Buildings of the Future: Net Zero Energy | David Shad | TEDxCSUSM

[@ninivanvolkinburg1073]

I love it how he goes from a reality TV show to a TED Talk

[@alliemcmillin602]

Shad just blew us all away with this! He was so quiet on the show and he comes out like YASSS

[@EmoneyMusic]

Shad is the goat for this.

[@mattredd882]

WHy is everyone calling him Shad not David Shad??

[@andiidavis]

Matt Redd he was on a dating show called Are You The One and went by Shad on the show

[@svalbard01]

No new videos on Emoney Music in 3 months? C'mon.

[@michaelcano7]

Emoney!!!!!!!! Bro follow me on insta mcano_07

[@TheeOrdinaryJoe]

Yo, my homie Emoney!!

[@sincerelyalex28]

It’s so refreshing to see people trying to create and promote real change, in a tangible way. Continue doing what you’re doing!

[@sarakenda6274]

So intelligent- it’s refreshing to see someone in this generation be so informed and trying to come up with a plan to make things better.

[@TheChannelJ1]

HE WAS THE REAL CATCH OF THE SHOW!

[@caitlinworthington1381]

TED talk needs to feature David !! He has such awesome insight and could hold some secrets to a cleaner future !

[@dianav8497]

so happy someone is talking about this on such a platform! 👏🏼

[@CalvinPedroli-ke8cl]

Fantastic discussion! Well done David 🙌🏽

[@tessawood3658]

David Shad is going to save the world!

[@kennedybryant8067]

Wow! I am blown away. I didn't realize how serious this is, and I am sure many of us can agree.

[@leonardjimenez1284]

Working with David it is obvious he is a very talented and knowledgeable individual who's Tedx Talk provided an in depth analysis of netzero energy buildings and will contribute to the building of future sustainable buildings.

[@allisonclawans2473]

This is the new frontier! I wish people got renewable resources more often. It’s how we will survive! Thank you Shad!

[@Itzmiaaxo]

When I was first watching I had no idea how I could possibly relate to a TED talk like this. But when I actually watched and listened I was amazed at how much I could relate. You spoke truth man.

[@mariarivera-us6mw]

Wowow after watching this video David you opened my eyes. I never thought how much energy we could save. It’s so incredible that we don’t know we have so many ways to save the planet & no a lot of people like my self know this things. Thanks to people like you & videos likes that we learn. Thank you so much !!

[@mcmillanomaha]

I love that he has so much passion while speaking. You can tell he is very enthusiastic and looks out for the upcoming future. Thanks for inspiring me and i always look forward to hearing you speak ✨

[@metorres4]

Shad was one of the most intelligent guys in the house and was one of my favorite!

[@EcTrojans]

Such an important topic and Shad summed it up perfectly, TED needs to feature this!!!

[@DjDevour10]

This talk is so important for our future, along with Mr. Shad. Excellent discussion.

[@lilylynn5276]

love this! So inspirational. Crazy to see you go from reality tv to this! Audrey is lucky to have you as her PM

[@missmariemck]

Lily Lynn can you please tell me what PM stands for I see it on her Instagram and I’m so confused haha

[@LifeWithLex773]

Rachel Mck Perfect Match. Lol

[@ArleneMartizzle]

Shad!!! Thank you for shining a light on this important issue and using your platform to spark change!

[@jessicadamon3476]

I feel like we all need to start caring more about the environment and this is such a good idea :)

[@trishakershaw98]

"Does Keith live in my heart? I don't think so, he's not paying rent?" -shad

[@od1934]

You must think in a different way if you don't pay for you energy includes heating, cooling, cooking, lights etc. and even drive your car with free energy will save you a lot of money every year. Think how much money you have more every month witch you can spend for a lot of other things for living.

[@PatrickRouleauevoair]

Tough CROWD!!! loool...I love it. He called out the whole audience...seriously what a crowd. Support a brother trying to save the world...

