Belgrade Security Conference
เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 25 ส.ค. 2022
The Belgrade Security Conference (BSC) is the biggest high-level Western Balkan conference on foreign policy and security.
It gathers world leaders, diplomats, representatives of international organisations, think-tankers, journalists, activists, academics, and all the brave thinkers who shape the present to influence a better future.
The BSC is an environment for more stimulating and engaging discussions on the most relevant topics. The most complex challenges we face today, such as geostrategic challenges, the future of the EU, the fight for democracy, cybersecurity, energy dependency, fighting organised crime, disinformation, malign influences, require brave thinking and honest dialogue, which BSC provides.

This small council of foolishness is hilarius: a bunch of people with no clue speaking about a fictional world they very much would like to exist and they trying to sell to their audience like it was genuine.
They talk about EU expansion like it is a righteous ambition. It is not. This is a colonial expansion written all over it and it will hit a wall head on with Russia. EU is a problem. There is not secret about it. EU wants the fertile lands of Ukraine, lets do away with this merit pretending.
Оргијање НАТО окупатора у својој колонији.
Authoritarianism means anything thats not hard left or centre left
One of the more persuasive articulations by Mrs. Kovtun of why Ukraine deserves to become a member of the European Union and why they need this 'anchor'....
Its refreshing to see net zero zealots finally recognising the many potential negative impacts of the policy, And I agree with the first panelist who says she no longer uses the term 'clean' energy. There is no such thing. The speaker makes the control of minerals sound all so sinister. Don't trust the 'yellow peril' or those pesky Ruskis! Let's just forget how Britain and the USA have aimed to control oil and gas reserves across the Middle East for over 100 years. That involved toppling unfavourable political leaders and starting wars. An ambition that still continues. Regime changes in Iraq and Libya, And keeping so friendly with the cradle of democracy., human rights, gender equality, etc - Saudi Arabia. It was Europe's paranoid opposition to shale gas that forced its dependency on Russian gas, which has in turn led to the energy price crisis, as we have gone onto boycott Russian gas.
First 10 minute summary and suggesting need to be under 1.5 degrees before tipping points is just not true or scientific. Minerals challenges talks about appear to be valid. But only if assuming Carbon dioxide is the boogie man requiring urgent electric alternatives.
The Elites are playing games. Is this a joke? To sort this problem out mothers must stay at home for the 1st 3 years of the child's birth to nurture the child. Then the world will be a better place. And there shoud be a resposible father in the mix. The UN is Satanic and is messing up society.The UN is not doing its job, they were supposed to prevent war. You are used as cannon fodder and leverage. They created feminism to cause competition, get cheaper labour, get more tax, and break up the nuclear family. The children have suffered the most. Many women regret not starting a family. Tertiary institutions have been brainwashed and hijacked and waste time on pointless ideas. Climate crisis OMG. All humans are victims of war, we have to stop differentiating by gender and colour. We have to focus on love. It takes a mother and a village to raise a child. 'Feminnist' gives it such a negative tone. Soon women will go to war because men will be emasculated totally or commit suicide, because they have lost their meaning and identity. Focus on preventing war. You learned English to learn woke buzzwords Jebi Ga. There is too much money in war. These buzzwords are a distraction. This rhetoric is divisive. The planet is in total chaos. We have to focus on traditional decent values. Russia is laughing at America how far they have fallen from the great nation they once were because divisive policies are being focused on. The war is hiding a sex trafficking and prostitution ring, Wake up. I listened for an hour and just heard woke buzzwords, i just lost more faith in humanity. This is one of the steps to transhmanism. God help us.
Do not or get Putin too is the WEF
You are speaking of the WEF, SOROS, GATES, China...
😢😅😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😆🤣🤣🤣
Huge hidden costs not accounted for: One subsidy dollar takes about $20 in economic activity to generate which in turn produces 20 times more carbon. Also to give out tax dollars an equal tax or inflation must also be compensated by increased production. Higher prices also produce vast amounts of carbon. Nukular and geothermal produce much less carbon unless subsidies or higher prices are incurred. We now have much better drilling and reactor techniques.
I like the way you describe a politician says 'it will be' and suddenly it happens, NOT!
One day , Germany, Spain, Italy, Netherlands will understand the free lunch they are using for defence?
