    So sad to see so few viewing this video when it is so important to all of us.

      So all of us watching needs to share in as many ways as possible. I live in a very red rural community so I was thinking of hitting some of the major points in a letter to the editor in local newspaper. Plus sending it to other papers in the area. This includes a community that is a company town which developed around a major chemical company. Any other ideas, I love love to hear and open to cooperation in getting these ideas out.

    Mainstream media have no place for Jeffrey Sachs sadly. He is indeed a wise human being.

      @@Linda-zb6zq Fully agreed. Let's help to raise his profile by sharing as mainstream media hardly give him a voice.

    Always enjoy listening to professor Sachs. He makes you feel positive about the world again. Leaders should listen to him. May he lives a healthy long life.

    one good way to start would be to change all the military bases into co-operation centers

      Wonderful idea! Before 9/11, they more closely resembled that because Germans and others would visit and purchase products at U.S. bases in Germany, for example.
      We need much more international collaboration. However, it is an obstacle for Americans to even employ other Americans who lived abroad for many years.

      They are approved with the idea of cooperation on security and generally lead to more security that countries think outweigh the benefits (and might if you aren’t living in Yemen, Pakistan, Somalia, Mali, Iraq etc.)
      The problem is that the “cooperation” is very lopsided with most people seeing no benefit (local military leaders might not be the best advocate for what’s best for people who would have guessed 😒) and if the relationship turns ugly like in Iraq you are left with huge hole in your wallet with no recourse.

    I enjoy listening to this man, as I do to several other progressive thinkers. However, one thing just keeps bothering me. There is so much talk about sustainability. Sustainability of resources, reduction in emissions, management ....... That is great! We live in a closed system, I think that population sustainability is also a necessary issue. It hardly goes to reason that we try to make a loop of resources and have a continuing increase in population growth that needs more resources. Population has to be talked about.

      Jay, you seem to have been absent when the world has learned that we have a distribution problem, not a population problem. Perhaps your understandings should join the rest of us in the 21st century. The latest thing is that women, on a worldwide scale, are more concerned with pursuing their careers, not having children.

      With both overall human fertility levels and reproduction rates across the globe turning negative, I think the corporate controlled UN Agenda 2021 and Agenda 2030 are well on track. I don't think it is human over-population that you should be worrying about but under-population.

      I think it's much more the way our populations are being managed or really unmanaged in regards to urban, rural housing planning, not reducing the need for two cars per family or even a car at all by better public transportation which many other countries already have and maintain. Solar, wind, geothermal power sources built into homes, multifamily buildings and buildings certified energy smart, houses/public and private buildings which I think are just as renewable as solar or whatever because the amount of energy used is so low it equals or beats renewables/fossil fuel dual capable. Scrapping current regulation, legislative institutions (including the people in place or charge) they are absolutely corrupted beyond reform or any more opportunities to cheat, Rob, hurt people.

    First is To Revamp the US School Education System. That is where the Future Generations Learn & Educate themselves to learn Right ( TRUTH ) from Wrong (LIES ). Make Learning the Right Skills rather than Dabbling in Social Media , Game Cultures , Gender Specifics , Transgender Acceptance without a Clue through Immaturity of their Age if that helps in anyway in their Future.

    A much better solution is to use the electricity to make liquid fuel which can be used in the cars vi have now, and in the cars of the future with fuel cells, it can be stored without los, distributed via the infrastructure we already have.
