Casually Explained: The Carbon Scale 

"this video telling the average person to cut down on waste in sponsored by one of the richest couples in the world"

@@EpicStuffMan1000 yeah no he clearly stated that it's not reducting waste that is the main solution...

@What's the point. No objections on the jets. but I wouldn't be surprised if his properties are carbon neutral (or maybe even carbon negative), and tech has enabled people to work from home, cutting down a lot on carbon emissions.

@What's the point. fairly sure being the largest charity in all of the Americas offsets their carbon footprints just a tad, don't you?

my exact reaction

The funny Part is that Bill and Melinda have Private jets etc.. so its kinda hypocrisy to sponsor a Video like this

@@Fechtenundich Yes, they should instead spend billions trying to save the world, but take a sailboat to each of their meetings across the world, as long as they plan a few months ahead.

​@@Fechtenundich That's a dumb take. First of all, they put a lot of effort and money into philanthropy to fight global issues... more than enough to make up for their lifestyles, which aren't that extravagant to begin with compared to other rich celebrities. Second of all, the whole message of the letter & this video seems to be emphasizing the need for systemic change (e.g. renewable energies cutting the carbon emissions of all your electronics down to near-zero) rather than individual choices (plastic straws).

@@benf8487 I think you replied to the wrong comment my dude

@@benf8487 i agree that China has to do more, but saying we shouldn't do anything because China emits more CO2 is the complete wrong argument

While it's true third world countries have less of an impact on global emissions right now the developing nations will soon catch up if the first world doesn't help them develop in a sustainable way. So yes I agree but I think you could have phrased it better

@@benf8487 I don't know if you replied to the right comment chain but let me just rebut this statement here; Per capita is the only meaningful measurement to refer to in the context of this video since it's talking about the footprint of a person. On larger scale too per capita is far from misleading since it shows where the concentration of emissions is. The global emissions are multiple orders of magnitude more concentrated in USA rather than China for example. And that is absolutely a point we have to consider. The amount of people in a country should provide the baseline for the allowed CO2 emissions and right now the USA is a far bigger offender than China taken that absolute truth into consideration.

I don't think anybody would

Wait... so he's legit sponsored by them.. No joke.. 🤔

Global depopulation agenda scare people from,breathing get them,in government welfare programs.

He's probably still like OMG

I didn't either, I thought it was a joke

Not to mention lots and lots of sheep) They certainly produce more than New Zeland's coal.

Of course on the grand scale of things it makes no difference whether that coal is burned in NZ or China. That is just politics, NZ gets to claim to be a clean country while profiting from coal mining and air polution anyway. It's like Norway boasting about their renewable energy that they pay for by selling their oil.

@@BigUriel yep, but "clean country" sounds better than "enabler"

Sérgio Alves can extreme consumerist countries really claim to be carbon friendly when all their carbon emissions are shifted to producers like china

That's like being a pacifist arms dealer

@@Xhalph They do sponsorships for a lot of renewable-focused videos.

Same. Maybe bill and Melinda could try and convince themselves and their friends to pay their fare share of taxes so we can get a better public transportation infrastructure. How many kgs of CO2 could we save? They have enough money to pay for the whole of it, if we are honest.

Citation- Bill Gates, in casually explained video. Seriously, though, many "citations" are just citing something someone wrote without any citations.

Citation: "I analyze casually explained videos frame by frame"

He watched his stock market video

He illegally exploited his monopoly in PC operating systems to crush competitors, and then used his obscene fortune to attempt to whitewash his reputation through the Bill and Melinda Gates foundation, in some sort of marketing exercise, and a tax dodge.

@@MrRipple123 [citation needed]

I love electric cars, have one right now, but we can't disregard how much carbon goes into making them. I've not heard a single good source claim that they take the same amount of co2 as an ICE vehicle, like the video seems to state. EVs take much more carbon to produce. They only become a net positive if they are driven for a a good amount of years, depending on what generates your electricity. For ex: states in the US that burn mostly coal, it is actually worse to have an EV than an ICE car. My biggest problem is people buying new EVs every few years which is NOT good for the environment. You have to keep driving for usually at least 5-7 years of 0 emissions or else you're no better than a pickup truck driver.

@@epiphany271 No part of electric car making releases CO2 except the factory workers' breath.

