'If We Don't Protect Nature We Can't Protect Ourselves' Harrison Ford | Extinction Rebellion

- Опубліковано 20 вер 2024
- We are facing an emergency resulting from our toxic economic and political system. The way we relate to each other and to nature is destroying Earth’s capacity to sustain life.
Unending economic growth and profits drawn from a planet with limited resources is causing gross inequality, poverty, mass misery, and species extinction.
We are sold an illusion that consumption will bring purpose and happiness into our lives, yet this systemic consumption is threatening our very existence. It is based on unjust and unethical land use and ownership, unsustainable and increasing amounts of debt and enslavement of individuals.
Power and money is concentrated in the hands of the few, while the masses struggle to simply survive. It is causing climate breakdown and biodiversity collapse.
As Greta Thunberg has been saying since the ‘Declaration of Rebellion’ last October 31:
'We can no longer save the world by playing by the rules. Because the rules have to be changed.
Everything needs to change. And it has to start today.
So, everyone out there, it is now time for civil disobedience. It is time to rebel.’

"Only when the last tree is cut, the last fish is caught, and the last river polluted; when to breathe the air is sickening, you will realize that wealth is not in bank accounts and that you can not eat money". - Alanis Obomsawin, 1972
(NOTE - This is a correction from the Cree Proverb originally posted. This quote actually originated from Alanis Obomsawin, a Native American (Abenaki) filmmaker, singer, artist and activist.)
I had a Greenpeace sticker for almost 15 years on my hallway mirror. Every morning before leaving the house I saw that sticker and tried to abide by those words.
@@Deceneu66 I used to love Greenpeace until I found out that they opposed Sea Shepherd which made me realise that they don't really believe in their cause as much as they should.
I haven't paid any attention to them since. Maybe they used to be better because those words are very powerful.
The First Nations really did know how to live "with" the Earth instead of "on" it.
@Julie- AMEN!

"Stop giving power to people who don't believe in science."
@Marc Whitakay do you think guns kill people or the person pulling the trigger does? what a silly thing to say. science being used in short sighted applications and human greed is what causes pollution and deforestation. the tools science gives us will be what allows us to turn this around. its not the fault of science, its the hands of old greedy fools that wield the science
@Marc Whitakay no, greed destroyed the human race. We have known about climate change since the 60's. Big oil companies made science a political point.
Stop breeding and stop consuming and all will be fine.
@Marc Whitakay Science provides a range of tools. The choice of what to do with those is politics.
@Marc Whitakay wrong. Science is waaay ahead, but is being stopped by big corporations. We already have enough technology and knowledge to intertwine nature with our technologies to reinforce both sides. But many greedy corps don't want those because the money will be allocated to a different technology sector, so it's being postponed for as much as they possible can. and on the other side people fear change so they go about it too carefully because of many of the following: change of the structure of their lifes, maybe they must think differently, afraid to give up stuff they already own, afraid they lack knowledge to grow with new trends. Then you have the people who think nature and men have nothing to do with climate change and don't believe we have any impact on it AND you have people that stop progression bc we come to close to some religious god and men can't be in the same level as god, so they counter progression as much as possible.
In short: If we all could collaborate on this matter globally and every nation will share it's fair part in money and resources and we all agree that measures can, must and are going to be taken without resistance of any kind of corp. or groups of people and we provide the scientists, helpers, engineers and all they need at that moment, it's not only wonderfull for the health of the world, but also for the next generation technology sectors where billions of people could actually have a job in.

