[@albertoguarda7]

Thank you for making this available on KZbin. No judgements, no finger pointing ... just common sense and how it belongs to all of us to find the solution(s) to the biggest challenge humanity has ever faced.

[@Kiwiwanderer]

I agree 💯- just the best minds discussing big complex topics simply for me.

[@kinngrimm]

And yet one could point fingers. Just the last days an investigativ documantary has shown that 10% of the population here in germany, people with income of 700k € or higher, are responsible for 50% of Co2 emissions on an individual level. Majorly due to them using private jets. They interviewed a bunch of these private jet users and it was abhorent how these people don't know, don't want to know or are knowing but don't care of their contribution to the problem of CO2 aslong they can do whatever the fuck they want.

I have profoundly thought about many of these ideas in one form or other since I was a child. "WHY" my friend yelled to me one time 40 years ago , " You always want to know why? , that's not normal " . Around the same time my father said "Son, those thoughts and questions are dangerous ". Now at 65 my lovely and very traditional thinking sister said " What I love about you is that you continue to be fearlessly like Don Quixote. Trying to defeat injustice but with understanding . by observing this amazing world as it is that I live in. This documentary is a reflection of many thoughts I have had, but this doc does so in very clear language and concepts. A story that needs a wide and healthy run. WELL done ya'll!

The indigenous population was so limited that even though they project they are more sensitive to nature, they were mostly a society that used the resources until depletion was evident and moved on to the next site. Nature was able to recover, now with so many more people demanding higher life style and being unwilling to change. Selfishness and greed destroy the beauty and fragility.

LOVE the very last quote. One of the most balanced and relatable docs. No finger pointing needed. We are part of the systems around us as a human super organism, conditioned to the illusions we have built. Now it's time to shift our power of now to become aware of our how we are part of nature. The answer lies in the "unconditioned" space inside each of us. Tap that blocked energy and all you find is love.

[@PrimaudiaRecord]

That absolutely smashed me, especially the end. I've often dwelt on the universal balance that is fostered by innumerable inhabitants and made decisions that not only benefit my life but that of all. I particularly enjoyed the passage about energy, it made me think of all the cars that drove past me as I walked to work, how much energy they must have borrowed and how it was to be given back. At my work my boss wants me to operate machinery to do a job slightly faster, I said I'd prefer to do it by hand because it would save the power for when it was really needed, he said time costs more, and power was always available. I try not to be bigoted towards those who see or understand things differently but I have to admit, when I see those cars driving by I do wonder, how many species have we killed because we borrow energy, how many Amazon dwelling natives have been slaughtered for man's desire to fit in, make money or even eat a burger. I think humans will live on, in far smaller numbers, and in generations to come they will know the great folly we created for ourselves, and I like to think they won't make the same mistake.

[@danielhanawalt4998]

There's a saying, history repeats itself. Lets hope, and maybe pray we can change that. Another saying is that those who win the battle or war, writes the history. We are now in a battle, a war. If we don't get this right, we're finished. Those with the money have the power. Those with the power win the battles and the wars. It doesn't have to be that way. There's more of us than them. We just need to change our way of thinking. We don't need all they're selling. When we stop buying there merchandise, they lose their power. When we realize we don't need every new thing they come up with, they lose their power. When we realize what we need is love, rather than their shiny new toys, they lose their power.

[@PrimaudiaRecord]

@@danielhanawalt4998 I've heard someone knowledgeable say that moderation kills. I think humanity has convinced itself that it'll be fine if caution and restraint is exercised. It won't be ok, we're already in major borrowed time and we need to start sealing holes before the ship sinks. All our lives we've been shown how things must be and if anything it's a total opposite, we're not consumers, we're product, plain and simple. To challenge that means taking on governments whose only concern is growth and strength, they're puppets to a system created by corporation's and the only role they have is to keep us healthy so we can work out fingers to the bone so those obsessed with greed and status can feel a grotesque sense of achievement. They won't know what hit them.

[@EquatorLounge]

Same thing man, especially the last phrases Jeff said. Somehow, seems that individual climate consciousness is a forbidden dogma.

