Gotelli is such a classy guy. I could listen to him lecturing for hours.

There is one great failure of the federal government (and all levels of government) regarding the nation's land and natural resources. This is the failure to capture economic rent to pay for public goods and services. To the extent that publicly-held land is leased to private individuals and entities, that access should always be done by competitive bidding, with the leasing fees (i.e., ground rents) adjusted periodically based on changing market ground rents. By extension, the taxation of privately-held land should be equal to the potential annual rental value of whatever land is held. And, as at least some economists have argued, improvements such as buildings should be exempt from the property tax. Recommended reading: search for the writings of economists Harry Gunnison Brown, Fred Foldvary and Mason Gaffney. There are many others who have written extensively on the subject.

Wow

Should biz continue to support unsustainable growth there will be nothing left to sustain

I can’t believe I am the first person commenting here. This talk has changed my life and explained almost all of my current questions about life and created a whole set of new questions.

Succinct and direct to the point.

This is one of the most information dense conversations I've run across. Each slide is weeks of conversation on their own. Worked as a field service engineer with Jarrel-Ash spectrometers long ago and try to follow where we're going. Good pitch for your school too!

Really the world is distracted

This was a fantastic video Michael. I found your video whilst following a lead on aerogels. You sound like you have an amazing life of exploration, and discovery ahead of you. Please keep us informed of your journey. and with this study

The main speaker rambled to be frank. I struggled to grasp exactly what she was trying to express. She seems nervous and giggly.

Nice Explanation Mam.. Thank you😊

How do we create clean drinking water? - By not pooping and pissing where we are eating and drinking. This is pure PSY-OP tactics Problem Reaction Solution - clean drinking water is being produced FOR FREE like FOOD - not acknowledging GOD ALMIGHTY is the root of it ...

How does this precious HUMAN MIND know that taking off "pressure" of CO2 is "beneficial" in ANY SENSE not even speaking about "MAN'S LIFE" ... with every idea THE HUBRIS is getting more EPIC ... never mind everyone is digging his own pit ...

According to THE CULT OF RICHARD DAWKINS we are an offspring of "THE TOXIC SOUP" that brought "life" into existence .. THE CULT hasn't explained yet as of 2023 HOW this exactly happened, but anyways, how can this "toxic soup" become toxic to the "thing" that CREATED it? Anybody??? - please I yearn for the answer!

How does THE HUMAN MIND know what kind of water is exactly right UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES ... such a claim already, apart from the reference to the ancient alchemists, shows the utter PRIDE, ARROGANCE AND HUBRIS OF THE HUMAN MIND being confident enough to perfect GOD ALMIGHTY'S CREATION.... without including HIM in the equation or even "worse" to exclude GOD ALMIGHTY from the process that brought THE HUMAN MIND into the equation in the FIRST PLACE!

Economic (and social) cooperation would blossom IF ONLY governments could be lobbied by the general population to change the way revenue is raised. As Henry George persuasively argued back in the late 1800s, the failure of societies to capture economic rents not only leads to economic instability and widespread, generational poverty but also to the treatment of nature as disposable. What is needed is a massive re-education in cooperative civic values based on the principle that the earth and all nature resources is our common wealth, to be shared equally. And, George argued that the public capture of rents via taxation is the only practical means ever put forward to achieve this outcome .

CORPORATIONS WILL NEVER LET IT HAPPEN- NOT FOR POORER MAN - THEMSELVES ONKY.

Thank you very much. This was very helpful.

This man is someone to listen to. We must, must, must pay attention to him and others "prophets" like him no matter how difficult the process is. Our planet, our societies and the vast majority of life on our Earth hangs in the balance. Not an exaggeration.

Ecology is inconsistent with GDP-economy. We must replace economic growth with civilization development i.e. to start living by the Age of Reason Guidestone (state of Georgia)... Maybe it's not too late.

Back in the days of ten minute video limits.

The implications of this are MASSIVE. If we revoke banks' ability to create new money via loans, it has the potential to eliminate as he said something like 97% of the current money supply when current debts are paid off, freeing up the government to now spend 30x more than they currently do on whatever we want. This could mean a universal basic income, or ecosystem service jobs guaruntee, huge investment in public transit infrastructure, free healthcare for all, etc.

Watched this in 2017 and still relevant in 2022.

What a great teacher... love it.. I wished with what i know now, i hadnt studied architecture, but Ecological Economics

Thank you

This info should be on the front line news!!

posted in 2012 and only 2,956 views and 16 likes...the biggest issue of our time and almost NO ONE is paying attention, scary...we are headed for a disaster and basically no one realizes it...oh well, c'est la vie

Thank you, for opening our eyes, we should protect the sudd its our mission

A TOTAL FRAUD-he predicted world famine by 1975!

Umm

Excellent information here, thank you for posting this.

Pov:haces un tarea de inglés xd Hola 9-A

Very nice. I allready heared much from this, while watching many talks of William . e. Rees, the cofounder of the ecological Footprint. If i would have to study again, this would be one of my favorite choices...

Just finished the Floating Coast. What an eye-opener. Thoroughly enjoyed this video. Thank you for all that you do. Great work!

He called it a “social bird” 🙄

This is the problem with the American academic academics we have teachers that are basically promoting communism what a scumbag

Thank you for putting this presentation on KZbin.

I was at this lecture. I graduated UVM in 2013. I have never forgotten this lecture, or the eco machine I was shown. I am now a high school science teacher, and I reference his work.

Very informative.

It's a word for green washed communism. We don't need it and it would harm and hurt every normal person and every aspect of life. We already have a mechnism that prevents the waste and overuse of ressources. It's called "Price-Mechanism" or "Supply and Demand".

No likes or comments. Lolololololol loser! God wins by the way...

Thank you Dr. Norman, From Assam, India

I thought he died in 1915

Excellent crash course, thanks very much for sharing! I'm studying ecological economics and you summarised the main points so well