[@troyfilson]

Hey David. Great talk...even the awkward unicycle bits! LOL In regard to your assertion that we could live net zero energy plus, I would caution anyone who thinks that the excess energy production will always earn you a "check in the mail." Feed-in tariffs (or pay for your excess energy production fed into the grid) were once relatively high here (in Australia), but now have sunk dramatically. The economic reality is that as renewable energy production increases and eventually surpasses the mainline grid power production, the power companies simply cannot afford to pay for electricity that is fed back into the grid. It becomes a net sum loss for them. Some may applaud that and shout 'good riddance' to the power companies, but the [current] fact is that they provide an essential service that simply can't be discarded overnight. Lots of work to do, but stay on it! We're on the right track!

[@sabrilemcginn2988]

Great idea given by someone who is obviously passionate about and well-knowledged in the sustainable energy field. I am a student at USC and would love to see net zero energy incorporated on campus!

[@jessbain7302]

He was my fav from the show!!! I love this

[@allisonclawans2473]

Seriously amazing technology. This is how we should be harnessing our energy!

[@kaelamessina5288]

Such an eye opener!! Should most definitely be a featured Ted talk!!

[@charliejuliette8651]

So inspiring - going from reality tv to TED talks

[@kaelamessina5288]

The future is here!! Definitely deserves to be a featured Ted talk! 🙌🏻

[@RhoDaTheaterKid]

Love that he’s using his public platform for something that’s revelant and important for sustainability 🙌🏽🙌🏽

[@miguelvasquez6069]

This is something I totally agree with and I support you 100% shad

[@tessawood3658]

This needs to be shared everywhere!!

[@cadenblessing]

Hey dude! I’ve literally watch this ted like 4 times! I’ve shown it to some of my teachers and they thinks it’s amazing! Like it’s so great and I agree with you completely

[@justinlangford9829]

David - This is such a good Talk. Thank you for putting sustainability first, we need more people like you on this planet :)

[@tessawood3658]

MTV definitely should have given him more air time! He is so smart and I'm sad we didn't get to see that on air.

[@mattredd882]

I am a big believer in what this man is saying. The time to change is now! How can we become more focused on these kinds of energy issues and not what they discuss in politics year after year?

[@ryanwelsch9384]

Great talk. I just finished upgrading my 1986 home to a NZEB. I wish everyone would focus some time and money on this.

[@engineeous1304]

As an Architectural Engineer Graduate, this talk really inspires me.

[@madisonmoore6897]

I love TED Talk videos anyway, but this one was super cool. Someone already in the public eye (for younger generations, HELLO) in an attempt to greatly change our future. Yes, Shad!

[@SeaLover150]

Thanks for paying attention to the energy and its potential to change the world..

[@dsalas6262]

Shad you are doing so great ! I’m so proud of you

[@smartdencity]

Very insightful!! I hope this gets viral. Thank David

[@marshallcotta7897]

Great talk! Let’s get you on the front page!

[@ScoutAdams]

Remarkable hearing a singular solution to reduce, eliminate and eventually invert the current diminishing returns conservation of energy paradigm. I’m sure it already has a proper name or acronym. If OK with Mr. Shad, I’ll remember it as Unicycle Plus.

[@elizabethsillcocks9634]

So cool to see you using your platform to spread this message!

[@madisonb.3687]

You are so intelligent!! I enjoyed you on the show ❤️❤️❤️

[@lavinia_makara27]

Much needed info we definitely need to get educated about this...Thanks Dave Shad and props to your parents!

[@lizahowland4598]

this should be a featured Ted talk!!! he had great ideas & perspective!!!

[@kennedybryant8067]

Serious issue, and very well said! This is something we should all care about.

[@cadenblessing]

It’s awesome to see my fav AYTO star to be on a TED! It’s amazing, I hope I can do something like you do some day

[@aismail990]

Excellent presentation David! I enjoyed listening to your presentation. I really hope you make it to the TEDX conference in Vancouver!

[@Rumpelle1995]

Super cool talk! I'm glad to see someone actually talking about this and taking the necessary steps to change the way we produce and waste our energy!

[@mj-brozek]

The information that you shared is information that I will sincerely take in and think of, thank you!

[@elizabethvargas8820]

Favorite from MTV. &’ yet now hes on TED Talk ! Thats Awesome !

[@dylanmoran9742]

Great talk. Very informative, this guy is going places!

[@CaseyJudeMacy]

Thanks for sharing your knowledge. I hope we create the new norm!

