Explaining Middle School Science To MAGA

Added: 2026-06-01

[00:00:00]During the Jurassic period when it had the highest CO2 levels >> I don't want to live in the Jurassic period though, bro. You couldn't live into the Jurassic period. You would die.

[00:00:08]You would die there. You would die. I don't want to live there. I don't want to live in the Jurassic period. You would die.

[00:00:17]>> Quite frankly, you need to subscribe to Renyald.

[00:00:21]>> Glad I could explain that to you, big dog. Is this the same guy that I just brought up? Am I insane? Hey, what's up, buddy?

[00:00:26]>> Yeah, you're probably insane because I'm not the same guy. Okay. I'm just wondering, you know, all these usernames, they kind of blend together.

[00:00:33]What's going on, buddy?

[00:00:35]>> Yeah, I mean, I'm kind of regretting my vote for Trump. I think we should all vote for Democrats. I mean, we could uh >> you I think we should put back all the policies of the Green New Deal. I mean, sadly, we'll only have six more years of life because according to AOC, we only had 12 years before the world was destroyed. But yeah, I say we go back to Democrats and maybe we can get all our pronouns in line because I mean that's the that's the philosophy of Democrats.

[00:01:01]>> You are literally the meme, bro. You are literally the meme.

[00:01:04]>> Yeah, I'm the meme, right?

[00:01:05]>> So crazy. I won't vote for Democrats because of their pronouns, bro.

[00:01:10]>> Well, no. I literally sat there and told you about the Green New fake deal, right? And I I find it interesting that all the talking point >> Yeah, that's what it is.

[00:01:18]>> When was the Green New Deal proposed? It was a fake. Oh, let me let me try it this way. Do you believe this when that was proposed? Let me try it this way because obviously you don't know what I'm referring to. So, let me try it this way. Do you believe global warming and global I don't know, climate change is a real thing? Do do you think this was going to be obvious existential threat is obviously true. Yes.

[00:01:42]>> Right. Right. Right.

[00:01:42][clears throat and snorts] So, you think uh greenhouse gases was going to I don't know destroy the world.

[00:01:47]>> Um destroy the world. It depends on how you're framing it, right? It's not going to literally blow the world up, but it's it's going to make Earth very much so like less pleasant to tap it, right?

[00:01:57]>> Really?

[00:01:58]>> Yeah. Obviously. Yeah.

[00:01:59]>> So, you think cow farts was going to destroy the world like it was >> I mean, I could hold your hand through it and explain it because apparently your time going through middle school trying to explain the carbon cycle to you.

[00:02:08]>> Oh, okay. What's What's the current uh carbon What is it parts per million currently today?

[00:02:14]>> I don't know. Oh, so it's 400 parts 420 parts per million.

[00:02:20]>> What is the Yeah. What is the optimal level of CO2 for plant life including uh photosynthesis? What is it?

[00:02:27]>> Why Why would I >> Well, if you're saying if it's your position >> Wait, you understand that you're literally like the optimal level of CO2 for plant growth is not the same as the optimal level of CO2 for the atmosphere.

[00:02:39]Right.

[00:02:40]>> Right. Right. And what percentage of Do you understand that?

[00:02:42]>> I don't know.

[00:02:43]>> Yeah. What percentage of CO2 is in the atmosphere?

[00:02:46]>> I could go Google it if you want me to.

[00:02:48]>> Oh, why do you have to Google it? I mean, if you're saying it's time, >> I mean, this is very obvious.

[00:02:55]>> It's because it's very obvious.

[00:02:56]>> 04%.

[00:02:58]>> So, I think you should know this. I mean, >> if you're such a If you were so wor and wait, didn't you just sit here and tell me that I'm not educated because I don't know cycle?

[00:03:08]>> Yeah, you clearly.

[00:03:08]>> Didn't you just tell me that I don't know what the carbon cycle is? Do you know what the CO2 sequestering limit is?

[00:03:14]>> You just told me that you know what the CO2 sequestering limit is. Yet you don't know what the current yet I don't know the exact parts per billion percentage of CO2 in the atmosphere. Yeah, true.

