- Facts and data alone won’t inspire people to take action in the fight against global warming. So what will?
This is the sixth episode of Climate Lab, a six-part series produced by the University of California in partnership with Vox. Hosted by Emmy-nominated conservation scientist Dr. M. Sanjayan, the videos explore the surprising elements of our lives that contribute to climate change and the groundbreaking work being done to fight back. Featuring conversations with experts, scientists, thought leaders and activists, the series takes what can seem like an overwhelming problem and breaks it down into manageable parts: from clean energy to food waste, religion to smartphones. Sanjayan is an alum of UC Santa Cruz and a Visiting Researcher at UCLA. Taking action on global warming doesn’t stop here.

Jesse Guzman I did and I only have 5 quid
It makes me laugh how many people think there should be a 50/50 debate on climate change
Harvey Donnelly Really? It makes me cry.
Harvey Donnelly Because no matter what you say in science, you need evidence to back it up. You can't just declare something as factual if you don't have the evidence. However, I agree that there's a lot of evidence out there in the field, but as what the video showed us, people don't have access to that information/don't believe it. We need to do a better relaying this message, discussing with people about the harmful effects of human activities, rather than brush them off as ignorant and stupid.
And this is the condescending attitude thats gonna turn people further.
Frosty_Friends Exactly
"people don't have access to that information" No, people can literally find out how to split the atom with their smartphone while they are taking a dump. The problem is stupidity, greed, ignorance and lack of education. None of these will change before the damage is already done.
"people still doubt them", it's literally only americans
TheGoosePenis I would like this if it weren't for your username
TheGoosePenis not true at all, there's two popular Irish politicians who dont believe in it
TheGoosePenis that's a lot of people though
Uhohhotdog Gaming A lot of retarded people
Not all of us Americans, just the Trump supporters.
so basically people are too dumb to listen to experts using facts, and is better if a celebrity explains it from his or her heart... NICE
Lol no stupid is not to question so called "experts". To except so called "expert's" views based on assumptions would be a religious act. To except science without question is wrong and pure laziness. How many experiments have you done to prove humans are the cause of climate change?
Do you know how many things play a factor in the weather? Do you know anything about polar shifts? Do you know how solar flares effect weather? Are you able to bring the moon closer to the earth? Do you know how the moon effects weather? Do you know how many active volcanoes are in the Oceans around the world? Do you know the effect of underwater volcanoes increase land mass and elevated Ocean waters? Have you read studies on the longevity of co2 in the atmosphere? Dis you know this exact sale this was suppose to happen in 1922 according to scientist's? Did you know of the 1816 freeze known as the year of no summer? Did you know co2 only takes up .04 percent or less of the earth's atmosphere? Do you know how accurate C02 measurements are? Do you know the difference between carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide? Do you know which of those gases are naturally occurring? Do you know how or if any of these gases traps heat? Do you known which scientists agree on which gases trap the most heat or which scents don't think they trap heat at all? Do you know the temperatures in the year 10 b.c.? Do you know the temperatures in the Viking era? Do you know how many volcanoes erupted within the past 50 years? Do you know anything about cloud seeding history? Do you know anything about government weather projects around the world? Do you know what a plasma cloud is? Do you know how many times Niagara Falls had frozen over completely and what years? Do you know how many animals roamed the earth in 1500's ? Do you know what gases humans and animals produce? What kind of gases do sea animals and creatures produce? Do you know how many holes are in all layers of atmospheres? Do you know how holes in atmospheres are measured? Do you kmow the effect of planes gasses and weather? Do you know how many satellites are around the earth? Do you know the effect they have on earth's weather? Do you know how many nuclear weapons have been tested in earth's atmosphere? Do you know there effects on weather? Do you know how radio frequencies are being used to change weather? Do you know how sound plays in weather?
Or do you just believe what you political party trolls you at face value? In the realm of science does it make a difference how many agree? Should science be based on assumptions? Do you know anything about Henry's Law? Are you aware that NASA , NOAA, and other government projects need funding? Do you realize money is the motivator for the push of regulations and control? Do you know what happens when more freedoms are taken away? Do you believe with the amount of regulations today in the United States that the Wright Brothers would have ever developed the plane?
Did you know the reason why United States is in so much trouble is due to 4 things. Marxist law's, Bank's providing loans or any loans, 2 tax laws (land tax and payroll tax), the push to devalue moral values? Did you know the The United States Constitution, the Declaration of Independence, the Bill of Rights, the Federalist Paper's , the Anti- federalist papers, the book mentioned in 1st article of Constitution , and the book Mentioned in Declaration of Independence were meant for all American citizens to study so we could not be decieved? Did you know we have a type government or had a type of government named Republic or the Constitutional Republic? Do you know the difference between the Constitutional Republic and a democracy ?
Did you know that as more regulations of force that are placed the less freedom, liberty, pursuit of happiness, and less choices people have? Do you know communism, totalitarianism, socialism, fascism, support a form of slavery? Are you against slavery? Are you against government servitude? Are you against freedom?
