  • Photosynthesis controls the level of carbon dioxide in the air. All mankind can do is increase life on earth! And reduced global hunger.

  • If we teach children truth and facts, it's only fair that we teach them untruth and fiction to balance it out.

  • Wow she is such a fantastic speaker! A wordsmith I would say. Enjoyed it very much :)

  • I love Eugenie Scott so much. She cuts through the bullshit so well, when she's done you wonder why it had to be explained at all. It seems so obvious.

  • Religion isn't science...

  • Wouldn't it be better to do something about global warming instead of just sitting back and arguing. Even if it's not from global warming lets figure out the real reason (global warming) and do something about it. What else could it be from I don't see any people against global warming figuring out what it's from. At least scientists have an idea of what could be causing the temperature change.

  • @xXxXGODofCODXxXx Even if people don't believe in global warming; oil and coal and gas are going to run out so shouldn't we be finding an alternative in the mean-time anyway?

  • @DrChalkwithering Yes. But there are three problems. 1 - Accumulated wealth to date equals power & thePowerful do not want to change at a cost, only a profit. Delay equals assured profits continue! 2 - The rise of China (seekers of power),combined with the previous group ensures fosil fuels are consumed faster. 3 - The inevitable rise in consumption will acidify the Oceans & doomsdays (plural) are then guaranteed. It is mind bogglingly SIMPLE chemsitry. Do not try & study it. It hurts the mind.

  • @pjpopper Global warming has very little, if anything, to do with evolution.

  • @pjpopper "There was no primordial soup. It is assumed from ones who believe in evolution. ". You have defined yourself. You assume that evolution involves "primordial soup". "Global Warming ideas come from the evolutionary paradigm". ok. You are American. You are religious. You are prejudiced. You have no science education. And you have some kind of personal axe to grind. Want me to cast your horoscope?

  • @pjpopper "Science is based on observation of data, then hypothesis, then deduction." Your comment is incorrect and misleading. Never mind! Let's treat it as a logical argument. It is observed that temperatures are increasing. Therefore we hypothesise that the Earth is warming. Therefore we deduce that we better effing do something about it!

  • AGW-denialism cult is far worse than the creationist subhumans.

  • Pause at 0:51. Okay instead of taking a poll of who accepts evolution, define the word idiot and take a poll of those numbers.

  • Green theocracy is stronger than Christian theocracy. Much worse threat.

  • Creationism and AGW denial have a huge common thread- Republican party faithful

  • There's a real error in calling AGW-deniers "anti global warming".

  • @SaganAppreciationSoc Very true. In fact deniers are quite tolerant of global warming.

  • Eugenia advocates eugenism.

  • @JonThm

    Also, you know the Guiness (sp) Book of World Records? For YEARS it'd recorded the hottest temp ever recorded on Earth as being in July in Death Valley, CA @120F, but that record was broken this summer. Now the record temperature was recorded somewhere in CHINA, @*127F*!

    This should give you even *MORE* pause.

  • @JonThm

    ...underneath 30 *FEET* of water should give you AT LEAST some significant pause.

    Also, did you know that the past year, month, AND DECADE have all been the HOTTEST ON RECORD??! That is, the past year, month, and decade have all been the hottest ever recorded IN ALL OF RECORDED HUMAN HISTORY.

    Also, you know the Guiness (sp) Book of World Records? For YEARS it'd recorded the hottest temp ever recorded on Earth as being in July in Death Valley, CA @120F, but that record was broken thi

  • @JonThm

    Well, then you MAY wanna tell that to the citizens of Vermont, who are STILL underwater from the hurricane that struck NEW YORK CITY.

    In fact, the fact that *hurricanes* hit NEW YORK CITY (which is, you know, in the NORTH, not even an 8 hour's drive from fucking CANADA for Christ' sake), that the states of California, New Mexico, and Texas all BURNED all summer due to historic droughts, and the fact that an area of Australia the size of FRANCE AND GERMANY *COMBINED* was flooded undern

  • Photo synthesis has converted all mankind's additional carbon dioxide into extra life on earth.  There has been no weather effect from Monday fossil fuels. That is all lie from nuclear power and paid stooges

  • A rise in free carbon dioxide in the air is not possible because of photosynthesis

  • I know one of the comments here said "theory" is higher than "law" in science.

