global warming is a fake and soon to be monopolized scheme plotted by the government to basically get us to fight one another if and when they pass the carbon tax law.. it states that we should spy on our neighbors and if they are not being "green friendly" then to tattle on them and be reported to the authorities.. ok 1st off.. has our government now turned into our old high school teacher ... to be fined and or thrown in jail for not being green friendly.. you people really need to read up
i was delighted when i saw Nikos's "Save It" video as a public service announcment on a popular DVD we rented. He and his mother is a myspace friend and i did not know it was getting so widely seen. Namasté, nan
It's interesting how people think that a life giving gas is causing temperatures to rise.
One problem is that people underestimate the power of the sun. If I had to choose if co2 or a gigantic ball of fire is causing temperature changes on earth then it won't be very hard. Do research on the sun.
Where does co2 come from? Oceans, Volcanoes, dying vegetation, air that we breathe out, etc (look it up). Plants breathe in co2 so we can have oxygen! Global Warming/Climate Change a fraud in order to bring in a carbon tax.
The sun's solar cycle causes co2 fluctuations. It isn't the other way around. Watch The Great Global Warming Swindle.
Alright i got a comment tellin me to make a vid about how Global Warming doesnt Exist...K well im not going to do that lol i never said Global Warming doesnt exist but seriously... look at the facts we are far from global Warming Seriously Effecting us... Make a vid like this 30 yrs from now and then ull get some good responses...
Just a little message from a Canadian neighbor, late on Tuesday night:
CONGRATULATIONS, USA! BARAK OBAMA IS YOUR NEW PRESIDENT!!!
There's real hope now, a way out of the darkness of the last eight years. May your newly elected leader help bring a peacefuland happy future to each and every American. May you know the peace of mind of never having to think twice about seeing a doctor or going to hospital.
Good point, kueball... but the problem is we can't figure this out because all of the global warming "scientists" are in the pocket of Big Environment, getting grants to support the cause of global warming, rather than doing actual science and trying to discern fact.
Nikos, Keep doing this!!! This is awesome work! It gives the rest of us that care about our planet and quality of life on it, hope for the future! Spread the word!!! I'll be posting this all over the place too!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
this is retarded CO2 has always been a natural element and that global warming scam is stupid. the temp has gone up a fraction of a degree!!! holy fuckin shit, lets all panic and start saving the earth from a natural change!!!
You don't understand. 1 degree, doesn't mean it is 1 degree hotter everywhere that is an average over the whole world. It means there is 1 degree more engery in earths weather systems. The earth is so big that 1 C more energy is a hell of alot. That extra engery is extra damage a storm can do to your house.
The Econimic crisis is nothing compared to what Nature can do, do not let your greed cause another disater. Don't forget.
Good work Nikos, it is your problem more than most.
I think most of you are missing the point here, it shows the car pumping gas because we WASTE more of it than anyone else in the world! We don't need it, we can find other ways to "run" up to the store. Also he shows the icecaps melting and the floods and all that so it isn't just the gasoline problem. Only if we could get more people to get it like Nikos does. Good job on the video, you are the man!
ninjayang i dont cut any trees,even for cristhmas;but instead of worry about the whole planet worry by those kids without parents,those senior citizens without help,those people with out medical insurance;the earth ,the universe,they take care of themselves u cant do nothing about it;and before anything u need to bring peace and happiness to u self and to all ,then u could go OUT and wear banana leaves as clothes and hunt and fish for food no for pleasure.make u own house,etc THAT WILL BE HEAVEN