Ukraine can't win this war and never could. No wonder weapon will save Zelenskyy hide as no wonder weapon saved Hitler's hide. According to NBC: "Biden administration officials are worried that Ukraine is running out of forces, while Russia has a seemingly endless supply, officials said. Ukraine is also struggling with recruiting and has recently seen public protests about some of President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s open-ended conscription requirements." Russians are fighting a war of attrition. It's not about getting more territory. It's about decimating Ukrainian army. In latest offensive that proved to be an epic unmitigated disaster Ukrainian army showed itself completely impotent . This impotence is the result of a successful implementation of this attrition strategy. According to Ukrainian soldiers interviewed by BBC Russians now have advantage in artillery 1:10. Russians use more than 100 precision glide bombs every single day and Ukrainian army has zero defense against them. Meanwhile Zelenskyy is running out of cannon fodder. He is forced conscripting even amputees, HIV positive and people with hepatitis. It's a sign of utter desperation and hysteria. At this point unconditional surrender is the only practical solution for Ukraine . Hitler's Germany also refused to admit defeat until Hitler killed himself, then Keitel signed unconditional surrender.
Earth's greenhouse effect is the model of a system always in saturation. A system in saturation can not have any more effect with the addition of more of its active elements. All the greenhouse radiant energy from the earth’s surface is entirely absorbed by greenhouse gases within 20 meters of the surface to add 10°F (5.55°C) to earth's average temperature. After 20 meters from the surface there is no more radiant greenhouse energy. Its further heat transfer is by convection i.e. molecules bumping into each other. This is high school taught science. The United Nation's IPCC science report makes it clear it is not discussing active greenhouse gas behavior when in the back of a 200 page report it declares it took its greenhouse gas samples at 20 THOUSAND meters altitude and only at that one altitude! This is a legal back stop to protect the instigators from prosecution of criminal fraud. It can be argued a reasonably high school educated person would know better than to accept the report as being relevant to global warming caused by greenhouse gases because by only sampling greenhouse gases at 20,000 meters altitude the report has made it transparent it is not discussing active greenhouse gas behavior or earth's greenhouse effect. Such legal back stops are common when misrepresenting products through vague wordings. Such items as a beverage labeled "All Natural Fruit Drink Flavor" might be discovered when reading the ingredients to have a statement "contains no actual fruit juice". Noncondensing greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide can have a share in the greenhouse effect, but they can not change the overall greenhouse effect because it is always in saturation due to the strong greenhouse gas water vapor. At 1% average tropospheric water vapor 99-1/2% of earth's greenhouse effect is due to the strong greenhouse gas water vapor. After global warming was rising at 2/10°C per decade in the 1970s and 1980s it suddenly paused in 1991 when global warming was reported at 1.1°C and has not gone any higher than that reported temperature as of 2022 when global warming was reported at 1.1°C. Global warming has been stalled at about 1°C for thirty years prior to 2022.
blah blah blah, all of this is temporary churn the honey pot. 300 helium bed atomic reactors on the coastlines cracking seawater into hydrogen, feeding the grids, and powering CARBON capture. THIS is the ONLY technology with the energy density per KWH per $ that is doable. (My God! Who the fuck dresses this woman? I'm sorry so sorry! But NO! here: New Women's Dress for Success, by John T. Molloy (Author))
I switched off when she said co2 is at 490 ppm. If you not even can get the numbers right you are not credible at all.
Russia in Madagascar. Lol Thats like the US in a couple of dozen countries putting in there puppet govt's for the last 80 years. Good grief. Russia fear non stop. laughable at how ignorant people are to what is truly moving the world.
If climate change is such an urgent issue then would it not make sense for the whole world to concentrate on helping the biggest emitters reduce their emissions? 5 countries, China (31%,) U.S. (13.5%,) India (7.3%,) Russia (4.7%) and Japan (2.9%) account for almost 60% of global emissions. There are several factors that account for the placings of these countries that could be discussed or argued but the bottom line is that a reduction of just 10% in that total emission count would reduce total world emissions by 6% and get the World a long way towards reducing the damage being caused. China is still using coal and won't make any appreciable progress in reducing that use until 2030 and that may not be soon enough. India still emits large quantities of CO2 from simple cooking fires. It will cost a great deal to get these 5 countries further along the road to the kind of reductions needed and it would make sense for the rest of the World to help them get to that goal. There could be compensatory deals made to give the contributing countries some goods or services either presently or at some future date. The rest of the World would continue to try to reduce emissions as well and if that 40% could be reduced by 5% it would add 2% to the total reduction to get to 8% as a start and without destroying the economies of these smaller emitters. All countries in the World should begin an ongoing tree planting program everywhere and especially in remote areas and undertake a concerted effort to properly maintain existing forests to clear deadwood and other flammable debris to reduce the damage done by fires. A thorough investigation should be done to determine how to stop the acceleration of the spread of these fires. Trees are a very important weapon in the reduction of CO2 and the production of oxygen.

