Lewis Black | 11/15/14 San Antonio TX: Climate Change

Lew takes a couple of questions from the San Antonio audience about climate change.

If there was a government position for Secretary Of Common Sense Lewis Black would be our guy.

[@Horny_Fruit_Flies]

Well, he's not a scientist either. There are hundreds of thusands of *specialist species* that are fucked since they don't handle environmental changes well, but not humans. Humans are extremely adaptive, like rats and cockroaches. Climate Change won't kill us. Sure, hundreds of millions of humans, maybe even billions could die due to mass starvation, lack of water, mass migrations, and more extreme weather conditions, but as a species, we will survive easily.

[@jdsal2010]

If those 96 were paid by the US government to say it while the other 4 graduated at the top of their class and had no ties with the US government and had no funding from them or some slanted left wing organization, then yes. Lets look at it this way,; you're putting your money on a bike race. The #1 biker is the last three year winner of Absa Cape Epic Cycling Competition , the other racer is a 12 year old kid from Iowa that races other kids around the block. You put the kid on a Cannondale Supersix EVO Carbon Ultegra Di2 2019 Road Bike . The top racer, well you put him on a common 3 year old kids tricycle. Which one is gonna win ? If you say the racer on the tricycle, I give up. Check yourself into the recycling center, there's no help at this point !

Your right, we should use our resources more intelligently. But why should we build this CO2 nonsense to sell it to the people?

[@rway019]

Gus Sandborg, RE: the climate has change before. It is true that the climate has changed before. We understand fairly well the mechanisms through which changes have occurred on the regional and global scales. Over the long-term (thousands of years) the earth's climate is controlled by orbital cycles which control the amount and seasonality of insolation received at the earth's surface (particularly at high latitudes). On shorter timescales solar variability and volcanism play a role - these combined factors and their resultant impacts on the oceans have lead to periodic warming events such as the Medieval Warm Period and the Little Ice Age. However, these natural factors are not the main causes of recent warming. We can be assured of this for two reasons - one, solar output has been declining since the ~1960s overall and two, volcanism has occurred often enough that it should have a substantial cooling impact on the earth's climate. In contrast, we have a radiatively active greenhouse gas (CO2) which has been added to the atmosphere in ever increasing amounts. Satellite measurements can detect less heat escaping to space (e.g. an increasing greenhouse effect) and ground based measurements detect more longwave radiation hitting the surface of the earth. Beyond this today the satellite measurements are precise enough that we can actually evaluate which wavelengths are allowing heat to escape into space - overall there has been a substantial decrease in the amount of heat escaping to space at the wavelengths where CO2 is important. That climate has changed before does not mean that climate change today cannot be anthropogenically driven - in fact it exemplifies how sensitive the climate can be. If I can make a suggestion that may help you better understand climate change, I suggest that you read an introductory level and then a graduate level physical geography textbook - it may help you with understanding the key role that Greenhouse Gases have played throughout the Earth's history.

[@Winkmeister]

Yes, there were accurate maps of the Antarctic coastline long before (centuries!) today's satellite technology made that possible...

I've used the Adam argument many times myself. We were supposed to care for the garden. Lewis is a modern prophet.

[@GoodNaturedMischief]

It's the RATE of climate change is what is alarming. There have always been cycles of climate warming/cooling, but humans are increasing the RATE in which it's happening and THAT is what's scary. So don't call climate change BS when it's staring you in the face. Denial ain't gonna make it go away.

[@QazwerDave]

It's also the level it is reachng now. It's never been so high !

[@sodthong]

Climate change is and always has been caused by the Grand Solar Minimum, look it up.

[@QazwerDave]

Solar minimum is low solar radiation. That means temperature going down, not up as in global warming !

[@markschiavone8003]

GoodNaturedMischief , you do know that the rate is not a concern. Bill Nye talked about this and basically the time line that shows this supposed *excelorated rate* was way too short for a accurate calculation. even if the rate is excelorated we have no clue what level humans are to blame. the earth has gone from ice age to desert many many times without humanity.

[@american37]

Yes, everyone agrees that there is climate change. The climate has always changed. The disagreement is about whether or not it's possible to do much about it, and if climate scientists know enough that in trying too halt climate change they won't do more harm than good. I mean, how often have scientists looked at the results of what they've done and said, "Oops!". For examples, galore, just look at the pharmaceutical industry. The climate may not be as complicated as is the human body, but it is pretty complex. And an "oops" there will have adverse effects on all of us, not just on those who took some particular medication.

