Inspiring TED talk by the head of the X Prizes Foundation, focused on how incredibly creative and innovative us humans can be when put under pressure, with particular attention to climate change and communication.
Considering how bleak many of the stats and talks about our future can be, this video really puts a beautifully optimistic spin on things, pointing out some astounding advances in technology, health and communication which really make you consider our place in the world.
I urge anyone to watch this if they have the time, as it will simply make you just that bit more comfortable about our future and the route we have chosen. Yeah there will be some extremely bumpy rides along the way, but we’re too damn smart to let society collapse just yet.
