190 countries agree to climate change rulebook at UN climate conference | DW News

Optimists are hailing a climate agreement reached at the Poland climate conference, but skeptics fear it’s far too reliant on voluntary cooperation and does nothing to reduce fossil fuel consumption. Especially 15-year-old Swede Greta Thunberg caused a stir with her compelling speech

Will the outcome of the conference be enough to slow down global climate change?

@1:03 they start talking about pollution and show a photograph of a nuclear power plant producing nothing but Steam but those big puffy white clouds look awfully bad don't they

Why do people think they need the world leaders to change things. Since when has that ever worked

[Wilmohur]

Birth control is the best way to fight against the global warming, poowerty, violemce, contamination, unemployment and many other problems

It’s more relevant to talk about pollution & environmental damage & its direct impact to human life rather than climate change. Climate change by natural is unstoppable. It was happened since billions of years ago. Iceberg melting or global warming are not just happened today during coal & oil era, but it was also happened since long long time ago. Dinosaurs were never used oil or coal in their daily activities but the climate change was happening too.
It’s too early to fully blaming climate change as a result of human actions because this impact is too little. The main factor of climate change in my opinion is the shift in polar magnetic field and other natural behavior of the earth such as volcanic eruption, etc. The air pollution from volcanic eruption around the world for example is more significant than air pollution from human actions.
However, this is not to conclude that human related pollution is ignorable. I just want to highlight that our main issue is environmental damages due to human actions and these have to be handled seriously to protect human life. Whether or not human related environmental damage has becoming the key factor causing global warming &climate change, that is strongly still debatable. Do we think that if people don’t use oil/coal at all then the climate will never change? For me, whether or not climate change due to human actions is true, for sure I totally agree that human related environmental damage has to be mitigated and stopped anyway for better human life without waiting for the proof on the climate change.

I saw the way when i saw those glass water glass on the presidents desk and others. Lol what a joke

We are inhaling CO2 at the ambient 400ppm and exhaling at 40, 000ppm, still low enough to resuscitate a person during CPR, in spite of 100 fold increased concentration. That should give you some idea about human tolerated CO2 concentration range. In spite of 100-fold inhale to exhale ratio, still usable in rescue another being. Submarines maintain CO2 at 9, 000ppm for months at a time. CO2 is also very active in plants growth, with greenhouses using CO2 at 1200-1600ppm to show 30-45% biomass bulk increase. CO2, along with water vapor keep the earth 35 Deg F warmer, allowing life to flourish. The idea CO2 is a pollutant has been spread to induce panic under the name of carbon pollution

Lol climate change is a joke, plant trees

[georgehallamalltreedup]

Do some homework they go n inspect old oil wells twenty years after they tap them out n they r miraculously filled with oil again...lol ...hummmm....i wonder how that could be???? Lololol
