What If We Painted Earth White?

video description

Rating: 4.0; Vote: 1
Imagine a white picket fence around a white house, with a white driveway and a white car. And it-s not just your house that's white. It's also the road, sidewalks, and every single building. It looks boring and sterile, but it could be the future. And it could help save our world. How much paint would you need? Why would your electricity bill be lower? Why would white paint fight climate change?

Usual climate alarmism. In the Cambrian, the Earth was 10C hotter and 3. 2% CO-. Life carried on. We had two Snowball earths. Life carried on. we had 5 previous mass Extinctions. Yet we're here as a consequence. Weve had at least 3 cataclysmic meteor strikes big enough to wipe out the dinosaurs. Yet life persists. The truth of the matter is earth and species adapt. Species come, species go. Ecological niches are created, species evolve to fill them. Itas how Darwinian evolution works. Ecological niches vanish, and so does the species that have evolved to fill them. Earth doesn't care about the temperature or the CO2 levels. Life adapts, thats why we still have life on this planet. 10C hotter and 5% CO2 wont make a blind bit of difference to the Earth, life evolves to fit in. You are being scammed.

Right off the bat there's a problem. the extinction of other species is happening now it's not even waiting for climate change.
It's happening because of greed and growth because of economy because of capitalism because of corporate power over govt Because of corruption. And because we will not hold those in power accountable or ourselves.
Stop using corporations as much as possible, grow as much of your own food as you can.
buy second hand, Think about the foot print you leave behind.
Being human has nothing to do with economy, money. Stop being complaint to power.
Do not accept the digital id the vaccine the pass. And in so doing you become free.
They are controlling you with fear, find your voice, We have the power not them.

I can already think of a couple of problems not mentioned in this video:
1. The world is 70% water. So even if we paint every land white, it will only be 30% covered and won-t cool the planet that efficiently. We can-t paint the ocean white, not without poisoning the marine life lol.
2. Road accident will skyrocket as drivers struggle to keep their eyes open from the blinding light during the day and even if they have very good sunglasses, the white road would camouflage the buildings next to it and other cars so they would still crash easily
3. I don-t know if the animals or even plants will adapt to a white world. Who knows how much more extinction will come with such a large project that changes how Earth looks like by this degree

So basically areas that wouldn't normally have grass lawns (little water ) could have higher reflecting lawns and higher reflecting roads. Street lights could be solar right now. All kinds of simple ideas to quit wasting, why aren't we doing that now?

Quick answer, painting things white reflects heat off the earth- so in reality painting everything White or even just roofs would help a lot. however it would be very dangerous to fly and you-d need sunglasses all the time.
reply

It would be boring. I like lavender, red, mint green, and periwinkle blue. Those are my fave colors. Colors add some pizzazz, and create beauty. White is very bright in summer sunlight, and I would hate that.
reply

Actually painting 1% of the earth white would be enough to reverse climate change. Painting the whole planet white (if that were possible, we'd condemn the planet into a horrible ice age

Why does the intro of this video remind me of an old song name -i'm blue- by Eiffel 65? XD
And yes i know that this what if video is somewhat old and i respond a little late. :)

Now lets turn everything black steel and metal and then go outside on a hot summer day in Mali while wearing a perfect black 3 feet thick jacket with full black fur all in it

When I lived in Florida I painted my roof there was a gray shingle white and it dropped the temperature in my attic by about 20 degrees and my AC bill was most reasonable ever
reply

When humans will start making electricity by using nuclear fusion much global warming will be stopped also there is fossil fuels left only for next hundred years.
reply

Are you saying 0. 07 degrees lower compared to 7 degrees higher in 2300 if we don-t paint anything white? 0. 07 degrees lower with no context sound ridiculous low.
reply

If we'd painted everything white, we could also mess with local winds (rising and incoming. That could result in way more damaging climate change than expected.
reply

Boring planet and blinding everyone. Car crashes increase. they've been screaming climate change for years. Meanwhile, our sun is actually getting hotter.
reply

A billionaire must buy a large area of land and cover the land with mirror. We reflect 100% light on that land. That us too much just for a rich man.

Painting the world white sounds like people deciding the go light mode after reading the entire boble
