I like how he's talking about being humble and obtaining wisdom from nature.
Architecture would be a whole new thing if every thought about it like he does!
possibly my favorite TED talk of all time
i think this video needs a lot more sharing and a lot more likes
+Abhishek Badani Agreed!
Abhishek Badani it has waaaay more likes.
this is incredible, what he's talking about is my dream
I like how he puts it "a challenge to our ingenuity". Great talk, thumbs up.
Knowledge is power. We study so that we can make the world a better place. Once we transform it in a way that we're killing it, we gotta stop, look, think about it and study again for new solutions to new problems.
This is exactly the kind of thing we need. This design philosophy leads to structures that are efficient, sustainable, environmentally friendly, and still very effective at carrying out their purpose. Praise God for how incredible a Creator He is!
Connor Hoffman Amen, brother! Amen!
Thank you! for giving credit where….
this is exactly why I love and study biology , we can learn so much from nature
Brilliant! Iove these types of talks!
Fabulous! It's great to hear such positive language about environmental issues! Nature is so amazing. It's looks as if all those systems were designed that way.
absolutely brilliant, we need more people working on things like these
that's why i subscribed to TED, thx for the video!!!
perfect.....absolutely perfect....
Thanks Michael - awesome talk.
one of the shortest presentation of ideas on TedTalks. I believe in nature as does he, as we all should. Reconnect and we shall live prosperously. Really inspiring!!! thumbs up
it's a total shame that we as humans don't get along enough to make things like was just seen in the video more abundant. It's brilliant and needed.
I have to say, this advertising they do at the end actually got me to listen to all of it. I just spent the entire time reading comments and talking to a friend about the video while this commercial was on.
this was one of the best TED videos in a while... WOW
this kind of material kids need i schools
one of the best talks ever.
one of the best vids on youtube for sure.
this is what we soo much need in these times.
the best talk I have ever seen
Truly inspired. Amazing.
Straight up, this was a great talk
I just loved it! ❤️💐
Would be great to collaborat with more people!
One thing I love about this is that he doesn't say we have give stuff but have more, do it better, and chaeper. Going green or your choice of word should not be about giving up things but getting newer better smarter things
thank you; interesting and uplifting
respect!
Best talk in a while. Perhaps I see my own career
MINDBLOWING thank you!!!
very interesting, more talks like that, TED
A Good TED Talk after a loooong time..
Very nice! Reminds me of Jacque Fresco's future city ideas in the Venus Project.
Great TED talk!
great talk!!!
brilliant and exciting ideas
🙏Thank you.
What a fine talk.
Its all sounds great, but i would love to know how much energy it requires to produce ETFE... and if the waste produced when creating it is higher than that of glass. Because if its more than glass... then it defies the whole thesis and point of being sustainable.
AMAZING..
this was a fantastic talk...just like watching young Jacque Fresco:) great ideas!
We need to put this effect into planning. Right now.
great talk
Fantastic!
brilliant! finally.
Good job mate!
Awesome!
Now that's a TedTalk! I keep hearing great things about biomimickery. Humanity should gain lots of progress from this. To see the Sahara being reforested during my lifetime would blow me away.
I'm confident humanity will make it through the next few decades, save for a cataclysmic event, like a meteorite (or WMD misuse). The amount of innovations and discoveries currently underway give me loads of optimism.
Finally - a TED video where I understood the time line of the Rolex Watch.
I'm trying to find a second like button because this is an amazing TED talk
Inspiring!
WOW, I'm leaning to biomimicry for my barch thesis and this is a big motivation
Hope your thesis went well! I have mine this year.
@gaiagale I concur completely; after seeing Paul's speech at TED on Six Ways Fungi Can Save The World, I became an amateur mycologist almost overnight and have learned to take care of quite a few species now. It's a lot like gardening but with a lot more water and sterility, and the payoff are foods that taste like animals but have the health benefits we typically assume were plant-only. Shiitake and oyster mushrooms are fantastic cooked; haven't had the shaggy mane, but I think I will now ^.^
Does anyone know where that animation of earth's photosynthetic activity came from? Is it available somewhere?
wow that was awesome... i need a watch..
lol
Eloquent, direct to the point, simple yet fool of wisdom, the guy is spectacular and thanks so much for mentioning my Country Bolivia with such a great connotation, because is humiliating and unfair that my Country is referenced only as fine cocaine producer, my Country is a normal one.
