Funny but its all true as well

[@SirDrAdamB]

Climate Experts: Syukuro Manabe, Phil Jones, James Hansen, etc. The experts and very smart people who are warning us about climate change. Funny comedian, but like almost every person who denies climate change, hasn't taken the time to research...which is ironic because his joke is about people who say stuff without knowing what they're talking about (i.e. him). Don't understand the motivation of deniers. I have no agenda or motive, I've just looked at the research and side with the logic.

[@johnstamos54288]

[@getsomelandawatertank6913]

He's talking about the overarching responsebility being placed upon the everyday citizen, hence the comment "special lightbulb". Cooperations have made trillions of dollars polluting the earth now there turning around and selling us more products for a cleaner earth essentially starting a new war "against the consequence of the actions" they've been involved in this whole time..

[@kwarterman]

Hmmm, sided with the "logic" that suits what you want to believe. It's not really amazing what people will say when their continued financing hinges on providing the results the financer is looking for.

[@AveGluteusMaximus]

The climate change skepticism aged like shit. Hes Australian. Idk what world other commenters live in but clearly they haven't been reading about Australia for one thing....i enjoyed some other sets but this one just came off a little out of touch in the middle there in my opinion. Turned me away from the guy. The irony makes me laugh for all the wrong reasons. It's not like 8 years ago the climatologists didn't know the anthropogenic shitstorm brewing in the atmosphere and weren't already doing everything they could to inform less educated people in layman's terms. This guy mocks the light bulbs and bags because he's either as out of touch or, worse yet, as in denial on that subject as a lot of his audience is.

[@ec9713]

I think you are missing the point. Just 100 companies are responsibile for 70% of GLOBAL emissions. No one is saying lightbulbs and bags don't help, they are saying its pointless if changes aren't made elsewhere.

[@johnstamos54288]

NPC says what

[@leahcimnetteur-wz1sp]

you definitely got that wrong, i needed a second time watching it as well, but then it clicked straight in. this is NO climate change skepticism at all. it's more on point than anything else. and skepticism & criticism of the consumer's attitude, as: if we don't stop all that shit of exploiting the world and ressources and act now (!!!) different lightbulbs won't help anyway. buy & use less - that is the bottom line here. and don't go on throwing nuclear weapons in the sea or elsewhere as if nothing would happen ... and x -factor - he forgot the female musicians of the UK. but i guess he is a rocker.

[@AveGluteusMaximus]

@@ec9713 sorry for the late response. Changes are being made elsewhere. Perhaps in part thanks to the little guy leading by example. Corporate decision makers walk among us! They are even family to some average joe who can tell them to use a reusable bag and plant the seed of a constructive attitude. Small actions can stimulate big change in the form of a domino effect. The social pressure we unknowingly exert on our neighbors by making the small changes could some day reach a corporate decision maker for all we know.