Stupid people do not question but do as they are told without question. Stupid people allow Hollywood, media, and science to dictate how they should think. You will conform and you will obey as some many other puppets like you. Women by nature find comfort in socialism and communism for 2 reasons 1st they don't have to stay in shape or be healthy 2nd they don't have to work on family relationship and a 3rd could be fear of men.
These subjects questioned relate in many ways the main way is control. The control over people just like the master's of the cotton fields controlling the slaves in 1800's wether they be white or black master's in those years. So very is the the real topic as is world government. Natural human rights are being taken away due to fear. Slavery in Africa has never stopped. Slavery in the form of sex trafficking and government servitude still exists. United States has less freedom than it had in 1911. Fear rules this land and creates new laws to comfort the fearful.
Lastly nobody is saying to trash the environment or abuse environment. What people are saying is question and don't take away my freedom. I would challenge you to question how the oil companies became so powerful to begin with and start your research before the "Great Depression". How great would it have been if people were able to fuel vehicles via home created alcohol? How has government effected farm land? How has government effected metal companies? Capitalism doesn't exist if Marxist law's are placed to stop the function of capitalism. Innovation is not what it could be due to Marxists. There is no more of the great inventors they have all been shut out due to fear of having to struggle or to do the difficult actions.
When a society prospers it forgets and becomes corrupt. They forget what freedom felt like they forget what it feels like to overcome obstacles. They forget what it feels like to be able to work unified but as individuals. We live in a time when more of what was good is becoming bad and more of what was bad is becoming good. Pride is increasing as is greed, and hate. 3 things I have noticed in last few decades. Less people practicing heartfelt charity depending more on government paid programs. More people spending time at work or in front of a screen instead of developing and nurturing healthy relationships. Increased division in the United States due to emotional based laws vs rational law's and lack of desire to want to truly understand.
@@nobodyisprfct Didn't read your whole textbook you've wrote but it isn't about people not questioning experts, it's about experts being able to provide answears to *all* of the peoples questions with *concrete evidence*

@@andresgagge6977 Good! Then you should then easily recognize my reply is a simple page worth of info or less. Not a 1000 page plus text book reply. I sure you were being sarcastic. Fact is questions need to be asked to get full spectrum of info. Of course college doesn't allow to much outside the box thinking. Later best of luck to your future debt.
Completely agreed not every scientist is the best at communicating his work
but seriously "BULLY' people ?
WTF ? theyre too scared to listen
Connor Key what Nooo. he has a bit of sass but isn't hindering progress. it's just his way of putting science, you may not like him, but there are many others who can communicate science to the T. Have varied reliable sources, to make sure they're saying the same thing, rather then just relly on 'Bill Nye's condescending nature'
Not scared - it's a choice to bluster due to lack of proof that can be easily demonstrated. The computer calculations still fall under G.I.G.O. Garbage In = Garbage Out....but they make a somewhat baffling production if you don't pay attention that proof is so impossible that disproof is claimed to be needed. Nope. Guesstimating is still noise.
Kris Silveira - I think this is a claim particularly from religious Conservatives and much of it emanates from groups like Fox News who try to purposely incite anger in this population.
Such groups seek to drive a deeper wedge by taking talking points, marrying them into political positions and then telling people that "this other side" is against you, is elitist, thinks you are stupid and is trying to take away your rights and persecute you.
Hence, the message to religious Conservatives becomes, "Those evil, lying liberals & science believers are against God and His followers. They are trying to force their agenda on you and bully you into making this country an atheist nation. But as God's people, we must stand against them and their evil ways!"
So the morality of the issue had changed in Christian circles from "stewardship of God's creation" to "standing against non-believers who want to take away our civil liberties." Climate change is rolled into that that mess and has been hard to de-tangle with certain faith communities.
As such, even the mention of a hot button issue puts hackles up, erects barriers and draws lines of combat. People have been told that they are under attack, so they are already on the defense.
What doesn't help is when those who adhere to the sciences become snarky, contemptuous and project superior attitudes. It feeds right into that narrative of persecution and attack by "elitists," confirming their feelings of persecution and attack. And the divide further deepens.
I have watched this interaction for years between the two groups and it deeply saddens me, especially because we don't have time to bicker and argue about it. Climate change doesn't stall while we play tug of war.
Hope this helps provide some understanding behind that claim of "bullying."
All the best to you.
Yeah, that presenter should be sacked... :') Though I think that the scientists need to be trained to talk about climate change and shut down idiotic debaters (and lol, I've carried out research personally, and I know I would be so freaking huffy if someone doubted my research with no given reason). ;)
obviously, by fox news logic, doing your job means bullying people.
"Just by switching the messenger from a scientist to a religious figure, people listened". This is what's wrong with society.
Agreed.
DeshaunIsAmazing well it worked didn't it?
