3. What data do we have to support?
This is a very sensible comment! Thank you
I asked a similar question to the climate change activists that goes: "you'll be ballin, and at what cost"? Then they treated me like I'm somehow a party pooper when I showed them their bills of open pit mining operations.
This is the most refreshing discussion about the climate I've seen in many many years.
I heard about a solar farm in Nebraska being completely destroyed by a hailstorm, leaving a toxic mess. A guy in the comments said he was actually on that committee to decide whether or not to install them in the first place, and the first thing he said was "Well, what about hailstorms?" The response he got was "Who said anything about hailstorms?"
Realizing the 'quality' of individuals he was dealing with, he noped the heck out and wanted nothing to do with it.
Did I mention the solar farm was built on land that had fertile soil that could have been used for crops, but now is completely ruined?
We are using some farmland in Florida also. Why not a cover for every parking lot? Closer to the grid.
Didn't that happen somewhat recently?
solar is a desert thing. don't build it on arable land. this isn't a hard thing to unless of course you put it to a committee. committee will install wind turbines under water under water and solar farms on the dark side of the moon.
Lmao.....
Reminds me of all the Teslas that got knocked out by a cold....
He had the chance to stop it but he covered his ass by leaving? Real great guy

Excellent presentation that is clear, engaging and entertaining. His statement reminded me of something Thomas Sowell said, “There are not solutions. Only trade offs”.
I thought the same thing, he had to have been referencing Dr. Sowell there.
Produce electricity using nuclear power. No trade off required.
@@Randsurfer Safety and long term storage of spent fuel is the trade off. ALL energy has some form of trade off.
True, but it’s concentrated in a containment facility, not in the atmosphere. Although if they can get molten salt reactors going they’ll be able to use the spent fuel for fission, produce more energy, and drastically decrease the half life of the fuel!
Why can't we dump all our shit into space?
One of the most instructive videos about energy I've seen on YT, ever. It should be shown to schools and universities, worldwide, to bring back rationality on the energy discourse. Thank you Dr Tinker!
This is old news. Consider broadening your information sources beyond CZcams. CZcams has started a practice of demonetizing and demoting any channel or video that varies from 'established opinion" in medicine. It's only a matter of time before that expands to science and any area where there is controversy.
So refreshing to see brave people talking about facts as they are. No cosmethics, no PC BS, just pure facts in your face. This is so rare in the western world nowadays. Good job!
This should be a Class at every level of school, to bring light and common sense to all.
Great lecture ARC.
A teacher attempts to teach my kids this rubbish, Won`t be teacher will be in jail as child abuser.
Interesting how everyone pushing climate change is trying to impoverish wealthy nations in the name of saving the planet when all observable evidence shows the solution is exactly the opposite.
When energy is no longer business yet available, mankind will have the potential (if not the desire) for peace and prosperity.

Mr. Scott, has a somewhat Robin Williams in him... great lecture! Thank you Mr. Scott
My goodness I was thinking the same thing! LoL Both very smart.
well, so it seems @@NobleFeatures
I thought the same thing!
I do wonder why there are so many actors in politics. I would say it is him because I dont believe or trust the mainstream narrative. Although I must say Obama made an amazing speech on this channel. The only climate change is a financial one and nothing to do with natural weather cycles.
Agreed!
The true art of science, never let a good story get in the way of the facts, because the facts tells the truth and a good story only plays with emotions. Scott's presentation uses the scientific facts to drive thinking emotions. So well presented.
