First you have deforestation for cropfields for meatproduction, emissions from producing fertilizer, transportation of food for the animals and methan from animals which has a much higher greenhouse effect. I think thoose have the biggest impacts. Ofcourse stuff like packaging and transportation to the warehouses won’t lower if we all become vegetarian because then they would simply package and ship other products.

The greedy have the power and there’s nothing we can do about it. Making a plan is great, but if you don’t address and force the greedy to stop, it’s a non-starter. We’re screwed. How about a plan to stop those who put us in this place. Oil is everywhere. Oil is currency.

These guys are living in a dream world. There is no circumstance under which fossil influence over our political systems, combined with the sheer economic momentum can be overcome by moral suasion, scientific data, economic postulation or political argument. If that was going to work it would have by now.
The only viable lever is that of reallocation of investment without reliance on political will. I am unaware of any force capable of accomplishing that other than organized consumer action.

At 0:44 he’s lost me already. Nuclear doesn’t scale to the size needed in the time remaining. If you spend even a few seconds thinking about it, it’s pretty obvious.
First, figure out the scale needed.
We need to build about 50,000 one GW reactors over the next 8 years. That’s one every 42 minutes.
So, do we have any designs that are suitable for mass production at that scale? Obviously not. So we need to design one. How long would that take? At least a year to design. Then we need to build a test unit. Currently it takes at least 5 years to build a reactor to a design we have already built. Assuming we can halve that, (which is unlikely) that’s 2.5 years. Then we need to test it. It’s going to need to work for 40 years. If we test one unit for 5 years we will only be sure of picking up problems that occur in the first 5 years and 100% of reactors. So it’s unlikely that the reactor design is fit for purpose, but assuming we go with it anyway. That gives us 6 months to build 50,000 reactors. The factories to build them don’t exist. They’d need to be designed and constructed. The factories that make the machines that would go in those factories don’t exist. They’d need to be designed and constructed.
Nuclear might have been an option in 1970. It’s not an option now. Even the most casual look at the subject makes it completely clear, it’s not an option.
Then look at fuel. Using known, tested, working designs as the basis for the 50,000 new reactors means that we would run out of fuel in a few months, well before the last reactor got its initial fuel load. So we need a design that has the most efficient neutron capture design ever created, by far. In months.
Then we need operators. Breeder reactors are finicky things. Each plant needs maybe 100 highly skilled operators, so 5 million operators. They must be trained on a plant we haven’t yet designed. We can’t start training them until we know what they’re going to be operating.
These problems of time and scale are insurmountable. Even if we start today.

