Richard Branson is the coolest and bravest man in the world!
The definition of education is: Knowledge acquired by learning and instruction. I can safely say that when it comes to education, Sir Richard Branson is well Educated whether it be formal or not. His knowledge and education is based on what he needs to know. Education is nothing if it isn't backed by action. And he has evidently backed his education with action which caused him to be one of the most greatest and successful men of our time!
Sir Richard Branson as he admits is not the smartest guy in the world, however he is a visionary and when he has a vision, he then goes about surrounding himself with people smarter than him... he then gives then a lot of equity in the venture to complete and make the vision a reality and then he steps out of the way to let them do their job and supports them in their cause/crusade however he can and he has become a billionaire from this.
He is an extraordinary man!
Information with Inspiration

Such a great guy & very sucsessful, so many entrepreneurs seem to have Dyslexia? I to have struggled with accountants & book keepers meetings, felt so good to here he has been there too! Thank for posting.
I love this guy

So you're saying Richard Branson has mastered mans ultimate dream of Time Travel ! :D
He is cool!!! A great guy!
Biography of Branson helps me to learn English!
Me too
you're awesome Sir... taking calculated risks when others just make calculated ugly comments....♥✴♥
Or if we can effectively store the co2 in the atmosphere and bring it into storage tanks and slowly use it on plants. Maybe by pumping it from the atmosphere into containment tanks. Or when they are burnt instead of releasing it everywhere from factories they are stored and released at effective rates into environment via calculated intake per cubic meter of rainforest so forth.
he is sooo cool
I urge all billionaires to help kids in Africa, India and other world nations. They are our future generations.
we know fish split h2o using gill to hydrogen and take oxygen in there are some filters to split it. If we can split co2. Plants split co2 if we can genetically modify the process of which plants do or isolate it to speed it up.
@beatles61 Anaerobic Digestion: A process of capturing methane from green waste material (biomass). This process is toxic, but well suited for distributed power generation when co-located with electrical generation equipment.
Way cool Dude! No Fried Eyes Richard.
@lkokoki Is it really necessary to resort to such language? If you disagree with someone, then by all means, use all the passion you can garner and let that disagreement be known in no uncertain terms. But do so without labeling the other party as something other than what they are: A human being with opinions like you and me.
I myself have much doubt about this whole global warming stuff but still found the Branson interview to be most enlightening.
I wouldn't call Dyslexia a learning disability but rather the ability to have ideas and visions! In our society everybody "qualifies" for a disorder!
Other than that, there IS NO clean fuel, Mr. Branson. Not if you have take away food from the poor in the world to "produce" fuel.
I'm sad we lost Virgin Megastore! :(
I believe that the government should invest into solar panels that power alot of well populated areas like lights and street lights. Also invest into wind turbines or solar panels for home use aswell as everything that uses electricity emits carbon into the air we breathe and need as turbines and solar panels will not and also will save you money in the long run on your electric bills
@DgurlSunshine
Hemp produces the most biomass of any crop, which is why it is the natural choice for an energy crop. Hemp converts the sun's energy into cellulose faster than any other plant, through photosynthesis. Hemp can produce 10 tons of biomass per acre every four months. Enough energy could be produced on 6% of the land in the U.S. to provide enough energy for our entire country (cars, heat homes, electricity, industry) -- and we use 25% of the world's energy.
Extracting the co2 and methane would mean we fly a medium around such as an aeroplane or jetcraft on a very high altitude and dispense some form a chemical or gas to neutralise the carbon or extract it. Otherwise we apply more oxygen or poison it more or break the co2 in carbon and oxygen taking the carbon down or letting it rain down. Otherwise we need monitor the levels first carefully using maybe satelittes discover the levels we need perhaps use a rocket to that altitude to extract the co2
Too lovely. 333 : )
I think the project to fly into outer space is good, they advertised in mail online recently, I phoned them up pissed off. Normally, all my calls to this company have been really civil and friendly, overall they've been ok, I wish they would not advertise with mail online.
I know what you mean, but i wouldn't use the word slow, lots of people use that word to say stupid and Dyslexics are not necessarily stupid, they just have problems in taking in information in certain ways, that doesn't mean they can't make intelligent decisions.
It really doesn't help dyslexic people from a coincidence point of view in life when they are referred to as slow/stupid ete.
I'm a dyslexic and have had to deal with this all through schooling and in my day to day life now.

If that's an original joke that is genius. If not then its inspired!
Dear Sir Richard Branson,
A CONCEPT THAT YOU ARE IN A UNIQUE POSITION TO CONSIDER. Very fast train concepts seem transfixed by old rail concepts? WHAT IF? Tubular rim fire contained aircraft with light bodies using hovercraft 360 degree and spinning pilot section nose and held steady with Aeolians on route. Powered on route by electromagnets from wind turbine systems and solar panels? Think expressway tunneling for mountains AND supersonic. Sydney to Melbourne Leare Jets - 2xtube every 30 mins
@beatles61 Hemp is at least four times richer in biomass/cellulose potential than its nearest rivals: cornstalks, sugarcane, kenaf, trees, etc.
he speaks and moves like he's animated by nick park
@elitebman another thing to brush up on every single country is majorly in debt we are talking billions and trillions of dollars planting trees can be a benefit as trees can be very scenic and takes a large roll in this world as they provide the oxygen we breathe the more trees we plant the more habitats animals can live in and better breathing for whatever your roll you have taken in this world if its being a hunter to living on the streets also scenery would bring tourists which bring money
Financial Polis
@koliber231 why?
You don't think a guy who is a multi billionaire and had archived so much in his life can considered great? You must have impossibly high standards.
@DgurlSunshine ... to make methanol? which is just as damaging to the environment?
government health care would never be efficient.
what make u think that? dont know much about him
Like everyone he is partly good and bad. Let's face it, the dude talks alot of bullshit. But I like his attitude for making a difference, and his charitable attitude has to be commended......
I think Virgin is a pretty cool guy. eh sells CDs and doesn't afraid of anything.
That first answer sounds like B.S.
YOUR ANSWER IS LOOSE BIG OIL & REPLACE WITH HEMP....
HE'S REALLY DAVID ICKE,HE'S AN ACTOR....AND HE IS ALSO A REPTILIAN HYBRID....