[00:03:23]You got me, buddy. So, I just don't know what the level. Do you know what the CO2 sequestering? Do you know what the CO2 sequestering limit is?

[00:03:30]>> No. No. Hold on a second. And you don't know what the CO2 sequestering limit is?

[00:03:35]>> CO2 is for planet.

[00:03:36]>> I don't know the specific numbers. No, I don't. You're right. Do you want Do you want to tell me what the CO2 sequestering number? No, you you're answering my question. Can you tell me what the CO2 sequestering limit is?

[00:03:46]>> Can you tell me what the CO2 sequestering limit is?

[00:03:48]>> Level CO2. Can >> you tell me what the CO2 sequestering limit is?

[00:03:51]>> Wait, wait. What is the minimum?

[00:03:53]>> You're going to answer my question. Can you tell me what the CO2 sequestering limit is?

[00:03:58]>> You couldn't answer three of mine.

[00:04:00]>> I literally answered I literally answered all of them. So, Do you know what Do you know what the CO2 sequestering limit is? Do >> you know what the CO2 sequestering limit is?

[00:04:09]>> If you're more well versed, you should be able to answer.

[00:04:11]>> Now, I'm curious. What do you think it is?

[00:04:14]>> It's the level of CO2 that the Earth can take back in or the oceans.

[00:04:17]>> Yeah. And Wait, wait, wait. What do you think it is?

[00:04:20]>> Do you think we're getting Wait. Okay.

[00:04:21]Do you Do you Is it your opinion that we're getting close to the CO2 sequestering?

[00:04:26]>> Obviously, I know I'm more I'm more in tune to this stuff than you than you are.

[00:04:30]>> I mean, hey, listen. We could get the bad faith. I could I could go ahead and Google it. uh geological carbon sequest uh sequestration has a planetary limit of roughly 1,460 gatons of CO2. Because of the risk likely induced seismically, this means subterranean storage can only reduce global warming by about 0.7 C, making it a scarce finite source rather than an unlimited climate solution. The limits of uh carbon sequestration break down into three main categories. uh total capacity uh extensive studies indicate the earth can safely hold about 1460 uh gigatons of injected CO2 into suitable sedimentary basins. Uh fully utili utilizing this entire geological budget caps global temperature reduction to roughly 0.7 uh Celsius. Current point of admission storage operates well below this capturing about 50 million metric tonses globally per year.

[00:05:30]Um so basically what this is saying uh we can keep we can keep reading on right this is the argument ecosystem natural sequestering limits go ahead global models estimate that ecosystem restoration uh forest wetlands grassland uh could capture a maximum of 96.9 uh gigatons of carbon until 2,100.

[00:05:52]The capacity of natural sinks is threatened by climate change itself making natural solutions highly variable. Uh while soil carbon sequestration could theoretically absorb up to 27% of necessary emissions emissions to keep warming below 2 degrees Celsius, soil has a hard uh minological uh saturation limits, right?

[00:06:12]So So what we're saying here, right, is that the Earth takes in a certain amount um of of CO2.

[00:06:20]>> Mhm.

[00:06:20]>> It can only take into, you know, it can only possibly take in a certain amount of CO2. Uh so this is going to be that there's just going to be naturally a lot of CO2 remaining in the atmosphere after emission because it's the Earth can only sequester so much back. Right. We agree with that.

[00:06:35]>> Right. Right. Right. Are you done?

[00:06:37]>> So these were the I'm just asking. Do we agree with this?

[00:06:40]>> You don't even understand it.

[00:06:42]>> Do we agree with this? Do we just I'm just asking a very question.

[00:06:45]>> I don't agree with it. You don't agree that if the earth can't sequester back the CO2 it stays in the atmosphere. You don't agree with that why these I I'll explain to you why I disagree with it because this is >> I'm just trying to see what you even disagree with. Right. I'm asking you a very simple question. Do you disagree that the if the earth can't sequester back all of the CO2 it's going to stay in the atmosphere? Do you disagree with that?

[00:07:05]>> Are you done?

[00:07:06]>> I'm I asked you a question.

[00:07:07]>> Do you even understand what you're reading, sir?

[00:07:09]>> I'm asking you a question.

