  • Carl Sagan for President...if only he were still with us :(

  • One wonders what the right-wing douchebags would say about this. They would dismiss it, they would demand an end to all positive social programmes. Their supporters would cheer, like they do when they hear about the vision that in the future, more people will die from lack of healthcare, as described and wished for by them.

  • 3.40 soo right ,...he died 2,3 eyers later

  • Since the develpment of the Nuclear bomb and about 50 detonations in New Mexico in the 1930's,The 2 that were dropped on Japan,the ones tested in the Pacific,Russia,Chernobyl.The French Pacific detonation. We now have more radioactive isotopes in our dood chain then ever .Thanks to previous improvements in agriculture,nutrition & literacy-education. Which led to "better" scientists,theories and developments in understanding the atom-nucleus. seems that we're paving a road to our own extinction.

  • In elementary and middle school there were often times when I was very hungry. I can tell you that during those times, when you're sitting in a classroom you couldn't care less about what the teacher is trying to teach. There is no motivation to learn either. Only a constant preoccupation with finding something to eat to make that hunger go away. It's a horrible feeling. Through the generosity of the community in which we lived I was able to eat and no longer go hungry. It helped me immensely.

  • thanks agent smith!

  • What a wonderful, intelligent, caring man.

  • you´re right guys...Sagan, and great scientists in general, should be our idols, our children's idols, instead of people like CR7 ( note that i am portuguese)

  • Listening to Dr. Carl Sagan speak about anything is a treat. I great mind that is needed now more than ever. Everyone and their mother should read "The Demon-Haunted World: Science as a Candle in the Dark"! Excellent book! :-)

    Thank you so much for posting this. I posted it on my Facebook page.

  • This is similar to the assertion he made in Demon Haunted World, and, being a person who was born, and grew up in poverty, it moved me greatly.

    It also frightened me, and made me second guess my ability to learn. :P

  • 33 views? This video needs some more traction. Doing what i can...

  • It is still hard for me to recon that the reason and wisdom of Sagan has not taken root in national policies.

    What is the use of building arms, anyhow? Let's abandon the military bs and instead feed, clothe and shelter every human being on this planet which the military budgets would many times over, not one person excluded and we can explore space, together, forever. Peace.
