Do volcanoes produce more CO2 than human activity -- a look at Ian Plimer’s claim.

To support this channel, please don’t send me money. I prefer people donate to a charity I support. It’s called Health in Harmony (see my video It funds hospitals and affordable health care to villages on the edge of a national parks, in return for a pledge not to cut down trees. The pledges are monitored, and the result has been a dramatic decrease in deforestation rates and an increase in the health of the local population. Thanks to your generous contributions, the founders are spreading the idea to other countries. See also for an explanation of their work.

My video “Are humans contributing only 3% of CO2 in the atmosphere?“ (see video description for sources) My video “The story of the Earth in 33 minutes“ (see video description for sources) RE “I’ve been very busy since the end of the pandemic.“ We are still technically in a pandemic, because we still fit the technical definition of a pandemic -- i.e. an infectious disease on more than one continent. But as far as my life is concerned -- and the countries where most of my subscribers live -- the pandemic is over. I am fully vaccinated, as are most people I come into contact with. There is still a tiny risk even for vaccinated people, but there’s also a risk of dying from seasonal flu. I have visited a dozen countries in the last few months, and not one of them still has restrictions on mask-wearing, social distancing or freedom of movement. Shops, cafes, bars, restaurants, theaters and sports arenas are all open, with no restrictions. I see no difference to life now than before the pandemic. So de facto, yes, the pandemic is over, and I have been back to work -- hence the reason I’ve been busy. If you are unvaccinated, and therefore vulnerable, then of course the pandemic is still very real. You can still get infected, and you have a much higher chance of dying. But that’s your choice. I can’t put my life on hold for you. See my videos on vaccination and Covid-19 and get informed. Similarly, if you live in China, or a country where vaccinations are low and there are still restrictions, I’m sorry. There the pandemic is also still very real. But I can’t stay home until every single country is over this. In Europe, Australia, North America and many other places, the pandemic is no longer a part of everyday life for the vast majority who are vaccinated.