Powerful message!
Sadly, right wing conservativies are too stupid and greedy to even accept or admit that there is a problem. You can fix a problem if you can't even get everyone to accept the absolute fact that there is a problem that needs fixing.
@@kylegesin7178 Strong attachments to political parties and inflammatory behaviors associated with all opinions grouped into one or the other category is the true underlying issue. With everyone arguing so much there's very little chance to move forward and do something productive as a people United together. 50% of the population is still more than enough to destroy this planet and people. As much as it pains us, the universe does not revolve around Americans. This issue has to be addressed as a people one another alike. Every time you call a right-wing supporter stupid, racist or intolerant without knowing the person at all you've lost a chance to help someone. I've seen many people can change their political views but never while under attack
If he has children or grandchildren, their lives are in jeopardy, and so are ours.
Bro he speaking to become more famous he never plant any tree in his life maybe he don't know how to plant tree.🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
"Nature doesn't need people. People need Nature" damn straight that's right
Humans are useless, we just have to eat fruits and shit seeds in the forest, that's our only "role" in the cycle of life.
Its a bit wrong but strong statement, when mankind does not spread life in the universe, it willl extinct on earth at least when the sun does shut down.
But he is right we are so living on the costs of nature and not giving back at all,
we are burning our own house we are living in and closing the door from inside with our child on the arms,
so ignorant and foolish - mankind did totally forgot his task in Biology and DNA - it is Surviving and not getting belly fat.
Well nature does need us because we provide the CO2 that’s it absorbs
@@thewigon we talking animals when we die the non talking animals will inherited the world .
Damn, you pretty bb got to save u
What a powerful speech.
It is incredible to think, that, with so much on the line, this crisis, we are all facing, is not on the top of everyone's priority list. Instead, what do we see? Greed. The hunger for power and money, that has become entirely useless to us decades ago.
We are connected, so why do we not work as one? Why is it, that survival is only second to pleasure at the cost of everything? How ignorant are we and how ignorant will we continue to be?
We are humanity. Our strength lies in cooperation. So work together for crying out loud, lest we face annihilation at our own hands.
The ape attacking the bulldozer has me in tears,our greed has no bounds
The Orangutan was not attacking the machine. They were using the machine to get it off the log for capture. These loggers were destroying it's home forest.

It’s up to us. Accept the challenge
Personally I'm not very optimistic about the survival of this "present version of mankind". Our technology has outpaced our wisdom, and our greed has outpaced our compassion.
Whether it's natural or man-made, our Extinction is closer than we think.
I feel the same same way. Not very hopeful at at all.
as it should be - the up and coming generation has an abominable mindset and its best to end them before they metastasize. Given the opt, they would create a world that makes Black Mirror look like a disney movie
We won't go extinct the planets deterioration will eventually force us to move to other planets I assume most of will die but the human race will survive but you can slow this by recycling lighting fewer fires and don't waste water or electricity
@@oliverryan2451
Sorry Oliver, our extinction will come long before ANY planets "deteriorate". And we will be damn lucky if we survive long enough to advance enough to colonize the moon or Mars... but their survival would depend on a stable and peaceful Earth anyway. I don't see it. But I have no desire to dampen your enthusiasm and optimism! 😉👍
@@oliverryan2451 we will never move beyond Earth, sorry Oliver. The idea that somewhere there's a safe place just waiting for us is nothing but a fantasy...an expensive fantasy which will leads to nowhere. It's the mythology of our time.

That's a very good point - Mykhedelic *****!
I love the Earth, just as the majority of people do! But some corporations are still destroying the planet for PROFIT! We should not have unregulated profit at any cost! We should only have up to $1 Billion maximum total assets allowed per person! And NO MORE! If that were enforced there would be many more millionaires and $1 Billionaires. Having an absolute maximum earnable would make sense, since a free market is not a FAIR market!
We should have a FAIR MARKET, not a free market! Where in a free market, people are allowed to make any amount they want regardless of how much destruction they do! In a FAIR Market everyone would be treated as equals with hopefully the lowest wages would be $15,000 per year, subsidized by rich people and government taxes! And the highest wages would be the amount to keep any individual's total assets to $1 Billion dollars or less!
The majority of people want FAIRNESS! I want Fairness for all lifeforms on Earth and elsewhere! Fairness does NOT include unlimited profit! All Billionaires should decide to give away any amount above a billion dollars that they have in assets! They could fund 3rd world persons or they could even just line the pockets of their friends, families and employees! But the Billionaires should not keep all their money to themselves! That's Hoarding, and hoarding is considered an illness! Maybe there could be a compassion medicine, maybe from marijuana? Since that's legal in Canada now! And anyone willing to keep more than $1 Billion dollars for themselves should be prescribed to take it. To see if that would make them more compassionate.
Even Billionaires are people though, and some of what they sell may be good, so don't persecute Billionaires, just encourage them to give away anything above $1 Billion dollars in assets!
I believe in Peace and Fairness, and Heaven on Earth for all lifeforms in existence. Try to spread Heaven on Earth To all lifeforms everywhere! That would be a Noble Goal!
Thank-you! May YHWH God And Jesus Christ bless you! And May YHWH God And Jesus Christ bless the EARTH!
Thank-you YHWH (God of the Bible's original name) God, and Jesus Christ!
I love you YHWH God, and Jesus Christ!
Amen! Amen! Amen!