    They made a good point, but, let me not take sides on that right.

    Scientists and smart people need to use the stronger sounding "law" when speaking to stupid people:

    The Law of Anthropogenic Global Warming

    The Law of Evolution

    The Law of Gravity

    same way we speak of the Law of Conservation of Mass, Energy, Entropy.

  • @mphello no.... just.... no....

  • @feuchster yes.. just... yes

  • Too bad only about 7200 people had watched this. How can we convince 300 MILLION consumerist Americans with attention span of a goldfish to do the same?

  • I'm very happy to see the NCSE join the global warming 'debate'. }|:o)

  • SIDE NOTE: Don't forget at 6:00 pm E.S.T. the world is ending and judgement day begins this very day (Oct. 21, 2011) according to every ones favorite religious nut Harold Camping.

    I wonder if the senior care staff will wake Harold up to remind him?

  • Is that a belch at 50:36 ?

  • Oh Genie, it's too bad your already married. If you were single, we could raise money for your organization by holding a 'win a date with Genie Scott'.

  • Do whatever you want,just don't hurt anyone.The Universe is yours,just take it.Awajuk999@yahoo.com(Cain,my 999 plan is 50yrs old).

    

  • Nuclear power invented the word fiction of global warming. The natural weather has been cooling for 13 years.

  • CAGW fails the most basic of empirical scientific tests. Anyone checking the temp record the last 1,000 years can see a warm period rivalling (arguably surpassing) the current one, a colder period that bottomed out in the 1600's, and a recovery into present times. Meanwhile, we had relatively steady CO2 levels until 150 years ago. No correlation is there.

  • @mphello Fear-mongering is a VERY poor way to coax anyone into seeing things your way. Guilt is a rope that wears thin, Ayn Rand used to say, and alarmists are seeing what that means. Those who spout these pejoratives (like "denier"), followed by what should be done to them for daring to disagree, are only making matters worse for their own cause. The evidence that the opposing viewpoint is correct caused doubt, such bad behavior is what's causing the public to turn on you.

  • Bad logic. Further proof that Global Warming theory and what, if anything, we should do about it, should be in the hands of philosophers, not scientists.

  • AGW-deniers are ALSO dangerous for interfering with efforts to get the world off oil, which will run out in a decade. ("Run out" = the EROI will make it not worth drilling for another drop). AGW-deniers and peak-oil deniers are, right now, the cause of massive economic devastation, and they will be the cause of far worse economic catastrophe in the future.

  • AGW-deniers are dangerous unpatriotic cowards who should be - need to be - tried for crimes against humanity and national security (of each country) for their interference with the War Against Manmade Climate Change.

  • Evolution isn't real thats a FACT. Man caused Global warming isn't real either.

  • What's this 'denial' rubbish. Argue the science or shut up. Don't tell us what percentage believe one theory or another, that's not science. Science stands alone on verifiable facts. Cut of the name calling and give us the science. Oh right, you don't have any. So just keep calling people deniers and try to sound smug while you do it. Funny science that!

  • @guydecervens Agreed. Nothing to be ashamed about being a Socialist or Communist. Socialists and Communists need to be more vocal and proud about being so.

    And show us the science that disproves AGW. There is none.

  • @mphello I think with the amount of mass muder attributable to Communism and the state of current Socialism with figureheads like Dominique Strauss Kahn there is plenty for the Lefties to be ashamed of, if they had any sense or shame. As for your broad stroke that there is no scientific evidence to disprove manmade global warming of any significance, well I suppose if your people can airbrush Trotsky out of history you can just as easily deny the true scientists who don't preach the party line.

  • If you want to balance the teaching of evolution with religion. Go to a church or other religious place of worship. Global warming is based on false, and/or manipulated data. I could go into a huge debate over it with you fellow YouTubers, but I won't because I have better things to do than that. These are my views, you don't have to agree with them, or even respect them, I'm just putting my 2 cents in.

  • The jury isn't out on whether CO2 causes warming, but it is still out on how much it causes. Going from 200 PPM to 400 PPM may be a 100% increase, but it's till going from next to nothing to still next to nothing.

  • How do we measure global average temperature today and how do we measure it in medieval times?