[@shannonsexton8921]

Thankyou for being ethical... however the point is that the creature that thinks of the next 5 minutes gets ahead more often than the one that thinks of the future. In the long run greed wins out and this path was inevitable. I just hope a few long term thinkers and ethical individuals survive our changing world.

[@hexxan007]

@@shannonsexton8921 "In the long run greed wins out" Erm... Not quite. We ARE "in the long run" now and we can clearly see that greed destroys more (namely a whole living planet with everything on it) than it wins out (a bunch of self-invented "value-papers"). "this path was inevitable": there you go. A child has to experience that the toy breaks, the beetle dies, when he is not careful enough - in order to learn how to fully care.

[@besreal3419]

Every human we add to the planet needs and wants more for itself than they care for the life of the "others" we consume. If we eat meat, we cause the death of the animals; if we eat plants, we cause the death of the plants; if we drink liquids, we are stealing the water wild plants and animals need to survive. We humans are each willing to value our self over the other people, animals & plants we are displacing.

[@jennodine]

Because under capitalism, every natural resource has a monetary value, and the more rare and exotic or endangered the resource, the higher the value. Laws aimed at protecting any particular natural resource only increase its value on the black market. I don’t see any way out of this without dismantling capitalism entirely.

[@sherriianiro747]

@@jennodine I agree, and I also believe the problem is the lack of enforcing laws that do protect our natural resources and the demise of free enterprise. The guy who invents something good is put out of business by the big shots. Big fish eating little fish thus forming a monopoly with fixed higher prices and no competition. We were screwed when they ceased the anti-trust lawsuits and let big oil drill in our national parks which are owned by the American people.

Thank-you to jeff Bridges, and everyone else who made this documentary. I especially appreciate the message it left off on, to ask ourselves, what are we willing to do, that is sustainable for ourselves, ro contribute to how we want the future to be, and the implication that love is the energy, the fuel, that we need to tap into, to invest in our desires for a positive outcome for future generations of life itself on this amazing planet we all share.

[@birbluv9595]

We need to limit human reproduction. But that is a third rail. I asked an expert about it - he said it’s impossible. People want to make their own decisions about having children (witness the problems created by China’s one-child policy.) Human beings’ drives and desires are in direct conflict with preserving Earth’s environment. So I see this as a monumental tragedy, an unstoppable process. That doesn’t mean we shouldn’t do every possible to try to delay or stop it.

As long as that desire is not centered around making more electrical vehicles, which actually are running on fossil fuel, and even more so than the gasoline ones.... then yes, we all need to think about how we could contribute to Earth's future well being.... some ideas..... let's all be vegetarian ..... let's build public transportation systems and stop glorifying the individual cars... let's stop putting water in bottles (yes, that is a very destructive habit!) and let's stop poisoning our drinking water with chlorine and fluorides and other very toxic chemicals (there are better ways to make clean water!)... those are just a few but very efficient ways to bring about a better life for our planet... believe it or not! I can hear all the objections from the lobbyists of those industries who all make big profits off of the meat industry, the water chemical industry, the car manufacturers, and so on.... change is hard to come by! Greed reigns supreme! Poor earth... it will survive even if we don't ... and maybe that's the best solution for all, to save this planet. Except that we won't be needing it anymore!

@@velvetpaws999 I hear you, rhe situation is dire with greed ruling the species. We can't fix the system, and yes, the planet will survive. All is not lost yet though so hang in there and let's do what we can to make this life and those whose lives we touch, a little sweeter and kinder, or as someone very wise said, grow our circle of compassion.

[@whatbringsmepeace]

This is the first presentation about climate change that has NOT made me feel powerless. People with good hearts are locked into unproductive behaviours because their primitive psychological need for 'more' hasn't been tempered by long term goals for their children, grandchildren and the planet at large. I'm sure I'll watch this more than once, and think about it, journal about it and finally act on it. What a gift to be able to find a way forward that leads with the heart. Thank you so much.