Naija What does that have to do with the underlying problem? You have scientist that worked for decades with research spanning centuries on climate change yet the society only accepts knowledge when it comes from the mouth of religious figures (who live their lives based on the intelligence and scriptures of societies thousands of years in the past). This doesn't just apply to climate change but a host of other scientific fields where scientist for years have been trying to warn society with data and reason and the bulk of society doesn't take action until a religious leader sitting in a palace with a disco stick and pompus queen hat says it's important now and we should care because.....Jesus.
Naija In other words, we shouldn't wonder why our society has problems when scientist have researched and developed solutions for our actions, yet the bulk of society wants to ignore it until their favorite religious influencer says it's okay.
DeshaunIsAmazing //shrug
There is certainly no denying that scientists have performed years of research and testing to arrive at this conclusion that global warming is a growing threat. And since it is a problem that involves all of us, they understand that the next step is to tell the public. But that is where human psychology comes into play, because the fact of it is that, unless you're already a forward thinking member of the scientific community you likely wounldnt care much if some random Dr Z. Phill (idk random name here) who not much people have heard about anyways came out and tried to persuade you to take action about global warming. Whereas with a world renounced figure like the Pope, or any well known religious figure in fact, there would be a very different result because the Pope has, in a way, a "relationship" already established with 1 billion people, you see? And so it would be easier to want to listen to someone with that influence in your life.
And it doesn't have to be a religious figure. Hell, I bet if Beyonce came out about how climate change was a problem, you better believe people would follow her steps. The key point is an influential well known figure.
I think what makes scientists so forward thinking is the fact that they really don't care about the credit. Whatever method works in spreading the message of this urgent issue, they'll take. I really don't think this is an issue of religious people being "too blind to care about science". It's simply a matter of psychology. If you trust, like and are familiar with somebody, you are more likely to listen to their word, and that's the psychology that was in effect with the Pope's message.
why is climate change even a thing thats being questioned?
Money
Jordan Levitt Why do people still believe in a god?
I dont know but they all look dumb to me. Whatever, earths still gonna be here after were all dead.
Cognitive dissonance. When people are confronted with opinions and facts that oppose their way of thinking, their brain 'misfires' and won't remember it.
Look up Wikipedia with cognitive dissonance for a better explanation.
Everything should be questioned
Makeoke _ 💯 someone with a Brian. glad individual thinking is still a thing.
I really like this guy. The videos with him have been a joy
Jake Doran he's very charismatic and you can tell he loves his craft
Yeah definitely a really great series!

@Artur Markowski Not everyone has enough land to grow 100% of their food
@Lee Ruan What do you mean
@@force1535 some one deleted a comment so it makes no sense
@Artur Markowski That's not what is said at all.
This is not going to be a popular message, but we must bring our food into the discussion. The meat and dairy industries are some of the biggest contributors to greenhouse gasses. We have to stop growing food to feed animals, and eat the grains ourselves. It is a terribly inefficient way to produce food. Just my two cents.
We need to grow food using electric equipment powered by renewable energy. Then feed that food to the farm animals.
@@icwiz you'll still have to use renewable energy efficiently because it will still be in limited supply.
@@gernottiefenbrunner172 thats the downside of renewable. We could also grow food and farm animals in space habitats.
Also if we are providing only plant protein, that would increase the need for cultivated land. Humans don't process plants as well as a cow does.
this opinion should go viral !! preach
@@icwiz yes a cow processes plants better than a human but it needs much, much more of it. Less plants required if people eat them directly rather than convert them into cow.
Until people's day-to-day changes then they won't believe it, ignorance is truly bliss
MOOD FM : MF DOOM
What?
Well, they did believe the ozone hole and we almost eliminated the CFCs. As a result it seems that the ozone layer will regenerate back in this century. So this is not only a problem o ignorance and not seeing day-to-day change. Worse persuasion is one of the issues too.
Lycaon 1765p it isn't really tangible as climate is results over a time period so there is no human scale to it so a certain degree of faith is needed in the results for people to accept it
TheBlobik true but how much of that was due to government initiatives, if CFCs were still available in the shops I doubt consumers would've been too mithered tbh
Very true, the only problem is that by the time a lot of people (because some people already are) are going to notice climate change effects in their day to day lives, we will already have gone way over the tipping point and it will be too late to change it back in any significant way. We're on an exponential curve and we're coming closer and closer to the point where it goes way up.
Interesting. As a scientist, I will try to remember this when I discuss this topic in the future.
niiidar You're a scientist?
?
Sir I remember when as a child growing up in the 1950s that once or twice a year Southern Baptist preachers would give a sermon on been a good steward of not only your time, money but of the Earth because it is God's world and not our own, we have responsibility for what we do to and with the earth. Sadly this has been forgotten, perhaps you will remember that and use it as well. peace.
Delgen1951 - Yes. In the 90's & early 2000's, the idea of "creation care" was the phrase used. Stewardship was a key theme.
Sadly, manufacturing & big oil spun a different narrative. As they challenged the science, they lumped it into arguments on evolution and origin of the planet and species. This dismantled a good deal of trust in the scientific community and conservatives began calling climate change "junk science." It's awful what occurred.
