  1. Hey thanks. I appreciate that.

  3. They actually did ask the question. It didn't make the cut

  4. Thanks. I honestly appreciate that.

  5.  @Aldo-ed8gl  haha. Thanks. It is me. Yes. I would like that actually. It's funny to me when people use this argument. I've never said I'm against any of those things you mentioned. I'm all for cleaner air and helping the environment. I really am. People think that if im a skeptic I'm suddenly against anything that will help the planet. It's not the case at all. Those are great things. I can still be skeptical of climate change and it's impact on the earth and humanity while wanting a cleaner healthier planet. I think they're separate things and they shouldn't be used to guilt people into taking action.

  6.  @zeruth467  Very astute. You're smart. You read me like a book. That's funny. It was a good time but it was a little frustrating. Obviously people came in w what they wanted to say but none of it was challenged at all. It's kind of a weird dynamic. Kind of just a bunch of disparate unconnected thoughts of individuals. But I like Jubilee. It was fun.

  7. I totally agree. Didn't understand a word he said.

  8.  @Lola_t  definitely one of the funnier comments I've read

  9.  @turtle_goddess9522  haha. It sure is. Thanks. That's basically my goal. I didn't wanna be annoying and pretentious. I figured I can disagree politely :) It was funny being there and hearing everyone's comments. I had similar reactions hearing them live. Props to Jubilee.

  10. There was a girl I noticed who commented who I wouldn't mind falling in love with haha. It's not the worst idea.

  11. Thank you. It was a lot of fun.

  12.  @Aldo-ed8gl  Definitely more skeptical that humans have impact on it. And more importantly what would we even do about it? I rarely hear solutions from people, just problems. They don't even tell me what I'm doing wrong, just that I'm doing something terribly wrong. If it is a result of human impact over hundreds of years it's doubtful we would be able to do much to change that in a short amount of time. I appreciate you bringing up that perspective from outside the US. And it makes sense. I just have a hard time seeing how A is connected to B necessarily. It's a large complex problem and I think it's easy to try to pin solutions to certain things when it might be a variety of real factors at play. I don't think a complex problem can be addressed so simply. It's easy to point to something and say look, that's the problem right there, that's what's causing all this. How things are connected, what influence they have and what to do about it, that's where my skepticism comes in.

  13.  T K  first I think you're mixing up Alex w me. He wrote the book, not me. And I totally agree w you two about intelligence. I think one of the smartest things someone can do is acknowledge what they don't know.

  14.  @alesha9744  I have a lot of doubts about a lot of things people say. That's my main concern. I have a hard time getting from point A to point B logically. I feel like it's a big jump w climate change. People like to solve problems and so it's easy to blame it on something right in front of you when really there could be so many factors actually at play. So I'm just not on board. But I'm glad I seemed pretty open minded. I like to think I am which is one thing I love about Jubiliees videos. They mainly expose you to different ideas in an honest fair way. I'm all about that. It was a lot of fun.

  15.  @saralien4632  Thanks. It's not the facts I'm denying. It's the conclusion drawn from the facts. It's the jump in logic from point A to point B. I'm skeptical of the reasons for the facts, what they mean, what caused them, and what might solve them.

  16.  @zeruth467  well I am him so just curious. Haha. Haven't seen a comment like this. Interesting thought/observation.

  17.  @frances8971  yeah that was confusing. Keith ended up switching like every answer. And I did notice it looked like she was talking about Keith but it was actually Alex who wrote the book. No worries though.

  18. They actually did kind of ask us that. It got cut.

  19. Thank you. That's exactly what I think. That's exactly how I think about differing opinions. We can disagree and still be civil. I can be ok w people who think differently than me. That's me in the video btw.

  20. yay. you got my point. thank you.