[@dalegreen721]

@J A Yeah, of course you do. What are you? The cabin boy? What is it with you Americans? Science isn't a conspiracy created by one of your stupid political parties. The vast majority of scientists in the world don't give a rats ass about your weird liberals or conservatives or religious extremists or your fricking economy. I find this a lot with conspiracy theorists and science deniers like you. Everything is about them and their little region. Something happens in Russia, or China, or Japan, or France - it's all about their own countries government or whatever extreme religious denomination that they are a member of.

What studying did you do? You look out your window once a day and make a conclusions from what you see?

a simple approach to a complicated issue. the IPCC reports have consistently shown that change is happening and it's inevitable. It also seems to show that the impact of human activity (negative though a lot of it may be) is not as great as some people think. Also, while zero carbon footprint is a laudable idea, the US is guilty of so much less than other countries (e.g., Asia, China, Russia, etc.) at polluting, and are so far ahead of the curve on remedying both the causes and results of industrial pollution that we are an exemplar for the rest of the world. Now, if they'd just pay attention and follow our already existing examples of ecological responsibility.

Well Lewis, as a scientist who does know what they are talking about, Greenland’s condition is critical - caused through global warming and the complexities associated with that phrase/subject - it all relates to black body sea mass (there’s a joke in there somewhere for you). The situation is not a lineal deterioration of the environment, it is exponential. When it comes it will come quickly.From scientific research the danger to human beings will emanate from air pollution and shortage of water. Which sounds strange to most people as the sea level will rise therefore it appears to be a contradiction. Do not expect governments to inform you of the truth. They know the truth but refrain from informing people of the situation for whatever reason. The USA is supposed to be zero-carbon by the year 2030. By that time it will be too late as it will be impossible to reverse the situation to pull out of the nose-dive to regain environmental equilibrium. Make as much fun as you like. You cannot fuck with nature and I assure you that nature will have the last laugh.

[@dalegreen721]

it is a very frightening and grim future for us if we don't do anything to reign in the CO2 emissions. I am afraid for my children. Reading these comments make me more afraid because people argue the facts and elect people who allow corporations (the fossil fuel and coal industry in particular) to stay in business. The changes we are seeing in the recent years - especially this year - with floods and fires, record breaking heat... caused by climate change is very, very, scary.

[@RoguePhysicist]

I too, am a scientist. The models predicting the dire consequences are computational. And these computer models are always overestimating from reality, probably programmed with false assumptions. There has been no increase in global temperature since 1998. From 1978 to 1998 it rose 0.4C. There was another increase in the early 1900s. Since we've been keeping track, the average global temperature has risen 0.9C. And it doesn't follow CO2 levels. This guy is correct. You're not going to be informed of the truth by the government. Instead, you're going to hear doom-and-gloom scenarios, as you have been hearing since the first Earth Day, about how we only have X amount of time before the disaster hits. Yet none of these predictions came true. But that doesn't stop them from crying, "The sky is falling! The sky is falling!"

TONS of people were not aware that Keystone XL pipeline was just a way to ship Canadian oil down to our gulf coast refineries because it was cheaper than sending them to their own Candian west coast refineries. So it would have been Canadian oil - which as he says here and is totally true, is the worst kind of oil there is - traveling along a pipeline through our country and it was going to be crossing all kinds of very important bodies of fresh water that we rely on for drinking and irrigation, all with a history that clearly shows they are not able to responsibly manage such a project without spillage taking place and all to make some Canadians just a bit more rich than they already are by shaving a couple bucks off their costs by piping that oil south instead of west. No fucking thank you. We would all be screwed in a major incident while they would have very little liability as usual. Even if it bankrupted them we would still be left holding the bag with their oil all in our precious fresh water while executives would have floated away on golden parachutes. All the jobs for the pipeline were temporary, just like every other job in a trade where you just move from project to project. 100% not worth it.

They merely read until they get to a part which they either agreed or disagreed with, then immediately stop reading and begin to formulate their response. 15 people JUST stopped reading and are now typing out their response to this comment. They are ALWAYS correct, and EVERYONE else who does not agree is an asshole or a "fucking idiot". You can see it for yourself. Simply scroll down. It is literally a sign of insanity to even try to discuss this due to the scathing reality that our very education system is so horrendously flawed that we are completely unable to educate anyone about a massive fossil record which pre-dates and over-rules ALL assumptions made regarding Earth's climate. BILLIONS of years worth of a record but let's ignore that and only focus on opinion. THAT is exactly what this entire comment section is filled with... Opinions. Opinions which in large part, are not based upon fact. They are mostly based upon assumption. Assumption without considering the entire picture. I have found only ONE comment under this video which has an entire fossil record supporting it. The comment does not contain opinion or judgment, only fact. That, is actually sad. There should be hundreds if not thousands of factual responses here. But we do rank only 17th in education compared to other major nations. So my dreams of more than one factual comment may not be realized any time soon.