What is your solution?
Internet Hobo
February 11, 2022 at 6:49 am
@gasdive Your argument relies on the false assumptions that: we can’t reduce our power use, we can’t research better technologies in years, (it’s been done and is happening) and we wouldn’t build typically better than average (and well funded) reactors in future times.
Hydroelectric, public transport, reduced beef consumption, regulations, etc. apparently just don’t matter? “Wasn’t impressed” is by no means a reasonable dismissal, these all play a different-sized part.
“Fill the gaps” means use in addition to other solutions. There was absolutely no implication of needing peaking power plants, you made that up.
gasdive
February 11, 2022 at 12:43 pm
@Internet Hobo “Your argument relies on the false assumptions that: we can’t reduce our power use”
Well that has never happened so far. But say it does happen. Over the next 8 years we reduce our energy consumption by 50%. That cuts our need to 25,000 reactors, and extends our deadline by 2 years. Rather than needing a finished reactor to drop off the end of a production line every 42 minutes, we need one about every 3 hours if we had the factories and a design. That doesn’t materially change the situation. We don’t have the factories. We don’t have the design.
“we can’t research better technologies in years (it’s been done and is happening) and we wouldn’t build typically better than average (and well funded) reactors in future times”
On the contrary, I said it absolutely depends on creating a new nuclear technology. Not just “better than average” but a reactor with a neutron efficency that has never been achieved in any reactor, of any sort. As for funding, “(well funded)” I didn’t mention it, assuming cost absolutely no object. Some things take a certain amount of time no matter how much money you throw at it. You can’t produce a baby in a month by making nine women pregnant.
“hydroelectric, public transport, reduced beef consumption, regulations etc apparently don’t matter?”
No, they don’t matter. Hydro is practically fully utilised already. Even if it wasn’t, it takes about a decade to build one. (Three Gorges took 17 years) We have 8 years. If private car use was banned tomorrow, and replaced by zero emission public transport today, right this instant we’d save the passenger car emissions. Which according to Statisa “Passenger cars produced approximately three billion metric tons of carbon dioxide emissions worldwide in 2020”. Statisa says 2020 World CO2 emissions were 34 billion tonnes. So banning private cars today extends our deadline by 9 months.
These are all nibbling at the edges of the issue and failing to tackle it in any sort of effective manner. Yeah, I’m unimpressed.
“fill the gaps means use in addition to other solutions”
You bet it does. It’s in addition. Meaning you have the other solutions (a solution being something that fixes the problem) then you add nuclear like a wart on top.
Otherwise those aren’t “solutions” and when the wind doesn’t blow, and the sun doesn’t shine, ie, the gaps, nuclear fills the whole energy need. I’m not making up that this is peaking. It’s the very definition of peaking.
Ryan says “when you think of solar and wind as they get deployed, you can’t turn that on and off when you need it, right? So a grid needs to find a way to fill it’s gaps”.
Now he’s completely wrong there. Both wind and solar can be turned on and off very quickly. He’s saying they’re intermittent baseload. They are intermittent, but they’re not baseload. Either way the focus of that statement is on the intermittent nature of geographically limited solar and wind. If you’re going to backup solar and wind with nuclear, then obviously the nuclear needs to be able to provide all your electrical needs, otherwise its not a backup at all. Which means it needs to be sized just as large as if it was the only supply. 50,000 reactors. Even if 99% of the time they’re running on bypass.
Tony Rosati
February 11, 2022 at 3:31 pm
@gasdive solar is intermittent and required grid scale storage that we don’t have. Otherwise you destabilize the grid. So no. Solar panels come from Asia (mostly China which we do NOT want to depend on). Solar is only suitable in some climates and takes massive land areas. Look at Germany’s – massive solar and wind with no plans to get off fossil fuels until 2040. Look at France – self sustaining nuclear power and the cheapest prices of electricity. Germans pay the highest prices.
I’m not against solar or wind but nuclear has to be in the mix if we care about the climate. Every energy technology has pros and cons. We need massive amounts of energy to grow and prosper.
Zenn Exile
February 11, 2022 at 8:19 pm
It’s like all these clowns fergot that the Sun already puts out more power than we will ever need for thousands of years. We simply have to exploit it’s potential correctly through the proliferation of Life, and the harvesting of said Solar and Life Energy. I mean you could put 5 million normal people with zero technical skill each on a Hectare of land, produce far more energy, reverse global warming through storage of Carbon in living systems, and supply each of those 5 million people with the value of excess production to barter with and live a gainful productive life.
Instead of now where most people work for 70 years and die in massive debt just to produce, raise, and educate a single child in a system of absolute chaotic waste and destruction.
The smart move would be to provide everyone who has no wealth a Hectare of Land, and the education needed to turn that Hectare of Land into a permanently productive source of gainful income. Turn the Sun into Progress.
Everything else is a lie designed to support some corporate interest. And the only thing Corporations are interested in is the illusion of growth and quarterly profit. Normal people have ZERO need for central energy production and extreme energy density and storage solutions. The Sun is all we have EVER needed, and will ever need long into the forseeable future.
gasdive
February 11, 2022 at 11:12 pm
@Tony Rosati It is always sunny somewhere. What’s needed is not so much grid scale storage, as interconnects that connect continents. We already have factories that make that sort of cable, so we know how to build them. That takes care of the issue of high latitude sites that don’t get much energy half the year, but too much the other half.
Solar doesn’t destabilise the grid, because contrary to what Ryan said, solar can be turned on and off very quickly. That lets correctly programed solar to act as an artificial inertia on the system, making it more stable.
Panels can be made anywhere, not just China. There’s a big factory in Florida. Mine came from Germany. In fact they’ll *have* to be made everywhere if we’re going to get out of this mess. We don’t have anywhere near the number of factories needed. Luckily, unlike nuclear, we already have the designs for those factories, and for the factories that make the machines to go in them. We just have to build more. We could physically start today.
French electricity prices don’t reflect the reality of the cost (I’ve been ignoring cost, what cost survival? but you brought it up). The French nuclear fleet cost about the same as the Apollo program, (by estimates, the actual cost remains a French state secret) and the cost was picked up by the French government. The cost to the consumer no more reflects the real cost than the fact that Neil Armstrong could afford to fly to the moon for the weekend on a public servant wage, reflects the cost of the Apollo program.
Current panel prices are around 0.2 USD per watt in retail quantities. A well sited panel produces about 6 Wh per day per nameplate W, on average. With a life of 30 years, that’s 11,000 days, or 66,000 Wh. 66kWh for 0.2 USD. Now there’s the cost of borrowing the capital for 30 years, but ignoring that, you’re looking at less than 1/3rd of a cent per kWh for solar. If you built your own factories, obviously the cost would be less.
The French, that you just held up as an example of how cheap nuclear is, have built (or at least part built) a reactor where the cost isn’t a state secret. Hinkley Point C cost 22 billion GBP for 3.2 billion watts. That’s 6.8 GBP per watt nameplate and about 22 Wh per day on average. With a life of 40 years, or 15,000 days or 330,000 Wh per installed W. 330 kWh for 6.8 GBP. That’s 0.02 GBP per kWh. About 12 times more. But unlike solar, nuclear has to be actively run. EDF is being paid 19.5 £/MWh. That’s another 0.02 GBP per kWh. Making nuclear more than 24 times more expensive than solar.
Now at this point, I must point out that Hinkley Point C is a PWR that can trace its history back to marine reactors more than 70 years ago. It’s designed to be quick and cheap to build and no thought is given to fuel efficency. There’s a trade off between fuel efficency and initial cost, and between fuel efficency and difficulty in operation. Using that cheap to build, easy to operate design for 50,000 reactors would mean we couldn’t even give them their first load of fuel, as that would be equivalent to 200 years of fuel at current consumption rates. So we must use expensive to build, difficult (expensive) to operate breeder reactors. So 24 times the price is a lower bound, and the real dollar value would be much higher.
As for the massive land area. We need 25 TW. Panels run well over 20% efficency, 1000W falls on each sqm. So that’s 200W/sqm nameplate. Given that you need roads, panels could be angled, etc call it half that, 100W/sqm nameplate. Ideally sited panels make about 6 Wh/day per nameplate W, but call it an average of 4 Wh/day. That allows for some as low as 2 Wh/day, which is pretty much everywhere covered. (Scotland is over 3). So 100W nameplate would make 400 Wh per day, or an average 16.6666, call it 15W. So I think you’ll have to agree those are very conservative numbers.
So at 15W/sqm, and we need 25 trillion watts. Let’s say we need 30 trillion watts to make the maths easy. 30 trillion Watts, divided by 15W/sqm. 30 trillion divided by 15 is 2 trillion. Watts divided by Watts cancels. Two lots of divided by divided by sqm, the two divides become a multiply. So it’s 2 trillion sqm. Change that to sqkm by dividing by the number of sqm in a sqkm (one million) and you get 2 million sqkm.
Where could you fit 2 million sqkm? Such a big area.
Sahara, 9 million sqkm
Russian Arctic 5 million sqkm
Great Australian desert 2.7 million sqkm
Arabian desert 2.2 million sqkm
Gobi Desert 1.9 million sqkm
Kalahari 0.9 million sqkm
Patagonian desert 0.6 million sqkm
Great Basin desert, 0.5 million sqkm.
While you’re right to say every energy has pros and cons, that doesn’t mean every energy should be loaded into the mix at a global scale. Every transport has pros and cons, but that doesn’t mean you should include ocean shipping if you’re designing a public transport solution for Nepal. Some things just aren’t useful. Nuclear is one. We need to switch in 8 years. Nuclear that takes 30 years to ramp up is no more useful than building a port in Kathmandu.

