- Wade Davis discusses the nature of being Human and what it means to live on Earth at this time. He is a Canadian anthropologist, ethnobotanist, author and photographer whose work has focused on worldwide indigenous cultures, especially in North and South America and particularly involving the traditional uses and beliefs associated with psychoactive plants. Davis came to prominence with his 1985 best-selling book The Serpent and the Rainbow about the zombies of Haiti. Davis is Professor of Anthropology and the BC Leadership Chair in Cultures and Ecosystems at Risk at the University of British Columbia. Davis is an Explorer-in-Residence at the National Geographic Society. Named by the NGS as one of the Explorers for the Millennium, he has been described as “a rare combination of scientist, scholar, poet and passionate defender of all of life’s diversity.” In recent years his work has taken him to East Africa, Borneo, Nepal, Peru, Polynesia, Tibet, Mali, Benin, Togo, New Guinea, Australia, Colombia, Vanuatu, Mongolia and the high Arctic of Nunuvut and Greenland.

Wade Davis is brilliant, he also loves the sound of his voice.
The former isn’t true, the ladder is

Always a great presentation. This is the problem and it disturbs me greatly. There arent alot of views or likes because honestly not many people care and its heart breaking. There are millions of views on garbage channels of drugs and violence. What a great man but we are in big trouble and out of time!!!
I am completely in awe of this man.
How has this only been viewed 124 times? When Wade speaks there is a fire burning in his eyes. Thank you for posting this interview. I will watch more in the days to come.
Lucas Brailsford Thank you, we will post more as we have time there are 70 more of these to come!
Wade Davis really means about The Flu, The Cold, Bacterium Diseases Drug stuff in Countries! Virus Vomiting Puking & Throwing up, Allergies Snipples and Fever Viruses is what's here, People have to Stay Home for 10 Days to get better.
Lucas Brailsford there has been an awakening. Have you felt it?
I met him in the Amazon long ago. The man is amazing.
Absolutely wonderful humane insights... Thanks for posting this.
Excellent reflections. Time well spent. Thanks for sharing this.
AN AMAZING HUMAN BEING
Wonderful and important interview, thanks.
11:39 This is passion for what you teach.
Good thinker and good behave
What a view of life! The description of the **Ethnosphere** is a really fantastic approach to the real human position, wath a little and young we are, only 20 years of human biodiversity recognition. That's my age! I'm studing Ecology and my grandfather doesn't understand what it is yet.
Thanks for this video and Davis work. I say hi from Colombia!
Mariaclara López has to work oooo
I love this talk.
Literally my idol
Love that he isn't so optimistic now
My man Jeff Daniels
Great content. I find the speed of speech a bit too quick to soak in everything he's saying. 75% playback helped.
interviewers volume too low.
Sadly, i could not hear half the video even with headphones. I try to listen to everything Davis says and read his works. They are super informative.
interested in the content, just can't hear the audio...
We are at a evolutionary standstill.
Space maybe the final frontier but it's made in a Hollywood basement.
Give it all back to the buffalo and go to…
Hopium
Is it just me, or does the interviewer sound like Elastigirl from the Incredibles
White man speak on our behalf

We have to be very careful to not wholly fall for the emotional pull that these kinds of arguments make toward ethno regional empathies which come into account primarily via externalization of the internal fear of death. Everything has a a path within our known reality, to the fullest abilities available to us, from non being to being, and back to non being. We often centralize ourselves as all important, under that assumption we feel as though everything we do is holds the destiny of the universe. We know that species die off, and the best killer is natural order, but I hear this man romanticize the days of old when in a kind of equilibrium diversity was great. It seems like a bunch of story telling, not really concerned with truely seeking an understanding, but being lost to poetic drawings of self preservation I the guise of compassion for an other, lost already or, on the verge of being lost. It only can be done by having super confidence in the power of the Western man, not only from a destructive nature, to a nature of understanding ultimates, and than bring able to being a savoir.
I love Wade but he doesn't answer the questions :'(
He does, but on his own terms....love it!!
There is no Question ! Come really , is there a spooon ?
They never do!