Thankfully, a number of folks do see through this (as per the video) & positives steps to turn it around are being made.
Better yet, consider joining the Citizen's Climate Lobby. It's a grassroots lobbying group which encourages representatives to charge CO2 polluters and give the proceeds to every household, the same way oil companies pay every Alaskan for the right to use their state's land.
Terrible title that gives people the wrong idea. They are the best champions - DUH, they aren't the best spokespeople
Chih exactly.
Chih agreed
Chih to champion a cause is to speak for it.
Chih I clicked thinking they would be taking a piss on scientists too. 😖
Its called click bait.
4:39 while I no doubt disagree w/ this woman on many issues if she's a founder of the Tea Party, I can appreciate that she holds fast to her ideology and morals without it being at the expense of the environment.
Unrelated but which accent is she speaking in?
@@Lundy.Fastnet.Irish_Sea Southeastern US. Specifically she's from Georgia, I believe.
ya just at the expense of poor people
@Matthew Hutchinson advocating for getting rid of minimum wage, public education and healthcare, among just a few things this woman has advocated for.
@Ryan Ramos they claim to think overreaching government is /the/ problem in society, yet celebrate privately and bend over backward defending publicly whenever a lawless government agent murders someone; it's 'almost' as if they didn't actually believe the things they say.
I love this video because it shows that climate change is widely accepted by so many different people around the world regardless of politics, religion, or race
Just because its accepted by a lot of people doesn't make it real.
Well Robert, what makes you say that?
There was a time when it was widely accepted the earth was flat.
There was a time when it was widely accepted the earth was the center of the universe.
There was a time when it was widely accepted that ulcers was caused by eating the wrong food, until it was proven to be caused by a virus.
Through out history there have been tons of things that were widely accepted that were not even close to the truth.
The truth is, there is no difference between what the climate has done for the last century than any other time in history and we did not cause the change then.
Actually that was TWO millennials ago. The point is before those guys, it was accepted that the earth was flat.
Your first two claims were made a time before modern science and were disproved by the scientific method.
No! I don't want this series to end!!! I've really been enjoying it and have looked forward to each episode. Very well done.
tin snips & scissors +
Large Vessel, "very well done," meaning that I enjoyed it. We're all entitled to our opinions, thank you very much for yours, but I'd rather not be called names by someone who A) doesn't know me, and B) clearly has some sort of anger/control issue. Find someone else to troll.

superman superman, I'm not sure of what you mean by my "agreement with TH-cam."
I'm also confused as to why people seem to be offended by my enjoyment of a series of videos...
"I'm also confused as to why people seem to be offended by my enjoyment of a series of videos..."
It's part of the notion that everyone that disagrees with them is literally paid to do so (implying that there's somehow a way to get money from YT by making comments). This sort of conspiracy-hungry lunacy is pretty common in the comments on Vox videos. According to various conspiracies I am paid by: Hillary Clinton, The Clinton Foundation, George Soros, the Democratic party - I am an independent - and so on for not liking Trump and for agreeing with climatologists about climate science.
There's no way to get through to such blatant conspiracy theorists. I wish there were, but any attempt at a reasoned discourse will simply be met with more slander about how you're paid to work for the 'evil liberal globalist' of the month in order to avoid thinking about anything you have to say.
I think that's why Carl Sagan was so important and rare
Dipthong he was a heavy marijuana advocate as well
Hehe. Of course
Jack LaBarge You're point? marijuana extract is legitimate drug and has been proven to ease Parkinson's disease and prevent seizures from those who suffer from epilepsy, why wouldn't anyone advocate marijuana?
That's the key get scientists on weed keep it real, rather than them just pandering to the people who give them money.
While there is nothing wrong with the video, I really cringe at the idea that it's scientists' responsibility to entertain people and convince them of the current state of the art science, rather than it is peoples' responsibility to get the wisdom from knowledgeable people, however boring or unpleasant or whatever they might be. "Sorry sir, your facts on the height of this bridge and unsuitable structural integrity of my body are too boring, please step a side and let me do my fun thing".
Libertarian conservative here. I think climate change and pollution is a big problem and needs to stop. I like how Vox had no bias in this video - they could have easily said "conservatives are wrong" but instead correctly pointed at incorrect sources. Well done!
This video is super biased lol, its basically saying in an undertone way: People who dont believe in climate change are stupid
well, maybe they're not wrong

My ancestral home in India is in a remote mountainous area and uses solar. This is a place where monsoons blanket the sky for three months at a time and where the mountains rob the panels of sunlight an extra 2 hours each day. And yet my folks rarely need to power their house from the grid and usually they overflow their batteries and have to dump the excess into the grid. If it can be done in the worst and most remote conditions, it can be done in the west.
Why isn't science enough? Well, there was an incident awhile back in college that I was roommating with a couple of kids. I raised a concern about how we should recycle our plastic water bottles and they unanimously said that they didn't see how a person recycled some plastics could make that much of a difference. That is the reason. Ppl generally don't think that one person's (out of 7 billions) littering a piece of garbage thrown out to the highway would matter.