Nothing would change. The problem never was the average person.

Unfortunately electrifying transportation has a sick downside which is mining. I’m definately all against fossil fuel, don’t get me wrong but we can’t rely just on battery fueled future. We have to keep looking for even cleaner alternatives! Let’s not just get stuck on this one option.

No we don’t. There’s a Sun in the sky pumping out enough energy to power a 50 billion human strong technological future for thousands of years. It’s pure lunacy and delusion to believe anything else.

What about working less? Much less? Productivity is killing us, to the point of turning consumption of unnecesary products (a compensation cycle) into an actual form of happines. Like being really happy for going to a Bad Bunny concert, to that degree our crisis has gotten.

USA is really living far in the past. If they still want to have a strong economic position in the future, they must finally arrive in the present. Other countries are already much more progressive.

TED | Ladies and gentlemen!
The question is
whether we spend that time focused on what pushes us apart?
or
whether we commit ourselves to an effort — a sustained effort — to find common ground?.
to focus on the future we seek for our children – and to
respect the dignity of all human beings?.
It’s easier to start wars than to end them.
It’s easier to blame others than to look inward.
It’s easier to see what is different about someone
than to find the things we share.
But we should choose the right path,
not just the easy path.
There’s one rule that lies at the heart of every religion — that we do unto others as we would have them do unto us.
GOOD HEALTH ALWAYS EVERYONE !!!.
# I thank you.

Quite a while since sine I took a look at this channel , and I am quite disappointed.
Last time young man has invented 13 layer composite material that can change the world “Climate inklusive”.
And now most of videos some type self improvement ….. , Climate change etc .
Maybe is time to remove “T” out of “TED”.

Actually crypto is just another fictional economic trap based on faith. What everyone should invest in is a minimum Hectare of Land, and the education required to turn that Land into a productive Wild Resource. One that can be tapped for dividends, recognized as a valued asset, and that supports a complete ecosystem.
You could Mint a Hectare of productive Wild Land, harvest and sell it’s excess production, buy sell and trade them for clout, and use those minted REAL NFT’s to back actual crypto value. Instead of just we all agree to pretend crypto is currency, we can just say, productive wild land is worth X value, it takes Y amount of X value to gainfully produce crypto, therefor, crypto is now backed by the value of the solar, and ground harvested, energy required to produce it.
The smart investment was, is, and will forever be, Land.