[00:07:11]>> These these are the selling pitch they made for carbon capture. This is what you're just yapping. Okay, here. This is real simple. I'm asking you a question.

[00:07:19]I'm asking this question.

[00:07:20]>> I'm I'm trying to explain this to you.

[00:07:22]>> You're you're trying to explain nothing to me right now. You're going to be asking about You're going to be answering my question, right? So, if the Earth gets sequester back all the CO2 in the atmosphere, yes or no?

[00:07:30]>> It doesn't matter.

[00:07:31]>> It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter if there's excess CO2 in the atmosphere.

[00:07:34]>> It It doesn't matter at all.

[00:07:37]>> Why don't you real simple Google search?

[00:07:38]Why don't you It doesn't matter if CO at No, it would not matter.

[00:07:44]>> Okay. Do you think there's any limit of CO2 that the atmosphere would be able to hold without seeing like giant ships in the in the um in the world?

[00:07:54]>> Yeah, sure. Uh what happened during the Jurassic period when it was 8,000 parts per million?

[00:07:57]>> The Jurassic period where no human was able to [ __ ] live there. Try again.

[00:08:01]>> So cool. So you tell me I'm interested in humans surviving, right? I'm not interested in like the world exploding.

[00:08:07]So, I'm asking you like, do you think that there's a certain amount of CO2 that can be in the atmosphere without changing fundamentally like sea levels or temperatures?

[00:08:15]>> It won't change anything, dude.

[00:08:18]>> How not? Do you think that >> Yeah, real simple, genius. What kind of cars were dinosaurs driving back in the Jurassic period?

[00:08:24]>> Oh my god, you're so [ __ ] stupid. Do you think that the only way that CO2 is emitted into the atmosphere?

[00:08:30]I got another question. Do you think the only way that CO2 is emitted into the atmosphere is through cars?

[00:08:34]>> No. No. The largest contributor is volcanic activity. And the second is the [laughter] ocean.

[00:08:39]>> Wow, that's crazy.

[00:08:40]>> Yeah. Yeah. Here, here's another one for you. Why don't you Google the temperature during the Jurassic period?

[00:08:44]What was the average temperature during the Jurassic period when it had the highest CO2 levels? What do you think?

[00:08:48]>> I don't want to live in the Jurassic period, though, bro. You couldn't live in the Jurassic period. You would die.

[00:08:54]You would die there. You would die. I don't want to live there. I don't want to live in the Jurassic period. You would die. I don't want to be there. 4° F.

[00:09:04]>> I'm I'm starting to talk. This is like diff like literally Dunning Krueger.

[00:09:07]Like do you understand that you are like the living Krueger effect that projected it's Dunning Krueger? You >> saying that worst case scenario we're going to go back to the Jurassic period.

[00:09:17]We're going to [ __ ] die if we go back that predicted we would have no ice caps in the year 2000. These are the models that you are relying on. Genius.

[00:09:25]>> I'm just relying on middle school science, bro. And you can't even engage with that.

[00:09:29]>> What science? These are the models that you guys have relied on your belief since 196 out of curiosity. Why is it that you think Why do you think greenhouse Why do you think green houses are warm?

[00:09:41]>> Right. Uh yeah. Why do you think they put in uh >> That's not an answer. Not an answer. Why do you think green houses are warm?

[00:09:47]>> I'm trying to explain it to you, genius.

[00:09:48]>> Well, you're asking a question. Why typically doesn't start an explanation into farms as well?

[00:09:53]>> That's not what I asked. Why do you think green houses are warm?

[00:09:57]>> Yeah, I'm trying to explain this to you.

[00:09:59]No, you're asking me a question and I want to answer it because I want to answer what >> Why is it that green houses are warm?

[00:10:06]>> Are you done?

[00:10:07]>> I I I asked you a question again. I know you're having a lot of difficulty answering these questions.

[00:10:12]>> They keep they keep it >> so pumping CO2 into a greenhouse pumping CO2 into a greenhouse is going to raise the temperature.

[00:10:19]>> That's also why >> is that the Wait, is that the case? Is it the case that pumping CO2 into a greenhouse is going to raise the temperature?