this year alone me and my family planted over 1000 trees. It was very hard
Karolis 1 the gods and the elements thank you for your hard work. Mother Nature will bless you
There is an ancient technique that was used for turning a desert back into a forest. They plant and graze animals by sections. When the animals are moved to the next section everything grows because of the ground being naturally covered by the herd of animals and restoring the ground back to normal. That tiny few in the world are now using this technique instead of burning the entire field of old crops to replant. We are going to start doing that on one of our islands.that has the entire island destroyed by the military as a test site for navy/marines. We’ve tried replanting so many native trees but nothing works because the dirt has no nutrients, soft sand like dirt, cracked underground watersheds ect. The animal grazing technique so far has slowly started to naturally restore its foundation. However, 2020 the worlds first super computer at MIT prediction has been correct and that will be the final year we have to tackle the problem. If not the destruction we’ve done will be irreversible and by 2040 the air will start to become toxic. Then by 2065 no human will be around nor will the planet be habitable to us. Sad, how the drastic over population and the big industries still are grandfathered in dumping wastes into our water and how river dams no longer serve a purpose and made certain salmon go extinct ect. People all should be taken to the heavy polluted areas, drink the polluted tap water many towns in 49 states have access to. We need to upgrade our water facilities because they don’t filter out chemicals, pharmaceutical, viruses, bacteria and drugs.
That is actually really good.
I also do alot for the planet
And I also don't believe

It's eye opening.
What? Where? When? How? Who?
@@thisisntsergio1352 Yeah, I was like the only one that ever went to gardening for after school activities. We even revived what looked like a dead tree without branches or leaves. If you are planting saplings and have enough free space you can easily grow that many trees. You can probably plant one every three minutes, if you are planting them in randomly on a wide open field. You'd have to spend a lot of time though. So this might be half truth. They might have "helped" planting 10 000 trees.
This how the real humans have to act. Dont think about yourself of power. Think about the future and Nature. He’s telling the truth. We need to listen to him and recover nature💪🏾🌱❤️
Tell this to those hypocrite milionair celebtities, who travel the world in private jets and expensive yachts and at the same time lecture poor farmers not to acquire themsleves land to earn a dime.
@The Animal Alchemists True, human kind should not destoy mother earth. However, complaining about Brazil and the farmers in the third world is not where this starts. It starts by fighting greed. No one creates added value exceeding 300.000USD. Persons earning more than this figure are abusing their position, laws or other people. Every income above 300.000USD should be handed back to society so we can give the poor a basic income for free. That way poor people don't have to damage forests, or polute or have many children just to survive. Remember, every rich person in this world needs hundreds of poor people, just to be rich.
Faraaz I’m with you, I feel like Nature is part of who we are and who we are is what we need to handle and like you said recover it’s state and penalize anything against it or like some say let Karma get them but that another subject, we just need to realize our wrongs and fix them.
Bravo! Thank you Harrison Ford for passionately stating the Truth!
We all need such voices now more then ever.
His personality and attitude is exactly what we should all have RIGHT NOW.
Thank you so damn much for making this video. My husband is from West Sumatra, and together we saw the large scale rain forest destruction by foreign profiteers. My husband saw nomadic tribes crossing the road as a teen, but now they are gone due to the efforts of the psychopathic capitalists who obliterated the forests in West Sumatra's Riau province. Thank you so goddamn much for making this video and for continuing to use your platform to work for change.
Those "nomadic tribes" as you mentioned call themselves Orang Rimba. They still live that lifestyle in some places. Namely in two National Parks called Bukit Duabelas and Bukit Tigapuluh in Jambi and Riau province. Though it is true that many no longer live that lifestyle and are forced to live in palm oil and rubber plantations where they beg for a living.
Go vegan
Wow, Mr. Ford I'm very proud of you for passionately speaking about this and you speak for thousands who feel this way compared to the few voices destroying Mother Earth. It's immoral and irresponsible to not care what we do to her and I hope those thousands of voices will drown out the few! Thank you for a magnificent speech!

