In this video, we explore why maintaining a healthy water cycle may be much more important for the health of the climate than people realize. In case you are wondering, I’m not suggesting that the greenhouse effect due to CO2 or methane is insignificant. But I do think that the importance of the water cycle has been grossly under-emphasized, and should occupy a more central position in environmental discourse.

About The Author
Just discovered your channel. You seem to create content that should be shown to more people. I'm commenting in the hopes that this will increase the likelihood of Google showing your videos to more people.
If people in rural areas saw this video, it might inspire some to attempt to restore ecosystems by planting native trees. It might even get communities to collectively buy farmland to restore for the benefit of the community. Maybe farmers would consider planting trees across some of the edges of the farmland.
Continue spreading knowledge. There is so much that could be done if the right people had the right knowledge.
Wow! Probably the best channel I've seen so far for this topic. Brings all the stuff down to an easy point, while I need half an hour patience from people to explain this systems to them.
Thankyou
GREAT VIDEOS!! Could you please make some more of Agriculture! 🙏🙌
Love your videos. Thanks!
This is absolutely great!
Please make more videos… these are awesome!! I'm definitely going to use your videos in my AP Environmental Science classes.
Climate change is a tool used to control us
does it have a warming effect or is it an insulative effect?
Here in Ca we ‘try’ to capture and re-purpose storm water but we’re terrible at it. 80% of everything captured evaporates or rolls back to the ocean. Maybe we’ll catch it next time, I doubt it.
00:46 Such an excellent point:
These events are not causes of climate change. These events ARE climate change.
IOW More and more things (like extreme flood and drought) are better understood not as causes but the facets of climate change.
We need to take action before to late. climate change is can affect our agriculture production. thats why we need to protect our Environment, Plants..
your videos are wonderful introductions. Interesting that a climate change flag is put underneath by the UN with a definitive statement refuting what you're saying. Can you cancel those flags? Why is the propaganda permitted?
I am currently working in land regeneration and rehabilitation, I never thought that I am helping the land heal but I moved into the profession after 10 years as a nurse and everyone told me "Oh, but you suit healing professions", looks like I went from one healing profession to another.
It doesn't work like that… Evaporation and precipitation are not at the same place.
" climate change " – climate is change. Help the earth heal? The earth isn't sick. The earth has experienced climate for millions and millions of years and doesn't need humans help. We humans can never destroy the earth nor can we save it 😮😅😅. Green house gas is why we have organic life here on earth 🌎. The globalist want to destroy our environment by convincing people that Green house gas is a bad thing 😮😅😅. We are capable of destroy humanity but earth 🌎 will be fine without us. You just can't fix Stupidity and there isn't a vaccine for it 🙄 😅😅😅
💯💚 #waterstories
when will mass agriculture be forced to change to regenerative practices ? can it be done before they destroy much of our continent ????
Thank you for pointing out scientific fact!
There are too and I mean too many people that try to simplify those to CO2
#bioticpump
love this
🤔
Great job you articulated the rather nuanced and lengthy paradigm that's also put forward by Walter Jehne. Jehne however offers that carbon is only 5% of the contributor to warming rather than 40% in this video. I wonder how the difference can be resolved.