Well done!! Straight and to the point. Judging from some of the comments in here, seems we still have a long way to go before some people realize the consequences of the actions (or inaction)...kinda sad:(
The issue of global warming bombards us so much through the media everyday, its nice to see that not everyone is falling for this liberal propaganda. The biggest advocates for "going green" are often the biggest offenders. And while we do need to take care of our environment, reducing our usage of fossil fuels certainly isn't going to stop one of the earth's natural cycles. Only an idiot would think that man is even capable of such an act. Let's not try to play God here.
ya really, are ya gonna listen to this 10 year old or an adult? climate change is happening but really get serious everybody so active about does nothing and goes about and does whatever they do and kill the earth as much as we do. sorry champ but your little video isnt gonna change the world. the earth will die by this or something else eventually, everybody needs to screw their head on straight and not be a bunch of hippe activists that do nothing but make their kids look like they care...
damn moonrice555 you posted a ton of comments on this video. do you work for al gore and try to combat negative comments on global warming videos all day or something! get a life!
not entirely true. The gov't will keep anything that can make them a buck, or give them an advantage. Look at all of the bad pesticides that are still allowed, yet have had no proper testing or research. I am still not sure about global warming myself, but whether or not it's a real concern, we need to try alternative fuels NOW. Oil will run out anyway, and it'll take hundreds of thousands of years to get it back.
Oil's not going to run out. There's enough oil, untapped under the Appalachain mountains to last America 400 years. The science is there and proves it. But politicians keep us from tapping into it and saving our country's economy. Fuck politicians, even down to the lowest mayor in the country. Fuck 'em all...
global warming is complete bullshit. the earths temperature has been changing for millions of years. ice ages, heat waves, al gore is a dumbass that is full of shit and just wants you to think he is some kind of hero.
That explains why he lost the election 8 years ago!
I think a better question would be "How much did you have to drink before you decided that global warming is a bunch of crap?" I mean, do you actually have a reason to think there is no global warming, or are you just talking out your ass?
I don't talk out of my rear end. Try to keep this PG- this was posted by an impressionable 10 year old!
So I guess the question I should ask you is "how much kool aid did you drink?"
There are many reasons to be very skeptical of this global warming hoax, however you are obviously a 'true believer' and will probably always be convinced the sky is falling and we are all about to perish. They got you where they want you!
Natural temperature fluctuations is one- most likely caused by the sun, but that doesn't sell papers, and it's real hard to turn it into a political issue that way.
By the way, is the temperature still going up? Last I heard the global average had actually been decreasing for a few years.
No Al Gore, the debate isn't "over" just because you distorted the facts and made a movie. You just aren't a part of it.
Global warming has been pushed on us for so long by politicians that it's part of our culture now like big hair and spandex was in the 80s. A report a year ago showed the earth's average temperature over the last 100 years increased by 3 degrees. Woopdy fucking doo. It's now dropping and Gore also blames this on 'global warming'. Mars shows the same kind of temperature increase. I wonder how much we here on earth had to do with that increase. Fuck Gore, fuck all those assholes that promote it...
I know this is an extremely emotional subject on both sides... but could everyone please try to keep the language PG? Believe it or not a 10 year old really did write and direct this video. He and his friends at times log on to read the comments. No matter which side of the argument you're on, please keep in mind that we can educate and debate without cursing. Our kids are obviously very impressionable as evidenced by the fact that Nikos conceived this himself. Thanks,
do your fucking research asshole there is a 40 year lag behind co2 and the warmming effect most of the rise came in the 1920s way before most of this fictional carbon tax came about.
Ok well I personally don't really give a shit of what happens, dont bother giving me that "thumbs down" there ill just repost.
Save "it" what is "it"??
also if you want to save "it" why don't you stop driving and breathing? Stop trying to make OUR lives inconvenient, I work 8 hours a day and i can't be late to work, so I am NOT going to fucking wake up at 4AM just to WALK to my job in manhattan then walk back, and sleep for 2 hours then repeat when I can wake up at 7 and DRIVE to my office.
You need mental help. We all work, and a lot of can't walk the distance. The point is you can find ways to do things better, like taking public transportation, or carpooling with others. You're crying about every little aspect of this topic instead of using common sense. You're wondering what "it" is, well, it could be the Earth, but more precisely, it's life on Earth, because that is what we're killing.
David Evans, climatologist said the global warming "smoking gun" has not been found. He said they jumped the gun before they had the evidence. He's the climatology for Australia.
