Dope Tech Episode 2

<<@bellam7033 says : Is the ecosocialism not good idea? And if so how? Can you do a video on this topic? Watching how the capitalism may be coming to an end.>> <<@charlenehou7441 says : Dr. Peterson, as a psychologist, I believe you value evidence and observation. So may I ask — when you claim that “China is worrisome on the totalitarian front,” what kind of data or methodology are you relying on? It sounds more ideological than empirical. You also said China’s system is “too unwieldy.” I’m curious — which system are you referring to? The medical one? Financial? Security? Or industrial? With a population of 1.6 billion, China manages to feed, employ, and educate its citizens without waging wars abroad. If this is what you call a “dysfunctional system,” then perhaps political science should study this as a new model of efficiency. And as for your claim that “every Chinese citizen is so fed up with the government interference of what they are doing every second of their life,” well, I can’t speak for everyone, but perhaps you should visit our social media platforms — you’ll find we discuss and criticize freely (just like USA, UK, maybe more freely, we even have very accurate words/ political phrasing). We even have government hotlines where citizens can complain directly. In fact, my parents would love a bit of government interference — especially in my marriage plans. I genuinely appreciate your open-mindedness on climate issues. But I also believe, as scholars, we should refrain from judging what we haven’t personally experienced. When you read about a country — or a person — through secondhand sources, some distortion is inevitable. So, Dr. Peterson, since you don’t need a visa to come to China anymore, why not visit and see for yourself? I’d be happy to show you around — and maybe, together, we can call that citizen hotline.>> <<@fredschnerbert1238 says : *And what does "Green" stuff do* *Plants doing photosynthesis, consume CO2 and emit O2 into the atmosphere* *O2, the stuff HUMANS breath*>> <<@fredschnerbert1238 says : *Stanford, Cal Tech and even USC are private* *Not part of UC or CSU* *UC Berkeley and UC San Fran(medical schools) are the premier Science schools* *in the state system*>> <<@AzazelKarnKane says : Seriously YT grow up and smell the coffee it's people like you the reason the world is in this mess . What business of mine is it So long they don’t take the yam From my savouring mouth? Do actually love you future kin or are all about your self in this moment 😤😡😠 take a look at your self and tell me what do I see.>> <<@KarenWinn-i1u says : Talk about parenting parents>> <<@_goobs says : We are genuinely in a dark age, considering how much wasted potential we have>> <<@fabienbelvedere979 says : Although I normally admires J.B.P I'm not really align with this argumentation, it means. yes go on as nothing has changed till the beginning of industrial era, no way resources are getting depleted, God will provide. Why do they have to talk about things they admit themselves they don't know of enough. The only aspect I could agree is that climate change is not the problem, it's a consequence a symptom of something much more severe. Hope I haven't offended anybody>> <<@bobpike6727 says : Aspired Dominance Applies Primarily Today= ADAPT.... Doubt Reduces Human Power. Don't do it.>> <<@goose5305 says : They may not live long enough to see the consequences of climate change but they have lived long enough to see the consequences of radical leftist policies>> <<@NorthEastFella says : Fantastic episode. Refreshing listening to people who know the science and can express their own opinions which may not be the current fashionable consensus>> <<@ATINKERER says : Green Hydrogen>> <<@cornwasher says : Clean energy equals H.H.O development. Yes, cars can run on water.... Check out Stan Meyers work in this area.>> <<@carlabrown608 says : It would be good to address why people breathing is considered a pollution - CO2 is what we exhale plants then use that to grow and their byproduct is oxygen. Hmmm what's wrong with us following these numbskull woke bureaucrats into destroying our eco systems. If we could eliminate all climate interventions (chem spraying,/geoengineering) and all the weather, biological and forest fire warfare the planet, and all living here would be able to live long, beautiful lives. 😊>> <<@johnbishop2611 says : Well my post about Stanley meyer car failed to post wonder why>> <<@johnbishop2611 says : I think climate change is guess work from what I have seen to many variables this earth is complicated>> <<@erwinkarlfranieck29 says : Dr. Peterson, Dr Kooning, please consider the Energy transition in construction in Brazil. We have more than 50% renewable energy , inclusive in transport . 27% ethanol in Gasoline, > 70% as Flexfuel cars in market, 30% using pure Ethanol (0,6 USD / liter x 1,1 USD / liter for Gasoline with 27% ethanol . )( fuel consumption : 1l ethanol ~ 0,7 l gasoline ) in 17 states from Brazil the Ethanol costs billanz is favorable for Ethanol. Our ethanol comes specially from Sugarcane, and has a very Positive Bilanz CO2 W2W.>> <<@alchemist6098 says : In the mid 90s I taught chemistry at a state university. One of the courses I taught was chemistry for non-science majors. The class was filled with students majoring in science policy, a humanities major. As I was developing the course I investigated the issue of global warming (as it was known then). I quickly realized the students were true believers and the subject was resting on a framework of fear and population control. Now I am at a private institution and I do computational chemistry. I am well aware of the shortcoming of computer models.