Would using electric cars for the collection of carbon or cars in general be a viable option? If you had a device that could filter out carbon from the atmosphere, scaled it down, distribute and build it into a lot of vehicles wich could then at some point just dispose of it in some form, maybe a cartridge everyone could easily replace, that would be the dream. You wouldn't even have so suck it out of the air and everyone could help.

@@iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii4222 the easiest version of what you are talking about & what was shown in the video is to collect any charcoal left over when you have a BBQ & bury it. That charcoal is pure carbon & will remain stable in that form & out of the atmosphere for around 1000 years if buried in the ground or otherwise safely stored :) You can make a bio-char creator at home yourself too if you want to, take an old food, coffee or paint tin & make a small hole in the lid. Fill it tightly with organic matter like timber or dry leaves & put the lid on, then put the tin into the fire when you're cooking your next BBQ. All the "wood gases" will burn off but because not enough oxygen can get in to combine with the carbon & form CO2 (CO2 is carbon 1, oxygen 2), the charcoal (solid carbon) will be left with everything else removed. To test if it's done, try to light the gasses coming out of the hole in the tin (carefully), they will light & burn while gasses are coming out, but when the flame goes out & can't be re-lit, then your charcoal is done. You can break it up into fine pieces if you want to (makes it harder for anyone to ever retrieve it out of the ground that way) or you can bury it in chunks, it doesn't matter, it's carbon locked into the ground & out of the atmosphere :) Added to pot plants or gardens, it will hold 70 times it's weight in water & also retain fertilisers & provide a home for micro-organisms that keep the soil healthy, so it's great for gardens as well as the environment There's lots of videos on here if you want to do it but want more details first :)

Global warming is the most important issue today. We decide now if the Earth will be livable for generations after us. My suggestion would be to put a hard cap on the amount of CO2 each nation is allowed to produce. Corporations then have to buy certificates at auctions allowing them to emit some amount of CO2. The money that is earned by this is used to support renewable energy and other environmentally friendly technologies.

exactly my thoughts too :) Only a brief mention, I'm thinking they were hoping they could get away with that, without ensuing the vegan wrath, but it's still an important step! They listed all the best & viable ways to reverse climate change, but holistic grazing is the key one because it can self fund. The bio-char & tree planting needs financial inputs (and trees are useless anyway, just the profit making arm of climate change)

@@Faustobellissimo actually we can get there without that :) well maybe we need some mass murder of right for lifers ;), but if we can get free/affordable birth control to everyone in the world that wants it, along with enough food & medical care that their first children will survive to adulthood, then all the evidence says that populations self-stabilise & then begin declining, as women choose to use birth control & limit themselves to only 2 children on average. Gotta get that birth control out there though! Not play politics with it, like is happening right now with trump cutting all birth control funding to poor people in the US & underdeveloped countries

@@lilaclizard4504 That won't be enough. To reverse the environmental damage, world population must be lowered to the tenth part, or even less, in a matter of few decades. Unfortunately, the benefits of the demographic transition in Western countries are countered by the excessive use of resources by industrialized people, compared to underdeveloped people. So, population reduction must also be coupled with degrowth, a drastic lowering of the standards of living. It's either this or the apocalypse.

My grandparents live in the countryside, up in the mountains, 4 kilometers away from the city. It's comforting when on vacation but there's barely any human settlements aside from the neighboring houses. Everything is green and untamed. Farms are erected at various places but the entire mountain range are ravaged by the forest green. At night, everything is pitchblack if not for the urban lights. The moon and the stars shine bright at night, animals, insects and birds sing their hymns...looking back in time, this village could have been submerged underwater or filled with strange creatures unknown to us. Despite the beauty of the place, I cant help but appreciate to live in a time to appreciate these kinds of things. Without humans, these untamed lands are boring and dull. Life continues with only two objectives: procreation and survival of the fittest. Without humans, nobody will be there to appreciate its beauty. We maybe an invasive species but it us who made this earth livelier. Mother Earth probably grew bored watching dinosaurs devour everything and asked Uncle Jupiter to throw her some asteroid. Maybe Mother Earth got tired of the dull life his children are living and was fascinated when apes started to walk upright. Maybe Mother Earth let us live because we are a delight to her. Invasive but amusing creatures. Maybe, the reason why were still here is because Mother Earth is proud that we, her grandchildren went into the moon and explored her sibling planets. We who explored ouside her neighborhood, the solar system. Earth doesnt share our prejudice towards our immorality concerning our actions. We maybe mistreating her but Mother Earth knows, one day we will learn...we will learn to love her the way she loved us... And find her a partner, another planet to call... HOME.

The solution to global warming is threefold: eliminate the most polluting aspects (coal, beef), plant hemp and others that grow faster than trees, and seed the oceans to encourage cyanobacteria to bloom ... those last two steps will provide more carbon capture than our civilization's output.