thisvideo was make by his parents ,stop using u child to post videos,its child abuse.well he could start saving , by turning of his computer,walking to school and live with out ac,dont use toilet paper etc etc;i be like the WHO said IM AN AIR CONDITION USER we dont give damn about pollution,and by the way CO2 its expelled by u everytime u breathe?so what solution u give to that? i dont think u want u familie to die just for a little hole they r making on space every time they expel CO2.
Do your research. Nobody said we had to eliminate CO2 from our breath. CO2 is necessary for life, but we're taking it out of the earth and putting it in the air far too quickly. We just have to rebalance it. That's what trees do, they store it. When we cut too many down at one time, it releases it all into the air. We're not killing the Earth though, just ourselves. Apparently by these other comments we really ARE that stupid. People don't even believe once they see the truth.
To grow forward in our hearts passions, we must ask ourselves: Does criticism or flattery affect me? Keep following the guidance of the Inner Genius, and you will continue to make a difference!
Very insigtfull video Nikos, I am so impressed with what you have done. It's up to your generation to really fix the mess we've made of our world. Seeing this gives me hope that it may be able to be done if kids get involved and we all start to do SOMETHING! Judyscout
Excellent video! I'm amazed a 10 year old did this...yet I am reminded it is the future generations who will inherit the earth, and the ones we ought to be listening to as well as concerning ourselves with.~ What kind of world do we want to leave them?
Nikos!I'm very impressed!But also depressed: The boy in the video could as well be me, when I was that age:this is EXACTLY how I felt when seeing cars with only one driver,breathing the exhaust fumes on my bike behind them,and those factories... Today I do not stop anymore to ask folks to please turn off their motors when they are waiting somewhere - it's MY generation now, in these cars...and MY generation carrying on what we've inherited.Sad, isn't it? Love & respect for your work,Nikos - Nic
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Nice! Another product of a brainwashed product of the state school system. Glad I am living in the golden age. Live free or die! People like geerabe think they are so important but are really self loathing. Research CO2 emissions from countries vs GDP and how the US compares. See if the truth matters. You have the tools.
have any links that shows that the US emissions are as low as they could be or that US emissions are lowest per capita? From what I've seen, US emmissions per capita are among the highest (with China growing quickly). In any case, there is no reason why we can't conserve and set an example. Since when do we chose to follow when we could lead? (we'd have some catch up to do first...) It's not about self-loathing but self-improvement.
We're borrrowing money from China to buy oil from the persian gulf to burn it in ways that destroy the future of human civilization.. Every bit of that has to change!
Great job! I believe the people leaving nasty messages here truly do not care about other humans, their environment, nor other living things. They don't even care about themselves; it is as if they seem to think the world is just fine the way it is. I think the truly intelligent humans know better - they are the ones who care about sustaining the planet and are willing to make shorts like this to bring about change; they are the ones conducting research to fix problems often caused by HUMANS.
My grandchildren are going to love this. The rest of this collection is also awesome, Nikos. I understand that you are the first "Earth Hero" and I think I recognized you voice on a few other videos by TessCacc (under video responses...look up)
We are upsetting the atmosphere upon which all life depends. In the late 80s when I began to take climate change seriously, we referred to global warming as a "slowmotion catastrophe" one we expected to kick in perhaps generations later. Instead, the signs of change have accelerated alarmingly.
Excellent video skills! Especially for your age :)
I do not agree with Global Warming being the destruction of us. I believe its the genetically engineered foods and chemicals we are fed in our every day diet. The world is being poisoned by us...and we are the world. So we are poisoning ourselves to extinction. Lets hope we can do something to save it but i think earth will save her self first by exterminating us. Thanks for the vid 5 stars!
"The good news is, we have everything we need now to respond to the challenge of global warming. We have all the technologies we need, more are being developed.... But we should not wait, we cannot wait, we must not wait."
"All across the world, ...increasingly dangerous weather patterns and devastating storms are abruptly putting an end to the long-running debate over whether or not climate change is real. Not only is it real, it's here, and its effects are giving rise to a frighteningly new global phenomenon: the man-made natural disaster. "
The warnings about global warming have been extremely clear for a long time. We are facing a global climate crisis. It is deepening. We are entering a period of consequences."
Truly amazing. I am also an aspiring writer/director and young people like you, who are wise, give me hope that my OWN film will make a difference. Thanks for sharing this with us! Also, be aware that people will always have something positive OR negative to say. The great thing about writers is, you can learn from the negative and even use their behavior in one of your films! So don't get down about any comments that have been made, even though that's hard; I love ya and thats all that matters!
Thank you for your hearth and soul into this video to capture our attention. You will get a lot of negative comments, I am sure from unintelligent souls who have nothing better than to say nasty things for attention to themselves. Good luck young man! Don't get discouraged and keep it going. It will be hard but you can do it!