Really??? This is 'the facts'?? As a former government forest scientist in Ontario, Canada who was fired in 1982 for daring to present THE FACTS about the abuse of Ontario's forests to see their demise despite warnings from forest scientists, this reminds me of the slick presentations of those who were only interested in protecting the status quo, no matter what the writing really was 'on the wall'. (By the way, as predicted by 1971, many of Canada's largest forest product mills had closed their doors, leaving devastated communities in their wake). Take one example of the deep hypocrisy behind this video. About 7 minutes in, Mr. Tinker credibly notes that 'poor countries cannot afford to clean up their environments'.... Real science does NOT exclude all the factors needed to be considered in any 'hypothesis' The reality IS that, for the sake of profiteering, only, vast resources on this planet have been removed from geographies that are now impoverished. This, unthankfully, comes at the hands of, as Mr. Tinker does imply, formerly rich nations which now teeter on the brink of major 'economic' crises BECAUSE they left so many parts of this planet impoverished, for their own gain. This FACT is something that big business, ESPECIALLY the Economic Geology field Mr. Tinker seems most vested in, refuse to acknowledge in slick presentations like this. Twenty minutes with slick pics does NOTHING to create 'civil dialogue' on a REAL PROBLEM facing our species. It merely serves to STEER the dialogue in the direction which the friends of 'the presenter' will sponsor and then applaud. Visit the ARC goals to understand WHY this is a major problem in this presentation. Don MacAlpine, formerly of Nipigon, Ontario CANADA
This commentary should be a must in main stream Education, and I think that our political establishment should take this class as well.
Why would our politicians want to? They already posses the knowledge and facts! So they think….Great presentation
As a geologist myself I really appreciated this presentation!
More geoscientists in debates please!
Sir, I agree and I'm inviting you to make it happen. You need to spread the word. Don't wait for someone to come knocking on your door. Best wishes and good luck.
What specifically did you appreciate about it? I found it borderline worthless.
@@Neilazbiker Thank you! In fact I already do it as a teacher. All the best!
@@Randsurfer Why because he doesnt give solutions? This is the start of a movement to counter the WEF and to counter the idiotic leadership we have around the world that are like puppets from the bigger corporations. Al this climate nonsence and the changes they have made so far are not solutions at all... its just moving the problem elsewhere. Its insane how many people fall or this ridicilous lies and leadership.
Critical thinking in people is rare.
@@Randsurfer Here's what I got out of Dr. Miller's presentation. 1) It's obvious that oil and gas won't last forever. We have an electric future, just not at the schedules mandated by the government. There's no way California can go full EV by 2035. They lack generating capacity, a grid, infrastructure, and automobile manufactures just can't make that many EV. We all know this. Last week Ford, GM and Toyota pulled out of the EV market. 2) The poor can't afford expensive solar and wind. The Admin has a policy of scarcity, keeping people poor. A better way is to help the people become more wealthy, then not only can they afford cleaner energy, they care more about the environment. 3) Remember the clean, reliable and abundant triangle? Everything pollutes. The clean energy is polluting. Everything is a tradeoff. Too me, nuclear is the most obvious least bad solution. 4) India is just get started and they already said to F... Off, they are going for coal. Nuclear would be better. 5) And this is just my point of view. I'm an engineer. Most of my friends are educated and to the left. They LOVE flying to Europe and Machu Pichu. Yet, all of them are concerned about the climate, want heavy mandates, but know they won't have to change their life styles much. They can afford it. If it's so bad, why don't they change? Stop flying? They all have $300/m electric bills. I want them to lead by example instead of mandating poverty to the poor and lower middle class. That's what I got out of it, a reminder that every source of energy is a tradeoff, stop exporting our pollution, and the poor can't afford clean energy. I hope this helps. All the best Landsurfer.
Excellent and honest overview of the energy situation worldwide. We need such wholistic perspectives to make actual progress.
Energy yust part of the hydrocarbon train, Most of what's we consume from medicine to clothing, food and they beloved wind and solar farms would not even exist with out the by product's of the coal and oil industry.
This speech is just pointless pessimism that doesn’t propose any practical solutions. We all know cutting emissions is difficult, otherwise we would have already done it.
What irks me is that JP actually posted a video titled Stop Renewable Energy. While RE is certainly no panacea or substitute for FF right now we need ALL forms of energy ASAP. JP deludes himself into believing the API minions that FF will get cheaper. They won’t.