It is the ignorance and greed of the people of today, which has let it come this far. Undoubtebly, it will continue to hinder our efforts in fixing that, which we have broken. Humanity's flaws will certainly bring about an age of sorrow sooner rather than later. All we can do is soften the blow, as preventing it has long since become an option, we have let go of without a second thought. Let's hope, that, if we make it through this, we become better than before and more cautious of our actions.

Hjordis Torfa earth had a global 40 foot flood, in the 60s a volcano put out 50 years worth of humans (pollution) in 6 days pretty sure we’re fucking ants
Interesting that it's our nature is what drives us to destroy nature. Greed after all is a survival instinct, a very effective one. If you introduce catfish into a lake where they don't belong, they will destroy the entire ecosystem and eat everything until there is nothing left to eat at which point they too will die. A virus will eat it's host and then it will die. Every life form will expand it's territory as much as it possibly can and consume everything until there is nothing left with no regard for anything. When they're stopped it's by force, every time. There is some barrier, climate they can't survive in, another species that keep them at bay, not enough food they can eat, a physical barrier like a mountain chain or an ocean, pathogens they can't handle, whatever. Life never stops because it thinks to themselves "that's far enough, lets leave something for the rest of them", that's not a part of what life is. When we're destroying the Earth, we're acting like animals, we're following the programming of life. A real Human is someone who becomes more than just life, but most humans need to be herded because they'll never be anything more than just another life form. Once upon a time we had leaders that where real Humans, now we're just the blind trying to guide the blind out of a burning building. Will we find our way out or be consumed by the flames? Who knows, we can always hope I suppose, but it's looking pretty grim.
@@daniel4647 Well said!
Bullshit he is just regurgitating what others have falsely claimed. Whether we survive or not is not important but it will not happen because of climate.

A beautifully articulated portrayal of our current predicament. Every governmental discussion on climate change and sustainability should start with a video reminder such as this.
A Tridimas...yeah...but....you know what happens. The politicians all act like something was done when in truth nothing was done about the predicament.

Great speech and strong words! Every inhabitant of the Earth is responsible for our planet, that's why humanity have to revise their habits and try to be eco-friendly every day of life. The cause of an environmental disaster is an improve of different spheres of people life. I believe that only if all people get to the heart of this global nature problem we save this catastrophic situation.
Very moving. The clip of the orangutan fighting for its home brought me to tears. Thank you Harrison for this passionate speech. Another point to discuss is that we must all curb our consumerism to protect nature.
No matter how you feel about the ideology...that was a masterful speech if I've ever heard one..my hats off to you Indiana Jones! Well Done Sir.

SuperJV4x so you actually want earth and humanity to be destroyed? Wow.
@Darren Martin Yes and you and I both exhale poison constantly. What's your point? :)
Guys how stupid ignorant and naive are you to fall for this stuff? The truth is deeper and not so comfortable to realize but only truth will set you free. This is all about how to get the masses to give up all their rights (even more...), we are heading into a true mass genocide and slavery if people refuse to wake up and refuse to SEE the hidden agenda. Yes we can and should do what is reasonable to improve impact on envoirment but not in a state of hysteria and panic.
This is the most moving speech I have ever heard. This is the kind of shit we should be studying in school.
The same, it's a great speech ! I'd like to translate it.
Our country wants to keep us blind and stupid. Therefore we never learn anything useful in school.
Z@@cosimoto8700 that is true, but almost no teachers follow that ideology, if any. It's just the materials given to them that mostly limits our education. But I'm sure plenty of teachers would be able to squeeze this into their lessons, especially in high school English classes
@@ti2218 the school I went to was strict about what the teachers taught. They had to follow the learning plan day to day. Then at the end of the week we're tested over what we learned. I had a few good teachers that woukd stray off from the plan to teach us interesting and important things, but we would have to really squeeze it in to learn it. For example, if we got done early in class then we would do extra stuff. Some teacher even get in trouble and lose their jobs now if they dont follow the lesson plan.
In Ontario Canada climate sciences is mandatory learning material In grade 10 science. It is part of the grade 10 science curriculum, even then we still have some people who dont believe in climate change.

@Mitch Rover Your comment is the absolute truth. Although I myself have given money to environmental and endangered species organizations...and am as adamant as possible in my own life about recycling...the unfortunate fact is that everything we are aware of will one day cease to exist.

