Great video. His talk at the end was great.

Yeah, seeing him going there just shows how bad it got.
Also reciting declaration of Independence is a reminder that's what happening now is exactly what pushed founders to start a revolution.

We’re trying to trap carbon underground to keep earth habitable and stable for humans. Coal is trapped carbon. We should keep it trapped instead of exposing it to our atmosphere.

Nice rant.
Every time this topic pops up, Climate Town's compilation of US-presidents, plural, trying to reanimate the coal power corpse with necromantic 'clean coal'-chants lives rentfree in my head.

You guys still use coal? Fucking hell...

Coal is cheap and easily available, I'm not surprised it is still one of the main source of energy

What a confusing video. Halfway through, he starts talking about some online shop and at the end, he plays some online game, neither of which seems to have anything to do with the topic...?

The online shop thing is just usual YouTube sponsor stuff (though it's more self-promotion since he runs the store, it's some charity thing), and he sometimes plays Connections at the end of vlog videos like this.