@@ERobbins1234 He's just trying to keep the jobs in his hometown in Texas, 'cos that's who pays him.
@@ERobbins1234 Exactly, I don't think it is pessimism though but more like: "nothing will work or we go back to stone age so let's just try and hope for the best knowing that anyway we won't get there" but as he is not talking about the consequences and not proposing anything, there is no pessimism, just a status quo. And so to your point, completely pointless speech.
Mr Scott absolutely love this lecture, well spoken, easy for people to understand and no nonsense! For someone who for a long time have felt that we in the west are rushing headless into a climate panic and make many wrong decisions on the way, find your speech inspiring, that there are people out there, professional and educated who understand this as a whole. You give me back some hope and I wish that politicians and decision makers see this and understand what you say and maybe there could be a smarter way forward.
I think that we need to lower emissions, no question, but it needs to be done right, thought through and with a plan.
Thank you! 👍
Politicians are getting kick-backs from the so-called "green" energy developers. That and they want to control everything we do, and limiting our access to power makes that easier for them. Don't kid yourself - they know this information - they do what they do for power and control.
A clear and concise presentation. This should be presented at the WEF. They need educating.
This is a brilliant lecture that is wonderfully illustrated with exceptionally good slides.

Dr. Scott Tinker is lovely. This is the first I've seen/heard of him.
Hello from austria and thank you for the access to this kind of information.This topic is decades old and still going on.
Our postal trucks here in austria were electric allready in 1910 or something. There were also electric cars from 1905 like the Viktoria that could travel for 50 miles or 80 kilometers allready back then.
I was also lucky to run into a Dr. who was in his late 70's 3 years ago in Vienna who told me about working for the government on a project in the 60's.
While driving around the former minister back then in an electric car, the minister said to him something like "You will see, in the next 10 years Electric cars will rise to 10% to 20% of all cars". We are now coming to the end of 2023 and we were at 2.1% in reality while at the same time that is of course no real solution to anything.
The left vs right ramble has to stop and politics and education have to return back to where they were. Seperate from each other as much as possible.
When the time has come that professors get fired for asking and debating questions (and people in other fields of work) it is the time to ask questions rather than stop asking questions.
There is no need for a better climate when we accept Monsantos approach for example of creating a seed monopoly etc.
Politicians get elected for a reason and I can not understand why some managers have a law based responsibility but politicians don't.
Nobody is accountable for anything and nobody is actually nobodies boss.
What I found very interesting is, that someone like A. Getty sponsors the climate emergency fund which sponsory the climate glue people for example (who get paid and insurance for doing that by the way) while at the same time, her being in control of an oil empire her father built. Think about that.
In reality, the costs for energy are rising and I think that is the goal. Even going green has only money as the goal.
It is always because of money and this topic is no exception.
There is NO true EV. The electricity is probably generated from fossil fuels and the EV built in a factory using fossil fuels, etc

Extraordinary!!! I appreciate this talk! I cannot get my colleagues in Energy talking BS on energy transition, when it is obvious it is not at all sustainable as they claim. They sound more like people begging for a paycheck rather than actual professionals pursuing a significant, solid and sustainable solution.
I have been lecturing on this subject for decades.. but I think I am just going to share this from now on.. because this, is far bore concise (and probably effective) than I have ever been able to make these points. Thank you for this.

That Aristotle quote alone at the beginning was worth the watch.
Actually, isn't an Aristotle quote, more of a misquote or misattribution.
Thanks for sharing this! 💯 Explained so that many people can understand what we face.
If we could get everyone on both sides of the debate to sit down and listen to this articulate, intelligent man, we might just start to make some headway! Brilliant.
The information in this talk wouldn't really enlighten anybody, on either side, though; and it wouldn't somehow magically convince those with power, wealth, and influence, to want less of those things.
Except for the Tesla battery that can be and is being recycled today!!!
@@MyUniversalUniversity Because of the complexity of the recycling process, and the associated expenses; currently, just 5% of lithium-ion batteries are recycled.