I agree -- but I was wondering the other day if discarded plastic is actually a big deal. It takes an estimated 50,000 years to decompose, but within a few decades won't we have invented some sort of centipede-like robot that can burrow into landfills or ditches to detect and retrieve plastic and other materials that don't belong there? I've been hoping to get people's thoughts on this. (Of course, none of it is an excuse to litter.)
Coolidge Dollar You can only be a drop in the bucket, no matter what you do. It takes that supreme leap of faith: to DARE to be a drop in the bucket. The problems are solved by little pieces who come together to form something larger!
That's why you need policies to change behavior. I'm not a big tree hugger myself precisely because my actions don't make a huge difference, but I will definitely support legislation that encourages such behavior.
Unfortunately in the US, this isn't the main problem. The main problem is that a sizable proportion of the population believes that recycling is a hoax invented by the Chinese.
bball Social engineering while trying to use coercion and government policies to make people change their habits is unethical. There is little incentive for people to recycle because people get nothing out of it.
infinitude I agree this is true but even if everybody recycled, its just no enough... We need more but nobody says anything feasible on the person to person level... Corporations must be forced to change to make a dent.
seriously its a USA problem. Speaking as a european, we have no problem with science
ha oh you being serious
red afro meeeh we have some problems but we are definately more openminded towards science
delver86 didn't Italy jail scientists a few years ago because they didn't accurately predict the extent of an earthquake?
Robert Lott never heard of that but i will take your word for it,still,i believe from what i have seen that people in europe are more accepting of science than usa.
www.scientificamerican.com/article/italian-scientists-get/ It was pretty insane, but i do agree in general they're more accepting, I just wouldn't want to ever be a scientist in Italy
Frame the argument around air and water pollution, cheaper energy, and wildlife conservation (things everyone cares a great deal about). Stop talking about "climate change", because it sounds like a problem coming 50 to 100 years from now.
Xaro Xhoan Daxos the sad thing is people have done that and it still hasn't worked.
Xaro Xhoan Daxos Vox already made a video on how to debate a republican on climate science
Xaro Xhoan Daxos it could be in your lifetime so watch out
In 50 to 100 years from now, everyone is going to forget about it when people realize there are more important things to worry about.
Taxing energy will not make it cheaper. Water pollution is so ignored that the SourceWatch resource on coal ash piles of radioactive toxic waste by waterways ( from acid rain exhaust stack scrubbers ) is seldom mentioned, as is pollution from CAFOs ( feedlots ) overloading waterways with cow patties. The Nitrogen Cycle is unbalanced with fertilizers loading waterways with toxic algae blooms - causing dead zones in the oceans and lakes. Climate change is coming - it always has. There is just no useful way to know what and how much on a planet where meteorological forecasts break down in a week. Climate forecasts ..... who knows. They don't make any that come due ! That's like the old joke you will know if your faith is real after you are dead....when it's too late to make changes.

He's also a head of state
At least he get the message
It's all about the money. You can't trust listening to big money interests. Who put themselves first. Coal and gas industries
What about Solar Panel industry's, won't they lie? What about wind industries? won't they lie? What about politicians hoping to increase spending with a carbon tax, won't they lie? You,re right, it is all about the money, but you're not looking at the big picture.

lavajolt like the reefs they too should be rubbed out
I don't believe it because I do my own research, well climate change is real but its been there since we had an atmosphere however global warming isn't as bad as you think and actually has some positives to it. Also no the earth isn't warming faster than 100 years ago, it is basically still the same rate and eventually it will get colder again so chill out.
Joop wow I would rather listen to the scientist then ass trolls
Im a physicist. I can attest that most of my people are not great communicators. We need more Carl Sagans.
This is the first time I've agreed with someone from the tea party.
In the US, people listen more to politicians than experts.
The media makes more money with politicians.

Climate change is real. And if you are someone who lives in the Midwest like me. The past 3 or 4 years. It hasn't snowed in the winter lately. And some people see this as something dumb. But it's 75 degrees in the the Midwest in winter isn't normal at all.
Al F in elementary 1999 i remember there was a foot of snow winter was long ...in middle school there was about 5inches of snow and winter was short ...high school there was 1 inch to no snow at all and winter didnt last long
i told ppl the changes i had experience and they all said i was being sarcastic
now winter is not even a month figure that out 🤔
and im from Tx
now they are sad theres no snow
Sarie Natt man where I live we had colder winters
Sarie Natt climate is based of weather over a long period time? And weather has been warmer throughout the Midwest for a few years. So I really don't under stand how I'm confused with weather with climate, if I'm talking about the Midwest region(or climate).
Joshua Fletcher wait for all the ice caps to melt and you will have a beach front in no time.
Al F I have seen it too. I I've in Missouri and the winters aren't even winters anymore. one time it was almost 80 degrees.

What kind of conservative doesn't like monopolies? Everything they do serves to strengthen monopolies.
