  • The Venus Project is the most coherent, logical approach to eradicate many counterproductive acts in society and environment. Indeed, is the only way out from this mess.

    The actual system is destroying your, mine and everybody else's environment at an incredible rate. Trying to fix this system and rename it isn't the right direction! We urgently must change for a better system.

    Do reaserch, learn, and THINK WISELY

  • Money talks, if the world is in trouble it's because the ultra wealthy want it that way, as long as they don't suffer they could care less if all the rest of us suffer and die, only when they choke on poison air or retch their guts out on rotten food will they want the rest of us to do something, first step to a new world , kill the rich.

  • I'm tired of environmentalists at TED and their sanctimonious attitudes towards regular people. It's not a matter of the regular man wanting to change, but being able to do so that it doesn't cause them or their families to starve. They need to point that attitude towards the establishment.

  • Thank you @Yann + 1 I love travelling from my inner heart. So TED talks, like Yann Arthus-Bertrand captures fragile Earth in wide-angle , really give me a big image what the human can really have done on our mother earth. In one life, what it really matters if I could keep walking on.

  • The earth has the antidote it is arrogant of civilized man to think they have the solution. Humble down "MAN"