[@meganmccraw8504]

This is so amazing, seriously more people need to watch!

[@charliejuliette8651]

This is really amazing ! Go Shad!

[@sajidsayyad5833]

This is an eye opener, I really got motivation from this video. Thanks for every person responsible for that event.

[@jessbain7302]

Make it happen! So inspiring !!!

[@roryleonard3620]

Way to go shad!!!!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@Ranifo23]

Awesome video!! More people need to be talking about this

[@brittanywalker1567]

I hope TED features his talk 👍🏽👍🏽

[@jessicadamon3476]

This is absolutely amazing, why are we not all doing this?!

[@marthaalmendarez8788]

You are a great talker and I love both of the ted talks I’ve seen❤️

[@SimpleDwelling]

While I understand the overall message, the home "design" he showed at 12:28 probably goes against everything he is talking about. Sure it has solar panels, but what orientation are those windows? How many rooms/floor area needs to be heated and cooled throughout the year? How airtight is that building, as I imagine a lot of leakage around those windows and weatherboard construction? Double-car garage? Water intensive landscape? Nah throw some solar panels on the roof and you'll be okay.

[@marthaalmendarez8788]

Love your ted talks ❤️❤️

[@alaynatoy9536]

Such an excellent presentation! Thank you for your research and efforts put forth to spread such a positive message

[@MegaPruddy]

very informative, thanks for sharing Shad

[@kaylareid3722]

Amazing video... Audrey sent me💖

[@miguelvasquez6069]

I think you’re doing great thing shad

[@XXLiLMANXXPRODIGY]

Very informative bro I’ve watched it multiple times and I learn something new each time keep it up! 💪🏽

[@mannysouza1766]

Great topic David and very well presented!!!

[@graceimel1196]

Let’s go Shad 👍🏻

[@barkeater7867]

Dave "man tough crowd here" Shad great stuff Dave

[@KJSvitko]

Drive your electric vehicle with free fuel from your solar panels. Net Zero and Passive House construction techniques are the future. Saving energy saves money on utilities. Air sealing, great insulation, super efficient heating and air conditioning, LED lighting systems, Triple pane windows and European style triple seal doors, Solar panels with battery storage and an electric vehicle charger in the garage. Air sealing and blower door testing is an under appreciated energy saver. The cost of solar energy has dropped dramatically and continues to fall.

[@erincorrigan9483]

Yeah!! So great! 👌🏽

[@essperkins3244]

Great Job David , came to show support. Very informative with a movement ! Keep it up, you’ll only become better and better .

[@cadenblessing]

Aye Shad wassup! This is my 2nd time watching your Talk! I learned more this time watching it! Your great man keep it up

[@EatingAppleSeeds]

I am SHOCKED

[@drev9649]

YES SHADDDDDD

[@katlyncunningham6053]

this is so amazing! ive discussed this is my ap environmental science class before and i agree with you 100%. definitely should be a featured talk because it is so important to the changing world!!!!!

[@erseladautaj88]

Shad killing it

[@bradleymarcod]

David Shad, This is a great concept, and I support educating the general population on the idea of building green; however, you failed to mention the challenges. Despite the advances in making green technology more marketable, a lot of building material and equipment required to make a net-zero home are still costly to the average consumer. Showing viewers the potential lifecycle cost savings could have been effective. In addition, builders still need to integrate into this movement. Design details can be more complex for these types of buildings, making the construction challenging; more experienced, competent, and specialty contractors need to enter the industry. Maybe - in theory - we would benefit from the consolidation of the building industry. Lastly, you should have mentioned the prevalent building standards used as "road maps" when building net-zero. We need consumers to understand what it entails to build green, not just the benefits. Thanks, Michael P. Donovan, Donovan Family of Companies

[@desireefuentes7752]

You’re amazing and so inspiring!

[@najeebspicer850]

The “John” never closes 😂 good job buddy!!

[@entertaintech4374]

Regulations are what drove the massive efficiency of Japanese automobiles. And engineers rose to the challenge.

[@mj-brozek]

Great point of view to share to others! Keep it up.

[@shelbyteitelbaum6013]

I don't think I've ever seen you smile until this video

[@sarasiffermann9874]