[@erikalefever6576]

So beautiful and thought provoking. Thank you. We have to face what is happening to our world, but in a way that we do not become demoralized.

[@spiralsun1]

I see the effects of the poverty I live in clearly in this video. I am not primarily motivated by money, but by real meaning, by truth. And so it’s sad to see the “Me shaped hole in the world” in the ideas of this video which are only a partial description of our most serious problems. It’s because I have tried for decades to be heard, and I will never give up on humanity, or on life, because I dearly love it. That’s why I am poor. Because the way I think in wholes across time and space can neither be monetized or easily understood. So I am a symbol of the problem. I don’t exist to a world looking for anything but truth, in the larger holistic sense. They look for monetization, usefulness now, fame, etc. these things are just local motivational structures but the overall picture is very different. That’s where I am supposed to come in, but I cannot get a job despite being extremely high in IQ and obsessive about accuracy and truth. Because I will never stop at the avenues to destinations that are not in my higher GPS, so to speak. I actually know what and why the problems are and how to solve them. This video is a start, but they don’t understand the whole picture. It’s bigger than organisms. I wrote a book 20 years ago about the meta-cognitive aspects of life and human civilization that contains the seed of the solutions and I spend every day writing articles and sending grant proposals or finishing my next book about all these things but humanity did not make a spot for me. Not currently. Granted, I am an anomaly, but the problems that are arising and human consumption are the way they are for specific very important reasons. Obviously it is not sustainable. It’s a crossing of a bridge to the future where things WILL be sustainable. It’s a war against chaos which has been all-out. We think we are consuming or gaining wealth, but these things also have a higher meaning which actually is what enables them at all, the same higher pattern which gave us language. It has been sending messages across time and space for eons. In the form of these patterns. Our short lives and self-centered perspectives has made us blind to it, it’s a matter of time-vision. Hardly anyone has it. Thanks for this video. I will keep trying. Sometimes the smallest thing can change the world forever. I intend to keep trying to be that butterfly which changes all of history for the better. Despite being homeless and ignored because people cannot understand me, and I understand them all too well. Thank you for reading this if you did. Please read some of my recent comments or like or subscribe if you see anything in them. I need help, and I am asking for a favor from you for one thing, to make life better. I am not asking money. But a place in the world. A voice for the message and meaning that I see and the world could benefit from. Thank you for being you. I love you because you are my hero. Every person in every mundane job is a warrior but they don’t even know or understand. I do. And I thank you with complete sincerity because we ARE truly one. And we ARE all in this together. And as long as we know this, no darkness can ever extinguish our light from the universe. ❤️‍🔥🙏🏻♾

So i began to create fun, simple games for my mind, To change the chip in my mind that said i need money to support life. 20 years later, i continue to live without money, Without povery. Without struggle. Im a happy person Ive been having fun & rewarding life since. I have all that i need & desire. My standards are high. The mind Is a powerful tool I enjoy using.

I tried surviving the winter and summer of 2021-22 without the use of air-conditioning or heaters. It was tough at first, couldn't sleep in mid-summer, and if I stopped moving in winter, my feet would start freezing no matter how many pairs of socks I wore with my wool lined shoes. Learned a few tricks and it got easier. I'm waking up my dna knowledge of seasonal adaptations. It's very interesting how food cravings and water retention shift around to match. And I feel stronger. Plus I can eat more in the winter without gaining weight. It's not much, but it's something. But now I wonder if the energy cost might be the same?

[@KazeKamiFooDjinn]

@@besreal3419 I depends on caloric burn. I expend alot of calories to thermal regulate in the winter as I don't use heaters at all. And sugars from carbs are an easy burn. But the coldest it reached in Japan last year was only -5 celcius. Probably why Eskimos eat seal fat, gets -30 in those lands. During the summer, I cut down on carbs to around 20% of my diet. And go vegan for the change from spring to summer to switch digestive biome to summer mode.

