You do know that your bike was made out of fossil fuels right? The machines that bent the metals are running on electricity, which is processed by fossil fuels. Your tires are made from petroleum. Your shoes, they have rubber right? They are also based on petroleum. Reducing our carbon footprint won't necessarily stop the process. Unless we go back to the way the world was about three or four centuries ago nothing will change.

MFW I don't steal, and have never lost my job due to a poor work ethic. Honestly, where did you come up with that pathetic idea?
No, although I am poor, I am only 20, and therefore, the housing bubble didn't effect me.
Yes, I could definitely see the world ending. We are quickly losing our resources, but the fact is, I honestly don't care. Humans are fucking terrible and deserve death. If someone gave me the option to kill everyone, including myself, I would do it in a heartbeat

@arkangelzero Read researched peer reviewed papers. This man is a genius. Although he is virtually predicting the end of the world within a century, most of what he says is true. Did you not experience the American bubble pop in the 2000s? Clearly empathy is too good to be true. People are nurtured to self-interested, and people like you, probably steal from others because you lack work ethic. Why don't you look into this video, and see that what this guy is calling for is change?

The problem is, we're all hypocrites. Everyone that went to that seminar, probably including Jeremy Rifkin, took either a private jet or plane to get there. FOSSIL FUEL CONSUMPTION. CHECK YOUR CARBON FOOTPRINT. WALK OR RIDE A BIKE.

This video honestly makes me laugh. The pathetic view this man holds is horrid. The only people who could honestly believe this are those with little life experience, and incurable stupidity.

This is one of the most outstanding and brilliant talks I've ever heard. Just thinking about the evolution of empathy makes me feel connected to the entire human race.
