I had all sort of 'philosophical' reactions as I watched the video. One was 'wait and see' if this proves to be widely accepted. Another was 'even if this proves to be unrealistic' his concerns appear to be heartfelt and his commitment to pursuing them diligently seems to be strong, so dismissing them out of hand 'in ignorance of respected opinion elsewhere' would probably be hasty. Don't we need to offer a little extra patience with our fallible but often conscientious independent amateur researchers? Aren't these just our peers?

It's somewhat dangerous when those people are saying we should declare a "climate emergency". The main danger is that there is a problem with man-made climate change, but idiots like this who make wild claims are doing more harm than good.

They certainly aren't my peers. I don't make poorly researched misinformation go viral and reduce the level of knowledge within the public. I saw this nonsense posted on Facebook by the same people who post anti-vaccine rants and cry about chemtrails. That's exactly where it belongs.