  • Comment removed

  • 3:56 - There is actually a fourth class of denialist: Those who accept warming but have faith in a future innovative solution. Gamblers...

  • Eugenie and the NCSE = The best defense lawyers for Darwin and SCIENCE

    ID = The best representatives of religious idiocy

  • very interesting, but jesus, this was like sitting through a non-stop hour of a very long and monotonous class. :P

  • Americans are so fringing dumb... only in america you'd find people doubting Evolution and Global Warming ... what a crazy nation. and those folks control the world.

  • @MartianSanta Not everybody. I'm one of the 16% of Americans that don't blame you for your opinion.

  • @metalsusa1 Evolution and Global Warming are not opinions, it's only people in backward countries, like the USA, Israel, Pakistan and Afghanistan who deny scientific facts.

  • @MartianSanta Were the most industrially developed ultra religious country in the world for two reasons: 1) Separation of church and state 2) our country was settled by Calvinists and Puritans trying to create a better religious life for themselves.

  • @MartianSanta They are 100% opinions and not facts. Backwards country?? The US?? ROFL ROFL yeah whatever.

  • @MartianSanta Besides, most of your country (Israel) believes Moses parted the Red sea. LOL.

    Now that I think about it, so do we. D'OH!

  • @metalsusa1 Israel is even dumber the USA, i agree with that.

    doesn't change the fact America is still stuck in 18th century mindset

    The United States has the largest Christian population on earth, and second largest Jewish community in the world

    not to say that all Christians and Jews are idiots, but most idiots are Christians and Jews. Evolution and Global Warming are not a opinion, you can have an opinion on the way the government is run, Evolution and Global Warming are fucts

  • @MartianSanta They are not facts. Just because the idiots in your country think its true doesn't mean it is. The US has more intelligence then most other countries out there. Get your facts straight dumb ass.

  • @lovebigboobs29 culturally, politically, in regard to education, social and environmental awareness, America is decades behind countries like Germany, Norway and Switzerland and the rest of the enlightened western European countries. Obama is trying to get things that been basic in every modern country in the last 50 years.

    even Thatcher's Britain was more progressed then the US is today.if a minority has power and influence it doesn't make the country advanced. china and the us are the same.

  • @MartianSanta I don't see how we decades behind. I don't believe that. I live in the US and don't see us being behind. Obama is pretty much not doing anything but screwing the US up not helping it. Jusy my opinion please don't get mad.

  • @MartianSanta Well as long as we don't get some BS carbon tax because of the beliefs of global warming. We pay enough money to live already so screwing us with some Tax on carbon would be outragious.

  • @lovebigboobs29 your deluded "beliefs of global warming"

    OK even if you don't believe in global warming is it so crazy to recycle more and use more Recyclable Materials?

    and pass law forcing factories to try to reduce the release of carbon tax, even if it means big companies loss some profit? and plant more trees. even if you don't believe in global warming, will the world be any worse with less carbon dioxide in the air? i advice you to visit London, Berlin or solo to see progress your self!

  • @MartianSanta Problem is if they lose profit they will pass that off to us the consumer and then prices will rise for us so yes I think its a bad idea to do that. As for trees they get planted all the time so thats fine. I use whatever is cheapest recyclable or not. I also like the plastic bags stores give us for our groceries which for some reason environmentlists don't. I use them as trash bags in little bathroom cans. Also there is no recycling plant near my home so that wont be happening.

  • @lovebigboobs29 Americans, so selfish

    i know prices in Europe, know prices in the USA

    i wouldn't say that every thing in the USA is necessarily cheaper

    you can recycle in every little corner in Germany

    and it's a strongest industrial power in Europe

    a very clean country, a very free country and has the best public education and healthcare system...

    unlike america where people say nonsense like Obama is screwing america by bringing it to the 21th century

  • @MartianSanta you just proved that america is eons behind Europeans in every that makes a culture a modern progressed enlightened culture.

  • @MartianSanta Selfish?? Because we don't want to pay un-needed cash for some bullshit global warming?? We are already up to date in the 21st century nice try on that. Obama is dragging us into debt and passing some bullshit healthcare law where we get fined if we dont get it by 2014. His numbers have dropped very drastically on approval. Well there's no recycling thing in every corner here. Besides I am not stuffing trash in my car to take it to recycle. Thats why I have trash pick up.

