China, The US, And The Climate COLLAPSE: Who Is Really Responsible? | Graham Elwood

An urgent environmental analysis and climate breakdown hosted by Graham Elwood for The Political Vigilante. Prompted by an article submission from Patreon supporter Phil Prinsky, Graham reviews alarming data from the Global Carbon Project and Truthdig, revealing that global carbon emissions spiked by 2.7% to a record 37.1 billion tonnes of CO₂.. Citing research from Nature and climate scientists, Graham explains why the timeline to breach the 1.5°C threshold has accelerated to 2030, exposes European gas infrastructure hypocrisies, and outlines the urgent economic potential of renewable energy, grassroots local activism, and a Green New Deal.