when talking about the planet and it climate, why do we focus on one thing, there are 16 or so gases in our atmosphere CO2 is 0.035%of it, un yet we focus solely on this gas to be the end of everything, the human body needs 3 vital gases to exist and grow, (among other things), co2 plays a big part in the process of life, not only humans require this gas the animals, insects, crustations, fish, all plant forms, and yet we want to eliminate co2, with the population slowly growing the land these green energy projects take up, take away arable land to produce food, and areas where trees need to grow, are we that stupid, ?
You will never see fossil fuel going anywhere !...

Blind spots ?...I'll say. If you had those blind spots you couldn't drive or even walk !...
The average "Green" supporter thinks that the transition to renewables and electrifying everything will not change their lifestyle while the elitists that are promoting all these renewables have a different agenda that centers around degrowth, deindustrialization, and anti-capitalism.
We need to start calling "renewables" what they actually are - unreliables.
Usual China bashing by decadent and arrogant European colonialists.
China is a human rights abusing totalitarian dictatorship. It's not that hard to bash.
C02 is not your enemy.
This discussion exemplifies renewable’s’ Elephant in the room. Namely that Nuclear is the near zero carbon solution with minimal environmental disruption compared to ‘renewables’. Today’s new 3rd and 4th generation designs are passively (inherently) safe and increasingly faster and more affordable to build. Without military-style urgency of a Nuclear ramp up there is simply no way of avoiding well over 1.5 degrees of global warming within two decades. By then, positive feedback takes over at an apocalyptic pace. I’m now 70 and won’t see the worst of it. Hopefully my deluded years of voting ‘green’ won’t seriously affect my next incarnation.
Russia and China use SMRs.
I think we need to really think mining in space and put more development into that direction. Earth mining is a no no if we want to keep going the way we are . It might seem far-fetched, but it's the only future for the green revolution. The focus of the next generation will have to be space . The way it's going is not sustainable for the future .
This money making scheme by the already super rich must stop. Find the old but true graphs of historic earth temperatures from the deep ice core samples and discover how low the Co2 count is now compared to the past few thousand years - We need more Co2 not less if we wish to grow vegetation, Letalone food.
Yup, fossil fuel emissions may have saved the planet.
What nonsense. Is she gonna keep global temperature stable? Her use of references and assumptions are bogus
Russia didn't start a war with Ukraine! We know that Ukraine is rich in resources important for America (not just Russia) . Simple people are not really stupid, we read search for real information.
Sending tanks into a country and hurtling missiles at their cities is what started this war. If America wanted Ukraine's resources (nice conspiracy theory) getting Russia to invade would not be the plan.
Democracy blame was not making sense, Don'r place blame of anything just look at solutions. We let this go to long. I have ecologist for many years. First the economy is doomed. So the solution is rural grassroots living

Excellent link, thank you! I've been following Nate Hagens for just a few months now, and am very impressed by his global energy analysis. Jean Marc Jancovici is new to me, but it's hopeful to see he's arrived at the same conclusions and is a well respected intellectual in France.
You “may” be right based on some of your opinions, but your arrogance is difficult for me to take. After a few minutes I find myself wanting, no needing, to find another website where the host isn’t so in love with themselves . I am not sure which I despise the most: your need to obnoxiously rip apart the person with an opposing view, your “ holier than thou” attitude towards the other person, your facial ticks and contortions when you try to show show much smarter you are than the person with a different viewpoint, and lastly as you play with your hair like you are a little 2nd grade girl whose hair just became long enough for a ponytail. It’s a shame, you seem like an intelligent young man. Why don’t you try a little respect and empathy for the other persons viewpoint. Lastly… get a haircut, or at a minimum leave your hair alone
It's a joke to not consider nuclear if we expect the same standard of energy supply.
Not to mention that we will soon need three-times today’s supply
It will be impossible without Nuclear Energy.
It’s ironic that she notes the power play around competition for resources, to creat “clean tech” (which doesn’t really exist) but not the power play and premise that there’s a climate issue to begin with. If there’s no climate issue. Who is using the false flag of climate to gain power and why?