  • @MartianSanta I take it you were trying to say everything is cheaper here well most everything then other countries. Whats that have anything to do with anything? I am not concerned if we pay less then everywhere else. We shouldn't have to pay more because they want to make money from a global warming scam.

  • @MartianSanta Sorry keep running our of typing characters. I highly doubt germany's school system is better then the US. We have a very good scool system as well. So quit trying to say we're idiots. We are as intelligent if not more intelligent then other countries.

  • @MartianSanta Please do not listen to lovebigboobs29. Ignore him. He makes Americans look very bad.

  • @SteezySkater72 i don't really listen to him, there are nuts like him in every country

    i just like pissing him off

    well, i began by trying to reason with him, but quickly changed to pissing him off

    i don't really think america is this or that, there are 300,000,000 people in the state, i just hope most of them aren't like Lovebigboobs29 here.

  • @MartianSanta I am not studying what berling or london are doing. If they believe in this global warming myth thats them. I am not the only one thats knows this is BS. I am not a bad person because I choose to live my life not worrying about some fake global warming claim. Its a way for governments to screw the citizens and charge them some un-needed extra taxes. The US is not decades behind alot of us are smart enough to know its not true.

  • It is biologically impossible for man to control the level of carbon dioxide in the air. Photosynthesis does that.

  • @JonThm Have you ever heard of non sequitur? You epitomized it here.

  • Also, google "free carbon dioxide graph," choosing the first link to the Earth System Research Laboratory website of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. That's just the last 4 years. There are some facts to educate you. (Or look at the first images that pop up for some graphs.)

  • No change in free carbon dioxide for 200 years: GW i thes a nu theclear lie put out by the thethe stupid

  • @FreboyDT biology is carbon cycle says yes: man cannot control the level of carbon dioxide in the air. Photosynthesis turns. Teacher is not aware of this should not be in education.

  • They should change "saving the planet" to saving the human race!

    I think the planet has put up with more shit than we could possibly throw at it!

    But the fact is, the planet has been though climate changes hundreds of times...

  • Comment removed

  • WOW, I'm surpised to see that such a large percentage of people in the US can't tell between fact and fiction. All around the rest of the world people have no problem combining their spiritual life with scientific facts, guess that's not the case over there...

  • @ekkin The last thing i want to do is to insult people who are honestly attempting to search for the truth or make it a competition (Who ever shouts loudest has the truth?)

    We got NASA, CERN, IPCC, UK/USA/AU/ Physical Society,etc, over 32 national sceince academies from all over the world agree, the people with the understanding and no how to discredit the idea or prove it wrong and yet they all agree??

    I mean why should i not believe them? Massive conspiracy seems to be the only answer?

  • @ekkin I mean to put this in perspective, the neutrino experiment, pretty much everyone, including CERN, doubt the result

    However,

    What they did was ask other sceintific organisations around the world to verify it as wrong or right.

    It seems completely unbelievable that this happened but if they come back and confirm it I will have no choice but to accept the result, my personal credulity does not comment on the truth of sceintific research.

    Same should apply to climate change

  • @ekkin I dont think its very helpful to frame things in terms of 2 sides against each other.

    I like to view it as, NASA and CERN and various other reputable and successful sceintific research and development organisations have made some observations and have made a hypothesis.

    Now they are either right or wrong on this, very simple.

    I think we can both agree that having an average citizen comment on the validaity of their work is silly and holds no value

  • @ekkin "every" and "all" do not work as there will be a point of disagreement even on the most basic fact. ..... I said I am skeptical I think human may be affecting temp......I have my doubts......treating this as you are for us or against us is all wrong."

    Having doubts is fine bro, Im not sure what your talking about in terms of "Us vs Them"

    Do you mean "Us" - regular citizens vs "Them" sceintific organisations?

  • Ironically the science teachers do teach 100% of the evidence against evolution... because 100% of zero is still nothing.

  • Twenty... one... percent?

    ;_;

    I don't want to live on this planet any more :(

  • After Effects FTW

  • To quote the , Utah Governor, Jon Huntsman's, one of the few smart GOP presidential candidates, response to Rick Perry's declaration of disbelief in global warming,

    "Just to be clear, I believe in Evolution and trust scientists on global warming. Call me crazy."

