Global Warming Videos by Dr Patrick Dixon - truth about carbon trading, offsets, what companies and consumers will do. Carbon neutral lifestyles.   Huge number of articles, videos, lectures, keynote presentations on global warming are listed below.  This site has been visited by over 13 million different people with 4 million video views.

The evidence for human-linked global warming is overwhelming. We now have convincing scientific data for the last million years showing how carbon dioxide levels and temperature have changed together to produce global warming.

Every year, snow and ice form in Antarctica, trapping tiny pockets of gas, and by drilling cores deep into several kilometres of ice we can extract air pockets which have been perfectly stored for up to a million years. We can analyse these samples, not only for carbon dioxide, but also for isotopes of hydrogen in the ice, which give an indication of how warmer cold the earth was when the ice formed - global warming is a highly complex subject.

We know these methods are reasonably reliable because we can compare other data we have for the timings of recent ice ages, and these fit very well with predictions we can make from the ice cores. That gives us confidence to look further back into ice core history to discover patterns of global warming and global cooling over hundreds of thousands of years.

Carbon dioxide levels are probably higher today than they have been for the last million years. Global warming may take generations to fully impact our world. Even if carbon dioxide levels remain as they are today (impossible) we could see sea levels go on rising slowly for a thousand years. Expect global warming to be a major issues, in company strategy and consumer choices, with many billions of dollars spent to try and reduce future impact.

Sustainagility - answers to global warming

Sustainagility:  how innovation will help protect our future.  Sustainagility is a book by Patrick Dixon and Johan Gorecki about the $40 trillion green technology book and how astonishing scientific progress, and business innovation will provide the tools to tackle many of the greatest sustainability issues, including global warming, climate change and so on.

One of many steps to tackle global warming will be to capture carbon dioxide in power station emissions, and store it underground. This sounds difficult but is already happening routinely. One gas pipe supplies fuel, and another gas pipe carries back products of combustion. Carbon sequestration doubles the cost of power generation, but when you add in other costs such as distribution, marketing, account handling and so on, using today's technology, the actual increase in retail prices is no more than 20%. It is a practical response to global warming.

Even if the technology fails to improve, it would mean the equivalent of a 1% increase in electricity prices each year for twenty years. Such a modest increase would be more than offset by reduced power use due to energy saving. A single power station in Norway, run by Vattenfall, captures so much carbon dioxide that it fulfills almost 30% of Norway's 2007 targets for global warming action by reducing carbon use under the Kyoto treatey.

Here is a video that was recorded on this site about global warming threat around 10 years ago. There is NOTHING new about global warming as an issue, although the scientific data is stronger now than before.

=====================================================================

I would like to talk about a very serious problem that has not been solved to this day. The solution can be very beneficial due to the enormous profit gain, and very beneficial to help our current environmental stage in the world take a big turn towards the better. This concerns our planet Earth, and everyone that lives on it. The problems are tied to ecology and energy, ecology is because we pollute our earth more and more everyday with gas and oil, we also have a very serious problem that many countries are suffering from because they are all getting flooded every year, the world ocean is at a very high level, countries spend big amounts of money on rebuilding every year due to natural catastrophes, and of course countries face economical problems because of this fact.
We can solve this problem if we start lowering the World Ocean starting in the Black sea, extracting out the hydrogen sulphur, that can be used as a new energy source for everyday energy use such as for cars, home heating..etc. Almost 90% of water is hydrogen sulphur in the Black sea. If the process does not stop the hydrogen sulphur will erupt out the sea. It is heavier than air and will shroud our planet with a poisonous layer from the ground floor up 8 meters, and from the ground floor up 8 meters all life will be lost.
Let me point out to you the benefits that will be received from raising hydrogen sulphur
1. Cheap, renewed, non-polluting energy.
2. The sulphur can be applied to building (In America there’s about 27 compounds used to build highways 1 of them is sulphur)
3. We can put similar installations in Ukraine, Bulgaria, Turkey, and Romania that can be beneficial to us as a long term income.
4. Hydrogen sulphur processing, within a couple years time the Black sea level will lower and The World Ocean will follow.
*that benefits lots of countries from floods and natural catastrophes.
5. The threat of explosion of the black sea will disappear.
6. Industrial processing of hydrogen sulphur will allow to translate the upcoming years to power-intensive enterprises on hydrogen.
7. To use hydrogen as energy allows less CO2 to go into the atmosphere, therefore helping save our planet.
8. In the sea the fauna will gradually be restored, there will be fish and dolphins like there used to be before when the sea was not as polluted.

I am the organizer of this project with a team of scientists on my hands which have invented the technology to extract hydrogen sulphur from The Black Sea then separating the hydrogen from the sulphur and also coming up with new and more energy efficient ideas for the future, which will lead people to thank me and my team while of course making a good deal of money. I have recently opened up a company which is dedicated to solving energy issues in Moscow and looking for the right partner to work with that understands how important this is and the profit potential. The investment capital needed is 10 million US. I understand that the amount is not small and I understand that at the current moment you do not have enough information to make a decision, I would like to offer to get in contact with each other to discuss this project, we can get into specific numbers and details on the project and begin negotiations. I have a documentary film on this subject made by my associates that explains and answers a lot of questions you might have now. I will include a youtube link in this e-mail the English version is 5 parts roughly 40 minutes long, and a Russian version that is 3 parts and about 20 minutes long.
