Why we're still losing the fight against Methane
Carbon dioxide is the main culprit behind climate change. But in second place is methane: a greenhouse gas stronger than CO2, that's wreaking havoc on our planet. Humans are polluting the atmosphere with methane from a whole host of processes - like fossil fuels, farming, trash. But cutting these methane emissions would be a huge (and easy!) win. So why are emissions of this global warming driving greenhouse gas still going up?

    4:17 - Methane from cows is only problematic due to fossil fuels; yet you'd go without cows? Earth is a big ball of molten rock. In 1982 Nasa/Sandia Labs demonstrated the technology to harness Magma Energy - and yet over the past 40 years vegan extremists and other eco-Marxists have ignored the prospect of a prosperous AND sustainable future powered by practically limitless clean energy from Magma, to push a wholly politicised, anti-capitalist, limits to growth agenda. Are you aware of Alan Savory's research suggesting ruminant animals are necessary to prevent desertification? Given virtually limitless clean energy to spend; ideally, you'd desalinate sea water to irrigate land, sow rough grasses for fodder, and cows would turn arid scrub into arable land. No need to drain/pollute the rivers and burn the forests given the monolithic heat energy of the earth to draw upon, yet you'd go without meat - as if to justify continued fossil fuel use? Weird!

    Glad I stopped buying rice then. I discovered that my high carbohydrate diet was ruining my health - so, out went the rice, potatoes, all grains (yep, no more bread, except on my birthday as a 'rare treat.' But still no cakes, no biscuits, no products with added wheat derivatives). Also, no more sugar either. I went into intermittent fasting, so that's now 2 meals per day instead of 3. Therefore, having cut down on food by at least one-third (without carbs, you're less likely to 'snack' too) and quitting veganism (I'd been vegan 4 years, vegetarian for 40 years), I returned to mainly vegetarian with occasional fish. My health improved greatly. I expect vegans will be critical of my return to dairy foods, but since I don't eat grains (which contributes to an awful lot of ploughing, harrowing, tilling, and spraying - this releasing even more CO2 into the atmosphere with every pass of the tractor), I think this is an acceptable trade off. I only have organic, grass fed dairy produce, and grow a lot of my own fruits, vegetables and mushrooms every year - which means zero plastic packaging waste and transport for all these items. I have never criticised others for their eating habits, and never tried to influence anyone to go vegan. Under the circumstances, I'm glad I never did so. A lot of fake vegan meats and processed products are little more than chemistry sets in fancy wrapping with the added insult of a high price tag. I went down the road of veggie burgers, sausages, fake chicken, bacon and all that jazz. Poison. All of it. When I got sick and my husband did some research into this stuff, he told me to look at the ingredients list. I did. Most vegan products in my freezer/fridge had a minimum of 3-4 dozen ingredients. One product had just over 100. 100 ingredients, and I didn't recognise most of them because they were chemical names. Do I know if those chemicals are safe in my food after long term consumption? I don't know, and likely 'you' don't either. Now, how much energy went into the processing and extraction of all those separate ingredients (including various types of vegetable oil - that necessitates industrial scale manufacturing through 'multiple' processes including heating and chemical scrubbing)? These ingredients then remanufactered to make one product again. Vegan food isn't food. It's an industrial product. And lots of people are eating this stuff thinking that it's as healthy for them as it is for the planet. But I question whether it is either. If you are going to do the best for your planet in terms of food production - eat simply, don't indulge in sugary snacks (which are designed to make you feel hungrier with ingredients such as modified starches and sugar hidden under different names), don't drink alcohol (another form of sugar and an unnecessary indulgence), practice intermittent fasting if you have the will and strength to do so (lose weight, beat diabetes 2), don't eat any fast food (fried in industrialised vegetable oil), eat as few grain products as possible (processed food, high agricultural impact on soil), eat only a little meat and/or dairy now and again (don't need it daily), buy organic as much as possible (there is no such thing as truly organic. That's a myth. All soil, air and water is contaminated. But in buying organic, not only do you lessen the smount of pesticides and herbicides in your intake - you also help 'prevent' the production of new chemical controls in the future... Never forget, Glyphosate is bad enough. But Monsanto is corrupt enough to push something worse onto the market and pretend it's safe for years before we discover it isn't. Applying pesticides as freely as many farmers do at present is about the same as constantly handing anti-biotics to humans. It helps breed tougher, more resistant strains of the original problem). Best of all - grow at least some of your own food. Even if you are gardening-shy, you can choose one vegetable, something easy like peas or potatoes or Oca (if you live in a reasonable climate) or courgettes or lettuce, and become an expert in that one crop alone. Once you become expert in one, add another string to your bow and grow another easy crop. The main failing of all novice gardeners who jump into raising their own food is - trying too many crops at once, eithout the proper time to look after any of them properly. You only have to look after one crop really well to enjoy the experience of a glut of produce and find yourself half filling your freezer to last the winter. Gardening is not a case of having green fingers, but having the capacity to learn by your mistakes. I'm a gardener by profession, but I wasn't a good one straight away. I had to work at it, for years. But you'd trample your mother to get to my peach tree, as the fruit is many times better than anything you would get in a shop. Many people overestimate how many plants they need to make a difference. If you're living alone, a student for instance, a windowsill of lettuce, 2 courgettes and a half dozen pea plants on the balcony is enough to make a big difference to you. Unused seed can be stored in a dry part of the fridge until next year. It will last in most cases.