    Remember to vote in the GOP primary and to stop the other hardline idealists.

  • The future is so ominous...

  • LOL it's really funny to watch the U.S. government openly trying to keep their people ignorant. How can people accept this? Honestly? No global warming, no evolution? In schools? Because it attacks political and economic interests? How full of shit can politicians actually be? Dude, I wish you americans the best of luck in not becoming the most ridiculous country in the world....

  • Someone needs to teach creationist that "fair" does not necessarily equate to "equal".

  • Persuaded by the Evidence, Part I, Volume I (remove the spaces in the address)

    h ttp://youtu.b e/e3OihbyVKB4

    Interviews six scientists who abandoned the evolutionary dogma in favour of the young earth, Biblical creation model, because of their own research. Their backgrounds are wide and varied, their stories take many twists and turns.

  • I always hear people talk about how global warming is the cause of humans and not by nature or that we don't fully understand our atmosphere's cycles. Could someone give me sources for all of the scientific experiments that prove that humans are the cause to a climate change? Thank you.

  • @j03y2fly There are thousands of papers that support human-induced (or at least human-exacerbated) climate change. I'd recommend scrolling to the bottom of Wikipedia's climate change article and looking at the sources cited there.

  • dont you link global warming to denial of evolution.

    Allot of the atheists in the atheist community deny global warming.

    The highest numbers are found within people libertarian groups.

    People like Penn Jillette for example, says straight out it isnt caused by humans.

  • She smacks her lips periodically in the talk. It is very annoying and very distracting. I think she is also far too dependent on her notes. Not the best public speaker, but the substance was phenominal.

  • Excellent atmosphere, where people are relaxed and sipping pints while listening calmly to a research scientist present issues.

    Thanks.

  • I cannot believe we are still calling Evolution a "Theory" when the fact of Evolution has been proved many times.

  • @brogs60 "Theory" has a different meaning in the scientific context. The theory of evolution explains the fact of evolution. The germ theory of disease, atomic theory, and the theory of gravitation are also theories that explain facts.

  • @brogs60 Theory is biggest thing in science... Laws are actually smaller than theories

  • @brogs60 Theory is biggest thing in science... Laws are actually smaller than theories

  • @iliveon There's no hierarchy of science. Theories never become laws. Theories and laws just play different roles.

  • @Eosimias100 "There's no hierarchy of science. "

    I don't think you meant to say that

    "Theories never become laws"

    Well of course, but laws are smaller than theories in explanation power

  • @iliveon When I said there is no hierarchy, I didn't mean that one was not stronger than the other. I meant that one does not lead into another. That is, a theory can never get so much support that it "graduates" into becoming a law.

  • @Eosimias100 "That is, a theory can never get so much support that it "graduates" into becoming a law."

    I agree, because laws are smaller than theory by nature

  • @Eosimias100 Evolutionary theory is a wide compilation of the mechanisms of how genes change over time... Each of the mechanisms and proven laws are smaller things within theory

  • Genie=Genius in german

  • @CHIPSTERO7 guys who think that the fact that a video of the national center for science education got thumbs up is "certainly worrying" are seriously worrying!

  • @CHIPSTERO7 The fact that you agree to teachers being forced to teach bullshit without evidence, and to treat the word "theory" as if it meant "hypothesis", distorting something completely rational, logic and unbiased, as guaranteed by the scientific method, and all that for political and ideological reasons: that's certainly worrying.

  • Jesus Fucking Christ! Why are we even having this discussion in the 21st century?!? You folks on the left side of the bell curve are starting to piss me off.

  • No real CAGW-skept denies AGW. Also the 97% of scientists agreeing on CAGW is based only on the opinions of 75 scientists. See here: ht tp://joannenova.co m.au/2011/01/what-does-it-take­-for-a-worldwide-consensus-jus­t-75-opinions/ (remove spaces in link) The consensus that humans are the prime cause has been grossly exaggerated by every propaganda media orifice. There are over 900 peer-review papers rejecting CAGW: ht tp://ww w.populartechnology.ne t/2009/10/peer-reviewed-papers­-supporting.html

  • @CHIPSTERO7 Look up the Wiki page titled "Scientific opinion on climate change." Many sources are cited that show an overwhelming consensus among experts.