>> <<@MCzechowski says : The key items that are omitted in the discussion are the corruption of certain organizations and govt as well as the excessive subsidies that support renewable energy. They also seldom meet quoted life span.>> <<@t3tsuyaguy1 says : I often wonder why I don't hear about more research into emissions capture. It seems like it must be at least _possible_ to capture what's coming out of my car's tailpipe. I'm sure there would be issues to solve of scale and establishing some sort of material pipeline for whatever for the captured emissions take. But if we're building out entirely new energy infrastructure, it seems at least worth exploring. I would also think that coal and gas powerplants could have a more effective means of emission capture. Whatever the cost or complexity, it has to be better than abandoning the technology altogether, when it adds so much value to society.>> <<@ElainesDomain says : Global warming is a hoax.>> <<@deyemeracing8795 says : There are a lot of good points being brought up, but I found one pretty much skipped. They mention scale, and come to what seems to be a conclusion that in the large scales given, renewables like solar and wind are ineffective. But t then neither brings up the concept of "well, many individuals BUY their cars and they BUY their homes and they BUY their clothes washers and dryers, why do we expect individuals to keep RENTING their electricity?" Indeed, solar and wind are more practical on a small scale because they can be used where practical and not used where not practical, just like owning a car may be impractical if you live where you can just ride a bicycle to work and rent a car for vacations, or like owning a washing machine may be impractical if you live in an apartment and would rather just go to the laundromat. If more people made the choice to own their electricity rather than renting it, it would provide numerous benefits, the least of which is a less destressed electrical grid. I find for my small business, being off-grid makes my ability to do work more independent of weather-related power outages, for example.>> <<@sergiocastilho2700 says : Cars run on sugar cane alcohol…>> <<@karlherzog3979 says : Speaking from a farmer’s perspective, there are many reasons why our crops are more productive. I’m sure CO2 density in the atmosphere might play a role in drought tolerance but todays methods and crop genetics are drastically better than they were 50-100 years ago. Planter technology, new tillage or no-tillage methods, better fertility management and better weed control are bigger factors in my opinion.>> <<@seanLee-sk2mi says : UN is criminal organization, should disbanded, gone.>> <<@Epona52 says : This is a terrific discussion; I would question how Dr. Koonin says renewables are cheap - from what I've seen, the cost of the equipment (wind turbines, solar farms) and the cost of disposal of the toxic byproducts as that equipment degrades, the cost of environmental damage, make renewables far more expensive than 'fossil fuels' - and in fact, at this point I would suggest that the generation of CO2 from fossil fuels is a net benefit to the planet!>> <<@callum7081 says : 13:30>> <<@tonylawton7475 says : Ralph Ellis ; Ice ages modulated by ice sheet albedo. (Low CO2 concentration desertification.) U tube.>> <<@Helmy67 says : It's so ironic that the same political powers who are scaring the shit out of us about climate doomsday are themselves willingly pushing us into a nuclear doomsday.>> <<@johngal8449 says : Typically the highly captured CIA Wikipedia discredit him without him having the ability on their bullshit platform to repudiate their claims.Fuck they are a subversive underhanded platform that is part of indoctrinating those who are not yet awake.>> <<@CentaurUK90 says : Whilst the discussion itself is extremely interesting, it nevertheless is still predicated on the false assumption that CO2 is a driving force in alleged global warming. This despite the fact that this is comprehensively debunked by a climatologist (John Christy) who simply points out that the computer modelling alleging this connection is totally lacking any proof. So clearly, there is a huge gap in our understanding of what is really happening to our global climate, and scare stories about extreme weather events are actually false in the assertion that they are on the increase, when the opposite is the case.>> <<@NunyaBesnas says : It doesn’t matter how much evidence you bring. These are zealots we’re dealing with and there is nothing you can say or show to sway their minds.>> <<@timeparticles says : Wind and Sun? Why not use Geothermal, Ocean Wave Generators ( always moving waves), spent Nuclear fuel generators?>> <<@RixterGames says : Massive JBP fan, and this is my favorite video so far. Dr. Koonin doesn't duck and dodge...straight up expertise in your face, in a way everybody can understand. Fantastic stuff.>> <<@matthewsherman4360 says : This guy worked for BP. It’s no surprise he is going to try and muddy the waters with cherry picked data. He is probably getting paid handsomely by them still!