Talking About Our Generation | Young People Put The Experts On The Spot For COP26

What is the one change you think you could make? Tell us below...

[@philreilly6959]

I want to say 'buy an electric car', but at the moment they are just too expensive. Even second hand EVs are increasing in price at a fast rate. I assume that this is because more people are buying EVs, which is great for the planet, but not great for me. I'll have to wait a couple of years until very cheap Chinese EVs bring all EV prices down. I think in the near future (1 - 2 years) an Air Source Heat Pump might be the one thing that is attainable for me. Hopefully, after that, I'll be able to by and drive an EV. I'm 70 years old so I hope that purchase date will be sooner rather than later!!! Great applause to Robert and the excellent FC team for this groundbreaking video. I think all of the delegates to COP26 should be compelled to listen to young people when it is them who will have to deal with our lack of action for so many years. Thanks guys and thanks Robert. You truly are inspirational.

Get a 10kWh house battery min... Everyone gets one... That way solar, hydro and wind can be stored. Charge the battery at the low rates when there's lots of cheap electricity. Cheaper bills... Most people only really care about the cost. I feel that would have the biggest impact. Forget air source heat pumps That is unless you have a house that was made for it. To many bad points Thermal mass storage boilers are where it will go. (ZEB) get as much solar as you can get on your house. Forget net zero its not going to happen by 2050. Unless people want to rebuild there house.

Use public transport.. So you live n a city, great that could work... don't live in a city its not good. Lets be honest if they could chose they would not use public transport. Nobody talks about it... Society does not want to give up convenience. Make green tec convenient people will change to that. Look at tesla's there better than ICE and people are buying them.

Dear Fully Charged Team, in all the years I have been watching and supporting the channel this is by far the best and most emotive episode. You need to carry this on with a mix of the young, experts and everyday people to wake the greater society up to the most precious thing we have TIME, to engender a sense of urgency and look beyond our immediate distractions.

[@hal6702]

Many of the so called "experts" care only about PROFIT. This climate change is one of the biggest scam ever. They say it's the end of the World which means we should care more about fixing the issue instead of caring to make profit. In reality, while the slaves will spend more money and their time "to save the planet", the masters will make more profit. I'll give as example the person at @9:00. The girl asks very clearly, how the people are incentivized to use more the public transportation, and the guy avoids the answer. I always said the public transportation and the car parkings outside the city should be free. That's why we pay taxes. People will drive to the city, leave thir cars in those FREE (I mean, paid by our taxes) parkings, then either go by bike, scooter, walking, bus, etc. @24:00 excuses for the elites. EVERY time you can find excuses; it's sad when the peasants accept them. UK is not a country of the people; UK is a country of peasants ruled by the masters who through corruption and greed now try to destroy the remains of the middle class.

[@knowledgebyte]

@@sandersson2813 the thing about an EV is that once you have one, you won’t want another car, so that cuts down emissions over time. They are not a complete answer, but they do neutralise the consumption of cars and stop emissions over time. They also cut out nasty pollution in cities. So on average, they are a better choice. We will need a blend of technologies and natural choices and environmental work to make things work. An EV is a good start. Or just rent one or use an Uber EV in the cities. Once you have driven one, you will soon realise they are simple and maintenance free.

[@reeshar1234]

Great episode and excellent to give young people a voice. The experts were a little more of a mixed bag though. The UCL researcher wandered all over the place giving not very clear answers. Why was the first and seeming worst impact of global warming death of the coral reef? Surely flooding, unlivable areas because of extreme heat, and migration are the critical impacts with death of the coral reef being a consequence? I'm not trying to minimise the concern of how global warming is going to affect nature, just that she didn't seem to have a very clear message of what the risk to us and the world was. And the guy asked about buses and planes made no mention of hydrogen which, I think, has got to be part of the energy mix because it is so much more energy-dense than batteries.

[@charlestoast4051]

Whilst it's great to have a simple slogan like "Stop burning stuff!" it should also apply to "burning" fissile material in a nuclear reactor, which of course leaves very long lasting contaminated waste for which there is no effective and safe disposal process. The nuclear power industry is reliant on massive subsidies, and always under-performs, yet the UK continues to build ridiculously expensive nuclear power stations. I love the fact that all these politicians have to be really careful what they promise at Glasgow, since environmental groups now have a successful tactic of prosecuting individuals for not fulfilling such promises, leading to the mothballing of newly built Dutch coal-fired power stations, for example.

[@drew031127]

*Thought experiment* What if we imagined all of humanity living on a spaceship instead of a planet. This may help people grasp the idea that resources are finite and that maintaining proper atmospheric levels is of the utmost importance. I think it's just too difficult for people to perceive how we're changing our climate and many look at our vast planet and think it can provide infinite resources. Maybe a change of perspective would help, no one would argue that resources are not finite on a spaceship. In this scenario, I believe people would be much more willing to share resources, reduce waste, and just be more mindful of their actions.

Solar is great, I know I had 8 panels on a previous house, but only when it's sunny or at the least light. Here in the autumn, there is virtually no sun, until at leas 8.00 and we loose light by about 4-4.30. On low wind days we have zero option, but to use gas..

Robert's introduction included the detail that, while the number of EVs has gone up remarkably in the last decade, the aggregate power consumption has gone down. This suggests that the boogeyman of "not enough power if everyone switched to EVs" is at the very least subject to few modifying conditions. Like how much home solar installed. And what power management systems are employed to even out the grid usage.