  21.  @jaspuhh.  haha. Yeah of course. It was a lot of fun. Props to Jubilee. I love their videos. I wanted to try it out. And reading the comments is hilarious. I thought a lot of similar things as they said them real time :)

  22.  @zeruth467  Of course. That's awesome. I mean it. I've read almost all the comments and no comments were anything like yours. It was very insightful. You understood a lot of how I thought and felt based on my behavior and how I acted. It's impressive. I like psychology too and trying to read people. So it seems like your read the situation pretty well. Haha. Cool to read your comment.

  23.  @emanuelacarriero6317  Thank you. Your English is perfect haha. It doesn't sound broken at all.

  24.  @frances8971  thanks. Yeah tbh I didn't really understand a lot of what Alex was saying. I did kind of have a headache at the end of the shoot. I pretty much knew how people would react to the video which is probably why I acted how I did. It's all good. I had a fun time.

  25.  c c  seriously what does white or black, male or female have to do w climate change? haha.

  26.  @SexierMink1699  what do you mean
    2
  27.  @alesha9744  Very very sudden. I tend to push back on most sudden problems. Corona virus is a small example. People act like it'll be the biggest thing ever and the death of everyone. Ok. Ok. Calm down. The chances are so little. People love to jump to conclusions and freak out. That's all. I don't like anything where everyone just jumps on board like a fad. It almost seems trendy.

  28. Shout out to Jubilee. I loved being a part of the video. After reading through most of the comments I would like to mention one thing. So many people saying none of us were actually scientists. First of all, who said we were or needed to be? Can regular people not have an opinion on climate change? No one said we're here to educate you or inform you. No one asked me if I was a scientist when they cast me. No one is pretending to be a scientist. Secondly, do any of you have a background in science? Then how can you say your opinion is any more valid than ours? That makes zero sense. If someone has to have a degree in science to talk about climate change then 98% of you shouldn't be allowed to comment, which is preposterous. Anyway it was a fun time. Thanks for all the really nice (often hilarious) comments about me. Don't let this video ruin you. It's just a video with a few opinions. You don't have to hate. People can disagree and it will be ok. Keith's bear comment was a little flippant and probably a little in jest. I doubt he actually believes that. Free speech is a great thing even if you disagree. If you shut down others opinions how can say you have the right to your own? Thanks for watching! I appreciate being a part of Jubilee. It was fun.

  29.  @Cocoleaf731  haha. I appreciate that.

  30. Maybe I'm there to show not all climate skeptics think the same?

  31. Interesting... How do you figure?

  32.  @zeruth467  that's awesome. Seriously. I can understand that can be really annoying but I honestly think it's a gift in many ways too. You can do a lot with that and help a lot of people. The world needs people like you. You're right. Most people are not like that and it's their loss. Thanks for your thoughts.

  33.  @simranjain6884  haha. I hate to admit it but I don't really have insta... I know. Don't hate me.

  34.  @simranjain6884  haha. Idk. Any other way of contacting you?

  35. And has it happened? Nope. Therefore no proof of it happening.

  36.  @applelias  I could give numerous examples of science predicting the future inacurately. Scientists can't forecast the weather out more than a week. You expect me to believe they can predict decades out? Not gonna happen.

  37. Thanks a lot. I appreciate it. I'd be more than willing to have conversations as well :)

  38. Haha. That's hilarious. Although I have to admit I did volunteer beforehand.

  45.  @ashlyhen  yeah for sure. It's interesting to hear what people think. Most of it makes me chuckle.

  47. I was there. It would be two hours if they did.

  48.  @haydenknurck8313  it would be interesting. It actually got kinda heated at times. They definitely smoothed out the edges w the editing.

  51. Wow. That's a very honest comment. You're one of the few people to acknowledge the reality of the situation. Good for you.

  52. Because I'm awesome :)

  53. I'm not really sure what you're so worried about. Don't you believe in evolution. Don't you believe in the big bang? Nature does its thing regardless of what we humans do. If we need to adapt and change and evolve we will. Apparently we've been doing it for millions of years. You suddenly think that right now at this moment in history we're doomed?

  54. Hahaha

  55. Then doesn't that mean you're ok w climate change?