[00:10:25]No, they pump CO2.

[00:10:28]>> Why are green houses so warm?

[00:10:30]>> They pump CO2. No, no, that doesn't raise the temperature. The reason why green houses are warmer is because they actually inside an enclosment, bro.

[00:10:40]>> Wow.

[00:10:41]>> They pump CO2 into into green houses to raise CO2 levels. Are youware increase plant life? Are >> you aware that excess CO2 in the atmosphere is going to trap heat is traps heat? Are you aware of that? Are you aware that excess CO2 in the atmosphere of trapped heat, >> right? What is excess?

[00:10:58]>> Excess is past the limit that the Earth can sequester back.

[00:11:01]>> What limit is that, sir?

[00:11:02]>> I don't know.

[00:11:02]>> You don't even know it.

[00:11:05]>> I don't need to know you the specific number. I'm asking you a theoretical question. Is it the case that if there's excess CO2 in the atmosphere that it traps heat? That's the very simple question.

[00:11:15]>> Well, hold on a second. If during the Jurassic That's a yes or no question.

[00:11:18]I've got to give you three tries. That's a yes or no question. How wrong you are.

[00:11:21]>> Well, I'm asking you a yes or no question. You are this is the first one.

[00:11:24]I'm giving you your first try, right? Is it the case that excess CO2 want to try to kick me now?

[00:11:29]>> Is it the case that excess CO2 in the atmosphere traps heat? Yes or no?

[00:11:32]>> There is no evidence.

[00:11:34]>> There's no evidence of that. Okay, got we can Google that too.

[00:11:38]>> Go excess CO2 in the atmosphere >> trap heat.

[00:11:50]CO carbon dioxide CO2 in the atmosphere acts like a one-way energy filter. It allows visible uh sunlight to reach and warm the Earth's surface, but it absorbs outgoing infrared radiation that the planet naturally radiates back out into space. The sun li uh emits shortwave radiation, visible light that passes clearly through the atmosphere and warms the Earth's surface. The heat is reriated. The uh warmth the warmth earth radiates this energy back into large or as longwave radiation unlike primary uh atmospheric gases like nitrogen and oxygen which is transparent to infrared energy. CO2 absorbs outgoing heat. Its unique molecular structure causes its bonds to bend and vibrate. The vibrating CO2 molecule quickly remits this infrared energy in all directions. About half of it escapes back into space and the other half is directed back toward Earth. So, I'm going to ask you for this the second time. Is it the case? Because I just literally read that it does.

[00:12:46]>> Okay. So, when it says that the CO2 when it says that the CO2 when it says that the CO2 absorbs the radar Wait, hold on.

[00:12:53]If it says that the CO2 absorbs the infrared energy, >> you don't think it's the case that the CO evidence, sir. That's a claim.

[00:13:02]>> Real simple. I'm going to try this.

[00:13:04]>> We can read it. We can read it.

[00:13:05]>> Do it again. We're going to We're going to try to use your common sense here.

[00:13:09]Google what was the CO2 levels during the Jurassic period.

[00:13:13]>> Oh my god, you're still stuck on the Jurassic period.

[00:13:15]>> And what was the temperature?

[00:13:19]>> That's not responsive. That's nonresponsive.

[00:13:22]>> You're saying evidence. There's the proof that it has no correlation.

[00:13:26]>> That's nonresponsive.

[00:13:28]>> Yes, it is.

[00:13:29]>> Splinter.

[00:13:30]>> Splinter responsive. You'll need to do >> according to your claim. You shut the [ __ ] up. According to Ukraine, the higher CO2 levels there are, the higher temperature there will be. Now, if you go Google what was the average uh parts per million during Jurassic period, it should be a lot warmer than it is today, but it's not.

[00:13:51]>> Wait, I'm sorry, >> Google. What was the CO2 level during the Jurassic period?

[00:13:58]>> Let's see the CO2,000.

[00:14:01]Would Do you want to learn something today? Let's see the CO2 correlation to heat.

[00:14:05]>> 8,000 and 10,000 parts per million. Now, look at what the temperatures were during the Jurassic period.