15th Century: If the Earth is round, then explain this! *Holds up ruler to ground*
17th Century: If gravity is real, then explain that! *Points to flying bird*
19th Century: If evolution is real, then explain this! *Holds up bible*
21st Century: If global warming is real, explain that! *Points to snowflake*
Me: *Sigh, then whack them with the ruler, slap them with the bird, shred the book to pieces, and fly them to Bangladesh and lock them in their overflowing house.*
Taylor Lipson snow isn't the reason people are skeptical of global warming. They're skeptical because activists can't even keep terms straight between global warming and climate change. Instead of presenting evidence people use appeals to authority like the 97% figure (which is false) or they use tactics like yours and accuse climate skeptics of being flat earthers
just aburner Yes I agree with you. It’s just a meme that I thought was funny
Yes, "97% of scientists believe" is false.
It's actually " *98% of Peer reviewed DATA concludes* ... while the other 2% of data contradicts itself " ... which is quite different.
Here's every single goddamn paper since 1991 if you wanna check:
iopscience.iop.org/1748-9326/8/2/024024/media/erl460291datafile.txt
HVallejo B. Your study picked 4000 out 12,000 papers and said all of them agreed with global warming. 97% of that 4000 did not take positions to justify the alarmist outrage. They didn't take any unified position at all actually. That in addition to the fact that the study left out 8000 papers that actually did (despite the lies) take a position against agw.
HVallejo B. I also seriously doubt you ready any of those papers you linked
I'll be entering college in the fall majoring in Environmental Science. I've been struggling to determine just how I can make the largest impact with regards to climate change. Thank you for this video for teaching me when to step aside and hear others speak!
Not everyone has to become a scientist but everyone should understand why science is important.
That scientist who spoke to the pope, what a beautiful man :) this is awesome!
I may disagree with Debbie Dooley on virtually every issue. However I could not agree with her more when it comes to protecting the environment and getting away from fossil fuels. I hope she changes the minds of her fellow conservatives.
The environment loves co2 it makes thing grow.
Americans are the epitome of the Dunning-Kruger effect
What I learnt: Put "FREEDOM" in any cause and you got yourself Americans behind you.
Dr. M. Sanjayan i believe your making a difference.
That's my reason for being semi-conservative and still believing that we need to care for the planet. We need to be good stewards of what we have.
This subject always rankles me because I have always considered putting your emotions before evidence to be deeply amoral.
Hi there Mr. or Mrs. Minority. 👋
This feels like a ted talk incoming. :D
In other words, if you want to make people understand, you need someone who is a people person and says something universally compelling.
I would pay good money to have Dr. Sanjayan read a dictionary to me in that smooth voice.
Americans* still doubt them
When you are too privileged , living a luxurious life. You have the time and energy to challenge things which are proven true. Go live in some of the third world countries where these things affect their daily lives and then tell me do you still deny climate change.
I have lived in many places and I can say what you say is bullshit
Joop
Sir I have also visited many countries and what I said was based on that. Please describe your experience and feelings. I will surely do the appropriate changes in the comments.
tesla192000 Living in a hut or a palace does not affect climate change. CLIMATE CHANGE IS A HOAX MADE UP BY AL GORE WHILE FLYING IN HIS PRIVATE JET GOING TO HIS LINCOLN GAS HOG TO GET MONEY DONATIONS FROM
Thomas D Harrell Hoax or no Hoax I respect your opinion but I also believe that you will continue to do the right thing which is to protect the resources of our mother earth not due to climate change but due to a general sense of goodwill. Have a great evening.
That's so true. My parents are farmers in South America and in the past few years, their yield has dropped terribly because the climate has become unpredictable. And yes, I mean climate, not weather: in the past, they knew which seasons to start planting and harvesting, but now they are planting earlier to prevent losses and still losing product. This year they lost around 50% of the production because the spring is too hot :(
I feel like every Vox video I watch I see comments like "so America-centric smh"
Meanwhile the first line on Vox's Wikipedia page "Vox is an American News and Opinion website.
Weird, isn't it.
I don't expect BBC News to be directed towards me, as an American citizen.
Hell, in these climate lab videos in particular, they're based on info from people employed by a university in California. You know, in America. And regardless, the information doesn't suddenly become inaccurate when you cross a border line. So its a non-issue?
I don't have a huge audience, but I do have a few hundred people read my articles daily, sometimes thousands. This video really spoke to me, and it's inspired me to write about how different video game consoles consume energy and how it can be reduced. :)
I love Dr. Sanjayan! he's doesn't condescend or pander like Carlos Maza.
Wording is key while speaking on climate change. Climate change is undeniable, now whether or not it's due to humans is the key question. That's the argument, whether it's man made or not, not whether it's real or fake.
7:40 how is the guy writing backwards so well
He's actually right-handed and it looks normal to him, in the original video, from the point of view of the camera it looks backwards. Then a mirror operation is done on every frame in the video.
