Explaining Carbon Neutrality | Sustainability

ACCIONA presents a video about the process and merits of reaching carbon neutrality. The need for carbon neutrality is dire now that the relationship between emissions of greenhouse gases and climate change is a scientific certainty. The world will reach carbon neutrality when it reduces its net carbon emissions equal zero. For this to be possible, we must reduce our dependence on energy derived from fossil fuels, improve the efficiency of our energy processes, and invest in sustainable development.

What a bunch of CRAP . Putting humanity back to the stone age, by 2050.

Is the idea: There are only a set amount of carbon credits each year and if you buy extra from one business, then they would not be able to pollute as much (assuming they don’t buy extra credits of their own if any are left in circulation that year), and if someone goes over the carbon limits they pay a fine?

Wouldn’t it be efficient to just permanently shut down most big polluters; and impose high taxes on all fossil fuels that we rely on now but plan to phase out; and provide a heavily subsidised green power (not just solar, but miniature hydro, geo thermal, and kinetic too).

If it was that bad it shouldn’t be a “choice” to do the right thing.

I loved your video! We just built a net zero carbon apartment building for operations. We are working on ways to reduce, and offset the carbon involved in the construction of our buildings.

[varakavasanto]

they are still keep burning more coals in big factory in my country, releasing carbon into the air, I dont see any actions against them, I am very concern about the climate in the area as we experience its changes and becomes harsher to us and to our crops and cattles. which we used to have nicer and better weather in the area seasonally. But now it is unpredictably.

[deathamata]

ah yes selling Co2 over seas really solves the offset issue. last i checked trees turn Co2 into oxygen, the stuff we breath?

Thank you for making this video
I have H°W to tell what is CARBON NUTRIALITY, pls do not mind my spelling 😅 and thank u for helping me😊🤗

[fungamelove]

Thank you for making this video about carbon neutrality, It really helped me a lot :)

Good but tough to understand, It can be more lucid.

This video has the United Nations Climate Change disclaimer. The cause of global warming is not know in 2024. Global warming was officially stated at 1.1°C in 1991 and 1.06°C in 2022. Global warming has been staled at about 1°C since 1992.

Increasing average global temperatures are greatly meaningless to modern human lives not eliciting concern. In the early 1980s to promote the need to prepare for increasing average global temperatures the term Climate Change was given for the already known prediction of stronger Gulf of Mexico hurricanes when global warming reached 1.5°C on track to take place in 2010. That required stronger Gulf of Mexico oil platform design and builds talking place in the 1970s.

This was qualifiedly a change in human activity that is in some sense due to a change in climate or Climate Change. There was also expected increasing sea levels from warmer expanding sea water. The term Climate Change is much more attention provoking than the term Global Warming even though no credible Climate Change, and very minimal at that, would take place until global warming reached 1.5°C.

There were no plausible mechanisms from the current science in 1980 that could cause increasing average global temperatures. In the 1950s earth’s atmosphere had been greatly studied and the characteristics of its major gases greatly understood. Earth’s saturated greenhouse effect from water vapor adding 10°F (5.55°C) to earth’s average temperature was well known. In was taught in 1970s US public science education.

It is scientifically impossible for greenhouse gas behavior to cause global warming. All the greenhouse radiant energy from the earth is completely absorbed in earth's greenhouse effect by greenhouse gases within 20 meters of the radiating surface that is always in saturation from the strong greenhouse gas water vapor.

The back of the United Nation's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) science report states it took its greenhouse gas samples at 20, 000 meters altitude where it is common high school level knowledge there is no greenhouse radiant energy. This is typical practice for deceptive marketing to state legal data transparency protecting the perpetrators from fraud prosecution. The IPCC has been transparent with its data acknowledging it is not dealing with active greenhouse gases.

Earth's greenhouse effect is frequently used as a primary example to high school students of a system always in saturation from the strong greenhouse gas water vapor absorbing all the greenhouse radiant energy from the earth with greenhouse gases within 20 meters of the radiating surface that is all around us everyday and can't have its overall effect changed. There is no further greenhouse radiant energy to interact with greenhouse gases.

At 1% average tropospheric water vapor over 99% of earth’s greenhouse effect is from water vapor. Water vapor would hold earth's greenhouse effect in saturation if it were the only greenhouse gas in the atmosphere. The overall average temperature gain to the earth from the earth’s greenhouse effect is 5.55°C (10°F).

Arctic warming is taking place with the proving mechanism being warm Atlantic Ocean waters migrating deeper and more frequently into the Arctic Ocean warming it and the region. That warmer water is causing a few weeks less of reflective snow and ice coverage resulting in more solar heat gain to the Arctic region surface.

Atmospheric CO2 levels of 1200 ppm about three times what they are today would greatly invigorate C3 plants the majority of plant life on earth greatly greening the planet.

0.4% of the atmosphere is CO2 and on average 1% is H20 water vapor. (1% H20)/(0.4% CO2) = 25. Water vapor is 25 times more present in the atmosphere on average than CO2. Water vapor has an CO2e of 18, 18 X 25 = 450 CO2e total for water vapor to 1 CO2e for CO2.

The Earth’s oceans have 3-1/2 million sea floor volcanic vents warming the water and changing it’s chemistry that have not been systematically accounted for.

Thank you for your video! It is short and helpful! Very informative in a short amount of time. Good to educate on carbon neutrality!

[이태민-wp]

I learned about the direction we should be heading for carbon neutrality and the government's efforts.

Thanks for explaining that "carbon neutral" is a total lie. That figures.

[Avidcomp]

Scam. Ever wondered why they keep saying "net"?

[notetoiris]

Going vegan, eating seasonal and local would definitely help with our personal carbon footprint.

[manson]

Thanks for the vedio it's really helping

[kakashi]

Carbon neutrality means emitting enough carbon so that the earth’s carbon sinks (trees and plants, oceans) can absorb them, thus making the net emission zero. It wasn’t explained in the video.

[OZMus]

If this was coordinated 7 years ago why does it only have 30+ comments?

[OZMus]

This is great in theory. Where is the practical application?

[stevendiego]

Carbon Monoxide, CO is bad, Mercury is bad too and Lead is bad too 😣 💨