Somehow this gentleman reminds of Robin Williams, not only physically (somewhat), but he is quick and witty; also very knowledgeable. Thank you for your input.
I observed the Robin Williams like also 😊
Me too 😊
Scott used to do talks at our geological meetings! He is spot on and informative!
Excellent speech!! I love “ have you seen a lithium mine”. This is so true. Electric vehicles with batteries that eventually die is not the solution
So far the only solutions that have any improvement are bEV or not driving at all. Or some combination thereof.
So if you are not a fan of EV then your choice is to stop driving and transportation.
The partner solution is to have low emissions generation like wind and solar, or stop using electricity.
Move toward low emissions refining and production, or stop consuming things.
Low emissions heating and cooling, or we just bundle up and start migrating again.
Those are the options and layers of solution options.
@@5353Jumper burying millions of dead batteries, wind turbine parts, getting rid of mechanics that have worked on gas vehicles for decades, getting rid of gas stations or any other job in the oil sector.......yup, EV's really sound like a great solution
@@johnnygreen7445 that or we all die from some microorganisms supplying our oxygen or food suddenly stops doing its job due to climate change.
@johnnygreen7445 also...
Batteries are recycled.
We are working on recycling wind turbines.
And yes, we are facing mass unemployment the next couple of decades because nearly every industry is reducing employment, and we are working to reduce consumption. One huge job loss will be in the petroleum and transportation industries for sure because the electrified alternatives and alternative generation are so much more efficient.
This is why the smart people of the world not considered "wealth elite" are pushing for a massive increase in the value of labor. The only way to avoid mass starvation is to go back to single income households, where any one full-time job can support a modest household. And more jobs are full-time jobs with benefits. Go back to the days when working in a retail store, or a restaurant, or a factory is enough to support a whole family household.
That is the only way to avoid mass starvation with the coming reduction in labor requirements.
But you know, the wealth elite will resist raising the value of labor harder than anything else we are pushing them to do, so we are kinda stuck in this fate.
But we will also face mass unemployment if the world falls to environmental disaster...so kinda a problem either way.

Your talk inspired me to include those elements in the next iteration... and I'll use some of your content to help guide the effort. Thanks.
That’s your take away from this presentation! Sounds more like the message you want to give to your students, not the one they need to receive.
'Putin went into Ukraine and said I'm gonna weaponise gas' ...think about that for a minute. When German industralists and Gasprom with the blessing of the German govt, financed via Austria, agreed on Nord gas pipeline projects, who objected? The US, but they are on the other side of the Atlantic. When Biden was questioned about Nord 2 he said that if Ukraine is attacked then we will find a way to stop Nord 2. Very interesting comment about freedom and democracy in a commercial setting. Food for thought. If you read Jacques Bord's analysis of eastern Ukraine you will find that Ukraine increased its bombing of the Donbass exponentially with more talk from Biden that 'Russia would invade'. Ramp up the pressure then shift blame quickly and invert the truth. This is a US modus operandi. After Nord 2 was destroyed Victoria Nuland said its now a huge hunk of metal at the bottom of the sea. Blinken said it was a great opportunity for the US as they and Norway started sending gas to Germany at inflated prices to get German industry off cheap gas and stop them developing good relations with Russia. Very clever. But this man from ARC who talks about 'education' does not appear to be educated or he would know. Read Seymour Hersh about Nord 2.
Did you think Biden would go against the winds of popular opinion? Windsock.
Finally! Thank you! Omg. I try to tell people this stuff but it's from a laymen with scattered bits of info that I'm delivering off-hand. Thank you.
A great presentation. One brilliant American, who would have believed that. This should be shown everywhere and explained where it isn’t understood, which will be in a lot of schools, especially to the teachers.
Teachers would hear this lecture but they wouldn't listen because it doesn't fit their Leftie agenda to scare and control young people into submission.
Brilliant insights. Thank you for showing us the light.

