MR Kaku... over the past few centuries, the world has put a lot of effort into making people have a voice in how the world is run, albeit I personally believe democracy to be very primative in the respect since majority rules, the minority has to live with it... so what if unifying the world in an attempt to create a type 1 civilization is destroying personally equality, and the different ideas from each culture that helped further this world to where it is today?
If you like what he says about becoming a type one civilisation, and you want to see it in your life time, you all need to become environmentalists. You all need to recycle, you all need to reduce your impact, you need to understand the issues and you all need to become more involved in the network society. It is as simple as that. Get passionate, get angry, demand change.
@lukster1991 You don't need to become an environmentalist, you just need to increase recycling efforts and reduce oil/gas/electricity consumption. An environmentalist is sort of the extreme side of that (i.e. don't hurt animals and trees).
In fact, its businesses that need to start doing this, every time I go into a restaurant in America, I see ZERO recycling containers, which is ironic since most of the packaging in a fast food meal is recyclable.
To the people who think he is smart... listen to what he's saying. He's saying that for world peace we need a more globalized society. This is New World Order crap. He also talks about playing with the weather, as if it's just eating
I wish i could spend the rest of my life discussing and talking with this man. Nothing beats a good,proper and most importantly intelligent discussion.
I now hate where I am. being 19 with all sorts of age increasing drugs comming around to where I could live to 150, I may get to see civilization end. What great time to be alive as part of history in alien logs :D
I wish I was born in a type 1 civilization really. Totally ready to join that, but it probably won't come to fruition before I am dead. Well, I am still glad to have this life, and I cherish it. However it feels frustrating when so many people still holds on to their primitive sides.
If people can simply stop being so extreme, then we could probably reach that in a few decades. Humanity's worst enemy is as always itself, that won't change regardless of the outcome.
The only way Humankind can save itself from extinction is if we come together as ONE. Expose the Truth to the blind so that they can see the tyrannical and oppressive governments/corperations that have been committing crimes against Humanity under a false Name for hundreds of years. Once the People stand together against our True common enemy and shed our Demons can we truly be Free in Peace and Prosperity. Regardless of birthplace ALL of us come from the SAME place, we need to remember that..
I disagree with some things you say. I believe in order to save ourselfs we must be at peace with not being one but respect the ones who do want to become one. We dont need to stand together against enemies we need to educate the world and abolish the need to fight. The need and want to fight is fear based and cowardly in nature. True self power will give birth to great societies without the need to fight. Seems to me you are too caught up in conspiracy and war.

Kaku is excellent at formulating model of thinking and organizing information into simple and useful patterns that average everyday Joes like me can grasp. Good on him!
Religion must be abolished if mankind is to progress to a scientifically based society. We must create a society in which mankind is liberated from the chains of oppression and religious fundamentalism.
@dethronegod123 I agree, but have you thought about the worldview a scientific society would bring forth? It is not a good one. This capitalism and all will destroy humankind from a cultural aspect of life. Science in itself is not bad, but you need to understand why science is, why there is science and that science is used as a tool of control and elitism.

