"it was not our personal freedoms that added up to this crisis, but our lack of freedom from the economic and political syatems that have appropriated our original wealth, and manipulated our hearts and minds."

[@TennesseeJed]

That was excellent! Thanks for sharing!

[@FacingFuture]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@brentfence]

Professor Jem Bendell you're a good bloke

[@walterbushell7029]

This talk is making me more anxious than before. Must be my denial being challenged. ( I have been told that I could teach denial.)

“The big challenge of our time is to make sure that when our hearts break [amidst climate catastrophe] we stay open and connected and curious rather than coming up with stories to justify ourselves being violent to others that we have othered more than those closest to us.” ― Jem Bendell

[@boombot934]

Very touching talk, thank you, Jem Bendell and Facing Future team😊😢

[@ptourang2]

Reading it now !

Krishna Murti: Its no sign of mental health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society.

[@leonstenutz6003]

Amen. Been meditating on this quote for years.

[@walterbushell7029]

In fact being well adjusted to current American society is a sign of deep pathology.

[@leonstenutz6003]

Yep. Heard this quote -- and the talk it came from and similar ones from JK -- many times. One of the reasons i've been working 3+ decades on creating a new domain, science, philosophy, and art toreimagine & redesign reality & positively shift paradigms. With people like Nate & his network and others like it, we can, and will, cocreate a better world.

[@tinacurran6239]

He's speaking the truth we all need to look at and acknowledge. I will def buy the book.

[@ewegg1271]

Good talk, although disappointing that there's not many young people there!

[@harmhoeks5996]

Western people didn't reproduce. Only old western people and children immigrants.

[@Medley3000]

You can reforest the planet as much as you want but the forests will burn down faster than you can plant them. It's too late for that. Today, in addition to the deliberate fires in South America and East Asia, unimaginable areas in North America and Siberia are going up in flames that cannot be extinguished because there are simply no firefighters to put them out. Because the soils are so dry and also little rain falls they can spread undisturbed.

[@OldScientist]

Bonkers.

[@weltenrandwanderer2626]

yes

[@hipser]

This is an amazing talk. thanks for all you do.

[@FacingFuture]

Thanks for watching :)

[@judithmcdonald9001]

LOL!! An aging hippy here. Go for it!! We got Richard Nixon and got real quiet. Then Kent State ("Four Dead in Ohio") Underground survival is going to be important. How will you eat?

[@judithmcdonald9001]

Also, many great minds graduated from college and moved to Canada.

Things Are In The Saddle And Ride Mankind - Ralph Waldo Emerson Certainly a figure to study, as well as his hired hand with a library of a thousand books, most of which he wrote himself.

Yet another hysterially delusional doomsayer predicting the end of mankind because he simply doesn't understand the data collected, and hence draws ridiculous conclusions.

[@freetibet1000]

But you think you do, right?

[@CentaurUK90]

In my judgement at age 80, yes I do. Until at least there is incontrovertible PROOF that it is fact not theory.@@freetibet1000

[@CentaurUK90]

@@freetibet1000 No. I'm simply waiting for the EVIDENCE of alleged catastrophe that is alleged has already happened. Until that is produced, how can anyone believe the even worse forecasts ?
