Renewable energy is more harmful to the environment than it does good

[@garybrown2039]

@Sally Hope there are some studies that suggest that solar panels aren’t efficient enough to generate less net carbon emissions than when they are manufactured, especially in China. They also potentially hurt the earth through our mining and materials productions needed to make them. Wind is also inefficient and potentially harmful to ecosystems because birds hit them . Water is really going nowhere from what I can see and geothermal hasn’t been effective. However nuclear fission power produces much less carbon and the waste can be safely stored. Plus many countries are trying to be the first to make effective fusion reactors. So that is our best option.

[@garybrown2039]

@Hrishik Raj oh I know that everything has its ups and downs. I’m just saying some are better than others. Also fusion may be no easy goal but it also will be a gold mine for the energy industry and that’s why people are investing so much money into it. I also mentioned nuclear fission for a reason because I believe that’s our best option right now considering how much we’ve advanced when handling that type of waste.

Some simple things we can all do in everyday life: - Reduce your consuption of meat and dairy products - Prefer walking, bicycling and public transport - Save energy: take shorter showers, turn off lighting and electonics you don't need at the moment - Repair stuff, instead of buying new immediately - Recycle and only buy what you need ...and much more... I know not everyone can do everything, but most of these things are simple, and the cumulative effect of a lot of people doing small things will have a real effect on slowing down climate change. Also, I've noticed that showing example really makes people change their ways. I've definitely made lasting changes hearing what others are doing. We're pack animals and we wish to do what others do. We humans need a paradigm shift. If we play our cards right though, we'll eventually find solutuions, fix this mess and have a lush and clean planet where all the latitudes are habitable.

Very good video and short enough for those that are doubtful of climate change. I just disagree with the hopeful ending. It only helps to keep us complacent. We are stealing our children’s futures, and needed immediate change yesterday.

[@vormtagg519]

I'm very late to this video, so my reply is obviously late. I just want to say that while I get where you are coming from, we simply cannot exist, make changes, and move forward without hope. Hope sustains us and helps humanity make better choices. False hope is not good, nor is apathy, or complacency, or willful ignorance, but real hope is necessary. If we want to protect the planet and our future, we NEED hope. We must face the music with bravery and conviction, and we can only change things if we recognize the hope we can have.
