At the UN Climate Change Conference in Paris, world leaders agreed that climate change is an urgent threat -- cementing green energy production as a new frontier of innovation. VICE takes an in-depth look at the future of how we make and use energy, and how we can meet growing demand as we cut carbon emissions.

That kid is so happy to be able to show to world his work man , he's smiling throughout the entire thing haha

Anyone else to step up and make this change before we are like annihilated? (Raises hand). Oh and I didn't want to mess with the 69 like vibe :) I liked it from within, now all us people on the same page "get some you know what around the you know what". Damn I'm so glad to see actual intelligence other than trolls nowadays. Deniers are Dodo birds. GO PLANET EARTH!!! Woo Hoo. Life may last 200 years instead of 100. Faith.

Molten salt reactors(Thorium reactors) are in our current future. Thank God this kid/young man is trying to bring about that change.

@bobrolander4344 6 лет назад

Before you get all rosie: Donald Trump is still president. And the Democrats just caved and gave him and Mitch McConnel EVERYTHING they want. Thousands of people who grew up in the USA are going to be FORCEFULLY, VIOLENTLY DEPORTED into countries they've never even seen. Remember: DEMOCRATS are appeasing to a facist government. Democrats are paid by SuperPACs to lose. Lose on immigration. Lose on renewable energy. Obama & Clinton were PRO fracking. They said one thing, only to turn around and DO THE OPPOSITE. *#whereisthechange****?*

The media is full with information about climate change, and renewable energies, but every single time new content is created, and every single time that content is watched, we are one step closer of making it a reality... Thank you for another great video on the biggest problem of our generation!

@cesarcarlosventura 7 лет назад

20:30 he loved that analogy haha

@KtotheL 4 года назад

incredible man and im glad we are that much closer. seeing this today is a renewal of hope... i have been down for the past 3 yrs ( bad accident ) and its been tough for me instead of being and living 3--5 yrs in the future now living that far behind. im glad someone out there cares to do what i no longer can

@rachellejanssen2655 6 лет назад

@V1RU5Zuk 7 лет назад

For those interested, the outro music is; Jesen (drop Dopers Extended Mix) by Sara Renar (also this video gives me great hope for the progress with green energy in the near future).

@shaegrover9516 7 лет назад

This video was posted in July but the video taken is from well over a year ago. The telsas are the old models. The tacomac for Fusion energy in France is already built. This was filmed late 2015 early 2016. Why did it take over a year to post?

@L33tSkE3t 4 года назад

I really hope we can figure out how to get net positive energy out of fusion soon.

@boharihamen 7 лет назад

Bravo Bravo. The best video on RU-vid by far.

@bobrolander4344 6 лет назад

Are you really sure? What are we going to do with the masses who think Trump is a genius? What are we going to do with the masses who still don't understand how corrupt the Clintons and Obamas are? What are we going to do with CNN, who didn't once make the connection between Harvy, Maria, Irma and Climate Change? Too many lose ends. Our societies are still operating under philosophies of the 18th Century. Nihilism, Relativism, Postmodernism. Famine, Wars, Pollution, Corruption, Greed. Capitalism is still racing us all towards our death. Next stop: Extinction.

@justinwaugh4377 7 лет назад

Thorium. Bigger, better, faster, stronger, SAFER energy.

@JDfabricacations 7 лет назад

justin waugh Norway were experimenting with thorium years ago, they must have ran out of funding. Thorium can sustain us for the next 30,000 years I don't see why we aren't moving forward with it.

@justinwaugh4377 7 лет назад

Hell, one handful of the material could sustain a human beings home, vehicle, and livelihood with clean safe energy. and when that human being dies, that handful of Thorium could STILL be used for hundreds of years later for someone else. Mankind has always, and always will, overlook our issues. trying to use drastic measures to fix drastic issues, when in reality we can use whats sitting on the table in front of us. small hometown owners of mines all across the united states dump their thorium because not a lot of people buy it. one small mine could run the fucking planet off of what they think is just a useless rock. but america is too focused on what we already invested in. (solar panels, wind turbines, ect)

@paulswanee5855 7 лет назад

More important than thorium is molten salt.

