    My common sense tells me that he's so right with what he says here. He's directly addressing the issues we have today and how we can overcome them. It's on us to change things. Not Governments, not institutions or companies. The audience seemed quite disrespectful with all the phone ringing and laughing in the background. Thanks for the upload!

    God, professional dialects. Two years ago I became a bureaucrat (mea culpa, mea maxima culpa) and the jargon was killing me with acronyms and obscure phrases. I started compiling a list to help me keep up, and now it has 5768 acronyms and 1896 glossary items. This grows almost every day.
    A typical acronym:
    WGS-84 World Geodetic System-84
    A typical Glossary entry:
    Additional Primary Payloads
    "Primary payloads are the payload which establishes the LV mission requirements. Additional primary payloads (KPP-2) include a collection of payloads with a set of requirements (reliability, launch rate) that are distinguished from requirements for the KPP-1 Primary Payloads.
    Typically these spacecraft are smaller, more risk tolerant, and support the science and technology mission while Primary Payloads typically support the operational community."
    There are languages smaller than this set. I've become a hero at the office for de-obfuscating this mess.

    Institutional stupidity is more profitable. That's the main problem. We need laws and reasonable thinking about our treatment of the nature, to change our stupidity.

    Cuba is serious in its reforestation and permaculture efforts. The reason we don't know about this is the 60 year US blockade

      But also; the reason Cuba is going forward with this is the US blockade and the economic collapse of the soviet union. The very problem is that the industrial economic process favour the high input reductionistic methods that are causing the ecological problelms. I think we need to adapt to more self-sustainable food production.

    My common sense makes me feel like this is a telemarketer trying to sell me an agricultural strategy using a new religion. Don't get me wrong, a lot of the big ideas sound quite good to my leftist/anarchist ears, but I feel like the solution isn't actually is what it preaches to be. The herding practice does just seem like a novel strategy to solve a problem of desertification, not any more or less "holistic" than any other strategy. Again, I like some of the philosophy here, but when things are blown out of proportion (ie a really radical philosophy is applied to sell a land management practice) it makes me feel like I am being sold something or being converted into a faith. xD
    Also that land cover tax sounds fairly hard and costly to implement. I am fairly sure farmers wouldn't appreciate the uncertainty of being taxed on something they can't really measure themselves or predict, nor the "freedom" of being given no official guidance on meeting even more bizzare incredibly technical standards. I do not think kids know any of this; personally I had to listen to a TED talk to even realize this was a problem. Even the author had to kill so many elephants to realize this was a problem. Things in this talk just aren't adding up, unfortunately.

      Watch Gabe browns' video on holistic crop production - ua-cam.com/video/9yPjoh9YJMk/v-deo.html Here is the Africa centre for holistic management se some before and after pictures - www.africacentreforholisticmanagement.org/ Worldwide the application of Holistic management to regenerative farming is showing rapid improvement in the environment in all the climates I have worked in.

    Could be the Curse. After Cain spew Able. Ye shall till the soil and it shall not return her Strength. The curse is not if you till the soil it won’t be strong, that’s scientific. The curse is: A mindset to till. And to pay $Millions fot a J D with 36” plowshare.

      Cain was the first in recorded history that tilled the soil.
      God came with a prediction, not a commandment.
