Discussion of climate, how it is changing, activism around that, the politics, and the energy systems change we need in order to stabilize things.
As a starting point, the burning of fossil fuels, and to a lesser extent deforestation and release of methane are responsible for the warming in recent decades:
How much each change to the atmosphere has warmed the world:
Recommended actions to cut greenhouse gas emissions in the near future:
Anti-science, inactivism, and unsupported conspiracy theories are not ok here.
Wow, it’s been a while since I’ve heard someone spout this much hopium and half-truths.

Please find a better source for global warming information. Perhaps start with Hansen.
I love how the graphs overlap up to our current time but it optimistically looks for it to diverge starting basically just now but we won't really be able to tell till like 2050 once we have enough of a significant deviation to maybe see we are on a better track. We have done stuff but I would not call it a lot. I would call it rather minimal.
Simon Clark is great, really well produced and entertaining videos. I think he goes a little overboard with the relentless optimism in this one but it's worth watching anyway.