@Darth Yautja Actually the biggest impact you can make is not eating or buying any animal products. then helping others go vegan. Werre out of oxygen otherwise in 11 years, not as they say 31 years. it's not even the planes and cars, it's the methane gases zapping our oxygen. 65% is man-made oxygen zapping animal production industries, more then all other pollutants combined. Every one of us can make a big difference in going vegan. Look up Vegan billionaire Elon Musk and MARS ONE PROGRAM.
@Darth Yautja You have it wrong and can look up through satellite images and confirm that 65 percent, soon 70 percent of all methane gas emissions are man-made and created by the animal production industries. so anyone crying about anything environmental should and needs to stop eating animal products and help others do the same. Articles minimizing animal production industries real facts are funded by those industries. Look up how millions and millions of acres are burning down right now in the rainforest in Brazil, taking our Earth's lungs for cattle grazing business. All you meatheads will die too without oxygen, don't you get it? OMG. This is a worldwide imminent situation. GO VEGAN. the industry that also creating millions of jobs worldwide, changing our future for better. Our only chance right here today, where each of us can make a significant impact right now. Not waiting for someday a coal plant to be closed, or someday everyone trading in their cars for electric cars. once they go down in price.
Well said Harrison Ford it’s about time some celebrity said something like this your a top man Harrison Ford👍👍🥇.
Excellent speech. Not just the future of humanity, but most life that exists today as we know it. We're adding so much to the species extinction list by our arrogance. We do need to reforest, all across the world. Brazil contains 60% of the Amazon rainforest. That country is poor, in chaos, and people are stripping the forest down at unprecedented rates. We need an intervention there NOW.
Trees are Earths lungs. People should listen to Hopi people. Respect ERebs
likklej8 I have heard that since I was a kid in the 1970s. Back then, I naively thought we had learned our lessons and were working towards protecting the environment. It seems not and there is no evidence that deforestation is slowing. In fact, in Scotland, in a move away from fossil fuel electricity production we built huge “biomass” power stations largely fueled by cutting down trees including importing felled virgin forest from North America! We claim “renewable or sustainable” but it is not and hardly environmentally friendly. It is so depressing.
The oceans also produce at least 50% of the oxygen we breath via plankton. Warming oceans are already diminishing their numbers.
@Rory Forbes why nonsense? you do realize that acidification by carbon dioxide and warming destroys shells and kills life in the ocean? animals will have difficulty breathing if the oceans die and the Amazon is destroyed
And it all goes back to the topsoil and our destruction there of.
Yes. Trees are all our lungs.
Respect nature. Humble yourselves at the glory of our Earth, and all of it's precious creatures .It took billions of years to make us all. We can't replace anything.

Let's be realistic. There is no way to make this industrial society sustainable.
And because of the greed of Capitalists, it will not be stopped
Robert I do think we can have an industrial society, I am just sceptical that we can have a capitalist one. At the core of capitalism is never ending consumption. Companies in a capitalist economy all operate on the principle that every year they should produce more and sell more. If people aren't buying enough stuff, it becomes the job of the company of trying to convince people to consume more.
It is pretty screwed up when you got a world where people in the rich world have most of the things they need and our environment is going to hell. Yet every CEO of every company is being paid to get us to consume more. That is simply not a sustainable model for the future.
If we OTOH put technology and our industrial society at the service of nature and actual human needs rather than profits, I think we would have gotten a lot further.

Development Don't eat chocolate with palm oil in it from Indonesia
Jeremiah DaSilva cows and chickens are fed with soy that grows on destroyed rainforest. plant based diet is necessary.
The biggest problem for nature and for this planet is the incredible growth of the human population over the last 200 years. Meanwhile we are 7.7 billion people and each year there are about 80 millions more. Each of them wants a home to live and a nice life. We as humans claim the whole planet and all of it's ressources for us alone. If each family had only one child this would already be a big relief.
The next problem is our careless way of consuming with no end, every month the newest clothes, each year the newest smartphone, then the biggest car, the biggest house and so on. If everybody would live a more modest life and say to himself I don' need more - it's enough - this would already be a huge help. This is something everybody can do. Don't wait for others. Do something!
Start planting trees in your back yard in your front yard.
Constance McCoy Agreed. My son and I bought a home in the city and have started turning our back yard into a small full 7-level ecosystem forest. The trees/shrubs/plants we’re buying and planting are small now but just give them a couple of years. Search PERMACULTURE and FOOD FOREST on here. Pretty inspiring stuff. We can all do something.

