Hey there, thank you for watching :) I've really missed making videos consistently so I'm very happy to be back. I'm sure this year has had so many ups and downs for all of you as well so I hope to share some positivity through these stories I've captured. This is the first one out of my trip and I've got plenty more coming your way. Let me know what you think in the comments and I'll see you again soon
How much persuading would it take to fly me out to join you for part of your travels 😂... I NEED ADVENTURE and miss travelling so so much! I'm ready for a challenge!
@@Crackerbarrelkid55_ yeah it was an ecological disaster. Also about going to another rock: how come we could transform a very hostile planet to make it hospitable instead of fixing our own?
Hahaha that sounds like an interesting matter of priorities 😂 btw, if you’re interested I also have a channel with vlogs from London and other places . Feel free to check it out ❤️🙌🏻
I have so many questions though. Ecological and economic concerns. Did the construction of the islands drive away marine life? Where did the brought-in sand come from and what methods did they use to make sure that the original place of the sand didn’t suffer any ecological disaster? Have they lost any money due to the slow buying process of the islands? etc. etc.
No to be a downer but to answer your questions: "Did the construction of the islands drive away marine life?" Yes "Where did the brought-in sand come from" The bottom of the ocean, destroying numerous marine habitats in the process. "what methods did they use to make sure that the original place of the sand didn’t suffer any ecological disaster?" Essentially none as far as I can tell.
They dredge the sand to create the island. Aka they take it from the sea floor and essentially pile it up into an island. The ship at 3:22 is doing this. It’s definitely bad for marine life
Yeah I live in the uae and that’s very common. A lot of the Emiratis are exposed to British and American culture in their childhood right away and that’s what it results in lol
As an Emirati mostly all schools teach English/French or both, this is mainly because most of our population are expats so it’s mandatory that we speak those or one of those languages.
The building of these islands has a big impact on marine life. The sand is taken from ocean floor, wich gets destroyed in the process, losing countless coral reefs and marine flora. All for what? Its not only unnecesary but really harmful for the environment In my opinion there should be more critical thinking on this kind of stuff (especially if you talk about being mindfull about the environment).

I had a chance to view the islands from the shore as they were being built. Even before viewing them in person I never could understand why anyone would want to live in that location.

would've appreciated a somewhat critical part of this whole project... everything beautiful also has its dark side, particularly in dubai. especially after talking about enivornmental concerns in the beginning of the video...
The problem is that more often than not that pisses people off. Chances are he wouldn't have been invited to that island simply because of the negative vibes that angle would bring to those he talks to in Dubai.
There you go, pretty brutal critique, the engineering part and that the islands will likely end up under water is priceless /watch?v=tJuqe6sre2I&ab_channel=AdamSomething
@definitely a proper username it all depends on your motive. As a journalist your motive is to inform others. You interview someone not to debate them, but get as much interesting positions from that person as possible. That just works better if you don't piss anyone off. You can coat any criticism in the form 'critics often argue that ...' though, but should be careful that that doesn't get to obvious either.
@@dekippiesip "Chances are he wouldn't have been invited to that island simply because of the negative vibes that angle would bring to those he talks to in Dubai." And would that be a bad thing? It's better to not have a video then spread misleading information. And it's not like we have learned anything. They have fancy hotels in Dubai? Wow, who would have guessed!
@@Fragenzeichenplatte it's generally a good thing to not break bridges with people that have the potential to (inadvertently) provide you with additional information. As a journalist you aren't an activist or a debater at a talk show that is lined up against someone with an opposing view. Your job is to extract as much information from the people you interact with as possible. If you look at it from that perspective, that the goal is information extraction rather than convincing someone this totally makes sense.

That would be such a cool idea! You could create some sort of race that switches between run and swim to complete the 300 islands. Sounds pretty intense to me though 🥵😅
@@shama6394 The point is they are still taking steps. It’s like me using more energy efficient light bulbs but driving a diesel truck, you’re still taking steps to help somewhat.
"Organic" uses more water and pesticides that are much more toxic than non-organic pesticides. All that to produce less product. Organic is terrible for the earth.
"We wanted to build something organic": An incredible amount of energy, material, and effort to build some fake islands and then an incredible amount of energy to produce water and cooling so that human beings can live there. This is insane.
dubai loves social media, so of course the moment they found out you're with Yes Theory they'd do anything in their power to do it as right as possible
That‘s what I thought. Of course he gets to stay there overnight with a private villa & pool. The Chairman also knows which buttons to push on that interview for the youtube community. pretty big advertising for your islands. I guess his hole trip was payed by them. Nevertheless cool video and beatiful sceneries. PS: the merchandise advertisement in the beginning looks kinda weird with what is shown after that: pure unncessary luxury & waste of recourses.
Too be honest having the influence of over 6million people doesnt sound like the biggest for youtube however when you compare it to a few countries populations that number is a large amount of publicity
@@chaos6839 exactly, so having someone with the influence of more than an entire country is an amazing deal and they better treat him like a king cos he essentially is one
It's more that they have 'influence' than connections. They offered him to stay because this channel gets millions of views and it will keep people interested in his islands that have potential to possibly lose him a lot of money.

@@oliviacalton8477 he wasn’t saying anything was wrong he was just saying how it’s ironic that he goes to a man made island when he had just said that the brand was gonna be more eco-friendly... no hate, just letting you know. Have a good day :)
Sadly, they’re actually very damaging to the environment. The neighbouring Palm Islands (made by the same developers) were heavily criticised by Greenpeace. Their construction destroyed marine habitats and caused coastal erosion, and the breakwaters created huge sediment build-ups which buried coral reefs as it settled.

