Decoding the Weather Machine FULL SPECIAL | NOVA | PBS America

This is the way science should be used for! For the betterment of humanity and protection of nature.

We need to increase the amount of land covered by forests and jungles drastically. They're our best defense against rising temperatures. We're too distracted by technology when nature has so much to offer us at a fraction of the cost and it maintains itself. Better that than the alternative.

Hello I'm 65 about 40 years ago I worked for ept building a delta v power line in Queensland between Rockhampton and nebo, one day we came up on the Connors river roadhouse in the crystal highway, the petrol pumps had been torn out of the concrete along with the roof over them right up to the roadhouse itself, it was like surgery not a window was smashed , the roadhouse owner and his wife verified it was the wind, we could not even speak it was frightening to look at the detail of destruction was like an artist's work . The atmosphere speaks like that

The farmer and his simple yet so effective way he harvests his field....I like this alot. Must save in so much waste too. Green light here 👌

Not sure that I agree with it all, as for the wind turbines, only to give one example, which we know they are not zero carbon emission since their production is very costly: ecologically low-effective... I believe you will understand why. However, for most of the rest of the program, I have to say that I was amazed by the quality of the researches and the narration, which I found really compelling!

Brilliant stuff! I love science and nature, but I always had the sense that people who love the planet seem to hate other people. There are extreemists in all fields, but thoughtfull content like this will bring good resource management to the mainstream.

The one thing you dont hear is that it is greenery that absorbs the carbon, and as a race we have chopped down more trees than at any other time in history because its easy to do. Nobody has said tbat for every tree you chop down you replace it with two of the same kind because trees asorb different amounts, so can take more than others. The other thing is the use of plastic which even today is still on the rise despite knowing that its not only Harmfull to all other life but also to us, and plus we are not very good at cleaning up after ourselves.

@1:24:00 Some parts of Arctic has already warmed by 5C (Barents sea) or even 7C (near sea ice, Svalbard). So these "predicted" temperature changes are partially here already.

You mention the importance of trees but yet we are cutting down old growth trees like they are worth nothing to the us .

Get some PBS in your life.

We need to act NOW!!!!

Sensers are like a box of chocolates, you never know what your going to get.

Given the state the planet's in, it's amazing we still get shows like this, that is still pretty much asking is "is there climate change or not."!

Bravo NOVA!

Great show. I'm Canadian and we bought a pipeline that won't pay for itself for another 50 years...As one of the presenters in the documentary said, we can continue to do nothing but we are digging ourselves a much deeper hole to climb out of, and that has proved to be the truth. We will continue to do nothing substantial and we will leave a world much, much more different than the one we currently inhabit to our children and this is also a fact. The world will go on, the question really is will we?

"most people sense change in weather" Meanwhile, our winter which usually starts at December is now starting from January 20th while the December was warm

PBS be dropping dimes in back to back week!!! Whose cooking this content? 😂

If we could just stop the wars, we would do much better . Taking care of our Oceans and Forests are the most important things we can do as humans who care about this Planet! ♥️ There needs to be co - operation not Confrontation !!

Bravo Dave Legvold.!

Ever wondered why mountainous areas are cooler than industrial lowlands despite the fact it's more closer to the sun.
