The kool aid is swallowing that human activity is to blame for all or most of these changes. What we may be seeing is a reversion back to “normal” from a period of abnormal stability in temperature and weather. In any event we need to return to a more sustainable lifestyle. That does not include electric SUVs I would guess, or 8 to 10 billion people. All of this will come out in the wash eventually. The plants really like the extra CO2 Mother Gaia has given them. NASA has confirmed that from space, 15% increase in green. Humans have served their purpose here. So far we are still burning more oil / gas than EVER, right now. So all this solar / wind stuff so far has not put much of a dent in our consumption. But the plan has taken this all into account. Gaia’s plan that is. Enjoy the ride while it lasts.

It really is going to take a decrease in population by controlling the birth rate so as the natural death rate surpasses. Capitalism will not allow for this as far as I understand it, the choice is ours, sink to the bottom of the sea with your pockets full of gold or throw it overboard, so to speak. Less people is the immediate rational response to the opulence of capitalism and its overpopulation of the planet that followed it, like it or not… and your God will not save you from this global catastrophe that was self-created.

I can make energy without any fuel at all.
I’ve done it and will give it to the world freely.
It is portable and anyone can maintain it.
I just turned the elements and physics upsidedown and inside out.
It’s amazing that in 2400 years nobody thought of it….
The problem is , it cannot be allowed to be patented because it will be looked at as perpetual motion. And as such, the department of defense and under the guise of national security, it would never see the light of day. So I’m going to make a video and give it to a lot of people who will load the internet with it. Believe me, it’s way simpler than what you may think.

Chill with the highschool protest of fossil fuels.
Just present the science like a man would and let intelligent minds deduce the rest.

The population has to decrease to pre-industrial levels. That’s the ONLY way to solve this problem with the new kinds of energy available.

I used to believe in that myth of overpopulation too, seems logical at first glance. But I think it originates (Malthus) from before we improved agriculture enough to feed everybody (although it still needs to evolve), and we also realised that many populations seem to be stabilising instead of following exponential growth.
You say “ONLY way” but there are others, including rethinking our power usage.
Ironically, if the population was decreased that much you’d disrupt production so much that our quality of life would be reduced much more than by only reducing our energy consumption.
Also I wonder how exactly you’d do that, the joke being that those that think there’s overpopulation should be the first to go. Just a joke though.

Need a multitier approach whereby different energy transforming & utilisation technologies are used to supply the human civilisation including recycled carbon in the short term for ICE based transportation systems: nuclear fusion & nuclear fission are but a few examples of the technologies we need to continue to develop!
No good will come of putting all of your eggs in one basket!!!

Foolish opening statement. Carbon dioxide is not a pollutant. 0.03% of the air we breathe is co2. Less than 0.02% and plants die. The Earth is actually greening due to a slight increase in human caused co2 not burning up. There are no “climate crises”. There are however, plans to transfer more wealth to the elite class.

None of this is trivial. You can’t color hydrogen green meaning they are free to greenwash. Hydrogen is hard to store and even harder to transport. Making amonia is also non trivial and requires a lot of energy besides, not to mention its intrinsic toxicity. Justifyable in fertilizer production but maybe not much else

An historic talk which, I am sure will be much quoted.
Yes we must overcome the problems in production and transportation of de-fossilized hydrogen.
I applaud Toyota as the only car manufacturer interested in this essential industrial revolution. Battery cars are an expensive anachronism to the vast majority of car users, the industry has its head in the sand as the huge problems of charging loom ahead. It’s a global farce.
I would say that there are other routes to renewable sources of ammonia, for example from fish farming, as demonstrated in the aquaponics cycle.

Eh? It doesn’t matter if its derived from hydrolysis, the combustion of methanol is still combustion!
I can see the benefits of a cleaner form of shipping fuel, and I can see the benefits of scaled up electrolysis, but can (as a holder of a degree in environmental science) am worried that this a pretty substantial act of, what I suppose I can call, greenwashing.
In this case, the use of the terminology commonly used by those fighting for the rights of our planet, for sustainability and for everyone affected by climate change (ie: everyone who happens to live here) aggressively and with the intent to blindside those with good intentions.
Is she playing on the fact that many wouldn’t know that methanol still releases CO2?
Am I missing something here?
Forgive me and explain if that is the case, I am open to hearing any thoughts!

I haven’t a clue how it all works…just appalled at Human selfishness. The planet doesn’t NEED any more clothes. Or take out for that matter. Electric cars are not the answered…neither is throwing ourselves in front of needed pipelines…a million or more trees (of every kind) should be planted every day…my country Canada is losing tons of trees for toilet paper…European countries are here illegally steeling wood chips for their citizens to keep warm…WTF?
WE waste way too much…people won’t change unless you take it ALL away from them and they need to re-use re-purpose recycle
Re-think what they DON’T need…the next stupid talking skeleton for Halloween…etc.
Pkg in every company in the world has to change. I guess I could go on forever…but even I’m too much. faaak.
I’m so very happy I’ll be dirt soon…it’s difficult to hear the world’s survival depends on what she and her cohorts think.

It’s okay to combust and create CO2. Because the earth recycles it continuously. The problem is burning fossil fuels which releases carbon stored eons ago into the air. So you put out an excess of carbon in a short period of time.

“U-233 is a fissile isotope of uranium that is bred from thorium-232 as part of the thorium fuel cycle. Uranium-233 was investigated for use … as a reactor fuel. It has been used successfully in experimental nuclear reactors and has been proposed for much wider use as a nuclear fuel. It has a half-life of 160,000 years. Uranium-233 is produced by the neutron irradiation of thorium-232.” — Uranium-233. (2023, August 13). In Wikipedia.