@drugsarepeople theo _ greek _plato was gay and gave you atomic weights. Is the table of elements gay, hey everybody our saviour's mum's a virgin!
and god will save you if you pay him enough. No sorry god is unknown, correlates with the universe, maybe CERN will unlock the god particle. And unleash the end of all things to come (i prey/hope/wish it unlocks a type 1 society)
@fnatic9 WWII have you actually read any history you twit? And what the fuck does WWII have to do with this set topic, you complete numbnut, I hope you havn't had offspring i.e. to breed, please don't.
@fnatic9 if he's half right in your eyes (a genius to any individual with an iq you need 3 characters/numbers to desribe, not that most with 2 are wrong, hey you may have 3, but they probably revolve around, you simply frustrate me and I'll leave it at that) Sorry Dr. KaKU FANS FOR THIS SHITE RANT AGAINST A CLOSET BOY, you play with yourself right, oi everyone he touches willys. Please don't breed.
@drugsarepeople WWII had a huge part to play in the formation of the EU and UN, which are precursors to a type 1 civilisation. Anyway enough with your corrupt and deranged bablings, homosexuals are unble to come to any truth because of the severity of their sin. When you commit such acts your conscience becomes dirty, God gives you over to a depraved mind unable to think properly. Jesus Christ destroyed the power of all sin on the cross, you can be set free from it if you repent.
@fnatic9 nein das ist nicht zehr recht mein liebling, the english language was created in west germany many centuries ago, we all live in america, i am not personally gay, capasa hombre' you lack intellect, please shutup otherwise you will make people like you overseas hate americans, , i like (it is sad or bad) that you don't like your world zero boy, you could never be 1%, cause you can't fuck a guy you'll never earn your brown wings son, you will be a great cumcatcher for a straight guy 1 day
@fnatic9 repent what jesus, zie juda, that changed his own religion, I start to see madness to your madness, splendid you live in sadness. Me personally had a great day.. My hairdesser is gay, if you had half a brain, you'd realise if they are attracted to you, they would probably hold a razot more steady. thggen again your probaly obese and unshaven 4/5 of america fuck yeah freedom is the only way.....yada yada, Gnrl Patton cried at you blouses running from berlin white flags in hand. Russia!
@drugsarepeople idiota, fucking read history before you bag a physicist, or you may be told to shut-up by a truck driver, who enjoys motocross racing, sunday bbq's and can tolerate people from total different walks of life, americans like you piss off George Carlin, he;d fuck you two, he;s straight, it's just the beast under your bed, in your closet in your head, closet boy. you get so offended by a group? explain with logic, not theos why?
@fnatic9 Sir Gustav Princip, Franz Ferdinand, the balkans, oh you went to school yeah, please lie more, your on show. Sorry bud 1 isn't for stupid go fetch, sit ubu sit good dog.
@fnatic9 sin, straight sex is a sin too numbnut, did you actually read anything? do you just try to communicate with me? is this the longest and most time any individual paid attention to you, your mum went through labor (sinner, she had sex) enjoyed it hedonistic bitch oops I adopted your attitude, do you understand how programmed to fail you are? for your sake more so ya mamas grow up.
@drugsarepeople Youre like some jibbering demon jumping around throwing shit all over the place. Everyone reading your comments is probably likewise a little braindamaged. Heres some advice. Go to your kitchen, take a knife, then take off all your clothes and start running in the street. Some men will come and give you a new home. Thank me later, peace.
@fnatic9 no thanking, idiota, dog. intellectuals use a scroll button. not type 0's. you could evolve and apologise for your belligerence towards 20th century history, but you my cretin are a terrorist.
@fnatic9 what can I thank you for? your abuse and self righteous belligerence? please. go back to your porn, you say you hate it, but i bet you do like gaga. and these things are only in your mind because you allow it to disturb your primitive theos based brain i.e a terrorist mindset.
Way to go. -_- You just painted all the terrorists as pro-theocracy radicals. And to call this act of terrorism supported by a handful of people as a global trend - seriously?
what the fuck is @harbidere talking about???? really! We live in a world were hunger is still a problem and this guy is talking about the 'global fashion of Gucci and Prada'. That's hilarious! Yep, indeed there are two trends in this society: the jerks and the idiots!
I think he just philosphed about evolution of civilizations always becoming more tolerant, and now thinks everything he sees should be interpreted as such. If he looks at the Internet, doesn't he see what is one of the most looked channels? RW Johnson. He's always laughing at other people. Doesn't he see all the tv shows about laughing at fat, ugly or... people.
I would like to see Earth become a type 1 civilization, but there's still a good chance that it will never happen, as said. Also, Michio simplifies a number of things in the video, as he tends to do. Terrorism is absolutely not one of the major things holding us back. Political inefficiency and corruption, economic systems controlled by the rich for the rich, etc., etc. all are posing greater threats. These are remnants of the past that must be destroyed before any progress can be made.
@YevgeniyLankin Who cares? What can we do down here? You can think what you think, but if I believed in heaven I would still give a f*ck about the people down on earth and the society after me.
id like to see this type 1 civilization. i also like his examples, the federation and the starwars empire. if we are in the century that develops to this. its the choices we make now that will affect the ideals of this civilization in the next era of humanity.
Given that time is a human construct used to categorize things into past and present, and that the Universe (imo) is in fact infinite (i.e. without time, has simply always *existed*)...
...I find it hard to fathom that "Type IV" civilizations exist. Given an infinite amount of space and "time", how has one of these civilizations (to our knowledge) not yet evolved? Is it just a question of dumb luck (i.e. probability) that such a civilization haven't found us yet?
Fantasy. The self-organizing universe will produce a single dominate culture. Not all other cultures will be forgotten. As English becomes more wide spread other Anglo traits will follow. This is okay, the Anglo hegemony is not forced on anyone. They seek it because it is the most positive. Multiculturalism is destructive in America. If people do not know why America is great, they lose track of the potential for their own freedom, physically, mentally and spiritually.

