  1. I loved Dr. Mann's explanation. Sadly, I still think Fredericka was still confused as she repeated the same thing about "losing a second of our lives" even after Dr. Mann's clarification. I don't think she understands how arbitrary time is and how our practical measurement of it on Earth is based on our solar revolution.

  2. My question or comment is that CNN reports that the rotation of the earth will spead up and we will loose a second in the day's length. Isn't it the opposite that is the case? Ice on the poles melts, moves towards the equator, the speed will slow down and the day may become one second longer?

  3. OMG someone get this anchor a latte. Her commentary is inane, it's clear she's totally uniformed on the content of the segment, this is a small but fascinating piece of science to learn and think about. And then the framing of climate change – pitiful. It's the most significant issue of our time and she can't seem to think of a cogent conclusion for the conversation. This is one of the top 5 climate science researchers in the WORLD she's talking to…like would she talk to a president like this???

  4. The length of the day always gets changed and gets longer when winter passes and summer arrives day by day. What do they really mean by"Length of day changes" He didn't explain the concept of negative leap second, someone help me with this?

  5. Mr scientist, if the ice is melting then as per principles of physics the overall volume of water should go down because the density of ice is lower than water.

  6. The Earth's naturally occurring processes have always caused the slightest fluctuations in the actual time within a 'man-made' day if it is something caused by the Earth's natural processes. Humans made daylight savings time, which alters the perception of time. We just had leap year day too, indicating that time doesn't follow the man-made calendar. The climate of the planet has varied in the planets history: the ice age consisting of the past 2.6 Million years has had multiple glacial (cold) and interglacial (warm) times. We are in an interglacial time, would people really prefer to go back to a glacial period? The climate is going to do what the climate is going to do!

  7. The problem with the climate change debate is everyone is entrenched in partisan politics rather than accepting the fact both parties are right…the climate has always changed,its been melting since last ice age, volcanos, and we'll be fine if the caps melted its far better to have a warm planet than a cold one, taxing someone and reinventing your entire economy when other countries refuse to change isnt gonna fix anything…but you cant pump that much carbon into the atmosphere and expect to have no effect thats just asinine, you should strive to have less impact on your environment and try to live in harmony with it, were over populated its not a space thing its a resources/waste thing, if we were any other species wed be hunting us to curb the population we have nothing that keeps us in check, you cant expect to keep fucking like rabbits and expect no consequences youre an organism in an ecosystem…you can have gasoline cars etc u just cant have as many people….even water vapour is a green house gas…battery production is bad for environment also manufacturing of alot of these green technologies requires old tech/energy to produce…it doesnt matter what you do theres going to be some impact even dams and wind farms have their cons…there is no perfect thing…if were talking about here and now why arent we using nuclear? High speed electric trains instead of planes? Painting roads white and or having solar roads? Tidal power? What about a national funded programs to have tiny wind/solar technology on your house were applicable to take some strain off the grid and u get a rebate on taxes or u can sell it back to the grid whatever….i mean thers lots of things you can do…im pretty sure were all on board with not throwing trash out the window and dumping chemicals in rivers…if only everyone would just stfu and actually tried to solve the problem instead of claiming anyone with a different opinion is a threat to democracy and the bringer of the apocalypse

  8. By 1989 20 coutries were reporting their Weather Modification projects to the UN….the list has only grown. Is there 'climate change' or is the number of countries, going back to the 1970's, prposely changing weather patterns and results what they are calling "climate change"? And if countries around the world just stopped purposely changing he weather may there be an end to 'climate change'? Data from the World Meteorological Organization and the UN.

  9. President Donald Trump 2020

    The president will come out victorious in the American justice in all the courts that are held against him and above all a winner in the presidential elections of 2024 despite the war that is being waged against him

  10. I realize this is a global problem but Sensei this video is about pollution can Joe Biden and his Democrats at least recognize Chicago Illinois ever since the 30s because Lake Michigan just might be way too polluted in the future

  11. I guess we only effect the earths rotation buy burning fossil fuels, it has nothing to do with damning rivers to make large lakes or pumping water from underground to supply water for cities and irrigation. (Sorry but I think your environmentalists has a one track mind and there are many things man does that effect the environment)

  12. Climate change is a construct by Maurice Strong. Viewers should read up on the black hat that created this conspiracy theory. Tree rings are the historical record of climate change. The lab rats of America don't do their own research or critical thinking….so now we all get to suffer because of stupid.