What we really need is put to a halt car dependence and consumerism. Those two are the key drivers of carbonisation of the planet. We really don't need to transfer to a green tech, by putting more stress on earth. What we need is to stop huge fabrics and personal cars. Those two factors would immediately provide us with good outcome. But, there is simply no will on the side of politicians all over the world. As those politicians directly profit from industrial complex and car manufacturers. Simply look how instead of getting rid of personal transportation and car dependency we remove cars with ev's. Without any thought of tomorrow really. We put more stress on the globe today by developing new industries that in their own term will spike CO2 emissions. And perpetuating car dependency and consumerism. Which is the real cause of all problems. Now I'm not an expert. And this is pretty shallow perspective. But somehow very few people address the real issue. And I'm not car hater. I'm devoted driver myself. My car is my food. I'm a taxi driver that absolutely love to drive. And consume. However, if no one addressing the problem, maybe I should.
Removing cars will disproportionately harm the working class who depend on vehicles to get to work, the disabled who need them to get to appointments and family members who need them to help their elderly relatives. Get rid of aircraft (particularly private jets) for everything except delivery of food and goods. No more holidays aborad for the middle and upper classes. One private jet pumps more into the atmosphere per person in one short trip than a car does in a year. Instead of hurting the poor who have no choice, force the rich to stop with the holidays and jetting all over the place for meetings that could be done on Zoom calls. No more green activists doing their thing and then jetting off to Tahiti. They have a CHOICE. The poor do not!
@@socratesrocks1513 there is always a reason. World isn't black and white. Also... People who depend on cars to get to work is product of car dependency. Get rid of airplanes will not resolve the problem. And I agree, holidays abroad is kinda stupid. But it's also how you don't get isolated from the rest of the world. Which is large. Also, your argument about relatives. You won't get rid of million cars, but you would get rid of a single airline that may carry same amount of people, faster, efficiently, convenient, and to a further extent, over the sea, for example. BTW what is "middle class"? Does it even exist today? No. You focused on "please don't take away my car. I don't want any changes". Again. Pretty dull. And as I said. I'm myself rely on my personal car as source of income. And yet I still think, that the solution is ban cars ( not all of course, only private). And stop overproduction, and consumerism. Something that no corporation, no government isn't interesting in. Good point on rich. But you also defending your own position. Ban consumerism, and effectively capitalism, and there will be no rich with private jets. Your opinion, sadly, shaped by same rich people that you hate so much.
I've reached the same conclusion about cars a long time ago. They are far too resource intensive no matter what their power source is. We need to rearrange our economy away from individual car ownership to have a fighting chance of avoiding climate devastation. It's a tall order, but it could have beneficial knock on effects of restoring community independence and values, as a result of focusing people's daily travels to smaller, local circuits. As the other comment notes, limiting air travel should also be part of this strategy.
unfortunately they all conveniently side stepped the main issue which is the increasing cost of extracting these minerals from increasingly lower grade ores this requires mining more ore and crushing it down to 100 microns to extract tiny amounts of the mineral copper is down to 0.1% which means one tonne of ore produces one kilogram of copper and global demand is 28 million tonnes that is a loyt of mining all of which has to be done with diesel machines
Dear climate apologists, Most people would not object to additions and options to existing energy infrastructure. However, the current approach in general is toxic to human society in many ways. First of all, if you talk to people about this subject or anything else, be respectful. Secondly, you cannot change overnight what has been building for more than a century, no matter how frightened you feel. You have got to allow questions and opposing views if any of the climate goals are going to have more support. You cannot treat people like a disease and then wonder why they won't listen to your views. Science has dissenting views on this as on many other topics. So take the foot off the gas and remember how to relate to people. Control only ends up being counterproductive. Try respect, you might find that other people aren't as dumb as you thought. Try conversing, and then understand you can't control others. So if you think oil is bad don't use any. If you think air conditioning is wrong get rid of it. You can be an example instead of looking like a hypocrite. Thanks a lot!
Solar panel and wind farms don,t change CO2 into oxygen only trees and green things do
A basic understanding and commitment to non-leftist economics would make all this drama irrelevant. Every decision is a trade-off. Just have some competent teams run the numbers. Work out the inconsistencies, then start digging.
Odd that a conference discussing how industry should best be used to extract minerals essential to remediating the catastrophic effects of climate change, would not include any industry representatives. It's almost as if the organizers and participants don't want to discover any workable solutions.
How is Blackrock and other financial conglomerates motivated by ESG involved in the failure of the green energy transition? Are they playing both ends against the middle?