Wait did you say that pop will become a planetary music *runs out to window and yells why world why!* Well anyway I hope we become type 1 soon i'm sick of all the prejudice racism and stereotypes in our world. I also hope that I get to witness it unless it is an all out war that is...
@Wyzzkyd we are not reverting to shit, we grow old and we are not as cool as the new generation. You are nothing but a complete bafoon who does not want to accept that.
@Wyzzkyd I think Beiber actually i ignore him, in response to asian einstein, drop the asian part, are you cork-asian? does that offend you yeah, scientifically based on descent, if you are complimrnting him. Then yes.
@Wyzzkyd us foreign policy has good/bad sides, it is wise to not bite off more than you can chew, you may choke, spit or spew, offend others around you, if this reminds you of the bootlegging era under the volstead act, this disease spread overseas, J.E.Hoover was dubious at best, then again the work he did inevitably pushes for a logical type 1 society, TAO, no-one is perfect, Jim and Alphonze would agree on that. Dr. Kaku has left a legacy in his name, god bless him, please don't tease him,
@Wyzzkyd I think Beiber actually i ignore him, in response to asian einstein, drop the asian part, are you cork-asian? does that offend you yeah, scientifically based on descent, if you are complimrnting him. Then yes.
@Wyzzkyd ok I have to be honest, maybe I am too old and cynical, Jistin Bieber could be the world's debutante of a new type/group to upset the @fnatics and his brethren which unfortunately we watch suffer amongst us 'The go-go boy'. Dr. Kaku deserves better comments. See below. He wants us all to think, not recant lies as truths (theos defeats logic at this time) this upsets him. And it should upset us all alot more, we are all in debt to him for the knowledge he gas given.
There is also the sad possibility that we are actually one of the oldest civilizations in our perceivable part of the galaxy. In other words, we are looking to the stars to find others that came before us, but we are those people so in reality, in the centuries to come, we will have to be the one that others look for. Statistics can create the false intuition of that being unlikely but remember, for the person that wins the lottery, their chances of winning were 100% (after the fact).
well why would they want our planet. if they are alive and well i don't think they need our resources or they would have taken them already. and if they are our creators why would they attack us.
@AnonymousActivity Sorry, I meant creatures not creatores. Maybe they are out of resources on their planet and are searching for a new planet to live in and they just found our planet. It wouldn't be nice to get imprisoned by them because we don't have any weapons. I know that the weapons are not made for this purpose and I wish they were not used against humans but not everything about weapons are bad if they are used for the right purpose.
But they found that new planet Kepler 22b that most likely has the same conditions as our planet so if they really needed resources they would be set for a while... and I don't think a highly intelligent race of beings would enslave us now after all this time.
This is the reason why I believe terrorist organization's efforts are ultimately futile. Love great minds like this that make extremely complex issues seem effortlessly simple.
lol this video was made last year. Be easy on him. Yea the European union isn't working out well right now. The problem is government not only need to govern but also need to respect rights of the people. Some of the countries in the European union just sucked the money from other countries like Germany. In order to have a type 1 civilization everyone needs to CHOOSE to cooperate all the way to the individual level. We can't just forced it on ppl.
This man is definitely going to be the greatest writer and creator of post-modern philosophy. Because we all know, this man can't be wrong, he can only be right.
(To those which understand the point I have proven here. let me bring up another point. Necessity is the mother of invention, if such is true, the statement 'Experience is the mother of illusion' is also quite true. A cookie to those which understand.) :)
I think we can do it... sure there are lots of idiots in the world but a lot of us aren't! We have had chances to destroy the earth before, and mainly in the cold war. We had enough nuclear bombs between Russia and America it could kill every man woman and child on earth 4 times..... but we had reasoning that told us; well what's the whole point of fighting, if no one is going to be alive to see who won? Maybe civilizations out there didn't have that reasoning and they destroyed themselves.
@lmnopqa it's probably true. Here on earth, we have the ruins of the Aztecs, Romans, Ancient Greeks, etc. It stands to reason there will be ruins on other planets. Ruins from long dead civilisations destroyed by their environment or themselves.
I'm personally a very pessimistic person in terms of outlook for our future. To be otherwise is nearly impossible in today's society because of the sensationalist news networks that report only the negative stories. But even though I'm pessimistic, I will fight to the death to try and push the world away from the darkness that seems so inevitable, towards the future I know is possible, no matter how improbable. I may be pessimistic, but I still have hope.
Many would argue that the key to happiness is simplicity. Perhaps we are losing something very dear; in other words: are we really advancing? how? Medicine and knowledge (understanding) are certainly good counter-arguments but it makes one think! thanks Michio Kaku!
"Any intelligent fool can make things bigger, more complex, and more violent. It takes a touch of genius - and a lot of courage - to move in the opposite direction." ~E.F. Schumacher
terrorism or a word "terrorist" is made up by us goverment, like everything else connected to that. i never heard people from the middle east useing a word "terrorist". "We are terrorists, we`re coming to kill you" or something like that.
At the end is the optimistic thinking that I love! Instead of people thinking that we are the failures of the universe we need to start believing that our planet it successful and that we can actually be BETTER than other species that might be out there
A far greater threat than terrorism is accidental nuclear war. All it takes is a an early warning system malfunction and a couple panicky people in authority and hundreds of millions of people will die.
Terrorism, really? This is intellectually extremely weak. Terrorists are impotent. They have zero capacity to "destroy the world." By definition they use terror because they don't have actual force to compel their views on others. The minute intelligent people shrug and say "huh, so what" when they realize 9/11 events are trivial compared to slipping in the shower terrorism is a big zero.
@aluisious Terrorists and everyone else consumed with petty differences are a big reason why we are still a loooooooooong way from being a truly unified planet and becoming a type I civilization. I think he was driving more at that than saying they will "destroy the world" as you put it.
@ILAwLRongTyme Unified planet? People who live next door to me think my political views are going to destroy the country. A unified planet is not going to happen until human nature changes.
The two major trends don't "win over" each other in the permanent sense. They're part of a cycle that will go on indefinitely for the history of all humanity. There were multicultural scientists and ignorant terrorists a thousand years ago and there will be multicultural scientists and ignorant terrorists when we are exploring the sea of stars.
@harbidere Yes they culturely and scientificly uplifted the krogan to fight th rachni. After they succeded they were rewarded with many worlds but they ruthlesly started expanding and taking over other worlds. The virus was created for the survival of the galaxy.

