Hey guys. I believe this is the section for these kind of posts, but if i'm wrong please move it to the right one. I recently made a video with the purpose of spreading awareness of the changes our dear planet is enduring right now. It's in dire need of attention, more than ever before. I'd love to hear what you think and if you like it, feel free to share it on your social media! That would mean a lot and I believe it would be a good way to spread the word. Take a look: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FF5jHjVt5tk&t=1s |

Everyone should be on board with not having false information used and there's always plenty of that to be cleared up. There are people out there believing all kinds of crack pot stuff. Some who believe climate change is a threat and some who believe it's a hoax. If we are going to make our best effort to improve our own lives we need to have the most honest exchange of information and ideas we can manage. |

I agree with you that "Everyone should be on board with not having false information used and there's always plenty of that to be cleared up." I also believe there is a need for information on all fronts as there is still many people that cannot think in long-term risk assessment as well as understand what is expressed in the serious research. |

That's not what i'm trying to express and I'm not religious neither. I don't really care if you are a member of my congregation or not. I'm just stating that our planet is out of balance and NEEDS human beings to change their behavior which is FACTS and it needs our attention. That's why I made this video, it's not scientific, because lots of scientists all over the world already did this job. Plus everyone who is interested in this should also know the facts as our demands for fuel, water, land, and food are beginning to place a strain on the planet's limited resources. The Earth's temperature is rising caused by a buildup of air due to pollution. The biomass of wild mammals has fallen by 82%, natural ecosystems have lost about half their area and a million species are at risk of extinction – all largely as a result of human actions, said the study, compiled over three years by more than 450 scientists and diplomats. I could continue like this and you talk about not panicking and worrying.. As Greta Thunberg said, would you also stay calm if your house was on fire? |

They are actually very important to consider in approaching the issue and they have counterparts on the other side of the debate. There are people who adopt beliefs in spite of the evidence and who will actively and knowingly disseminate false information. The problem is NOT with the people who oppose you I'd argue but with the people who think they are with you. The greatest liability to scientists who call themselves "skeptics" of global warming are crackpots like IBD and ITN. It only takes a few fools to cast doubt on an entire group. |

That's a completely different topic and has nothing to do with the Global Warming religion. I am a true environmentalist. I advocate strongly against pollution, and that entails knowing what is pollution and what is not. The Church of Global Warming is the single biggest threat to our global environment by trying to classify everything as pollution and everything as poison. If everything is pollution and everything is poison then nothing is pollution and nothing is poison. Warmizombies have been the single biggest force undermining environmental efforts.

I personally think Global Warming is a scam. Part of it maybe with interest to protect the environment, but a lot of other groups jumped in for other less noble reasons. Either way, it's still a scam, and most people don't like being lied to, or manipulated, not to mention the thief portion either. The truth always comes out eventually, and people learn, become less trustful. The socialist democrats in America are a good indicator, huge supporters of Climate Change action, but few, if any, do anything on a personal level to set an example of how an individual can reduce their energy consumption, or environmental concerns. The presidential candidates fly all over the country, usually in private jets they own, lease, or charter. Commercial flights wouldn't be as convenient, or luxurious, but less expensive, and wouldn't be burning as much fuel, since there would be 100-200 other people on the same plane. You see them speaking on TV, usually a single use, plastic bottle of water in hand, or nearby. If it's a sit down event, why not reusable glasses, and a shared pitcher? How many of them travel state-state on a train these days? The where and when, shouldn't be more important than stopping off, and talking to voters every where. Speeches could be delivered electronically, displayed on very large screens at rallies and fundraisers. There is live, two way video communications these days. Still possible to directly interact with the audience, answer questions. The audience is generally just a few thousand (at best), and it's mostly the same speech, same material, dozens of times, all over the country. They could easily expand the event to millions, all at one time, reducing travel a great deal, because they care about environmental issues... That's the politics wanting in on the scam. Can go into the business and money, economy exploit as well, but have to move on. |

Sure, there are people that like to torture animals so that they live in pain or die slowly. There is nothing wrong with minimizing their suffering. But let's be clear about this. You live because animals die. Even vegetarians. Throwing plastic in the oceans will happen. YOU cannot stop it. The Church of Green cannot stop it. The stuff isn't inert. It is food. Bacteria and UV will break it down pretty fast. So yes, it's generally okay to throw plastic into oceans. Those are BIG oceans. We can't make enough plastic to be a big problem.