@IJoeAceJRI 6 лет назад

thorium is an element. Molten salt is, well, molten sodium or table salt

@yoits90slizzle41 7 лет назад

this is the type of kid the government doesnt want you to know about

@WesternScienceUSA 6 лет назад

That kid is book smart but he's exactly what the government wants he's stuck on hot fusion b.s when we know cold fusion can be made in a pickle jar for pennies compared to hot fusion GIANT LASERS millions... My over unity diaries shows several ways to get more energy out then in my favorite methods are pulsing electro-magnets and water engines a.k.a H.H.0 engines.. Hydrogen is 5 times more explosive then gasoline and what is in water hydrogen and oxygen if you pulse the water instead of constant current you magically use far less energy to extract the hydrogen (Advanced Electrolysis) I'm really who the government is scared of.

@eganzale 6 лет назад

Those types of people in general end up dead by "accident, natural causes, or random assassination" just like the guy that figured out how to run a car engine on water years before even electric cars/hybrids started to get mass produced.

@aaron___6014 6 лет назад

Really? I know about him now and so do the 400k others who've seen the video. University researchers like him are all over the global. And does it really matter when people and locations are already dedicated to fusion reactions?

@InfinitePaige 7 лет назад

I loved this documentary because I live in the heart of natural gas/coal mining and never seen so much change in the weather/nature all together before 😩

@k-mar9587 7 лет назад

Fusion is great but soo hard. Lets keep on pushing on newer fission Projects as well or better first. That may be easier to achieve and sooner to implement.

@TRINITYIMPERAT 7 лет назад

When Dr. Cowley in the end of video was talking about getting half a gigawatt once we have a sustained fusion burn did he mean out of that tiny reactor or from something the size of ITER??

@SoCalFreelance 7 лет назад

What we desperately need is leadership who will spend $600 billion a year on science and technology instead of war. And oh, by the way, our nation withdrew from the Paris Agreement on June 1st, thanks Trump 😞

@joesantos99 7 лет назад

SoCalFreelance agreed

@brittanyb.7781 7 лет назад

I'm so tired of hearing Trump ramble and for that matter, so many other politicians. People voted for him b/c he "wasn't" a political figure...um, let's start defining that by how hard the person is trying to fool the audience based upon how much of their plans they are trying to hide from them...

@manofsesame3024 6 лет назад

The Paris agreement is a joke and fraud anyway

@lopezb 6 лет назад

Absolutely. And FOX news and other propaganda outlets convince too many uneducated idiots (like Trump himself) that global warming doesn't exist. And both Putin and Trump are deniers....they are leading our planet to destruction. The Repubs are essentially all corrupt and all ignorant about basic facts. These midterms are of absolutely critical importance to begin to restore sanity.

We have a generation of egocentric millennials that think the world evolves around the kardashians, this kid should be the rolemodel and inspiration to all of them.

@Lions4322 7 лет назад

cyb Many do, many don't. The problem is rather that the dumb millennials are too vocal on social media and create that exact illusion.

@jacob.g.l1592 7 лет назад

Lions4322 Fuck off with that dumb millennial shit.

@Lions4322 7 лет назад

I reckon that you might be one of them, Pigeonboyy. Why else would a person get mad due to a harmless comment of that caliber on the internet?

@brittanyb.7781 7 лет назад

Lions4322, it seems people want someone or some generation to blame for NOT "saving us". But, it's still the responsibility of able individuals to create forward change, no matter the generation...

@gregmccauley1687 7 лет назад

They are incredibly dishonest about the cost of solar. The CEO of SolarCity says you can install it for very cheap, sure, because it's subsidized by taxpayers. It still costs more.

@garysarela4431 7 лет назад

Greg, over the last century, renewable energy has received less than 2% of what fossil fuels have received from the government as subsidies. Also, Fossil fuels need to have a carbon tax placed on them to reflect the long term damage they are causing to society.

@garysarela4431 7 лет назад

Mark, I don't know how anyone equates automation to communism. A bit like comparing apples to bicycles. What Elon is doing is definitely capitalism. I got the impression you are for capitalism.
