    That people like this guys team, and many other unsung heroes who are working to try and save the earth and all that dwell therein is encouraging and inspiring. I'm doing my best as a Feijoa plant breeder to lift yields, increase nutrient and bio actives content in what often feels like a lone mission. Unfortunately many people with disposable income spent it on vanity projects like an overseas trip, or remodeling their kitchen, instead of helping solve real world problems - even in their local community. We all have choices every day, even the poorest of us, and each choice can place our actions on Johans final chart as part of that green arrow towards survival, or all those red ones towards death.

      @John Doe There are many mass extinctions in the past, and some scientists living today say that the present rate of species extinctions is higher than at any time in history. There are always choices about how we do things, and new jobs can come from new solutions. e.g Solar in the USA employs many times the number of people employed in the coal industry.

    A single human could help protect nature, help with reforestation and help develop modern sustainable technologies for the future
    Are we humans going to be a pest in this world or are we going to be the saviors of the dying natural ecosystems?

    The problem with this is that it seemingly relieves us „normal“ people from our duty to change, by allowing us to think that the change must come from „above“. Each and every one still has to do all the small things which will amount to something in the big picture, like avoiding plastic, eating less meat, reducing electronic waste, speaking up for equality, vote after informing oneself, etc...

    • @scerb100
      @scerb100 Před 5 lety

      Ordinary Speaker while I agree with the fact that the average citizen shouldn’t be lazy about it with a top down approach, you have to consider- we are currently aware of a lot of these things, Like waste, and we know there are resources to do it better. But instead because it’s not as convenient or a little extra money, we choose not to believe and already expect someone else to do it.
      We live in a capitalist consumer society, everything has to be changed through the ways people consume. Everything operates between the transaction of money. It’s the only way we can enact sustainable measures. You vote for policy, it’s enacted by your dollar.
      Government policies need to force companies that make what we consume sustainable. While at that, government policies can mandate there is requirement to teach civic engagement to normalize again that as a species we are social group based and need to work as a team. Also for people to put in the amount of effort each should be doing, they may need more personal time, which the poorest people often have the least amount of resources to participate in a sustainable consumer society or have the time to make habitual changes, because most of their time and energy is spent working. With policies set in place to both mediate inequality and policies to provide people with sustainable products it will no longer have to be that those who are well off have a better ability to do those things, because ultimately that still isn’t going to aid with climate action.
      Government policies don’t have to mean that the state demands to teach or enact the changes to a uniform agenda, it just means these things are required and as long as you meet them in a graded efficiency, do you.

    I’m not even going to look through these comments, not that I typically do anymore, anyway.. I’m quite certain that there will be plenty of hardline right wing ppl freaking out, calling climate change a hoax, calling this dude an “SJW” bc he dared to talk about equality, and calling him a social bc he dared talk about wealth redistribution. You can settle down, my fascy friends, he’s clearly still talking about economic growth within a capitalist paradigm.
    Speaking of capitalism, I wonder if the model accounted for the crises of capitalism we’re seeing right now: the rise of hardline, authoritarian far right, and yes, fascist leaders and movements, across the globe. By the sounds of it, the economic goals that the model seeks to hit wouldn’t be workable within the current neoliberal economic era, and I do think moving towards a social democrat state would improve economic conditions in such a way that would push back against this far right movement, but economics aren’t good enough to account for the problem. He mentioned education, and a lack of education definitely accounts for the problem to a large degree, but that’s only going to be especially effective on future generations, and much less effective on folks currently brainwashed by these movements.
    This is not a small problem, it’s an existential threat to life on this planet (eg - Bolsonaro’s privatization of the rainforest, Trump writ large, etc), and it absolutely has to be addressed/extinguished if a plan like this is ever going to work. Let’s just hope that can happen without serious war, maybe world war, maybe even nuclear war, taking place. I’d really like to know if this model accounts for all of these things, bc if it doesn’t, it seems rather incomplete.

    Technology has taken away humanities self reliance, because the knowledge of how to do things manually has been forgotten. If you don’t know how to make flour, or sugar, or salt, or yeast, how could you dream of making bread. What part of the wheat makes flour? What does real wheat look like? Where do you mine salt? How do you grow yeast? See you’re doomed. What part a cow is sirloin? How do you make gun powder? How do you Smith steel? What metals are milled and mixed to make steel?If you don’t know those things you can’t get food. You can’t even make a knife. And you won’t learn because you have money. Money is the root of all evil. Smart people don’t need money. Rich people pay some mart people to do things for them. The more money you have the less need you have for intelligence.
    Medicine has destroyed our chances entirely because we no longer have the immune strength to fight pathogens without medicine.
    Wealth has made us lazy weak and stupid because we can pay others to solve our problems instead of solving them ourselves.
    Get rid of needless crap and be happy with basic necessities. That whole list is bullshit because #1 on the list is no poverty. Poverty is associated with financial attainment, aka money. Money only works if there are hired guns to enforce its use. Since you don’t know how to make your food from scratch, and you are too spoiled learn how, you need money.
    I don’t.
    GMO crops are plants that have seeds that do not sprout. Remember seedless watermelon? Seeds that sprout must be bought from MonSanto corporation. Growers must by new seed every year. In order to produce food. This is the roots of Supply side economics. The root of human slavery on earth.
    A corporation controls the food supply and we are forced to do as they please. They hire police and military to enforce there regime. They choose the politicians we vote for and pay the government paycheck. They have already disarmed the public by selling us inadequate weaponry to combat the military. Do you think a 9mm will beat a tank? If we revolt, in any way, they will deploy the national guard and repress us.
    So we are stuck. For the moment. Next time you think of Richie rich as smart. Think twice. He’d be dead if it weren’t for me.

      This is the far left trying to worm their way in on the grounds of needing to save the planet from ourselves. While the planet does need some help to protect itself from our misgivings, I don't subscribe to the planet and its people becoming socialistic along the way. We are not ready to have the utopian Star Trek future on us just yet.

      No, what we really need is fewer generic and impetuous statements of no consequence.

      Communism kills, how much more bodies do you need to see on the pile before your willing blindness, greed and vanity is satisfied.