Our Fragile Planet | The Only One We've Got https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FF5jHjVt5tk&t=1s You know the saying, "Show me a Climate Change believer and I'll show you someone who is either scientifically illiterate or who is a flat out science denier." Apparently the warmizombies have abandoned all pretense of "settled science" and have gone full bore emotional manipulation. "Our Fragile Planet | The Only One We've Got" is a "must see" for all gullible people who enjoy being regarded as stupid, who enjoy being manipulated out of their political voice and their cash, and who have an inner need for an omnipotent government to run absolutely every aspect of their personal lives. This video incorporates all the techniques used by Greenpeace, PETA, Time-Share salesmen and generally all scammers trying to bend you over furniture. This video presents no information. It uses no science. It just makes you feel bad and makes you believe that it is your fault. Here's a play-by-play: (note: the narrator is not a native English speaker which normally wouldn't be any sort of factor, but in this case it's somewhat humorous when he misuses standard "impact phrases" intended to elicit involuntary emotional responses) 0:00:02 – "clocks are ticking." Well, yeah ... millions of them. Oh wait, it's supposed to be "The clock is ticking" We're supposed to be stressed from the very beginning of the video. Got it. 0:00:07 – Images of three forest fires in Brazil. There's no mention of the annual forest fires in Southern California. Oh wait! California isn't a "Climate Ground Zero" ... at least not yet. Anyway, we know the story. No place in the United States can be worth protecting because the United States is pure capitalistic EVIL. Got it. 0:00:22 – Little girl crying at the EU, babbling in English so as to target the US and the UK for a guilt-Howitzer. She did not give her speech in Portuguese so as to target Brazil, nor did she deliver the presentation in Chinese, Hindi, or in any other language to make anyone else suddenly feel inexplicably guilty. Obviously well rehearsed, the little girl sobs at the "acidification" of our ocean, giving plausible deniability that a little girl can't possibly understand chemistry well enough to know that the whole "ocean acidification" crap is total nonsense and is in fact pure hype targeting the scientifically illiterate. 0:00:35 –Harrison Ford actually believes he is a scientist. This segment is in this video because the author thinks we are driven to adopt the opinions of attention-seeking celebrities 0:00:40 – "We are in the midst of the earth's 6th mass extinction." Right. I'm not buying it. I give the author credit for the ominous nature of the BS delivered with a completely straight face. 0:01:46 – I'm guessing this is the author of the video speaking. He's telling us how uncertain he is concerning the future if we "continue like this" (with "like this" being completely undefined) and the "consequences will become more [unintelligible]" (with "consequences" being completely unspecified). 0:02:05- A CNN anchor telling us that the UN is issuing a dire warning on Climate Change, while flashing a text box reading "REPORT: HUMANS BEHIND EXTINCTION RISK FOR A MILLION SPECIES". The creator of this video seems unaware of the extent to which he is lampooning his own video and videos like it. This is exactly the kind of ridiculous exaggeration you would find on a Saturday Night Live skit bashing conservatives. The author apparently has been manipulated into the erroneous belief that people consider CNN to be neutral and factual, and that the English-speaking world is somehow concerned about what the UN says. 0:02:17- The video very abruptly changes to animal cruelty. It's almost as though the Climate Change video ended and a PETA video suddenly started. The viewer is suddenly made to feel bad in an entirely different manner. Now the viewer is expected to bemoan global suffering imposed onto the cute, adorable animal kingdom by EVIL loathesome humanity. The viewer is expected to realize that he has never committed any such atrocities, but that such atrocities are being committed by other people who should be vilified. Essentially the video rallies people around a common, non-existent enemy. 0:02:35 – We're back to the earth again. The poor earth is exhausted and can't keep up. What? Hey, author, I bet the earth is strong enough body-slam your town with a volcano and not break a sweat. At no point in this video have you offered to make any sort of point. Do you have one? 0:02:44 – We're back to animals again. I'm not sure what's really going on here other than I'm sure that I am supposed to be reaching for my wallet to make a donation and to write my Congressman to demand my taxes be increased. 0:03:18 – We need to save the planet in order for our future generations to be happy and prosperous. So, we don't need to save people, we need to save specifically the planet. Is the planet hurling towards the sun? Is a huge asteroid on a collision course with earth? How do we save the planet? I don't think the planet is in any danger. The author of the video has made no attempt whatsoever to specify any danger to the planet. None whatsoever. The author has been showing images of animals all this time. Are they the threat referenced? It would be stupid if they were but nothing about this video makes any sort of sense. 0:03:31 – Now we get to the Christian argument that the earth is a "gift" to mankind (as opposed to mankind being a growth upon the earth) and by accepting this gift we have incurred the liability to protect it ... from undefined threats no less. I'd like to see that contract and where I signed it. 0:03:41 – The final segment offers hope ... only if all humans join together in one big Marxist ant colony dedicated to serving the plant and animal kingdom. The viewer is informed that alone he cannot make any change, but if he joins everyone else in a soldier ant role of service then he will be filled with that warm, fuzzy fulfilled feeling. Oh yeah, I definitely recommend this video to everyone ... who feels an inner void that can only be filled by being tooled. If you can't get enough of those "starving children in Africa" videos then cue up this video right now. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FF5jHjVt5tk&t=1s I don't think i can [define it].

Thanks for the play-by-play. Started watching it yesterday, but I had stop, just couldn't finish watching. Really, it stalled at 1:29, and hadn't loaded anymore. Left the window open for over an hour. Wasn't the video, just my slow internet. Think that little girl was off her meds, wasn't really anything she read, that should have made her cry, like Joe Biden was standing behind her. Then again, it was a short clip, maybe he moved on, after she started sobbing... Animal cruelty? Yeah, there are cruel people in the world, and they don't stop at animals either. I'm sure we've all seen animal attacking other animals on TV. It's much more viscous live. A small percentage of the human population does bad things, hardly representing all of us. Earth is exhausted? Tell that to the people living in the Bahamas, still getting beaten up by a strong Cat 5 hurricane, which should be arriving at my door step Tuesday or Wednesday. It's a slow moving storm, so we get to enjoy it for a couple of days. Brazilian fires... I've got a strong hunch that many of them were farm land being clear for the next season crops. The CNN clips weren't showing a whole lot of trees. I would imagine there are some that get out of control, and burn rain forest, maybe intentionally, but not that common. Lot of people moved to the forests and took up farming and ranching, as there weren't many jobs under the socialist government. Most people don't want to work entertaining tourist, socially... Hope somebody does a video on socialism in Brazil, as it's being dangled in front of the American voters during the coming election year. I don't think we have the same option of moving to unused forest land, and starting our own farms and ranches like they do. There are a lot of lazy, inconsiderate people on the planet, and I would like to see some of the bad behavior changed. But, I don't believe that new laws or taxes will change anything. Enforcing the existing laws would be a good start. |