@drugsarepeople WWII had a huge part to play in the formation of the EU and UN, which are precursors to a type 1 civilisation. Anyway enough with your corrupt and deranged bablings, homosexuals are unble to come to any truth because of the severity of their sin. When you commit such acts your conscience becomes dirty, God gives you over to a depraved mind unable to think properly. Jesus Christ destroyed the power of all sin on the cross, you can be set free from it if you repent.

I would like to see Earth become a type 1 civilization, but there's still a good chance that it will never happen, as said. Also, Michio simplifies a number of things in the video, as he tends to do. Terrorism is absolutely not one of the major things holding us back. Political inefficiency and corruption, economic systems controlled by the rich for the rich, etc., etc. all are posing greater threats. These are remnants of the past that must be destroyed before any progress can be made.

Given that time is a human construct used to categorize things into past and present, and that the Universe (imo) is in fact infinite (i.e. without time, has simply always *existed*)...
...I find it hard to fathom that "Type IV" civilizations exist. Given an infinite amount of space and "time", how has one of these civilizations (to our knowledge) not yet evolved? Is it just a question of dumb luck (i.e. probability) that such a civilization haven't found us yet?

Fantasy. The self-organizing universe will produce a single dominate culture. Not all other cultures will be forgotten. As English becomes more wide spread other Anglo traits will follow. This is okay, the Anglo hegemony is not forced on anyone. They seek it because it is the most positive. Multiculturalism is destructive in America. If people do not know why America is great, they lose track of the potential for their own freedom, physically, mentally and spiritually.

There is also the sad possibility that we are actually one of the oldest civilizations in our perceivable part of the galaxy. In other words, we are looking to the stars to find others that came before us, but we are those people so in reality, in the centuries to come, we will have to be the one that others look for. Statistics can create the false intuition of that being unlikely but remember, for the person that wins the lottery, their chances of winning were 100% (after the fact).

Terrorism, really? This is intellectually extremely weak. Terrorists are impotent. They have zero capacity to "destroy the world." By definition they use terror because they don't have actual force to compel their views on others.
