11:19 | Energy consumption for heating and cooling is expected to triple in the next thirty years, as populations grow, and more people move into cities. A lot of that energy demand is used in compressing and pumping fluids.
12:35 | Nigel Topping shares three rules of radical collaboration that could positively disrupt the patterns of the global economy and help humanity tackle the world’s greatest threat: climate change.
Klimakrisen er menneskeskabt, temperaturen stiger hurtigere, vejret bliver voldsommere, men det chokerer ikke Clara Laurine Berg-Jensen, som er klimaaktivist.
6:09 | In this video I try to visualize the world’s production of crude oil on a world map. Every marker represent one million tonnes of crude oil produced.
14:36 | The IPCC has been publishing science based climate warning assessments since 1990 and in those 30 odd years human beings have released more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere than we did in the previous two centuries.
24:29 | In this episode, we look at some of the ways technology is helping us solve the big environmental problems of our age.
14:28 | Oh my god! He admit it!
The global freight shipping industry accounts for nearly 3% of all GHG emissions, so freight operators are on a quest to reach net zero by 2050. Here’s three of the most promising wind power options that could help them get there.
42:24 | The new president of the European Council, Charles Michel, wants the twenty-seven member states to commit to making Europe the planet’s first climate-neutral continent by 2050. But Poland, 80% dependent on coal, is blocking the measure.
42:26 | Humanity faces major challenges. Could roots hold the answers? Research shows that roots have the potential to provide food for the world’s population, stop climate change and help extract resources in an environmentally friendly way.
11:27 | Iron Air batteries use cheap, non toxic, abundant materials and potentially have a far higher energy density than Lithium Ion batteries.
8:16 | In the final episode of The Breakdown, we explore climate solutions, looking at the difference between individual and systemic change and ultimately why we must all join the climate movement!
9:55 | Climate activists around the world are taking corporations and governments to court in climate litigation cases – and they’re winning.
22:59 | This video looks at ten areas of your life where you can make a positive difference.
34:28 | Even if we could switch today to entirely renewable energy, it will be necessary to remove trillions of tons of CO2 from the atmosphere.
28:26 | Extreme weather is on the rise worldwide: heavy and severe rains, flash floods and landslides have also occurred in Germany. One study warns that seven times as many people will be threatened by flooding in the next 25 years.
12:29 | As electric vehicle sales continue to accelerate around the world, battery charging times and operational lifespan are becoming ever more important questions in the minds of potential EV drivers.
9:15 | Episode four of The Breakdown looks at the intersection between racism and climate change, highlighting how climate change is first and foremost a social justice issue.
12:38 | Today’s youth have inherited a big, unprecedented climate problem to solve — and the eco-anxiety to go with it.
13:36 | Methane is a molecule that causes a bit of a conundrum: On the one hand, it’s a fuel that burns cleaner than coal or oil. On the other hand, it’s a greenhouse gas that’s 86 times more potent than carbon dioxide.
14:10 | Solid state batteries are the long-promised Holy Grail of battery technology. Turns out it’s quite tricky to make them reliable!
9:27 | What if we could not only harness the power of the sun, but actually use it to run the entire planet?
9:02 | We take a look back at all the COPs of the past, the crucial turning points of the Paris climate agreement, and the 2018 IPCC report in order to understand why COP 26 in Glasgow is so important in our attempts to limit temperature rise.
13:44 | A nuclear apocalypse is low risk but a climate catastrophe is already underway. Environmentalists are increasingly arguing to keep nuclear power plants open – but should we?
11:44 | The Port of Blyth boasts a world-class research hub for offshore renewable energy.
12:58 | Offshore wind turbines powered almost 40% of all the UK’s homes in 2020. IEA says there’s enough potential energy out there to power all of Europe, the US and Japan several times over.
9:43 | Fossil fuel companies have been lying to us. They’ve known about climate change for decades, and have buried the science in an effort to continue business as usual.
10:26 | Agriculture takes a huge toll on the earth’s environment by producing massive CO2 emissions and taking up a lot of land. But there is a way to make it more sustainable: Agroforestry.
13:40 | Decarbonisation is the only way out of our climate emergency. But just about every mainstream agency and organisation around the world is advising policymakers not to move too quickly away from fossil fuels for fear of disrupting economies and societies.
6:56 | In The Breakdown: Episode 1, we kick off the series with a big picture look at the history of our planet.
