    Heya! First up thanks for all the lovely birthday messages. Honestly social media can be quite isolating at times, especially being stuck inside working through a long edit, so to have lovely comments and know these videos can help people navigate their newsfeeds a bit better really makes that feel worth it. Secondly, and why I arrived here, is to say that if anyone wants to read more about any of these stories/get the sources, I post them alongside every video on my Patreon (free for non-Patreons too). I usually put this in the description of the video but I feel like it's easier to find here maybe? Anyway hope you all have a great week if you're here reading this! www.patreon.com/posts/new-youtube-good-116947921?Link&

      Hi! I've just found your channel, I think it's wonderful that you share good news, it's very needed nowadays.
      I have a request, could you provide a list of those news stories in the descriptions of your videos in the future? Sources would be even better, but just a list is what I need.
      I would like to tell people about it, but I struggle to remember every news you've mentioned in the video. It would help if I had a list to remind myself.

      ​@@Marc42 Yes... if you look at it from the perspective of the climate and the local environment. For a country producing food for three times its population and only having 13% of its landmass covered by forest, it is vital for biodiversity that more forests will be reimbursed from less fertile land (same agreement as the taxes). Also, the taxes will first come into effect in 2030(a few in 2028) so the industry has time to adapt to the new changes. Not to mention that it's a 3-party-agreement where the relevant groups have agreed.

    1:36 While these pod traspots do look really neat, the better solution for congestion like this is almost always to make better public transit. Electrify the fleet, expand service, add express bus lanes, and generally make it a more convenient option to driving, and that gets people out of cars and into more efficient mass transit. single or small capacity pods are cool and all, but they are very inefficient.

    This is the first video I’ve come across of yours and I have to say happy birthday(mine is also this month) and I love what you’re doing here, this was over all very lovely and a nice little bright spot that made my day better. I’d also like to give some feedback that you may want to be a bit more choosy when sharing news about private for profit companies coming up with “solutions” to problems because while over all this video was fantastic the Whoosh private multi directional gondola service is very bad news in my book. To me this sounds like the sort of thing that’s going to promise low prices early on to get their private infrastructure built but once it’s up there will be nothing to stop them from rising prices and creating a literal upper class lower class division in transport and in the early days while prices are cheap it’s going to compete with public transit and maybe even reduce public transit services because of lower ridership which will only hurt the people who need it most. Again over all I think you’re doing good work and the rest of the video was lovely.

    COF-999 requires energy to produce it The material will be carbon negative only if created by carbon neutral energy. Making the 36mg COF itself in the paper involves two flash-freezes in liquid nitrogen to -196C(-321F), 3 days of being heated to 120C (248F), 1 day at 100C (212F), and 12 hours drying at 120C, and various other filterings and dryings and washings at much more sane temperatures.
    It also needs to be heated in order to desorb the CO2 so it can be reused. In the paper they did that at 60C, possibly for 40 minutes though they didn't specify. That's not much different to some existing materials.
    On its least productive day outside, it was absorbing 1.03 mmol of CO2 per gram of COF, with an average of 1.28mmol per gram, which isn't a tremendous amount compared to other materials, but some of those others have to be under high temps or pressures while being used, whereas this doesn't.

      Also, plants use CO2 to grow more CO2 absorption capacity. This COF-999 is only useful in spaceships and other enclosed spaces with plenty of non-carbon based energy.