I may not be able to reconstruct the whole thing again!!!! I wanted to tell you that yesterday night I was reading a page from "Jaina Sutras by Hermann Georg Jacobi" and I want to share that sentence with you. "the animistic belief that nearly everything is possessed of a soul." "animistic belief" is the author's condescending bias. Soul, I translate or assume, it means Life. Hermann was a German. He translated this into English (!) from original Pali and Sanskrit. My own personal perception is that SPACE is ALIVE and everything and all Life "crystalized" out of it and will disappear into it. Also, before we destroy Earth, It will destroy us if we continuously behave like a virus on its body. Once again, thank you so much for weaving together beautiful ideas into an art of moving-making.

Just a beautiful documentary. But I will be honest I am exhausted by what I see as inevitable. I want to help make a real change but as a single cell in the full body of humanity it seems so hopeless. All I can do are my little bits and how I vote. God save our planet and us from ourselves.

Everytime you start something New and Better it was on the "End of the line" of something Old and Worse. We all do it everyday, and if we can do it for ourselves we absolutely can do it together!. The more the merrier, right?🤗❤‍🩹 Cheers from Sweden 💌🤫

I am a Caucasian American. But my culture from an early age has been the highest wisdom and Spirituality of India; and then China and Japan. Those incredible ancestors have given my life an unspeakable treasure. They have lifted me beyond a human animal, to a being who recognizes the highest intelligence of the universe and existence. Consciousness and awareness enlightened to itself! The nonduality of material existence and spiritual awareness. No self/other, but one life energy capable of harmony. Feet planted firmly on the earth, rooted in being; and consciousness expanding to the ends of space. Flying freely, liberated. 🕉 That is my inherited culture. A blessing ✨ 🙏 As well as beautiful art and music. 🎉

I really appreciate this documentary, so well assembled ! Some ironies tho watching certain speakers, clearly in their opulent homes, filled with trappings that serve only to satisfy their desires to be seen as superior or tasteful.. when the subject of the documentary undermines all this.. still really well presented.

Humans are special in that we can communicate orally, and with signals. This is often demonstrated often amongst many drivers in traffic jams.

[@cynthiagarcia1344]

Such well composed and clear worldview, packed with so much wisdom and insight. The interconnectedness of the systems of life on Earth, and beyond, is the new knowledge of the future humanity. We're human kind, we're individuals and part of bigger organisms of our cultures and civilizations, and we're part of the whole organism of the eco system as well. The most amazing is how rapidly our consciousness evolves. We become more and more aware of the small details in the big picture and our place in it. Human consciousness rapidly expands and deepens in our understanding. I can only imagine the profound knowledge and wisdom of future generations. 😊

I once lived in Santa Barbara. I volunteered to work at one of the historic Victorian houses that this lady had bought and was holding Angel seminars in. The bathrooms were huge with chairs so people could sit and chat with whoever was taking the bath. Off the bathroom would be a balcony and I was told that was the sleeping balcony for summer when it was so hot. WELL I live in Texas now in a brand new house and it's one story and there's definitely no sleeping balcony and there's no balcony at all because it's one story! IT got so hot this last summer and I was sweating so much and my sheets were so soaked that I broke out of course in little bumps on my skin. SO I went outside on what was the patio which is enclosed on three sides by the house and it was perfect ☺️ The weather was perfect and I'm still trying to figure out how I can sleep out there come next summer and feel safe enough because although of course the fence is locked, anyone could jump over,though people don't tend to at this point anyway. I just think we need to design houses with sleeping balconies or with inner courtyards. One lady I met in Florida said her husband bought her a house that had an inner courtyard with a swim pool even although she hated to swim! SHE was Cuban and she just didn't understand how lucky she was to have found this American guy to give her that but so it goes. I think she was from the wealthy classes and maybe part of the first onslaught of Florida by Cubans who actually wore accustomed to a lot and not impressed by much. BE that as it may, a house like that would be fantastic because you'd feel safer when sleeping.

Beautiful presentation of thoughts and images to prod us into re-thinking our concept of energy and what we are truly doing. It would be great to see a sequel production that presented alternative living arrangements for the human super=organism. Even though we might not like the current "energy flows" of our human-controlled ecosystem....we are none the less totally dependent on it.