@@epiphany271 "For example, states in the U.S that burn mostly coal is actually worse to have an EV than an ICE car." Can you explain why exactly? I don't know much about the CO2 emissions, and want to know why it matters what other people are doing, and how it affects your own emissions.

@@phabiorules Basically, manufacturing a traditional gas-powered car requires less energy (less work needs to be done) and less costly materials (electric motors and high-capacity batteries require materials that are really bad for the environment to mine) than an electric car. The upside is that electric vehicles don't directly release pollution into the atmosphere because they run on electricity, unlike the exhaust of a combustion engine. However, that electricity has to be produced by local power plants. In areas that use a lot of nonrenewable energy, that means that the amount of pollution produced by the power plant to recharge your electric car can be greater than the pollution created by a traditional car burning gas.

@@Alex-0597 thanks for the easy to understand explanation.

Here in Southeast Asia, nobody ever uses/installs heating nor cooling except for the exceptionally rich people with huge mansions. We just fix the temperature problem with shitty loud fans and I think that's pretty neat, also presents some sort of challenge.

@@plaecholder absolutely it will

Money well spent

Real talk. Now on to figuring out how we can accelerate the transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy.

Not really, what to take away is individual changes we can do today can make a huge change. Most people could drop their CO2 emissions by 75 percent in a few months, no intervention from the state needed.

@@SweBeach2023 That literally directly contradicts the point he made in the video that for the most part a person living in the "first world" can't drop their energy consumption below half of the average.

@@SweBeach2023 it's quite cool and all but it would affect everyones lifestyle, not neccesarily positively either. It shaves just 25% off of the co2 emission of individuals which is itself at most just 20% of the total emission. The total change would then be at the very highest a 5% and at the lowest, just less than 1% decrease in global co2 emission for a radical change in lifestyle which itself may come with its own host of unique problems. Even in a more realistic scenario where this decrease in co2 is coupled with others such as energy generation and transportation, the "individuals" part of the pie chart can only truly be used to put a cherry on the cake or to finish the final step before the finish line.

Or just make something to eat the Co2 up and convert it to something useful.

Maybe they are Canadians and they're just being polite.

*Yeah, the sponsor has NO influence at all on the video*

Truly, Casually Explained owes much of his channel's success to Bill way before this video.

Yet he still can´t tell if a girl is into him.

Some of those cups are recyclable though, while straws never seem to be

@@nataliemdesouza very rarely

@@nataliemdesouza The turtle thing is overblown because of a video of a turtle snorting one. The problem is that plastic straws aren't recyclable so even if you put them in the recycling, they get sorted out and tossed in the landfill where they don't degrade, or they end up in the ocean where sunlight breaks them down into the nutritious microscopic plastic fragments we get to eat later in our sushi. Most animals won't eat something that doesn't taste like food, but incidental swallowing happens often enough, especially when the pieces are small. What I don't get is why y'all motherfuckers even drink from straws in the first place.

Paper straws are man's inhumanity to man

Not really, the Vlogbrothers have been working with the Gates for a while, I bet others have too, it's probable good marketing for them to sponsor a few RU-vidrs. Gotta hold up that good reputation so no one notices that Microsoft made its money exploiting child labor in third world countries, partnering with oil companies and doing everything to evade taxes. If the Gates really want do help, they could, they have literally enough money to swing elections and end homelessness, instead they put a fraction of that stolen wealth into charity and vanity projects.

And immigrants don't get special treatment from the government. In fact, they get considerably less than the average American. All that stuff about free healthcare, driver's license and a business is misleading bullshit that is about as trust worthy as anything coming out of a Communist's mouth.

@@roberteischen4170 You simply sound low IQ, you haven't thought this through to its final conclusion. If you don't trust communists then great, but you must recognize that this Marxist threat does not end there. They want no more white people, no free thinkers, no more families - feminism was a targeted attack at the white family - you say "liberated" women are more likely to have children, maybe - but they are less likely to be asked to become wives. Young men are not interested in marrying used goods, and so we enter the realm of fatherless households, divorce being normalized etc We are witnessing the decline, strong empires do not glorify the murder of the unborn or the whoredom of their women - they certainly do not allow men in little hats to cease the reigns of power and ethnically replace them.