[00:14:10]>> Wait, I'm sorry. I'm going to >> I'm going to post an image here and I want you to tell me if this is a correlation.

[00:14:17]>> I don't care about an image.

[00:14:18]>> I want I'm going to post an image here.

[00:14:20]I want you to tell me if this is a correlation.

[00:14:22]>> You don't trust science now. You don't >> No, we're we're going to draw we're draw a correlation, right? We're going to draw a correlation.

[00:14:29]>> Sure. So, why the why the desert's greening, sir? Well, I'm going to I'm about to show you.

[00:14:33]>> Why are we not losing ice caps, sir?

[00:14:35]Seeing that our so-called CO2 levels are higher.

[00:14:38]>> We We are losing mass in the ice caps. I don't know why you're acting like we're not.

[00:14:41]>> Oh, do you want me to show you how wrong you are on that, too?

[00:14:43]>> What? You're going to point to the one ice cap?

[00:14:45]>> Oh, one ice cap. You You want to bet on it?

[00:14:49]>> Does that look like a correlation to you?

[00:14:51]>> Does that look like a correlation to you?

[00:14:53]>> Here you go. Let's here. I'll do it.

[00:14:55]I'll do it my way to you guys. Wait. Yes or no? Okay. Three tries. Does that look like a correlation to you? Here, I'll do it my way. Does that look like a correlation to you? Not a dull [ __ ] >> Third time. Does that look like a correlation to you?

[00:15:07]>> That has zero to do with no correlations. There's nothing. That's real simple. We're actually >> the harder I the more I would to debate.

[00:15:20]>> If I harder, I wouldn't debate harder.

[00:15:23]>> What's up, buddy?

[00:15:29]>> Oh, [ __ ] Yeah, my bad. I was sitting here waiting, man. You guys went on forever. That dude cooked the hell out of you, though.

[00:15:36]>> I mean, wait. Okay, wait. I'll just ask you the question real quick, too, because he struck out because he was too afraid to answer that question. Um, I'm going to post a picture real quick, and I want you to tell me if this looks like a correlation to you.

[00:15:49]>> Who's it from?

[00:15:51]>> Real quick, does this look like a correlation to you?

[00:15:55]>> Well, it depends. What What's the >> Well, though, it doesn't really depend.

[00:15:59]And I'm asking you if if it's the case that this >> I mean did you put that together? Did a third grader put it together?

[00:16:05]>> This is coming from this is coming from MIT. So I'm asking you does this is this a correlation?

[00:16:11]>> Well, it depends. I mean you got to peel back the onion. I don't believe anything that comes from the government anymore.

[00:16:15]>> How does it depend?

[00:16:17]>> Because it depends on who it comes from.

[00:16:19]Is it bought and paid for? I mean >> that doesn't No, that doesn't matter.

[00:16:21]I'm asking you. Does this show a correlation?

[00:16:27]>> I don't know. I got to look at the data.

[00:16:28]I don't believe that.

[00:16:29]>> You don't know if this graph shows a correlation, Popcorn.

[00:16:33]>> I mean, you slap temperature and carbon dioxide on there. I mean, is that >> that's what's being measured? Yeah.

[00:16:41]>> Is that accurate or was it paid for?

[00:16:43]>> Yes, this is accurate.

[00:16:44]>> Hey, we need the information to look like this. If you want money, >> I'm not even asking. I'm asking you very simply, does this graph show a correlation?

[00:16:52]>> It could, but it probably doesn't in reality.

[00:16:55]>> Probably doesn't. So this this graph does not show a correlation to you.

[00:16:59]>> Well, I mean Florida or have >> what are we doing? Just for the YouTube side, let me >> for the YouTube side. Let me show you the graph that I'm showing there cuz this is the one that we don't know if is correlated or not.

[00:17:13]>> Um can I add this just as like a Yeah.

[00:17:18]Yeah. This is we we don't know if this is a correlation or not. We don't know if this is correlated.

[00:17:25]What are we doing, bro? What are we doing?

[00:17:30]This guy's not coming up. Okay, Holy [ __ ] This guy also said that it doesn't. What does correlation mean?