Ok- despite the lack of diversity, this is BRILLIANT !!!! Damn good job, Jeff Bridges and team!

[@LTTunage]

Very well done. Only complaint is the lack of any concrete solutions to the Petro-conomy i.e. Zero Point Energy which is a scientifically valid, proven and sustainable alternative to oil that would completely remake how all of us live, work, commute, eat, etc... And as this documentary focuses on, what would we then turn our attion to so we can fulfill our inner wants, needs and desires... It all starts at home though as Jeff Bridges asks at the end: What can I do, sustainably, in my lifetime to be a part of the solution in saving the planet and not being a blind participant in needless consumerism and planned product obsolescence? Very, very challenging, I just know I can do more...

[@ryangreen1748]

I don't think it starts at home at all. That's how they've justified policy inaction for decades. Cfc lightbulbs and heat pumps. To depend on the home we must require global behavioral change. That will never happen. Policy makers cooked paradise with endless inaction, paid by those who benefit the most.

[@carolseiler4592]

Perhaps you can tell me why a synthetic oil/petrol cannot be manufactured to do the same job?

[@WalkinBeauty278]

But right at the end ...a solution is offered.. LOVE.....and just to stay conscious of LOVE...well ,science says .. We are what we think.

[@Provocateur193]

Unfortunately, you can’t pump love into a car’s gas tank. You however may pump it lovingly, maintain the car so it runs efficiently. Our lives are too intertwined with the use of fossil fuels.

If the whole world, especially realizing just how small we truly are in this wonderful universe, cannot realize that the earth is crying out in exhaustion, from getting pounded and impacted literally 24/7:365 since man started runnin' the show around here, I honestly don't know how the hell we can't realize we are one weather we like it or not. Maybe the earth will simply stop spinning for us, as half the world would be plunged forever into darkness never to see the modern workday again....if we don't act as one here, real quick, it will be too late. I remember when they had documentaries like this on regular tv. And we had shows about animals and how to treat them....does anyone remember those? I'm exhausted. Best of luck to all on their own unique, yet collective journey...one for all and all for one!!❤❤❤

4:44 Emotions are not counter-productive to society....the ways we acknowledge or avoid them can be counter-productive. Emotions are messengers and we can use them to better understand ourselves and each other, and direct ourselves towards peace and contentment. I think the real problem is that people lack emotional intelligence and are too lazy to do anything about it....and there are new companies every year looking to profit from humanity's lazy nature. So yeah, laziness is the only real problem with humans.

[@bobinthewest8559]

Part of your comment reminds me of a “parable” about the “two wolves inside each of us”…. The “good” wolf, versus the “bad” wolf…. And the question, “which one wins out in the end?” It is the one that you feed. There are really only two emotions…. Love, and fear. Everything else that we call emotion…. Actually derives from these two. Empathy comes from love…. Hate comes from fear…. And so on. Emotions are not “good” OR “bad”…. But you have to decide which you want to feed. Laziness is a huge problem in the human condition. We are too lazy to decide for ourselves which emotion to feed. We think it’s easier to let someone else decide for us. That’s why SO MANY of us are living in fear these days. Such a shame, such a waste… People need to realize how powerful they are…. Live in love, give in love, the world will be better.

[@bobinthewest8559]

“Direct ourselves towards peace and contentment.” The easiest way to have what you want…. Is to want what you have.

Isn’t laziness actually a form of greed? Expecting the fulfillment of desires based on what someone else does without compensation is the greed of laziness, no?

@@ashtree3006 ~ Excellent.. because, as it is written: “God is Love,..” 1st John 4:16 (KJV) As they say: it’s love that makes the world go round. To realize the difference between what’s positive and what’s negative; what’s constructive and what’s destructive; the yin and the yang ☯️ of the universal paradox where change is a constant despite the definition of a constant being something without change; and to then choose to make positive, constructive change is to grow out of ignorance and into knowledge and wisdom which some have decided against, but whose end shall be according to their deeds and not for us to judge.
