  1. Climate change is another problem that's so easy to solve it's infuriating. We just have to agree to stop letting these companies make money on fosil fuels, and ivest all their earnings into renewable energy. We have enough space to have enough nuclear, solar, wind and hydro power to export power to other countries. We could be the first country to export electricity but nah, we out here driving life sized rc cars and dino juice trucks just because Rex Tillerson and all his buddies just NEED the latest 50 ft yacht. It would go so perfectly with his new Maclaren! And what are we supposed to do? Not let him have a personal fleet of yatchs, cars and aircraft? He signs like SO many papers yall. It's like. Only he could do it. We don't have the brains to put writing stick on flat not phones

  2. I was watching season 4 of the original teenage mutant ninja turtles with my kid the other day, and the episode was about climate change and global warming.. and i was like, wwwhhhhhhhaaaaattt. They knew back then?!?!?! And we still didn't do nothing about it.

  3. Didn't Biden offer 144,000 acres of land for drilling in 2022, predominantly in Wyoming? This is reported on Politifact, which estimates that drilling will continue until 2050. Most importantly, the media (and this piece) isn't raising questions on it, but they are speculating on what Trump "may" do after he becomes President. Why isn't there scathing criticism on Biden's policies? I would also find it funny to poke fun at Biden backtracking on his environmental policies, but it might annoy audiences, so I get why that might have been cut in the Daily Show's script. In sum, both sides want to destroy the planet, not just one.

  4. This is the danger of electing an octogenarian: he doesn't care about the future that is about to start, as even if he lives when the tsunami waves wash away Florida, he will be deep into the final stages of dementia.

  5. Scientists haven't been trying to warn us for 50 years, they have been trying to warn us for a century and a half. Eunice Newton Foote drafted her paper on the relationship with carbon dioxide and the temperature back in 1856 but she was not allowed to publish her work since she was a woman.

  6. There might no longer be video games and animes for a lot of people in an unsustainable and inhospitable world. 🙁😔

    No more civilization as we know it. And worst-case, apocalyptic scenarios due to Climate Change might lead to worldwide societal collapse and force some humans to live in tribes in a matter of survival.

  7. 1:44 They indulge in this kind of smug condescension, and then they wonder why Trump won. “You don’t want to take the bus to work” means “We don’t care about the sacrifices our agenda would demand of you.” Let’s see Joe Biden take the bus instead of the presidential motorcade, scrap Air Force One and fly coach, and move from the White House to a one-room, energy efficient mini-cabin, and then I’ll be willing to change my lifestyle to fight climate change.

  8. Let’s see environmentalists put their money where their mouth is and work to expand our nuclear power infrastructure, since that would reduce greenhouse gas emissions better than anything else . . . oh wait, they’ve run a smear campaign against nuclear power for 60 years.

  10. Major disruptions, suffering and extinctions in existing ecosystems 😔😔😢 — rising sea levels, melting glaciers and ice sheets, and warming oceans can directly harm animals, destroy the places they live, and wreak havoc on people's livelihoods and communities. More deadlier pandemics, longer droughts, more frequent, destructive hurricanes.
