    Support Africa. Support the ones that can make us the first generation to create a sustainable future. Support the people and organizations that are working hard on reaching our goals. Hope one day there can have a Fridays For Future in Africa????????????

    I have no clue… what I’m supposed to do. Plant a tree? Stop a war?? Teach kids about crypto??? idk What he meant to say,but I literally have no clue how to help. And I genuinely want to. Unfortunately, all his statistics were completely wrong. Africas climate is the best in the world.. also has the most trees… the USA funded them over 170M dollars since last year… and we buy coffee and beans from everyone who wants to work on top of that.The United States is the largest single donor of humanitarian assistance in Uganda… it’s sad and I’m sorry man. But what can we… DO?..

    Great talk. It’s true, you cannot make sense of a (first) world country and government who supports and implements global environmental policies (for the greater good) and at the same time actively supports wars and conflicts. From a (waisted) recourse, pollution, humanitarian perspective etc. You cannot take them serious without creating a divide that comes from that hypocrisy. And there are so many other reasons, some who he addressed.

    Thank you so much for raising awareness for this topic. The world NEEDS to hear this so much more if we want to actually help people and help improve the world they live in. Keep pushing.

    If climate change aka global warming is real , then someone forgot to notify the never ending seasons that still occur right on time each year. Summer Spring Winter Fall…. Nature knows what time it is but science ? Not so much..

    • @milan9571

      August 30, 2024 at 2:08 pm

      Read up on the topic. Especially the difference between weather and seasons and climate. Climate concerns a spectrum of decades. And there is indisputable evidence that global temperatures are rising which leads to a cascade of problems.

    Let’s call Climate Change a created narrative that allows unethical Elites to deploy tech ai science medicine government and
    NGO’s , to make massive changes in population , freedoms , travel and to install a system whereby the Elites and accomplices receive the freedom of travel medical care food water air and special privileges associated with having the lions share of the wealth and power. Reset 2.0. Only the blind can not see the truth because they believe the lie. Wake Up

    I knew this had to be good comedy when someone claimed climate change and war somehow intersected. I’m sure that climate change was involved in so many wars of the past too.