Too busy
The problem with the Green lobby is summed up by the Aristotle quote at the start...fingers in their ears whilst throwing a tantrum. I never tolerated that behaviour from my children.
Nah, the problem with the green lobby is they are watermelons - green on the outside, red on the inside. They're all "former" communists who now see the environmental movement as a good way to continue pursuing wealth redistribution. Or at the very least, handicapping capitalist western countries economically by getting them to do it to themselves through restrictive energy policies that "developing" countries like China and India don't have to follow.
Perfect description.
This is hands down the best presentation explaining the energy conundrum that I have seen in years. The moment the energy sources are dropped one by one and then the lights are dimmed by 94% actually gave me goosebumps. Welcome back to the caves. Fantastic job!
So smart! Thank you for expressing this. It's what my wife and I have been saying during our morning coffee times for a number of years. (we are 71 now)

I've worked with Lithium, it's incredibly volatile when it gets wet. EV's, as they are now, will kill quiet a few people while business tries to figure out, how not to kill their customers.
I think you mean reactive. Lithium doesn't become volatile until like 400c. Highly volatile means it evaporates really fast.

That‘s what a calm and smart person looks like, sounds like and argues like. 👍
The discussion Dr. Tinker had on Jordan Peterson's podcast ran very much along this vein, and this is some discussion. The advantages of eschewing the binary approach to the energy that we all use - or would use, when it is available to those parts of the world that desperately need an inexpensive and reliable source of energy - become crystal clear when listening to Dr. Tinker. This is an amazing and must-hear message.
Thank you, I'm an engineer (manufacture, marine and nuclear) also a trained electrician. I am aware Of this world ,I have travelled and worked around it and observed what and how they can do things .I saw for example that as we reduced our Mercantile Marine fleet as we closed our coal fired power stations, Russia for example in one year built 6 new bulk carriers to export their coal , to Asia/China etc. This information is freely available and tells anyone who can read, think and do maths about the reduction (or lack of) that is actually happening in the reduction of use in this regard. Now this leads me to speculate -- A/ do all the people who are telling us to stop using most of the energy plants we currently have within 2 to 3 years, whilst at the same time removing most of the transport system from this nation ( fossil fuel cars) to use electric cars (where there is an insufficient amount of kilowatts currently available) to charge them? B/ The least polluting form of electrical generation is by nuclear power stations (like it or not) those which maintain our National grid are nearing their working time limit and there has been a negative amount of thoughts about replacements. Sorry but the facts are there for all (people and government's) . A country without power,(Energy) simply can not function and this infrastructure take years to plan, construct and get operational, not to mention the training of people to accomplish all of this, (A.I) won't hack this 1. There is an element of fear at work here driving people to become a panicked mob, without facts or thought but who fail to be practical and realise that if they get their way the world may still end ,,, but our part of it will end sooner.
great start to ARC..... Thankyou Jordan Peterson and all the others involved in bringing this alliance to the world. This (ARC) is what we desperately need. Genuine facts and leadership. Now it is up to us, the public, to do our part. Spread the word, help grow the "Alliance for Responsible Citizenship", and do YOUR part to help bring about a better more positive world for all of humanity. Put an end to the distopian vision offered by the elites of Davos and the WEF gang. Bring individual Freedom and responsibility back to the forefront of a free and prosperous society. Thankyou.
Would you do be responsible with your "individual freedom" to lessen your negative consumption impacts on the world? I live in a collective and see daily that people don't even manage to recycle properly. Individual freedom is the argument lazy people use when they don't want to take responsibility.
Sadly, this video is pretty distopian too. Paints a pretty bad picture: we are currently unable to sustain our present lifestyles and alleviate the pollutive effects of them, and solar/wind are not sufficient to help. Nuclear might help. He didn't seem to offer any better direction for the future.
Freedoms and responsibilities will obviously be critical - perhaps a user-pays approach to the cleanup costs of everyone's pollution will be a key driver. That way they can decide based on the costs of their actions.