There's a video out there that shows how, with a view of all of the surroundings, I couldn't find it. Keyword lightboard
Can you do an explainer on why solar is so cheap now, and the practices of the Chinese solar manufacturers. It seems like the only reason solar is cheap right now is because of how cheap dirty energy in China is, which is used to manufacture solar panels. That seems paradoxical and unsustainable in itself.
Excellent point, I would like to know as well
this is why people should be well versed in science and reading data and scientific journals
I think it speaks volumes about us as a society, if we choose to listen to popular figures and not climate scientists. If we gain our information from short infomercials and not by reading up on the important literature that is available to us and assessing it critically.
I'm still hiding in my garage with a handgun and camping stove awaiting the Y2K disaster.
has Y2K started ? Climate change has been going on for more than 100 years
Faced with a challenge, a bet and we turn it away and deny cause we're lazy and want cheap, dirty energy for short term gain.
I still would listen to scientists
Rather than from religious leaders and politicians
I'm not sure how long these videos take to produce, but I hope they never stop. These are really wonderful
I still find it hard to believe that people don't believe in global warming.
My world geography teach was so shocked by people who don't believe in global warming,
The he designated a few days next year to cover global warming, and prove that it is real.
What a great guy.
So, be careful you don't confuse lack of adherence with ignorance. a lot of folks on the right don't necessarily doubt the science but really do not like the proposed solutions. An alternative approach is market driven solutions, kind if like how Tesla came from essentially nowhere to dominate the perception of EVs and make them "cool". Tesla's impact on the industry will be huge beyond their own car sales. They weren't driven by mandates, although the subsidies helped those subsidies are actually pretty cheap compared to a lot of other "solutions"
All this stems from a miscommunication among advocates of climate change and people dubbed "deniers". Instead of assuming a position of contempt both sides should really sit down and work out the disagreements.
Except the deniers don't have rational disagreements, so you can't interact with them with reason
Mandragara honestly
Mandragara "am i wrong and not open to dicussion? nope, nothing to do with me everyone who disagrees with me is just a poop throwing neanderthal" -mandradara
brad garza There's mountains of evidence supporting climate change. Climate change deniers refuse to accept evidence. What's there to discuss?
The deniers are influenced by people who benefit from polluting the environment
As a communications expert communicating on complex policy and scientific issues, I can cite examples when scientists have been and can be effective communicators. I think part of this has to do with creating a strategic narrative and deploying their expertise in a way that is effective with a given audience at the appropriate time. You clearly give a good example of this. I think a lot of this also has to do with the individual scientists. There are some scientists who are exceptionally effective communicators and know how to engage their audiences. Lucy Jones is someone who comes to mind i a great example, and I know that Vox recently featured a video with her explaining earthquakes and geology!
"Those were the best scientific moments of my life." So beautiful!
The sad truth is that most people can't accept the sad truth unless you make it fun, interesting, relevant, and easy for them to do so.
Scientists don't need to explain issue in words that most people didn't comprehend, rather express it to the way it relates to their understanding and point of view.
it's honestly sad how true this is. I mean if countless of scientists who put research into their work and know what's going on, people should listen to what they say needs to be done. It's not something to "believe" in. It's fact.
Because uneducated and stubborn Trump it's become political thing so if you are blind Trump supporter what can you do.
I hope I can be a messenger to my school, because our generation must become good role models.
I learned in marketing, that true persuasion happens when you balance LOGIC with EMOTION.
Scientifists are often caught up in the logic, of course, it's their job
Tree-huggers are stereotyped for emotion.
The secret is clearly a balance :)
Great video.
I hope this isn't the last Climate Lab video we see. These are excellent!
This guy is pretty awesome. You can tell he's very enthusiastic about the topic of each of his videos that he's done so far, and is charismatic on top of that. Definitely, one of the best hosts Vox has to offer, if not the best.
Fantastic job VOX! Very informative, straight to the point and fact based, which shows completely opposing viewpoints being responsible/ understanding towards to science and making actions to reflect their new knowledge instead of being cemented in their mindsets.
As a Republican I support going green and getting our energy from a more sustainable and cleaner source. The way I promote the idea is by practicing it in my daily life and telling my friends about it. I cant make them change but I can show them what it looks like and make it popular and show them its more beneficial.
Okay straight up, we don't need to start accounting for people's ignorance by inventing new methods of conveying data. Most of us realised the inherent accessibility of information with the internet, and it's honestly not that difficult to convince yourself about climate change. It's so self evident at this point
“People don’t care how much you know till they know how much you care”
It's very hypocritical when somebody that usually does not search any evidences of their beliefs just get skeptical about climate change. It's something good to see people questioning about everything, not just what they thinks is wrong. It's also arrogance the fact that people just see the problem from their sides, go search about this, trying to understand something is crucial for a debate. Climate change is something that affects everybody, and it's something that should have more attention.
Why would anyone not trust a scientist or trust a poupe over a scientist?
