When Bill McKibben says he is, "Tired of losing and it's fun to take the bad guys down a peg or two..." he wasn't kidding.

350.org has coordinated the largest climate event in history and is showing that people from around the world want to live in a safe and clean environment. This interview has photos from around the world participating in the 350 message, discusses the science of climate change, and goes behind the scenes of the event that just might save the world.

  • climate change isn't that big of a deal. the Earth is getting hotter, the Earth WAS a lot hotter. then it got a lot colder. then it heated up again.

    it's pretty arrogant of us to assume we have such a profound impact on the planet.

    worst case scenario, we all die...eventually. it's bound to happen sooner or later! Plus who really cares if the human race or Earth survives or not? just us. the universe wont miss us =(

  • and the world is gonna end in 2012 anyways xD

see all

  • I eventually browsed the internet / did other things while this video finished.

    IT was VERY long/ too long...

    good message but ... yeah you could have summed it up faster

  • watch?v=VebOTc-7shU

    I think this is an important video to watch in order to gain a broader understanding of the complexity behind the Global Warming debate.

  • Your defense for your phony statement now is someone else's rudeness. Two times last years ppl has complained about my language. You and tsport100.

  • clevername333. "at the comments posted on your youtube channel. It looks like there have been many other people who are frustrated with your method of debate."

    One person erased all comments by mine and blocked me after I proved arguments to be wrong. He claims he did that because my English is bad.

    When you say I'm not thinking logically and that my arguments doesn't make sense because my English is bad it's not intelligent. Thats fact and a valid response to your stupid statement about me.

  • I just took a look at the comments posted on your youtube channel. It looks like there have been many other people who are frustrated with your method of debate.

    Furthermore, stating "truth" as your thesis is fallacious. Truth is a concept, and the very basis of it is debatable.

    Here is an example of a "Thesis" in regards to Global warming.

    I believe there is sufficient evidence in regards to history, politics, and scientific fact to refute the claim that C02 is driving climate change.

  • Dear Magnusea,

    Please note, that I made no personal attacks towards you in regards to your intelligence. However, it makes sense that your grammar was a bit off in regards to your native language. Please keep the debate on the subject at hand, and not on personal attacks.

  • The fact is that 2-50 million years ago the organisms were way different. With levels of CO2 that high it would cause massive bleaching of corals which depend on stable conditions and the hundreds of species which depends on corals, including humans will suffer.

    The fact is, sure the earth will bounce back but how many millions of people that depend on the fish and the protection of corals suffer?

  • wish they posted this earlier its 2 days late on post date

  • clevername333. I now see that you've had skeptical arguments, not always good ones, but anyway... E g your argument isn't valid on CO2 concentration; CO2 is a stronger GHG than H2O.

    I agree with your skeptical veiw, and you ask me "What thesis or point are you offering for debate?". Offering? Hopefully the truth. Your question shows you are not clever.

    Why do you say that my argument don't make sence. If your intelligence was normal you'd have understand my view and arguments.

  • clevername333. Climate models are falsified because of new knowledge on how climate works. E g PDO and AMO. NOAA scientists Compo and Sardeshmukh in a study 2008: "the most important conclusion ... is that the recent acceleration of global warming may not be occurring in quite the manner one might have imagined". Current climate models doesn't work they say.

    Why is >1000 ppm propaganda? It was warmer then. Heat caused higher CO2 rate, not the other way around; see Caillon et al, Science 2003.