[00:17:41]Do you guys need to go back to like [ __ ] um quantitative reasoning, bro?

[00:17:50]>> [snorts] >> I think the problem is that that dude doesn't know what correlation means.

[00:17:59]Yeah, probably. I'll show you, genius.

[00:18:01]Well, will you?

[00:18:06]Are you going to show me that that's not a correlation?

[00:18:11]What's up, Mr. Drink Maker?

[00:18:15]>> What's up, man? Are you supposed to be uh Parker or Dean Withers? Uh, you know, I'm trying. Yeah, I'm Renyald, buddy.

[00:18:23]>> Do you have a anxiety pin on standby?

[00:18:26]>> No.

[00:18:26]>> Oh, okay. Well, you're different than the other guys, then.

[00:18:29]>> Like, I I have no idea how the [ __ ] it's the case that these people make you so mad that you constantly think about them like this. I've never thought about Dean Withers as much as you do.

[00:18:38]>> I mean, you kind of look like him and you imitate them. And the way you talk is just it's it's very similar.

[00:18:43]>> How do I imitate him?

[00:18:43]>> The similarities are very close.

[00:18:46]>> Yeah.

[00:18:47]>> Yeah. Yeah, you talk really fast. You stumble over.

[00:18:49]>> I think this is called I think this is called dean derangement syndrome. I think that's what this is called.

[00:18:54]>> I think you're just a warning suffering that imitates the things that terminal DDS. Terminal DDS. By the way, I have actually been debating >> Parker first.

[00:19:03]>> I I Sorry, PPS. My bad. I I actually I may have been debating longer than Parker. I don't know when he started, but I may still debating Parker.

[00:19:13]>> That's true. I don't have as many viewers as him. Maybe Parker. Why do you think that is?

[00:19:18]>> Dean and Parker are copying me.

[00:19:20]>> Why do you think that is? You don't have as many viewers as them.

[00:19:23]>> I don't know.

[00:19:23]>> Maybe you're just not as interesting.

[00:19:25]>> Could be.

[00:19:26]>> Do you not have an anxiety pin?

[00:19:27]>> Why is it the case that you're trying to do a big personal deep dive on me whenever I attack your daddy Trump? Like all >> I just I scroll by and I just see these people that look so much like them. It's crazy because they're the ones who started this anti-Trump [ __ ] >> Well, hey, listen. One person thinking about me is more people than think about you.

[00:19:46]>> You're correct about CO2. The Jurassic era era was up to 18 degrees warmer than today. Yeah, I I know, right? I like there. It's almost as bulletproof as a syllogism to prove um climate change, right? Like if it's the case that CO2 is correlative with warmth and if it's the case that CO2 radiates heat, right? And if it's the case that excess CO2 being in the atmosphere is going to trap heat, then climate change exists, right? It's just very very simple. Um, and that if it's the case that, you know, we're near or past the CO2 sequestering limit, then there's going to be excess CO2, right? If we produce CO2 quicker than the Earth can sequester it back, then there's going to be excess CO2 in the atmosphere. And if there's uh heat coming into the atmosphere and then being caught by the CO2 and then radiated back onto the at or back onto the stratosphere or whatever um that it's going to heat the surface temperatures, right? And that's why we keep seeing a positive correlation um between CO2 emissions by, you know, humans and it being hot as [ __ ] right?

[00:20:50]There's a reason why we're seeing, you know, record record hot summer after record hot summer after record hot summer.

[00:20:57]Correct. Kind of basic science. Yeah.

[00:20:58]This is middle school, right? I don't pretend to be a scientist. This is just very very basic middle school science.

[00:21:06]Where do modern conservative values come from? Um, well, modern conservative is kind of an oxymoron, right? Or not oxymoron, kind of a it's kind of contradictory, right? Like like in order to be a conservative, you're taking your views from about society from a past time, right? You're trying to conserve values from before, right? So you're not really going to have like progressive conservatism or like modern conservatism. It's just going to be conservatism, right?

[00:21:34]Ocean and sea temperatures are rising rising too. True.