Wow!! Way to go! What a great video! This is very impressive and makes you think especially on how simple and easy this all leads up to, from getting gas etc. You are a very smart young man and off to great things, be proud of yourself, I think some of the adults on here could learn many lessons from you!
I love your video! I wish I was brave enough to do something like that. Thank you so much for your strength. I hope someday, you will run this country. We need more people like you.
May I say that this video is brilliant. Don't listen to these people who say nasty things to you. I wish that there were more people in the world like you, keep it up and don't ever let anyone get you down. You've got my 5 stars.
Awesome video Nikos.. very well done. I've been teaching my children about world issues and they are now calling you their hero. Keep up the fight, together we can make a change.
'You must be the change you wish to see in the world' --Gandhi
Nikos, anyone posting negative comments on your video are simply jealous that someone as young as you can understand the problems of our world. It embarrasses them that someone so young can see so clearly and they can't. This is a fantastic video and you should be rightly proud of yourself and your hard work. You did a wonderful job. You have wonderful potential as a producer. I wish you nothing but success. I don't know you and I'm proud of you, I can only imagine how your parents feel.
Everybody who has been giving rude comments about this video are just ill-educated, and at 10 years old, YOU ARE ALREADY SMARTER THAN ALL OF THEM NIKOS!
Congratulations on doing your best to educate the people of the world (even if they do NOT want to face the obvious facts) about Global Warming.
I thought this was great! I can't wait for his second one! There are people much older than this boy that don't give a rats arse and they feel it is not their problem. They keep their head buried in the sand.
You did a wonderful job on this video. You are our future, Our generation ruined it, And I am glad that the new generation is taking action. Job well done!
A heroic message and excellently executed! Not even many adults or teenagers nowadays are both brave enough as well as intelligent enough to say 'No' to ignorance and lazyness.
Thank you Nikos. The more people try to riducule you, the more it means they are afraid that their lazyness might become obvious.
I applaud you for your efforts and artistic ability, knowledge and courage. Keep up the good work. I am glad there are people out there like you that care about the future.
Great video. I am amazed that a 10 year old can make something so beautiful and true. Congratulations to you for being the voice of change! These stupid losers that put you down and discredit global warming are right winged idiots..just ignore them. :)
Great Job! Global warming or not (just to satisfy everyone), at least someone this young cares about Earth and dedicates his time to do this! Most 10yrs play games and probably never think about earth a lot. if not any! So again "Great Job" to him for trying! Everyone should try their best at keeping Earth well enough,even if that includes less driving or just recycling. Every little bit counts, may not be much but at least YOU ARE trying! You don't have to believe in Global Warming to do that!
amazing video! In one minute, you wrap up a very complex issue and make it really quite simple. bravo!!! Once we agree there's a problem, we can work together towards more sustainable fuel, energy and living.
Well done! I'm 31 years old and couldn't have done this. You're quite a remarkable young man. Keep up the hard work. The world needs more people like you in it!
"the whole world can't be wrong and you right" is something my grandmother always said to me, and shes right. I applaud this boy for being so brave and standing up for what he feels is important to him and others around him.this is all I have to say Any intelligent fool can make things bigger, more complex, and more violent. It takes a touch of genius and a lot of courage to move in the opposite direction. This 10 year old can change the world, and he has us to support and love him for it!
Appropriate music and sound effects, poignant and relevant message, well said, to-the-point, and memorable: Congratulations on a great video. I will definitely share this with some students and friends.
To see our youth fully understanding the plight of our planet (due to greedy, arrogant and IGNORANT people) is quite remarkable and gives me hope for an otherwise bleak future.
Keep being a voice for our planet, Nikos.... you are the future and your verve and compassion for life is what this world needs!
OH! and don't listen to the nay-sayers! it's their closed minds that led us to this mess in the first place!
Knowing that a ten year old feels strongly enough to share his views via this video, gives me hope for the future of our planet. The subtlety in his directing gives me hope for the future of filmmaking - I expect to see Mr. Spiridakis at Sundance someday - maybe sooner than later...
Sometimes, wisdom can be found in the voices of our children. We ignore that voice at our own peril. Thank you for sharing your voice with us. And don't let the bullies get you down.
"All across the world, in every kind of environment and region known to man, increasingly dangerous weather patterns and devastating storms are abruptly putting an end to the long-running debate over whether or not climate change is real. Not only is it real, it's here, and its effects are giving rise to a frighteningly new global phenomenon: the man-made natural disaster."
"Our nation has both an obligation and self-interest in facing head-on the serious environmental, economic and national security threat posed by global warming."

