#RonnyChieng can’t dumb down climate change for you anymore #shorts

"It doesn't matter if sometimes it's cold in Cincinnati!"

Highlighting the crucial and often misunderstood difference between weather and climate

[kurtzwar]

Low education voters NEED Ronny Chieng every day. Science and graphs go together. Ignorance and slow boiling do not. Thanks so much Ronny!!!

[josephbelisle]

And this year is already breaking all records. Not just by a little. By a mind numbingly large number.

[nathansimons]

Ronny expressing how we all truly feel when confronted with willful ignorance.

[maxshields]

Thank you for articulating our frustration so well, Ronny.

[anthonycantu]

Love that!
"Even if you flip the chart upside down it's still going up!"
😅😅

[acharris]

Arguing with climate change deniers definitely feels like this

[cipherpac]

Ronny has the most charismatic and entertaining rage of anyone working today I swear

[Brewsy]

This clip lives rent free in my head all these years later.

Even if you flipped the chart upside down….a truly legendary move 😂

If people keep telling me about the cold, there’s no such thing as global warming. I’ll just point them. I live in the East Coast where I’m used to snow every year now I’m lucky if I get to see it it’s still a problem.

[thomasgallipoli]

Flipped the chart and still demonstrated that it’s going up.
Ronny is a comedy genius!
Then when the chart didn’t break, he did it again.
Daily Show has the best comedians on cable.

Headbutting that chart is the most literal way I have ever seen anyone fight climate change.

Mr. Chieng's griping demeanor is always very funny.

[akc]

The climate screamers' usage of El Nino events to prove their point will really come back and bite them, when the temperatures start going down shortly, giving climate change deniers endless supply of ammunition.

On the other hand, nuance isn't a part of the preferred online discourse.

So. Headboard smash it is. 🙌

For people with little education, no critical thinking skills, and stopped learning anything decades ago, it must really hurt to use their brain. Like when your leg "goes to sleep, " and you try to walk. Pins and needles!

My dad has believed for decades that climate change is real, but still denies it's man made

[mckaylapaddock]

My mom is MAGA conservative, but trusts me on science and specifically climate change because I studied it in college and have explained it very well to her. Sadly, she is also certain that the climate change deniers on her side are just ill informed because the information just isn't easily available. She even suggested I personally write Trump a letter explaining it to him🙄

I keep trying to explain, information is out there, but FOR SOME REASON her media sources and politicians keep acting like it isn't 😤 I told her, they've had it explained to them. All they have to do is watch any left leaning source that has discussed the issue, and all they're questions and misconceptions would be explained. They are choosing to ignore it, misrepresent it, and blatantly lie to people like her.

I know it's just humour but hardly anyone denies that climate change itself is happening. Some people are simply sceptical of 1) the extent to which humans, and specifically CO2 emissions, are to blame, and/or 2) how catastrophic the consequences will be, especially considering a long track record of failed predictions dating back at least 50 years and/or 3) whether "net zero" plans and other green policies are worth the cost (not only economic but also political) or will be at all effective, if they're even feasible. and/or 4) the credibility of famous climate activists who frequently make dire predictions that, to climate sceptics who are familiar with the research and scientific publications on climate change, appear to be only loosely related to the far more modest claims of most scientists and/or 5) the reliability of long term models to predict not only the rate of climate change itself but also the consequences that it will have, considering the extreme complexity of the Earth's climate and the fact that errors accumulate as we look further into a hypothetical future (which scepticism is, for some, reinforced by the experience of the Covid-19 crisis during which some models published by prestigious institutions turned out to wildly overestimate the scale of the pandemic).

If you want to engage with climate sceptics, as you probably should if you think they're wrong on this important topic and you think you're qualified enough to have that conversation, it is important that you address their genuine doubts. Pointing out the obvious won't help. Those who deny the obvious won't change their mind.

I wish more people were this passionate about informing others about Climate Change and what we can do to reduce our impact.