    Also, Google "The Carbon Brief: analysing the 900 papers supporting climate scepticism." Those 900 papers mostly come from the same handful of people over and over -- and most of them are working for fossil fuel industries.

  • @CHIPSTERO7 consensus does not equal truth, which is what your first links shows. thinks for posting real links. I keep asking for articles and all I seem to get is unsupported claims, insults but no articles of any merit.

  • @cybersekkin I am not arguing that consensus = truth. That is exactly what CAGW-apologists are insidiously beavering away at. The point of my post was simply to demonstrate that the consensus for CAGW has been exaggerated. Nevertheless, AGW is real and I except there so be a consensus on that. Although whether there is a consensus of scientists that agree with the UN bureaucrats and mathemagicians in lab-coat camouflage at the IPCC is another question altogether and one I think is very unlikely.

  • Comment removed

  • I think she should've used more specific terms. The political conservatives that she mentions are fiscal conservatives while the religious ones are social conservatives.

  • Religion and politics getting in the way of science.... what a surprise!!!

  • Am I the only one who finds Genie so terribly sexy?

  • the biggest offenders of cherry picking data are the evolutionists, not creationists. MOnkey looks like man therefore we are moneys.. BS.. not one transitional bone showing we came from any type of ape, gorilla or chimp..not one bone. Darwin said, if there are no transtitional bones, my theories are implausable.

  • @jerrydyer lol... you believe in magic

  • @AvatarOfAvatar

    no actually.. you do. you beleive life arose out of non life so therefore you beleive in magic.

  • @jerrydyer you believe some floaty space guy said "hocus pocus" and everything just appeared, exactly like it is...

    Dont speak for me either, imbecile, I believe that I neither know, nor neither give a fuck how the universe began, it just is.

  • @jerrydyer creationists are idiots. Go to the Smithsonian and look at the fossil record for yourself. Get a college education and learn about DNA. don't just sit here in your drawers repeating the same (false) sentiment over and over like you know something. Thats what an idiot does. Go Read. Stop typing. You are a fool, but it doesn't have to be that way, you too can get an education and not live in disgruntled ignorance.

  • lol i love the statement our scientists as though you can have your own science aside from peer review the religious make their own deploma mills to claim they have the backing they dont.

  • Of COURSE we should be fair and balance it out. For every fact we cram into kids heads, we need to cram an opposing LIE into their heads. That way the total net sum of education is 0. Once we have that going, we can save a lot of money and fix the economy by just closing all schools and returning to a period of feudalism, when only the rulers are educated.

    It's the only sound, logical, reasonable thing to do!

  • @luccaskunk Genius comment!

  • Comment removed

  • Well done - with all the beerloving people chattering away - and very interesting information. I'm wiser after watching this. Thank you.

  • the biggest global warming deniers i have seen on the internet are psycho conspiracy theorists. 'nuff said

  • Mark Aldridge already proved that the info from the IPCC was incorrect look up Marks website it won't let me put the link up :(

  • Leave it to fox to create a retarded poll by asking about the origins of life and suggesting evolution is the answer. Evolution does not explain the origins, it explains the diversity. Abiogenesis explains the origins of life and the answer is still not known.

  • Genie furthers my love affair with reality and education. Cheers.

  • 10,000 "thumbs up" from me, if only I could.

  • @gunnerfan87 Yeah, Im not so concerned about creationist, thanks to the work of this wonderful lady (And many many others) their is no real threat of it taking off.

    However,

    Denying Climate Change has a very real and immediate effect, for the most part Climate Change deniers are not dis-honest or religously motivated, my experience is that most of them will change their mind given the evidence if presented in a fair, balanced and understanding method

  • @shandcunt

    The corporations have done a great job of brainwashing the majority of people. Their policy has its roots in the Anglo-American legal system and its emphasis on only maximizing profits through ignoring factors called externalities.

  • Comment removed

  • @shandcunt Im not even sure who is supposedly profiting from this conspiracy?

    I encourage you to do the research yourself but to treat it no different to any other sceintific theory, would you listen to the sceintists or the media?

    We all know that if some sceintist can over throw a given consensues that they receive huge funding and praise as well as the institution they represent

    why is this not happening with evolution? bcos its true

    Why is this not happening with climate change?
