Found it a little disturbing. Great that exponential growth was touched upon when it comes to technology and the mention of the vastness of our human population.

But not mentioning the other possible SHIFT HAPPENING... that this exponential growth will cause human population to exceed the carrying capacity of our planet.....

made the video clip nothing much more than a narcotic to keep us sleepwalking along that the wonders of globalization and technology will bring us no end to exponential surprises.

Quite a piece of bullshit....

I've been going through Youtube, watching all the stuff. That partiular clip has some points, but lacks impact.

Dr Albert Bartlett on Youtube, 8 parts, goes into exponential growth, but also puts it into perspective, includes limits when applicable. Its a good watch.