you didn't watch the video did you! Beef can reverse climate change when raised with holistic grazing. Meanwhile hemp is a C3 crop, that means that when conditions get hot & dry, as they will with climate change, it stops photosynthesising & if it doesn't get cool periods during the day, it just dies! It will therefore be more & more necessary as time goes on to switch from C3 plants to C4 plants, as they can continue photosynthesising in hot & dry conditions, unlike your hemp. When grown in the same environment, at 30 °C, your hemp will lose approximately 833 molecules of water per CO2 molecule that is fixed, whereas C4 grasses will lose only 277. (according to wiki, credit to them with a partial copy & paste in there) so FAR more growth than your hemp from them. For perspective, sugarcane is a c4 grass, it can produce up to 200 TONNES of organic matter per hectare per year! Hemp will produce an average of 6, but up to 12 tonnes per hectare, up to 4 crops per year in good conditions with year round rain or irrigation, so max of 48 tonnes per hectare per year instead of 200 tonnes, but with much more fossil fuel & labour involved to obtain just 1/4 of the material due to 4 plowings & harvestings instead of 1 (that's if it's harvested before seed, if it's multi-use grown & food is desired, then it's only 2-3 crops per year not 4, unlike the sugarcane that achieves both uses in that 200 tonnes C4 plants are primarily grasses found on the world's natural grasslands in hot, dry areas. Trade off for their hugely efficient carbon sequestration (23% of terrestrial carbon fixation despite making up only 5% of plants) is that they need a lot of manure & pruning, ie lots of cows in properly managed holistic grazing

@@AvangionQ I know that wasn't in the video, the video was trying to keep things as simple as possible, I was just trying to expand on why holistic grazing works. As for it's use, there's hundreds of millions of hectares of land around the world currently in holistic grazing & a lot more farmers that would switch if they could afford the initial infrastructure that's needed. It's fine for countries like Africa, they can do it with cheap, human herders, but for the developed world, the current grazing area needs to be divided into at least 100 or more paddocks & water points put into each one & that's a lot of fencing & infrastructure costs! Anywhere that the government funds that as part of farm or environmental subsidies, farmers HAPPILY switch, so that's what we need to push for, for example, the Australian government funded the change to 1 million hectares of grazing land that was running off onto the Barrier Reef & completely stopped all run off by doing so. Sugarcane is still causing serious run off issues, but all cattle farmers are happily moving all their cows daily in their new smaller paddocks (that they are now stocking with 2-4 times more cows than they had on the farm due to increased productivity with holistic grazing & therefore making huge profits) Now as for the numbers of cows in different systems though, 7% of the world's cows are in factory farms, 93% are on grass right now according to the UN's FAO Full details of exactly what livestock are eating & factory v grass can be found in this scientific paper www.researchgate.net/publication/312201313_Livestock_On_our_plates_or_eating_at_our_table_A_new_analysis_of_the_feedfood_debate & rainforests are cleared because poor people are starving & want an income, it has nothing to do with cattle! They simply grow whatever pays the most & if you remove what pays most, then they go with the second most & clear additional land to make up the financial shortfall from that loss. Amazon generally grows soybeans that are harvested for vegetable oil for human consumption & the waste then fed to chickens & sometimes pigs (since waste levels from vegetable oil production are around double the entire food needs of the world's chickens for a year, so need a second animal to dispose of the rest of the waste so it doesn't have to be burnt), while Indonesia's deforestation is generally for palm oil to meet the needs of vegans who are demanding "animal fats" & "tallow" be removed from everything from cosmetics to money & each time they do that, they demand that more palm oil be planted to produce these replacements, look at the fuss in the UK over tallow in the new polymer notes & vegans insistence that palm oil must replace it! So any deforestation is political & poverty related not cattle related. Cattle are happier on drier natural grasslands, they get fungus in rainforest climates & there are 5 billion hectares of grasslands in the world, of which only half have significant numbers of grazers on them (wild or domestic) the rest are burnt annually to prevent immediate desertification, but this is only a stopgap measure & cannot replace the proper management of returning migrating grazers to that land (and each hectare burnt is equal to 6,000 more cars on the road, Africa alone is burning enough to equal 6 trillion more cars on the roads due to a lack of available grazers to eat that grass! So we need to stop the politics & start the holistic grazing in the correct locations of the world if we want to fix climate change (that & some serious bio-char would be great too)

@@lilaclizard4504 `So any deforestation is political & poverty related not cattle related.` Except that animal agriculture, specifically cattle, is the leading cause of deforestation. `Of the four major deforestation drivers, beef has by far the largest impact. Converting forest to pasture for beef cattle, largely in Latin America, is responsible for destroying 2.71 million hectares of tropical forest each year-an area about the size of the state of Massachusetts-in just four countries. This is more than half of tropical deforestation in South America, and more than five times as much as any other commodity in the region.` www.ucsusa.org/global-warming/stop-deforestation/whats-driving-deforestation

@@AvangionQ The Amazon is currently 550 million hectares, so I really don't think less than 2 million hectares of that matters that much do you? Maybe you should focus on where the rainforest & other eco-systems are in genuine threat of being completely eliminated & all plants & animals in them sent extinct! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deforestation_in_Indonesia _"Between 1990 and 2000 20% of the forest area in Indonesia had been lost (24 million ha) and by 2010, only 52% of the total land area was forested (94 million ha).[13] Even despite a moratorium on new logging contracts imposed in 2010, the rate of deforestation continued to increase to an estimated 840,000 hectares in 2012, surpassing deforestation in Brazil."_ Likewise natural grassland eco-systems in the US are the most endangered eco-systems, with less than 0.5% remaining. These are the buffalo planes & can be VERY easily conserved while producing beef, yet you don't want to take any action there, just point fingers at poor people & order them to starve so you can keep burning your fossil fuels & producing food you don't even need instead of restoring your country's forests & rainforests & grasslands? Stop blaming cows & look at which animal is REALLY responsible for deforestation! Poor people clear land & grow whatever will pay them the most because otherwise they starve to death!
