Has no one noticed he completely mischaracterizes photosynthesis by leaving out water? Also, plants don't "mix" any thing together with sunlight.

I have an idea to fix (or at least improve) the problem we have with CO2.
Every building with a flat roof should have tons of plants planted on it, and then people should collect the CO2 and put it into the plants (only a little, the rest of the CO2 for the plants would come from the atmosphere). Over time, people would be pushed to get new roofs with plants on them, even if they have a normal roof. This may not do much, but it sure helps.

One of the things I do to help the environment is to use printing papers that are printed on one side as scrap papers (using the blank side). THIS METHOD SAVES A LOT OF TREES!

[riderlibertas]

What bugs me is that we know what the problem is and how to fix it but it's not being taken seriously enough because it interferes with the game of whoever has the most money wins.

This is the greatest call to action for climate change and it's perfect for kids. I hope schools around the country start showing this.

Cool video; the narrator has a great sense of optimism for a sustainable future that I can only envy. I like this outlook on the climate crisis because it focus on what we are capable of as a planet rather than this idea of impeding doom that I think a lot of young people today feel and I can somewhat relate to. I hope his attitude can inspire lots of people, because to create a future that we can live in, we first have to be optimistic about these ideas.

Good video;

They should make another video that responds to common misconceptions people have also

[quietthomas]

Switching from logging to hemp would be a good start!

[Randomnations]

3:25 but biogas and biofuels emits CO2.

Why there was an eye on america in the end ?

[bazza]

why does everything looked baked out of their minds

In other words, the coming generations must form a new system that is not dependable on profit. Profit must become a vain concept in our society, but how to achieve this is another matter. It appears to be so that every major change on society is achievable only via revolution and momentary chaos.
