Land use is the second leg of climate change. It is the more inconvenient truth. What we did to the land by paving it over with cities and sterilizing it with large monocrop farms, has driven the need to burn so much fossil fuel. Growth and the global economy is climate change. By obsessing about emissions, and not the reason why we generate them, by obsessing about renewables, we continue to neglect the root cause for the modern economy’s energy intensity: How we use in abuse the land. That process defines our energy use and the cheapest energy is the stuff we never dig out of the ground.
We've already gone over the edge. Might have helped 40 years ago. Now we can just monitor it happening to our only home. Feel I lived through the best of times for me at 72. There's always an end for all living things. Change starts with yourself and nobody else.
This isn’t hard folks. The microbes in your average bucket of muck can rapidly configure themselves to survive indefinitely in that bucket. Modern societies have no such skill. And the only criteria that really matters in facing that challenge is to operate under the constraint to build the most comfortable lifestyle possible on the territory you currently occupy. This is at the community level. It will require the greatest human invention, not in multi trillion dollar investment to pillage of the planet to build renewables. The cheapest carbon capture the most efficient reduction in fossil fuels is the stuff we never dig out of the ground, or need to run our day-to-day existence. yet all the climatologist and their obsession about emissions and desire to cast land only in terms of CO2 emissions, and not in the hydrological cycle that sustains and supports us is abominable. The more inconvenient truth is, we have cut down and destroyed the living skin of the planet, which has crafted our climate. It doesn’t matter if you swap renewables for oil because that process itself is just more of the same process paving over and sterilizing paradise.
It's estimated that half of all emissions come from burning garbage in open pits in developing countries. Zero effort is made to stop this. You don't need to feel guilty about driving a car or using electricity.
@@wydadiyoun But thanks for proving that you don't care at about climate change and are using it to excuse racist poor people and punish kind Western people.
LooooL worked in sustainability for 6 years and the first time I have ever heard this. Everyone knows developing countries comprises a relatively small part of overall global emissions. The whole continent of Africa last I saw was less than 5%. Let's not pass on responsibility, we all have a part to play in this but let's be serious of who has the greater responsibility
What the hell are you talking about 'we don't know who's responsible or when this started.' We know exactly who is and when is started!
This is a great development. Now you need to find a way to make it go viral.

Do your thing RUclips algorithm.
food waste is something we really can do with, if end up in landfill they became methane!
used to feed at least 1/2 of all food waste to pigs. Then the big agri companies lobbied and got it banned, so you now have to buy their feed.
@@jonovens7974 lobbying really should be make illegal, you don't need to lobby if the product is really good and/or survives in the free market
I don't think we have to wonder what's causing it.

You do! Cite your source for this garbage statistic

@@wydadiyoun Also, burning garbage accomplishes nothing. Driving a car or running a power plant is actually useful.

both global warming and higher levels of CO₂ would benefit the biosphere
the Earth is too cold
and CO₂ is a nutrient