@Wade Haden it is enough. Ethiopia planted 350 million trees in a day despite contributing almost nothing to our annual global emissions compared to other coubtries.

Let’s hope the next species that dominates the planet is smarter. And less fueled by greed.
BingBing BongBong Save that for the true end. For now... While we exist we can change and do better.
BingBing BongBong that’s where you’re wrong. We have that very special thing that no other animal on this planet has, brother: Hope. With this very beautiful thing, even despite the horrible deeds happening today, we CAN and WILL help this world and ourselves. Never lose hope, man. Once we do that, we’ve truly lost both our souls and this beautiful world we have the honor of calling our home. Hope, guys.
Roid-Monger 101 you’re wrong. No one is losing hope. Some people have just accepted our fate as a failed species. The oceans are dying and many parts dead. In the past 200 years more animals have gone extinct because of humans. The Amazon burned by humans because they’re evil. Dropping nuclear bombs for kicks. We’re already passed the point of no return for carbon emissions and irreversible damage to the environment as a whole. Corrupt governments that kill their own citizens to justify war. In order for the world to prosper humans need to step down as the dominant species on this planet.
In order for any change to happen in our ability to work together as a whole something catastrophic must occur. Is that not sad? The fact that our very existence must be at risk in order for us to work together? It’s pathetic actually.
Mother Nature will have her revenge. And I’ll be there to say, “you reap what you sow.”
Lmao the world began in fire, can it not then rekindle itself and come back from the ashes? You're all so funny to me. The world has cycles.
That's not true at all. We're still far from reaching a point of no return that would wipe us out. As terrible as climate change is, we will overcome it. We've only gotten this far because of our unbreakable will and our scientific problem solving. It will carry us through climate change, through the singularity, and mankind will continue to prosper for countless years to come. There may be some who have made catastrophic decisions for our planet, but for every one of them there are hundreds of people now rising up to take them on. How about instead of bitching about the worst of us, you join the good fight with the best of us.

First of all, you said Muslims "bread" like wild fire. Bread.
Now to correct you, actually 3.7 billion poor people in the world emit nearly no emissions. And the top 10 percent are western nations. That top ten percent is causing almost all of the pollution. In other words, the "white people" that will be extinct, according to you. Are you seriously trying to tell me the Muslims who are mostly poor are at fault. Look into your mirror. It's the west. Guess what, most Muslims probably don't have a mirror to look at. Entire families in the middle east produce a fraction of what the US produces.
China: 27.2% global emissions.
USA: 14.6% global emissions.
Vs majority Muslim countries:
Iran: 1.9% global emissions.
Saudi Arabia: 1.8% global emissions.
Khaled and Mariam seven children that live in mud houses in the desert, who drink camel milk directly from the tit and eat from one massive bowl of rice or locally growing goods are at fault for the average western household that drinks milk in gallons from plastic bottles, that throw away one third of their food because they can afford to, drive cars up and down massive roads of asphalt and move around the globe with high impact airplanes. And then the west has so much trash that they shove it down Asian throats. Not only that, you shoved your entire production of goods into China. Why else would most things in American shelves come from there?
America is 3.9 times larger than the population of Germany, yet it produces 6.6 times more emissions. If America was producing the same amount of CO2 emissions scaled to their population size, it should only equal to 3.9 times more emissions, not 6.6.

ua-cam.com/video/PHdcpxmJ6vg/v-deo.html (Video: "The New UN Climate Report: We're Screwed" by Second Thought)
Now to correct you, Steve Veatch actually 3.7 billion poor people in the world emit nearly no emissions. And as we know, poor people tend to have the most children. Yet, look at this difference in emissions:
India has a population of 1.3 billion.
America has a population of 327 million.
India produces 6.8% of global emissions.
India is four times larger than America, yet America produces double the amount of emissions as the USA.
Greed, laziness, lack of discipline, that's what caused all of this. We are throwing away one third of all food and have rampant obesity in western nations. And you're telling me those land whales should be eating what could provide for the growth of two children at least. All that grain used for donuts could be used for bread. All that meat being thrown away by massive companies like McDonalds could feed the world and end hunger. But saving people isn't financially interesting. You cower away from the truth. And that truth is that that man on the pedestal is an actor. That man owns airplanes. "eight or nine" motorbikes. "four or five" BMWs. "A couple" of Harleys. "A couple" of Hondas and a Triumph.
