We created two YouTube channels for science. This was back in 2011, a time when the video platform was dominated by videos from climate change deniers, and only few Universities had a channel at all, let alone subscribers in the four digits. It was perplexing, you could find all these videos about Al Gore`s An…
Climate change is endangering fish worldwide, shrinking populations by up to 35% in coastal regions. https://edition.cnn.com/2019/02/28/world/climate-change-fishing-oceans-global-warming-intl/index.html Narrated by Bryan Video via http://pixabay.com Sound effects TRAILER MUSIC ACADEMY https://www.trailermusicacademy.com/free-sample-pack-trailer-tools-vol-1/
It might seem counterintuitive, but global warming plays a role in blasts of bitter cold weather. The reason: It influences the jet stream. Here’s how. https://insideclimatenews.org/news/02022018/cold-weather-polar-vortex-jet-stream-explained-global-warming-arctic-ice-climate-change Q&A: How is Arctic warming linked to the ‘polar vortex’ and other extreme weather? https://www.carbonbrief.org/qa-how-is-arctic-warming-linked-to-polar-vortext-other-extreme-weather

Above is the explanation from YouTube for demonetizing our channel, suggesting that we reuse content on our channel without permissions. However, we reuse frequently public domain content, or content where we were specifically asked to reuse (re-upload) it. Because we cover the YouTube niche climate science subject, the amount of footage and content is naturally…
Today we noticed that YouTube demonetized our channel, citing reused content guidelines. Monetization is required to run advertisements on a YouTube channel, the main source to finance our work. LINK TO PETITION https://www.change.org/p/youtube-youtube-shall-not-demonetize-climate-state We think this is a problem based on the algorithm of YouTube’s AI. We usually have permission to reuse content, alter it…
It might seem counterintuitive, but the dreaded polar vortex is bringing its icy grip to parts of the U.S. thanks to a sudden blast of warm air in the Arctic. https://www.voanews.com/a/science-says-get-used-to-polar-vortex-outbreaks/4763045.html Q&A: How is Arctic warming linked to the ‘polar vortex’ and other extreme weather? https://www.carbonbrief.org/qa-how-is-arctic-warming-linked-to-polar-vortext-other-extreme-weather