@@user-gf6gf2iy2k Am a bit baffled by the reactions to this video. This data on ever growing consumption of fossil energies and CO2 has been out for decades and used by many (gov, COP, activitists, etc) to push doing something about it. And it is well known that current wind, solar, etc non-fossil energies are far from enough to curb the trend. Even Al Gore showed similar graphs.
Except that this video stops there, no message about better ways to curb the trend, looks down on alternatives, and seems fatalistic.
What did I miss ? Is there some signaling here that went way over my head ?
@@iamsometimes6712 You probably missed that the purpose of this video is to cast dispersions and incite reactionism. Those are Peterson and Sowell's stock in trade.
Great presentation! Mr Tinker brings the "only trade-offs" idea to science just as Thomas Sowell brought it to us in Economics. Well done, sir!
If there are trade-offs you have to think harder to resolve the issues. But Mr. Tinker wants us to stop thinking.
Perhaps the most balanced explanation of global energy use I've seen. Thank you.
You're very welcome
When writing a thesis in engineering in the early 1970s, I devised a poor depiction of a three way balance with the three E's; Energy, Environment, and Economy. My thesis advisor loved it. Always a balancing act.
All politicians should take a course from Scott Tinker. Fabulous information.
Excellent presentation and slides! Now to watch again.
This talk was very interesting and informative. It also feels very incomplete. I want to hear what this nuanced plan towards mitigating climate change may look like. Show a few options. Give my mind a moment to image the possibilities. Telling me the way we think about the binary choice is wrong is a fine start, but leaving me with little to follow leaves me hollow. I want to have the nuanced conversation. I want to learn ideas and help form and solidify them in public discourse. I would love to hear his next 20 min talk about what he wants to do.
In a world of inward-looking virtual signaling and visceralism, these are the dialogs that put us back where we should intellectually be as a specie. Just thank you.
Has this man got time in his schedule to address the Australian Parliament? Please do.
You said what needed to be said and heard. Well done Sir!
True, unfortunately he didn’t have many answers though.
@@shiraz1736 he basically just said our current lifestyles are unsustainable and solar/wind aren't enough help to replace the hyrdocarbon element in these lifestyles. Yes, no answers proposed, just a bit fatalistic.
I am glad I watched the whole thing. Thank you for the information
Love the part about “Renewable Energy”
What a speech brilliant work!
Excellent presentation, it summed everything up regarding the lunacy of governments policies and the net zero absurdity. Common sense scientist, that’s what the world needs.
This presentation accurately described the predicament humans face, and just how dependent our current lifestyles are on cheap hydrocarbon energy. Scott Tinker effectively highlighted that the climate effects of our current approach are dire, but there's no easy way out while sustaining our current lifestyles.
The one thing it missed was any sort of route forward, as this current model becomes less tenable. Perhaps only the reference to nuclear energy being more renewable ventured into such territory.
@@user-gf6gf2iy2k Exeactly my reaction. All these comments about brutal truth, etc, when all he did was laying down the well known energy source trends used by governments, COP, etc, to show the ever increasing emissions of CO2 and main culprits.
No word in this video about what he recommends in the face of this situation.
Seeing all the laudatory comments it sounds like a deep truth was presented and everybody seems in.
But am clueless, dunno what I missed ? 🤔
I wonder if the message was so effective because it was trying to communicate facts or more than plans and opinions.
Excellent presentation. Take this in its entirety to the oversite committee!
Share this with everyone you know ... The entire country should get this collection of messages ... Thank You Mr. Tinker !
Great speech. The truth. Thank you.
The intelligence in this room is way more than any politician can understand nor comprehend.
Amazing video! Factual information that we all crave presented in an understandable way.
“When we remove doubt from science, it becomes religion”
Such wise words. Think about how difficult it is to talk to someone about climate or a vaccine when they refuse to doubt that they know everything about the topic.