I personally don't support this idea. Huge resource is expended in making those islands. It is inconvenient to commute across the water. A $13 billion 'vision' that failed. It is a ignorant rich man's paradise.
Don't let this distract you from the fact that I am the ugliest TH-camr worldwide. I also smell like 100 de*d orangutans and have two hot hot hot girlfriends as you can see on my highly stimulating channel. Greetings, dear abba
I feel very weird about him. Making these islands must have been horrible for the enviroment. I wish the video was a bit more skeptical about that and about Dubai in general
@@yespls6260 That it was just totally unnecessary to build them. There are certain things you need to build for people to make their life safer but you don't need artificial islands. This was just build out if pure greed without any reasonable intent.
Wasn't this concept completely ambiguous? I mean, okay, they can recycle and reuse all the materials - carton, organics, etc., and also the houses are built from environmentally friendly materials like bamboo, but at the same time they have spent enormous amounts of gas by transporting all the materials and especially - sand - to actually build the islands? It would have been 100000 times more sustainable to just build bamboo houses on actually existing islands :D
The big question is, with rising sea levels do they not feel that in 20 years time the islands will be shrinking and potentially gone? Will the islands not move? So many questionsssssss
@@titanxsayed7498 Yea dude that's true. The regions which is on the verge of sinking and in fact the process there has been started is the south-western african coast and the maldives. They even are gonna take more than 30 years to sink completely.

That was their idea, but they only ever completed an island or two for influencers like Yes Theory to show how "successful" they were. The "islands" are just piles of sand that are literally falling back into the ocean since they were first created and still are.
@@urestruly the style and weave work is exactly what you would see in the Philippines. They are buhai weave masters. If it was not them that did it, then they taught or over saw the project. But I doubt it. I'm certain they built it :) but I don't know until I know lol

@@airikk_7051 How much of worlds resources were and are going to be used to build all this? Just because you convert your food waste (there should be no food waste in sustainable environment) into methane gas and cook with it does not offset the millions gallons of fuel oil burned to create these islands.

Would love to see you guys do something regarding the water in a first Nations community here in Canada I haven’t drink clean water on my reservation for 30 years
Maybe you could make a video and link it here. These guys don’t seem to do investigative journalism.
So, so, so very sorry to hear. Peter Santenello might cover that (not sure if he only does America).
Damn wtf, do you buy bottled water or do u drink the bad Tap water?
U must have health issues if u have drank tap water for 30 years that is dirty
@@sophritoh bottle water. But years ago they told us as long as we boiled it which is even worse. So yes health conditions thyroid issues thyroid cancer cousins have brain aneurisms and all kinds of different cancer. Because it’s not even so good to bathe in.
You did good By interviewing the chairman. Seems like a humble man even though he has been so successful in the past. Wish them all the success! This was honest man
would've appreciated a somewhat critical part of this whole project... everything beautiful also has its dark side, particularly in dubai. especially after talking about enivornmental concerns in the beginning of the video...
The problem is that more often than not that pisses people off. Chances are he wouldn't have been invited to that island simply because of the negative vibes that angle would bring to those he talks to in Dubai.
There you go, pretty brutal critique, the engineering part and that the islands will likely end up under water is priceless /watch?v=tJuqe6sre2I&ab_channel=AdamSomething
@definitely a proper username it all depends on your motive. As a journalist your motive is to inform others. You interview someone not to debate them, but get as much interesting positions from that person as possible. That just works better if you don't piss anyone off.
You can coat any criticism in the form 'critics often argue that ...' though, but should be careful that that doesn't get to obvious either.
@@dekippiesip "Chances are he wouldn't have been invited to that island simply because of the negative vibes that angle would bring to those he talks to in Dubai."
And would that be a bad thing? It's better to not have a video then spread misleading information. And it's not like we have learned anything. They have fancy hotels in Dubai? Wow, who would have guessed!
@@Fragenzeichenplatte it's generally a good thing to not break bridges with people that have the potential to (inadvertently) provide you with additional information. As a journalist you aren't an activist or a debater at a talk show that is lined up against someone with an opposing view. Your job is to extract as much information from the people you interact with as possible.
If you look at it from that perspective, that the goal is information extraction rather than convincing someone this totally makes sense.

That‘s what I thought. Of course he gets to stay there overnight with a private villa & pool. The Chairman also knows which buttons to push on that interview for the youtube community. pretty big advertising for your islands. I guess his hole trip was payed by them. Nevertheless cool video and beatiful sceneries.

The islands being eco friendly is actually brilliant
Sadly, they’re actually very damaging to the environment. The neighbouring Palm Islands (made by the same developers) were heavily criticised by Greenpeace. Their construction destroyed marine habitats and caused coastal erosion, and the breakwaters created huge sediment build-ups which buried coral reefs as it settled.
@@rcnhsuailsnyfiue2 Desalination has the potential to increase fossil fuel dependence, increase greenhouse gas emissions, and exacerbate climate change if renewable energy sources are not used for freshwater production. Desalination surface water intakes are a huge threat to marine life.

That was the longest clothing ad I’ve ever seen.
Wasn't this concept completely ambiguous? I mean, okay, they can recycle and reuse all the materials - carton, organics, etc., and also the houses are built from environmentally friendly materials like bamboo, but at the same time they have spent enormous amounts of gas by transporting all the materials and especially - sand - to actually build the islands? It would have been 100000 times more sustainable to just build bamboo houses on actually existing islands :D
yes. this reportage was NOT steeped in 'reality'. d
The big question is, with rising sea levels do they not feel that in 20 years time the islands will be shrinking and potentially gone? Will the islands not move? So many questionsssssss
True!! This is seriously only sustainable for a couple decades at most
There isnt that much rising sea level in the middle east so I’d say 60 years
