Amazing, thank you very much, please consider making more videos that has to do with humans' impact on the planet. In addition to the ecological reources I would highly recommend checking out Future of Humanity Foundation in oxford and Nick Bostrom's related writings.

This is such an important topic, thanks for creating this video and sharing it with a global audience. With enough effort and ideas contributed by everybody (and you!) we can make a difference. Get out ask your local administration, school whatsoever to organize events to face this problem!

Not saying you guys blame the east for anything, but news generally does

Love how for once the east doesn‘t just get the blame as per usual, but a fair examination as to why their pollution levels are what they are, plus laying out possible solutions. I really hope the EU does exactly that, at least it‘s what I‘ll be voting for.

Very nice vid as allways

We‘re profiting greatly off of their industrialization, and that in itself could be reason to conciser giving back, as per example helping them build infrastructure, not just take take and take. If we build on our relationship, good things may come of it, apart from clean rivers for the east and clean oceans on our planet.