It’s sad how difficult it is to simply discuss things these days without being attacked
You appear to be as ignorant as your words. God bless those who are not as mentally gifted as the average where they have to throw out this blanket nonsense. You must be very blessed. Is that religion or science? I’d say it is your biology.
CO2 offset "..a shell game"; brilliant analogy.
Simply awesome, well presented, realistic, scientific lecture... & it wasn't a bit boring!
Brilliant! Thank you a lot for the big picture!
Thank you for an excellent video. Very informative and very good approach!!!!
Probably one of the best presentations on this subject that I have ever seen…..and I spend a lot of time on CZcams (I’m old). Thank you sir!
This is my first encounter with ARC content and it's a bewildering - for me - organization because I find it *impossible to catagorize.* For example, here Scott Tinker talks like a preacher but he's talking science! And dad jokes. He's making sense. I know this *shouldn't* put me on my guard and feeling suspicious. Oddly, however, it does. Which can be quite stimulating in a very peculiar way.
Don't apologize for being on your guard. We have been lied to so often by so many, for their own personal gain, that we have every right to be suspicious. The danger of lying to people so much and so often, is that if and when someone chooses to tell the truth, no one wants to believe it. It's the predictable response the classic example of "the boy who cried "WOLF" too often. No one believed him when he finally told the truth and suffered the consequences.
Sure wind and solar are clean while they are working, but what is the cost to the environment to manufacture windmills and solar panels? And, what about their lifespan and cost to dispose of them when they no longer work? There is a gap between the dream and the reality. These people are selling something . . . and it isn't freedom.
Excellent!! In some discussions I used to correct phrases of my opposite that there is no renewable energy at all. The wind that has turned your wheel will never come back again, the energy that touches your solar panel won't be the same like the day before it's from a different process on the sun. Another thing is said you should realize is Wolf windmills or solar panel fields you dry out we surface beneath.
I really so appreciated this presentation! Thank you so much. I will continue to seek the truth with a balanced view…well as much as anyone is balanced …LOL. Thought provoking! Excellent.
Brilliant thinker and communicator. Bravo.
Utterly brilliant 🙌👍👌 So clear, and presented so well, I wished I was in the room watching! Brilliant! 🙌🙌🙌
Great speaker! Must watch his PBS series and two docs I’m aware of, Switch and Switch On.
I spoke about this years ago, everyone called me stupid. As an electrical engineer with solar experience, i knew it was not the savior people were sold.
More people need to listen to these video's
Powerful talk. I hope world leaders are watching.
I hope they watch too. But most of them are far too stupid to understand. Biden has no brain at all. The UK and Germany don't get it. Justin Trudeau can't remember what he had for lunch. China and India have it figured out though -especially China.
This presentation should be seen by everyone everywhere and especially our leaders - assuming they actually dont know already and are just badly informed rather than criminally negligent
Excellent talk! Thank you!
I wish we could tradeoff our self-serving politicians with people with principles and competence.
While political authority is centralised, power will remain crantralised and politics will attract megalomaniacs and narcissists. While money is allowed in politics and conflicts of interest, politics will attract the morally bankrupt and corrupt.
100%
Google the world’s highest producing lithium mine in Western Australia south of the state capital, Perth. It’s called Greenbushes hard rock spodumene mine. Every Tesla on the road today has lithium in it from that Australian mine.
so what? now think how many gold mines there are most of which is sitting in bank vaults.
“Greenbushes”
Global lithium mining and refining , not just Greenbush, needs to expand 80X to replace all ice vehicles w BEVs, and then stop only if recycling is 100%, which it won’t be. What use is one Aussie mine in solving that problem? As the speaker asked, you think mining is green? “It’s not green”
Btw, guess where Aussie ore goes to be refined? Hint it’s due N from Perth, couple thousand miles.
"An Honest & Sensible Conversation about Global Energy". And that's just what it is. Thanks!
You're very welcome!
Absolutely outstanding presentation.
Wonderful lecture. Anyone else see Robyn Williams on stage?
