Actually getting in trouble would mean, in the American context, being fired from your job, blacklisted, possibly having your home attacked by state funded terrorists, and being repeatedly investigated by the FBI on spurious allegations for years if not decades until they find some reason to put you away. Saying "global warming bad" is literally state policy. It's like saying, "Jesus is our Lord and Savior" in 1723 in England. That's not going to get you in trouble.

The really fun part is, CO2 has nothing to do with the increase of temperature, actually the graphics show almost always a inverted reality, as temperature rises, so does the CO2 level, because the oceans heat and release it into the atmosphere, the, when the temperature goes down, the opposite happens, with CO2 being absorbed back. The climate change armageddon propaganda is a fallacy. It has been propagating the leftist agenda and giving them voice, while serving to keep countries in develpment and under development in a virtual standstill when it comes to turning into competitive economies, thus maintaining large numbers of humans in less than ideal conditions. The diaspora of cientists linked to climate studies from the UN is a statement of how much it is a corrupt organism. I'm from Brazil, we have a scientist that shows clearly how much of these talks on global warming are absurd, and how much we actually bring in benefits, in reshaping the world. He has no funding, no support, simply because he believes that manking is a positive thing, rather and a stain of corruption on the face of the earth.

We're not fucked quite yet, but on current government plans we will be, the international agreements target 2 degrees but will actually cause around 3.5 degrees and most scientists agree that to ward off significant destruction (millions dying due to climate change) you need to stay below 1.5, considering we're already at 1.2 that's extremely unlikely. it's not possible to measure directly but the death toll probably is already in the hundreds of thousands or millions(mainly caused by increased droughts and famines) and will substantially increase. However, it is possible to keep climate change below levels of complete devastation if we act and demand significant action immediately.

@@truth.speaker Oh, but you don’t. See, our thermalization of the atmosphere isn’t uniformly distributed. Remember when Texas had that horrific cold snap? Now, it would be stupid to say it was a direct consequence of climate change. It was a direct consequence of a series of events. But, each event in that series can become more likely due to climate change, which means cold snaps like that can happen again. Plants don’t like cold snaps. At -40 °F, nothing survives. If the cold snap struck a few weeks later, the whole world would be suffering from food shortages. The food shortages would be milder for the rest of the world than for the U.S., but prices would go up. And, while we’re on the subject of higher food prices, now would be a good time to bring up California and the Western U.S. at large. California has an immense agricultural output. I love within an hour of at least three different agricultural capitals of the world. The closest to me is the Garlic Capital of the World. The interesting thing about the Western U.S. is that we’re in an intense drought. Droughts tend to be self-reinforcing. Hot, dry air bakes the moisture out of the soil. Water tends to help absorb heat, keeping the air cool. But, when the moisture is gone, the ground becomes easier to heat. Heat rises, so the air also heats up faster. This means it will be easier to heat up any remaining moisture the next time around. Dry conditions create drier conditions until there is no moisture left. What happens when there is no moisture left? No crops. No crops means no food. No food means food shortages. This isn’t just happening in California. It’s the entire Western U.S. When you have such a large region of dry heat, it creates an area of great geopotential height. It creates a blocking pattern. This forces a deflection in the jet stream, which spills over into the Midwest. Now, some atmospheric physics is required. The jet stream is effectively a standing wave. It also marks the dividing line between the arctic airmass and the rest of the world’s airmasses. When you add energy into a standing wave, things start happening. You start introducing more and more harmonics. At the same time, by heating up the stratosphere above the Arctic, the “tension” of the jet stream is relaxed. For a while, the changes in characteristics are somewhat predictable. After a while, they stop being predictable. One way or another, the amplitude and period of the jet stream will become increasingly erratic. At the same time, the jet stream will start moving south. Even though the Arctic airmass is heating up, it won’t matter to humans. -60 °F to -50 °F is a drastic warmup for the climate, but it’s still pretty damned cold to us. As far as you’re concerned, your cold country will only get colder and stormier. When the jet stream does finally enters a broadly chaotic regime, the whole world will suffer. The Midwest will become a meteorological battleground. It will alternate between drastic heat spells and frigid temperatures, both of which start to lose seasonality. Cold snaps start happening in late spring, then early summer. Hot spells start happening in late fall, then early winter. Storms will be constantly moving through, bringing hail, floods, derechos, and tornadoes. Crops can’t grow in that. The United States produces a lot of the world’s food. What happens when we stop being able to produce food? The United States suffers famines, the rest of the world suffers from higher prices. Not only will your country see colder and stormier weather, but it will also see more people. Climate refugees will be moving up north. Humans can’t survive prolonged exposure to wet bulb temperatures greater than 35 °C. The tropics should be there in a few decades. People will flee or they’ll die trying. They’ll move up north. What’s happening to America will happen to every other country between the polar ice caps and the tropics. You are definitely not ready for any of this. Bigger plants don’t mean a goddamned thing if they can’t grow.

In truth, it isn't exaggerated. Civilization is hitting the perfect storm of events. These are 1) Peak fossil fuels 2) Resource depletion 3) Climate Change - Unstoppable now as we have hit all the tipping points There is a finite amount of oil/coal/gas on this planet. In 2015 we hit peak oil, by 2035 both coal and gas will peak as human civilization has an increasing demand, supplies are dropping. Renewable energy is the ONLY means of addressing the energy crisis in the coming decades. Climate change is unstoppable because we have raised the temperature enough to 1) cause loss of Arctic ice sufficient to make the Arctic an absorber of energy rather than a reflector. This is the albedo effect. This leads to a far worse problem, and that is outgassing of methan from the methane hydrates on the ocean floor. Methane is 17x the greenhouse gas that CO2 is. Essentially we have lit the fuse on a temperature explosion on planet earth. There is nothing that can stop the rise below 6C and scientist believe that 4C is the human extinction point. The problem is that we are in the middle of the 6th great mass extinction. Humanity can not survive without the other species that feed us, that feed the rest of life, that inhabit the oceans. These things are dying. As we it 2, 3, 4 C, the earths biosphere is collapsing and we no longer can prevent it.

This really is one of the most glorious moments of television like ever. It's just so perfectly written, directed and acted. Massive kudos to Jeff Daniels and **especially** Paul Lieberstein.

"Endless wildfires, way too many to control" is exactly the situation we are in right now, in the middle of 2023. I think we have reached the beginning of the period this vid is describing.

I love how bluntly accurate this is. The general consensus has been “we’re basically fucked”, yet politicians think that it’s a huge hoax. Even when the evidence is all there.

You do realize we are 2 years past the predicted Global Warming Doom? So yah it was all a hoax. What you need 20 more years before you admit it? LOL why don't you just join a cult instead?

There's not an exact D-day, just little milestones we're hitting and things we can see happening but are choosing to do nothing about like coastal cities going underwater, ice caps melting, increasing temperatures leading to more droughts, etc. Basically if we do jack shit it's going to be "fun" a few decades from now.

I don't think that's true. The people that are genuinely concerned about climate change are the ones that aren't ignorant, greedy and/or simply don't care. The people that don't understand it or mistakenly believe that global annihilation is impossible because "everything has always worked out in the end" would be the ones that shrug.