The Elites who wish to use it as an excuse to create Trillions of Dollars in Taxes to divert the worlds wealth and power to themselves.
The Religious Zelots who wish to see most of the human race ( except them personally ) punished. Their tools of choice abortion and starvation.
Other religious fanatics who have eight ( 8 ) kids plus China and India who already have enough population to pick up the slack of western sucide.

if global warming was a real problem, the government would have banned oil from the US or made some huge changes by now.
And dont try to tell me that hybrids are some kind of solution and all that shit. they burn just as much fuel as a regular car!
Anyone who believes in global warming is a fuckin retard!
boald15 3 years ago
not entirely true. The gov't will keep anything that can make them a buck, or give them an advantage. Look at all of the bad pesticides that are still allowed, yet have had no proper testing or research. I am still not sure about global warming myself, but whether or not it's a real concern, we need to try alternative fuels NOW. Oil will run out anyway, and it'll take hundreds of thousands of years to get it back.
icky8vicky 3 years ago
Oil's not going to run out. There's enough oil, untapped under the Appalachain mountains to last America 400 years. The science is there and proves it. But politicians keep us from tapping into it and saving our country's economy. Fuck politicians, even down to the lowest mayor in the country. Fuck 'em all...

I think a better question would be "How much did you have to drink before you decided that global warming is a bunch of crap?" I mean, do you actually have a reason to think there is no global warming, or are you just talking out your ass?
moonrice555 3 years ago
I don't talk out of my rear end. Try to keep this PG- this was posted by an impressionable 10 year old!
So I guess the question I should ask you is "how much kool aid did you drink?"
There are many reasons to be very skeptical of this global warming hoax, however you are obviously a 'true believer' and will probably always be convinced the sky is falling and we are all about to perish. They got you where they want you!

moonrice555 3 years ago
Natural temperature fluctuations is one- most likely caused by the sun, but that doesn't sell papers, and it's real hard to turn it into a political issue that way.
By the way, is the temperature still going up? Last I heard the global average had actually been decreasing for a few years.
No Al Gore, the debate isn't "over" just because you distorted the facts and made a movie. You just aren't a part of it.

moonrice555 3 years ago
Global warming has been pushed on us for so long by politicians that it's part of our culture now like big hair and spandex was in the 80s. A report a year ago showed the earth's average temperature over the last 100 years increased by 3 degrees. Woopdy fucking doo. It's now dropping and Gore also blames this on 'global warming'. Mars shows the same kind of temperature increase. I wonder how much we here on earth had to do with that increase. Fuck Gore, fuck all those assholes that promote it...
guitarbandit7498 3 years ago
I know this is an extremely emotional subject on both sides... but could everyone please try to keep the language PG? Believe it or not a 10 year old really did write and direct this video. He and his friends at times log on to read the comments. No matter which side of the argument you're on, please keep in mind that we can educate and debate without cursing. Our kids are obviously very impressionable as evidenced by the fact that Nikos conceived this himself. Thanks,

also if you want to save "it" why don't you stop driving and breathing? Stop trying to make OUR lives inconvenient, I work 8 hours a day and i can't be late to work, so I am NOT going to fucking wake up at 4AM just to WALK to my job in manhattan then walk back, and sleep for 2 hours then repeat when I can wake up at 7 and DRIVE to my office.

You need mental help. We all work, and a lot of can't walk the distance. The point is you can find ways to do things better, like taking public transportation, or carpooling with others. You're crying about every little aspect of this topic instead of using common sense. You're wondering what "it" is, well, it could be the Earth, but more precisely, it's life on Earth, because that is what we're killing.

solatuyax 3 years ago
Do your research. Nobody said we had to eliminate CO2 from our breath. CO2 is necessary for life, but we're taking it out of the earth and putting it in the air far too quickly. We just have to rebalance it. That's what trees do, they store it. When we cut too many down at one time, it releases it all into the air. We're not killing the Earth though, just ourselves. Apparently by these other comments we really ARE that stupid. People don't even believe once they see the truth.

Nice! Another product of a brainwashed product of the state school system. Glad I am living in the golden age. Live free or die! People like geerabe think they are so important but are really self loathing. Research CO2 emissions from countries vs GDP and how the US compares. See if the truth matters. You have the tools.
jcomd 3 years ago
have any links that shows that the US emissions are as low as they could be or that US emissions are lowest per capita? From what I've seen, US emmissions per capita are among the highest (with China growing quickly). In any case, there is no reason why we can't conserve and set an example. Since when do we chose to follow when we could lead? (we'd have some catch up to do first...) It's not about self-loathing but self-improvement.

Great job! I believe the people leaving nasty messages here truly do not care about other humans, their environment, nor other living things.

We are upsetting the atmosphere upon which all life depends. In the late 80s when I began to take climate change seriously, we referred to global warming as a "slowmotion catastrophe" one we expected to kick in perhaps generations later. Instead, the signs of change have accelerated alarmingly.
