RT Bloomberg Live (@BloombergLive)ICYMI: @FortescueNews' Andrew Forrest on President Trump’s denial of climate change at the UN, "Global warming is happening. [Australia is] your strongest Pacific ally. We are living it." #BloombergGreen⏯️ https://t.co/hK1M3Ks33Z https://t.co/tNH10iwD9n ...

Let me ask all of you how are you all fine what a disaster you know with so much of science and technology and economy growing and you're only fine you know the humans modern humans are really not understanding what we wanting and trying to do in this worldce respect behind everything there is only one purpose that is to be happy. So that's why I made a rule wherever I'll go and speak I will only speak to happy people. So with this note let me ask once again how are you all happy very nice and what is the p ...

You know, it used to be global cooling. If you look back years ago in the 1920s and the 1930s, they said global cooling will kill the world. We have to do something.Then they said global warming will kill the world. But then it started getting cooler. So now they could just call it climate change because that way they can't miss.It's climate change because if it goes higher or lower, whatever the hell happens, there's climate change. It's the greatest conj job ever perpetrated on the world in my opinion. Cl ...

No more cows. We don't want cows anymore. I guess they want to kill all the cows.It's the greatest conj job ever perpetrated on the world in my opinion. Climate change. No matter what happens, you're involved in that.No more global warming. No more global cooling. All of these predictions made by the United Nations and many others, often for bad reasons, were wrong.They were made by stupid people that have cost their countries fortunes and given those same countries no chance for success. If you don't get a ...

I like TED talks because they're often about a really good idea that somebody had. I'm not going to do that today. My name is Todd Aers.I'm a professor of geossciences at the University of Glasgow. Today I'm going to give you an anti-TED talk. I'm going to talk about the worst idea ever.I want you to think for a minute. What was the worst idea you ever had. Well, perhaps it related to a bad financial decision you made. Or perhaps it was a decision that you made in a relationship that you regret.Well, if we' ...

Climate Risk and Adaptation - Australia has committed 6 billion USD over the next five years to climate adaptation spending [1] - The potential damage bill to infrastructure and property could run into the hundreds of billions of dollars [3] - The amount of adaptation spending required is determined by the amount of warming Australia and the world faces [4] Emissions Targets and Decarbonization - Australia is committed to achieving a 43% reduction on 2005 level greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 [6] - The Climate Change Authority has recommended a target between 65% to 75% below 2005 levels by 2035 [7] - To stay on a pathway of about 1.75 degrees Celsius of warming, Australia's energy-related emissions would need to fall by about 70% on 2005 levels by 2035 [8] Economic Opportunities and Risks - A higher emissions reduction target of 75% versus 65% would reap additional benefits to the Australian economy [12] - Australia has huge resources in lithium and other critical minerals, setting it up to become a clean energy superpower [14] - Insurance costs in Australia due to extreme weather events are around billions of dollars [17] - Extreme weather events have had a real drag on the nation's economy, which will become unmanageable by late this century if action isn't taken [18]

Hello, hello, hello. Good, good, good. Yeah, thank you guys for coming out on a Friday.I know this is school is not the place you necessarily want to be. Um, and I have a confession which is that I am significantly lazier than the previous speakers who had their talking points all in their mind. I'm going to be reading off page.Uh, so bear with that. So, there is an ancient folklore about a hummingbird that comes from the Ketwa people in the Andes Mountains of Peru. For those of you who remember Ishmael fro ...

Climate Change & Environmental Concerns - The speaker emphasizes the urgency of addressing climate change, highlighting contradictions in societal values where environmentally harmful practices are often respected [5][6] - The core issue driving climate change is identified as energy consumption, with 80-85% of energy still derived from coal, oil, and gas despite renewable energy advancements [13][14] - Carbon dioxide emissions from energy use are accumulating in the atmosphere, with current levels 53% higher than historical norms, leading to a global temperature increase of 25° Fahrenheit [17][18][19] - The planet faces critical thresholds of 15° and 2° centigrade warming, potentially leading to irreversible climate changes by 2029-2031 and within 20-25 years, respectively [20][21][22] - Unchecked, global warming could reach 3° to 6° centigrade by the end of the century (2100), raising concerns about human survival [23][24] Proposed Solutions & Actions - The "Finite Earth Movement" advocates for sustainable living by recognizing the planet's limitations [24][25] - A "Universal Climate Action Framework" is proposed, emphasizing awareness of consumption-related carbon emissions [26][27] - The framework includes adopting "2P" habits: Travel less, Use items wisely, Purchase cautiously, Eat carefully, and Eliminate electricity waste, covering 100% of carbon emissions [30] - The "AMG" action filter (Avoid, Minimize, Generate) prioritizes avoiding consumption, minimizing unavoidable consumption, and generating resources locally [31][32] - Individuals are encouraged to "be the change," build teams to promote reduced consumption, and contribute through social media, money, or time [35][36][38]

Okay, I find myself in a constant debate asking myself, do I have a responsibility to nature. If so, why. My goldfish sure doesn't think that way.Why should I. Are environmental problems worth solving. If so, which ones.And to what extent. Resources are still scarce, and there are a lot of problems to solve in the world. As someone who lives off Earth science trivia, I have a bias.But to an outside impartial observer, what's the best way to proceed. As we go on with our lives in the next few decades, these ...

In the past decade or so, interest in commercial skiing in South America has risen. Yet now, as the world warms, the industry is facing an uphill climb https://t.co/oCoN21bdd8 ...