Way to go, Lex Luthor! Nice video, inspiring and full of hope.
Inspiring!!! :)
@volound I'm not sure how much I agree with behe's particular version of "Intelligent design," but I must admit, nature seems pretty darned intelligent!
I would ammend "solar" economy to renewable economy, there are many eco-friendly energy-gen technologies
Interesting examples
I was going to say that using carbon nanotubes, like the Japanese plan on doing with the pyramid(shimizu), but I think this is much more cost-efficient. Great work!
Brilliant
Da vinci and Antoni Gaudi used nature and incorporated it into their architecture,inventions and art. We could learn so much from Nature... 1:00
Weird long Rolex ad at the end
my teacher is making me watch this.
@lockcraw Indeed, and this is the type of specific proposal that should be looked at. Of course, I'm sure there are a myriad of problems, but its something worth fiddling with. I would much prefer to hear something down-to-earth like that than something that seems to suggest we could absorb even a 1/10th of a percent of the total solar energy that bathes our planet.
Nice "timing" for the rolex watch commercial.
@PVanderston black both absorbs and radiates heat faster than any other colour.
at night there is no sunlight to absorb, so the black just radiates heat away from itself very efficiently.
Resource Based Economy, we need that, the rest will come.
good job
Ill be working with Paul in July
i had to do this cuz of school
@MatsMinds They could be made of Mylar. Much like the inflated plastic film roof of the biodome.
also: concentrated-solar furnaces can melt glass to make mirrors.
@dootzky I think I've been watching some alternate universe version of TED where most talks are pretty interesting.
The Fremen of Arakris would be so proud of this!
Yep! Zeitgeist FTW :))
!) Radical increases in resource efficiency.
2) Closed-loop system.
3) Solar economy.
Lets get to it!
we still are a part from nature,we just want to develop our own nature.
Any reason why the idea of building these seawater greenhouses has not been considered for areas in the USA, for example California?
capitalists won't gain that much profit from zero waste designed infrastructures.
most likely lack of funding
I would want to contribute to this. Where to begin? Does anyone know?
@Silverstarlightt Its not the big companies that would fight this its the curnt system. A closed loop's efficiency would let it under cut the curnt liner system. In some US cities the start of a closed loop system has begone. A closed loop works on both large and small sacle.
The Green Lex Luther!!
In that case, why not do it in the Thar Desert in Rajasthan (India)? That area is very stable and tranquility.
Wow... this guy is genius. If only people didn't suck so much we could actually go ahead with this...
Neri Oxman and Michael Pawlyn should team up!
@HashDylan Agreed.
@gaiagale Yup, I concur completely. That's one way in which our technology can account for; until we start building things on the microscopic scale, much of the rest of the technology we can squeeze from this method will have to wait.
Fungi, for example: Paul Stamets is currently pushing for the use of mushrooms that eat "waste" (some microbes and fungi can even eat nuclear waste and nasty hydrocarbons); we don't have to re-engineer anything to make them work, we just put them on site.
I cried halfway watching this
Concerning the ad at the video's end: How many people wearing Rolex's take them swimming at 12 thousand feet below sea level?
What kind of waste is produced from ETFE and is there a way to utilize the waste in some way. Or do you know of a possible alternative to ETFE?
@dootzky richard dawkins was on TED talks xd...even dan dannett
loooooooovvve it
@dookiecheez you know where this project would take off? Dubai.
It has the desert/beach landscape, the money, and the will power.
Perfect place to start
@RickeyRamone the beetle flies towards forrest fires, from upto 80kms away. I think fire is necessary for it to breed or something.
Shit, this is amazing.
Can i mirror this video?
I'm studying chemistry and THIS is the reason why