>> <<@hanklenzi7170 says : By the late 80s Brazil had already a large scale high yield sugar cane ethanol (which is way better than the U.S. corn-based one because it doesn’t involve breaking down celulose) program and half of the country’s fleet ran on it. But later on came Lula’s corrupt government with its Car Wash kickback scandal (billions worth) involving state oil company Petrobras so he ran the program to the ground and set back ethanol in Brazil, which was the only large economy that actually had a workable substitute for gasoline at large. Not only that, ethanol was practically a fully closed carbon-cycle (you burn fuel, release carbon, but the sugar cane plants fixate carbon again). Sadly, Lula was too corrupt and the rest is history.>> <<@JarvisGandy says : I think a lot of people especially the Left voters and young folks seems to have a problem with There Ear drums especially the enter Drums that Desiffers information this is why its a Failure of communication.>> <<@edwardj3070 says : Consensus in the scientific community is all we have, unless you think everyone needs to pursue graduate education in economics, physics, climate science, medicine, law, information tech, etc to be able to participate as a citizen in public policy. Take care with you conspiracy theories!!! they are nihilistic in the extreme.>> <<@tony3785 says : Can we please see the equations and numbers used to CALULATE the temperature changes that are expected due CO2?!!! We have seen the Radiative forcing formulas, 5.67x10^-8 x T^4 =((1-.3)1370)/4)+150 +(5.35ln(C/Co)) However... CO2 has an emissivity of 0.0017 at the partial pressure and temperature in the atmosphere. Why is no one addressing the Emissivity of CO2 which when incorporated into the IPCC equations reduces the Radiative forcing by 500 times ! Please someone out there especially a physicist/ chemists address this question !! The Ipcc omits emissivity of CO2 in the calcs .. WHY ? Why ? WHY???>> <<@autumnleaves2766 says : Another top class discussion. Dr Steven Koonin was a very impressive speaker and he was able to explain the science in terms which even a non-scientist such as I could understand. I'm a touch younger than Dr Peterson himself but to be honest I never feared nuclear catastrophe from launching of ICBMs etc, but was more concerned about nuclear accidents, as happened at Chernobyl in 1986. I worry that the dumbing down of education and obsession with DEI might result in a lack of able young scientists who can actually design, build and run nuclear power stations. All the young "eco zealots" could do with watching this informative interview. Thanks to Dr Peterson and Dr Koonin, much appreciated.>> <<@johnmorgan5495 says : Does Peterson think we are all deaf ??>> <<@jwilliam2255 says : The fundamental axiom of mathematical/computational modeling: Some models are useful; all models are wrong in some way(s).>> <<@ub2bn says : I recently perused several Universities' curricula, looking for a "Climate Scientist" Degree Course, and couldn't find a single one.>> <<@philipfraser604 says : Here is a thought that might help us understand the near impossibility of creating a weather model that would have any possibility of being accurate, no matter how powerful the computer: take a mile long stretch of a 20 foot wide and 3 feet deep babbling brook that is traveling over a rough and rocky bottom with a variable change in the rate of drop. Now take a ping pong sized ball that would barely sink to the bottom then create a computer model that would exactly predict EVERY movement that ball would take over the course of the mile long travel. It will never be possible. Trying to predict the weather over any appreciable length of time would be exponentially more difficult.>> <<@exploder78 says : The Earth's atmosphere is now in one of the coldest periods of the last 10,000 years. Only the Mini Ice Age, The Medival Cooling and the 8,200 Cooling periods were colder. 90% of the whole 10,000 years Holocene epoch was warmer and people did not have combustion engines back then to heat up the air. Vikings had cultivated wheat a thousand years ago in Greenland which today is impossible. Why do you think this cold snow covered island is called Greenland?!... The left will never be right... 🌎☄️>> <<@andrewbaldwin4454 says : Fascinating conversation with a great guest. It would have been better if Jordan could stop sounding like a Russophobe neo-con. Yes, the Russo-Ukrainian War was a source of energy instability in Europe, but so was the reaction to it. It may make sense to a clinical psychologist for the EU to forego Russian energy, but it is imbecilic as an economic strategy. Calling Russian oil dictator's oil is the cheapest kind of rhetorical device. No-one has to call American compressed natural gas "demented president's natural gas" because it is obviously a much more expensive alternative for Europe than Russian natural gas. That's why unindicted war criminal Joe Biden blew up the Nordstream 1 and 2 natural gas pipelines. Quite revealing that this was never mentioned as a source of instability in the discussion.>> <<@richardkirkham8064 says : Word salads by Peterson. I still thinks he talks too much waffle. Tone down and get your point across more precisely. His statements are so ambiguous. Half the time most normal people are still trying to process what he’s trying to say. Just saying ..>> <<@EARLandPEARL-c3i says : primates appeared when co2 levels were 900ppm...nuff said...Pevensey Castle, now one mile from the coast, demonstrates the warmer and global nature of prior warm periods....humans have no /miniscule effect on climate>> <<@EARLandPEARL-c3i says : the bible was read in latin for over 500 years...1% of parishioners understood it>> <<@dereklauder7 says : When Dr Stephen talks about the criteria being "reliable affordable and clean" and says "you can't have all three" it seems to me that nuclear energy does meet those three criteria?>>