[00:21:40]Also, there's this is a little past my pay grade, but there's a lot of stuff about like the the acidification and the bleaching of like a lot of the um a lot of the [ __ ] in the ocean and [ __ ] um see ocean acidification CO2 um which I think hurts the amount of CO2 that it can sequester back to because it's killing all the things that would ordinarily take the CO2. Um, ocean acidification is an ongoing de decrease in pH in the Earth's ocean caused by absorption of excess CO2 from the atmosphere.

[00:22:14]Since the industrial revolution, the ocean has roughly absorbed 25% of all human generated emissions.

[00:22:25]Um, reacts with water causing carbonic acid quickly breaks down releasing hydrogen. An increase in hydrogen ions causes the water's pH to drop making it more acidic.

[00:22:37]Um, which kills corals, clams, oysters, sea urchins, plankton.

[00:22:42]Um, rely upon abundant carbon ions to build and maintain their shells and skeletons.

[00:22:56]That's true.

[00:22:58]I've got an environmental science major as one of my buddies. So, he talks my ear off a lot.

[00:23:07]>> But like all of this is very very basic science, right? Like I'm not poisoning myself as some sort of expert, right?

[00:23:12]But um it would be safe to say they're either Christian nationalist or xenophobic. Um I I could I like them typically, but those ideologies are almost too specific, right? cuz um conservatism is just like a a general belief of like conserving the prior culture and it seems it's it is the case that um the you know past American culture um was xenophobic to a certain extent um Christian nationalist I wouldn't say uh I don't think Christian nationalism is necessarily like or like conservatism necessitates Christian nationalism or whatever um I can see a lot of conservatives being not Christian nationalists Unless you're taking like Christian nationalism to be as vague as like, well, I want a majority Christians, but like we're still there.

[00:24:05]Wow to me that renewables aren't the agenda agenda for energy. It'll create jobs and create emissions, reduce emissions with impact on health. Uh, win true. I I generally I the thing that I usually say is that like do the majority Oh, you're in request box. We could just we could just chat. Um, typically what I say is that like, you know, the bulk of the job can be done by nuclear and then like renewables can basically supplement. Um, because it just doesn't seem like, maybe I'm wrong, I'm kind of outside of my depth, but um, renewable energies just probably aren't able to account for the um, amount of energy that we would need. Um, so using nuclear to kind of carry the bulk like the bulk of the job and then um using renewables as like kind of supplementary I think would be probably pretty good especially considering that nuclear has a very um you know minuscule emission upfront cost or whatever.

[00:25:01]Hey, what's up doctor?

[00:25:09]Oh, hey man. How you doing?

[00:25:11]>> Just hanging out. Trying to some Trump supporters, but I think um I think it's probably restart inbound. But >> good on you. I know. I heard you talking about uh carbon uh climate change and I it's an interest I have in terms of healthcare and how healthcare is a big contributor to our emissions and how we do need to make some switches over to renewables. And I agree with you that nuclear can be a part of that plan. It's just it's got a long lead time to get going. And then if it has a catastrophic failure, which if you deregulate like crazy, the risk of that happening is significantly higher.

[00:25:49]>> Yeah, for sure.

[00:25:50]>> The tech for renewables is cheap. It's cheaper than it's cheaper than fossil fuels. And we already subsidize the crap out of fossil fuels. So, you know, it just makes it just makes too much sense to push that. So, >> I agree. I I mean, hey, like credit where it's due. the inflation reduction act was doing a [ __ ] ton of like um it walked back a lot of the subsidies for uh fossil fuels. I think it introduced a bunch of subsidies for electric cars and renewable energy. But then as soon as this um I'm going to be honest, as soon as the current quote unquote president of the United States came into office, um you know, one of the first the legislative agendas was revoking all of those. So, >> totally. Anyway, man, this is going to be my first time voting in the midterms.

[00:26:35]New, freshly minted US citizen, which sounds weird given my accent, but uh I'm excited to get in there and make my voice heard.

[00:26:43]>> Awesome.

[00:26:43]>> I think it's things got to change.

[00:26:45]>> Hey, I dropped you a follow. Um I'm probably going to restart the live, but I appreciate you coming up and um >> you know, we can have a conversation at some point. [music] >> [music]