    Not bad! However, I saw nothing about what is really being discussed is the water vapor feedback where water vapor is the dominant greenhouse gas. Sabine's comment about supercooled water vapor got partially at this point. Water as a greenhouse gas can exist both as a vapor where it behaves as a greenhouse gas or as a liquid or solid in a cloud where it changes the albedo of the planet (reflectivity in the optical frequency). A tiny change in cloud cover greatly impacts the heat input to the planet. Just a 1 % change will create roughly 2 W/M2 change in the amount of heat the earth needs to dump and we are looking at CO2 in the same energy range. To add more complexity to go from water vapor to clouds the vapor has to become supercooled and then nucleation on a microscopic nucleus is required. Having worked with supersaturation issues in liquids and oceans, and knowing that cloud formation is often aided by air pollution (source of nuclei) we are eliminating in my lifetime (the acid rain issue has disappeared as people like me solved the problem) our measured short time data may be very misleading. Lots of moving parts including massive evaporation of water by agriculture. I agree on a carbon tax as this problem is too complex for the bureaucracy to handle.

    Very convenient for the energy sector that agriculture combines farming (like Rice) and meat production (like beef), otherwise Methane (Natural Gas) would be in FIRST PLACE as the worst Methane (CH4) source. Also convenient for the energy sector that transportation combines commercial transportation ( plane and truck), public transportation and private transportation otherwise Methane would also be in FIRST PLASE as the worst CO2 source. Depending how you classify the source of GHG ( CO2 and CH4) the governmental agency take the spot light away from the worst source which in my opinion is no other than NATURAL GAS. Love you video, they are quite accurate given the constraint on how the government classify those source to benefit the industrial complex.

    I think maybe you should talk about how methane breaks down in the atmosphere. It doesn't just disappear. It loses a hydrogen atom to create Hydrochloric acid (e.g., acid rain). The Methyl group that's left is highly reactive and while I haven't found a description of the reaction yet, I suspect the unbalanced hydrogens are responsible for the Ozone production while the leftover carbon becomes carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide. If the volume of Methane in the atmosphere exceeds a certain amount, it's lifespan increases as there is not enough Chlorine in the atmosphere to breakoff that first hydrogen.

    What’s wrong with this statement: “Climate change is caused by releasing carbon previously trapped in the ground into the atmosphere in gaseous form (CO2) irreversibly changing the amount of carbon cycling between the atmosphere and the biosphere?” I think it’s true, and it reveals a fundamental distinction between FF and carbon coming from cows eating grass and farting: without adding new carbon from somewhere else, the biosphere will balance, the grass will reabsorb the carbon, and it’s a short term problem.

    The conversation we need is about the natural sources of methane release. As permafrost melts microbes get at the detritus material that use to be frozen for thousands if not hundreds of thousands of years causing that carbon to be released as CO2 and methane. In other words, CO2 has warmed the planet enough to cause permafrost to melt causing methane to be released in a reinforcing feedback loop. Back in 2008 my professor warned me about this exact thing. I hope I am wrong!