[@clivepierce1816]

An excellent example of what is needed to educate, not just the young, but the wider public. However, experts should not flinch in delivering the unvarnished truth when it comes to expected climate impacts. The response to the question about how the Earth would look in 2080 was weak. The public need look no further than the 2021 Chatham House Risk Assessment for an answer. On our current trajectory, humanity’s prospects within several decades are much less palatable than Helen Czerski would have her questionner believe.

[@DavidKnowles0]

An if Chatham House Risk Assessment is wrong it will be use as reason not to take action in the future, that the risk one take about making predictions about the future. An that why scientists should never go for the absolute worst possible future because you are almost certainly setting yourself up for failure. Take coral reefs for example, yes they could be extinct in 2080 apart from small patches but there actually a bit of evidence now coming along that show many coral reefs can actually adapt to live in higher temperatures.

I have been looking at ways to burn less gas, including designing my own heating controller / system and will doubtless move to a heat pump as the prices come down.

Want to see EV adoption? Everywhere there is currently one rapid charger, install two more (motorway services, I'm looking at you). Make it so a charger that "can't connect" MUST offer free vend, rather than sitting there useless. The biggest barrier to EV adoption isn't number of chargepoints, it's that at any given time 25% of them aren't working. Every long journey I've done, the issue is never finding a chargepoint, it's finding one that's working, and not already in use.

One of the children was scripted to actually say they were sick of talking about it. It's pretty much an acceptance of failure of an argument when you dont want to talk about it.

[@fullychargedshow]

No one was scripted… they just read their own questions.

[@DavidKnowles0]

They are sick of talking about it because that all the likes of Boris and co do, talk, talk about climate change and how bad it will be but when it comes to actually making changes, they do things like cut taxes on short haul flights, implement a decade freeze on fuel duties. The opposite of what needed to tackle climate change.

Totally agree, Everyone's waiting for someone else to sort it for them. I'm not putting in £40k of green tec for the planet. I'm doing it so I don't have to pay high gas and electric bills. After 10 years I would have payed for it anyway. (£6000 a year bill)

What she’s talking about happening in 2080 is ridiculous. All of that is happening now or will be by 2030 or so. And the guy defending short distance flying at the end. Give me a break. Absolute insanity.

I agree with you second statement (the peasants have to make sacrifices, while the elites will always find some excuses); the first is just fear-mongering.

[@christill]

@@hal6702 We’ll see if it’s fear mongering (it’s not). I’ve been following scientists who tell it like it is for years, so I would suggest educating yourself properly. Paul Beckwith and Kevin Anderson in particular. As well as meteorologists like Scott Duncan.

@@christill Either ALL people will make sacrifices (rich people, kings and queens included) OR we will go down together. Until then, I DON'T CARE. If I was the captain of a cruise line which takes water will I ask my passengers ? - Hey, passengers ! this boat is going to go under, but don't worry, if you pay I'll fix it and meanwhile I'll also make some profit on your behalf.

[@christill]

@@hal6702 You don’t have to pay anything. We solve this by reducing consumption, which means just buying less, doing less. It’s pretty easy. And by refusing to partake in the economy the way the government wants, GDP will drop and then they’ll panic. Which will hopefully lead to an ousting of them and a new system being formally introduced. And by the way, the domestic flying thing isn’t just about rich people. The “peasants” also fly domestically because it’s cheaper than taking the train.

[@hal6702]

@@christill I support "reducing the consumption", but we have to be realists and agree that it will take time to convince the majority of people. Regarding the flying, as a leader you MUST be an example (without compromise).

Politics. No more politics. Politics won't change anything. One man is transforming our world: Elon Musk.

[@Boopop1024]

"No more politics" - are you suggesting we'd be better off with a dictator or going back to an absolute monarchy? Bizarre comment to add. Also you'll have to forgive me if I'd rather politicians were the ones that effected the biggest changes in society going forward. Letting corporations get away with doing what they like is what has got us in to the climate crisis to begin with.

[@sandersson2813]

@@Boopop1024 Behave Tom, its not companies that are to blame for the human element of climate change it is the demand of you, me and everyone else to improve our standard of life that has made the contribution. Stop trying to blame other companies when it is YOUR demand which has driven it. That's the problem with climate hypocrites, they always look for others to make change and want to blame everyone else for it, rather tham take responsibility for their own actions.

[@Boopop1024]

@@sandersson2813 Jog on, BP, Shell etc have known about climate change for decades and have sought to bury and/or discredit it and hide it from the public at large. BP themselves invented the term "Carbon footprint" after all as a way to shift the blame to the individual. I do not drive, I consume very little red meat, and I don't go on flights, so careful who you call a climate hypocrite pal. You seem to be adopting a tactic very similar to oil companies, I wonder if you have shares in them 🤔

[@sandersson2813]

@@Boopop1024 You are a hypocrite though. You have a house, you use roads, you consume plastic, you use electricity, youre on the internet, you consume thousands of products that are made from oil, you buy food that has to be transported to your house. You are 100% dependent on oil and gas for everything you do and you dont even realise it. Imagine how shit life would be without fossil fuel tranforming life. Would you really like to live like the Amish? Yes, we will move away from it, but it will rightfully take decades Why do you mention flights and driving and not taking oart as if that makes you some sort of climate hero? Do you not realise the tiny contribution to CO2 that air and car travel make? European cars =1% of global co2 and GLOBAL air travel is 2%, which isbthebsame as running the internet, so youre patting yourself on the back for 3%?😂 😂 Im not a denier, im just realistic how much we rely on fossil fuel and how much longer we will need it for. You need to have a realistic understanding of how long the transition will be and has to be.