Maybe you could make a single video tackling the following questions in sequence, focusing primarily on the last question:
1. Is the planet warming?
2. If the planet is warming, is human activity (like carbon dioxide emissions) causing it?
3. If the planet is warming, and we’re causing it, is that bad overall?
4. If the planet is warming, we’re causing it, and that’s bad, would the policies commonly advocated (e.g., the Kyoto Protocol, legislative restrictions on carbon dioxide emissions) make any difference?
A local weatherman taught the Weather merit badge at an official council event and told the boys that scientists aren't sure if the climate is warming or cooling. I was flabbergasted.
Humanity truly is lost when facts don’t matter...
All I'm hearing is that "We need a cheerleader" to save the world. Save the cheerleader, save the world. - Heroes
I am a physicist. I've been to debates on solutions to climate change and one thing is clear- energy required to make solar panel and polution caused by the process means that renewables are a "no go".
Only technology that we have today, which produces cheap, clean sustainable energy (apart from hydro) is nuclear fission.
Tl;dr Renewables don't solve climate change, only nuclear does.
This is absolutely a problem not a solution. It is ludicrous that the general public took the words of a religious figure more seriously than that of a scientists who has dedicated their life to gaining knowledge on the very subject being discussed. The problem is those who live a life on the basis of "ignorance is bliss," not scientists providing information in a way that isn't tailored to each and every communities predetermined views. The problem is that scientists aren't a respected messenger in every community, not that scientists don't cater to every community.
This guy does his homework. Cheers on not throwing all conservatives into one group.
Yes, messengers are extremely important to spread awareness about this topic, but I believe that this isn't enough. People will simply keep on living the way they do and perhaps emit slightly less. The main drive to change one's habit is through money in this day and age. If there is a cleaner and more importantly a cheaper way to produce energy, people will hop onto the enviromentmovement train, because it will be benificial for them. And of course Rome wasn't built in a day, but I believe that nothing will help this dilemma except for cheaper and cleaner energy.
Holy crap, the Catholic Church speaking in support of science rather than against it. How far have we come since Galileo? Maybe there some hope left in humanity.
Humans are social creatures. We trust the charismatic and we trust the herd that follows them. "if they have that much influence/followers, they must be right"
We have a bit more trouble trusting the shy individual no matter how right and what proof he may have because even if he showed us the proof we wouldn't understand it. In this scenario, critical thinking is a double edged sword.
We measure the success and the trustworthiness by either the following, the money or the convenience. Intelligence is, in the mind of the masses, what must have caused that, but one look at trump and you can easily deny it
Love Sanjayan's videos and way of explaining things!
I don't see how people can't even see this in the weather. The last three years in my area have been abysmal for snow, and the extremes in temperature are changing faster, taking a day not a week.
TBH, I also think one of the major problems is that people've been taught to think of environmentally sustainable policies as economically deleterious; with such things as them being scapegoated as a reason for working class jobs going away and those "ethical consumption" or "sustainable" options that are usually not only crappier/more time consuming than the "polluting" alternative but also more expensive to boot; associating environmental sustainability with austerity.
So, I think one of the most vital things we can do is to break the false economy/environment dichotomy and actually have the huevos for once to put the burden on the people at the top of the corporate ladder to pay for/fix it; rather than putting the burden on individuals where they're less likely to be able to help in the grand scheme of things...
THIS is why people like Elon Musk and Neil deGrasse Tyson are so interesting. It's not like their the smartest people in the world. They just take things that are important and get people engaged and excited about them. They don't bore people, and they take complex things and explain them in ways that you can understand and would care about.
I do not understand people who dislike this video.
"The problem is you have people who are very, very smart when it comes to reading data, but they're dumb when it comes to dealing with people."
That's where engineers comes in, you're sure not gonna get far in the industry if you can't put your words into a nutshell. Your boss might not be able to speak technology.
Good point.
Hence Proved. Faith is more powerful than facts!
Interestingly, as a computer scientist, I find only the highest respect from Americans as a scientist. But then, I don't try to act like an expert on subjects outside my area. When asked, I always say "Well, this is what I believe and why." People tend to listen. I guess part of the problem is that often enough we find scientists who have falsified data to support their hypotheses (like on both sides of the climate debate) that people are naturally suspicious. When you get enough conflicting claims from "scientists", you tend to stop believing ANY of it...it becomes background noise.
This is impressive. I had not thought of someone like the Pope getting through to people on climate change. There is Debbie Dooley again. I love how she advocates taking partisan politics out of thinking about the environment. Culture Strike seems a genius idea. This could also be used as a model to advocate for economic change.
Remember the quote
Talent gets known
But
Genius gets repelled
This is my favorite type of video here on Vox, please continue making them!
I believe in climate change but I'm starting to get fed up with the fight being taken to the people. I'm not causing significant climate change, my carbon output is nothing compared to corporations.
Changing the habits of everyday people will do nothing. You need to change the industries and practices of factories, manufacturers, etc.
"Scientists are not as influential as the pope and politicians"
Wooooow Vox! That had never passed through my mind! Well done!
....
That's irony, irony. I'm just clarifying cause, apparently, you value obvious stuff so much.
