WEBVTT - Hey Bill Nye, The Science Guy! 0:00:10.160 --> 0:00:13.680 Hey, guys, it's us Brothers. Your favorite podcast related to us? Kevin, 0:00:13.880 --> 0:00:16.960 there was a season you were kind of like campaigning. 0:00:16.960 --> 0:00:19.439 You were a flat earther. I like to get a 0:00:19.560 --> 0:00:21.479 rise from people, So you think that you were just 0:00:21.520 --> 0:00:22.919 doing it. Oh, it was a bit. It was a 0:00:22.960 --> 0:00:25.279 complete bit. There's no chance that Earth was flat, but 0:00:25.480 --> 0:00:27.680 it was pretty fun to just get people riled up 0:00:27.720 --> 0:00:29.880 if you like pushed them hard enough that you've actually 0:00:29.880 --> 0:00:32.879 believed that. See, here's the thing you say that. 0:00:33.560 --> 0:00:36.839 You say that prove it, but you always say that 0:00:36.920 --> 0:00:39.240 after prove it, which makes me think that you're leaving 0:00:39.240 --> 0:00:42.960 the possibility that you can do a told you so 0:00:43.080 --> 0:00:45.640 later on in life. Should we all be, you know, 0:00:45.720 --> 0:00:47.360 surprised by what is absolutely not? 0:00:48.080 --> 0:00:51.080 Now we have receipts, we have a podcast.

Environmental hipster 0:04:15.680 --> 0:04:17.120 or a groovy thing, that's what it called. It was 0:04:17.120 --> 0:04:20.440 actually called the environmental hipster groovy. So why were you there? Yeah? 0:04:20.560 --> 0:04:22.360 I was EI there. I was the I don't care 0:04:22.360 --> 0:04:27.120 about it, the groovy thing. He was the environment you're 0:04:27.160 --> 0:04:27.720 the groovy thing. 0:04:27.839 --> 0:04:30.880 May I ask you, sir, what was your impressions of 0:04:30.960 --> 0:04:31.919 Joe when you met him? 0:04:32.640 --> 0:04:33.719 He raved about you? 0:04:33.720 --> 0:04:34.600 No no comment. 0:04:34.880 --> 0:04:40.000 Yeah, that's right.

Yeah, and sometimes if the teacher was bored 0:04:47.520 --> 0:04:50.160 enough or maybe hungover. Now that we're adults, MA understand, 0:04:50.440 --> 0:04:52.360 they'd put you on the screen. They'd wheeled the TV 0:04:52.480 --> 0:04:54.920 in and you know, ship was going to go off 0:04:55.080 --> 0:04:57.400 if bill Ny was on the TV. So you changed 0:04:57.400 --> 0:04:59.839 my life?

That 0:05:07.160 --> 0:05:09.000 was the goal of the show, to get people excited 0:05:09.040 --> 0:05:09.640 about science. 0:05:09.640 --> 0:05:12.040 Give us the background, like how did you go from 0:05:13.000 --> 0:05:17.039 working as a stand up comedian to first Boeing engineer? 0:05:17.360 --> 0:05:20.480 That's right, so you're an engineer by trade. Give us 0:05:20.480 --> 0:05:20.960 a background. 0:05:21.760 --> 0:05:26.800 I still have a license. Everybody engineering license. So I 0:05:26.839 --> 0:05:30.040 went to engineering school because I like bicycles and airplanes. 0:05:30.480 --> 0:05:31.680 Who doesn't kind of thing? 0:05:32.000 --> 0:05:32.440 Yeah? 0:05:32.480 --> 0:05:36.560 And then I was graduated in nineteen seventy seven. 0:05:37.320 --> 0:05:41.080 WHOA, that's great, back in your twentieth century. And then 0:05:42.480 --> 0:05:46.080 oh it's on our headphones. I have a sound sounds great, 0:05:46.080 --> 0:05:50.800 it's good cheering and clapping. It's a little aggressive thing. Anyway, 0:05:50.839 --> 0:05:51.400 it's all good. 0:05:52.400 --> 0:05:57.640 I claim that Steve Martin's first two albums, Let's Get 0:05:57.680 --> 0:06:01.080 a Small, Wild and Crazy Guy, they were so popular. 0:06:03.360 --> 0:06:08.240 They were so popular that that weekend after the second 0:06:08.240 --> 0:06:11.960 one came out, every big city in North America had 0:06:12.080 --> 0:06:17.640 one or two comedy clubs, and along with that, Warner 0:06:17.640 --> 0:06:21.760 Brothers Record sponsored the Steve Martin Lookalike Contest. The guy 0:06:21.880 --> 0:06:25.360 who had been my freshman roommate, Dave Lax, was still 0:06:25.360 --> 0:06:28.919 a friend mine, and he comes hurrying over to you 0:06:29.000 --> 0:06:30.440 got to see this guy. You got to see this 0:06:30.520 --> 0:06:32.400 He's just like you. The way he moves, just like you. 0:06:32.440 --> 0:06:35.599 He talks like when I saw the video of Steve 0:06:35.640 --> 0:06:36.839 Martin at the boarding house. 0:06:36.880 --> 0:06:37.960 Anyway, I entered the. 0:06:37.960 --> 0:06:41.120 Steve Martin look at Like Contest a year later in 0:06:41.200 --> 0:06:44.880 a completely different city, pressured to enter by a completely 0:06:44.920 --> 0:06:49.160 different set of friends, and I won in Seattle. N 0:06:49.640 --> 0:06:54.440 I did not advance beyond Seattle, but after that people 0:06:54.520 --> 0:06:57.760 wanted me to do Steve Martin routines at a party 0:06:57.920 --> 0:06:59.280 or an event or a thing. 0:06:59.480 --> 0:07:01.680 Sure, did you get hired? Like, did you make some 0:07:01.720 --> 0:07:04.280 cash on the side for college man beer money? That's 0:07:04.320 --> 0:07:08.279 why twenty five bucks. Yeah, exactly, And so I eventually 0:07:08.960 --> 0:07:10.040 doing stand up this and that. 0:07:10.880 --> 0:07:13.600 I started writing jokes for a comedy show, almost live 0:07:13.640 --> 0:07:16.960 and so on that show. One time a guest didn't 0:07:17.040 --> 0:07:20.120 show up Ros Schaeffer. Have you ever met Ros Schaeffer? 0:07:20.640 --> 0:07:22.520 He was still a dear friend of my host to 0:07:22.520 --> 0:07:24.600 show you know, we Bill, why don't you that science? 0:07:24.600 --> 0:07:27.040 You're always talking about science, Why don't you? So I 0:07:27.120 --> 0:07:31.840 did the household uses of liquid nitrogen. It was funny, 0:07:32.960 --> 0:07:36.280 and so in a writer's meeting, Ross said you'd be 0:07:37.000 --> 0:07:39.920 Bill Nye, the science guy or something, and then he 0:07:40.040 --> 0:07:42.800 kind of got up and left. And so one thing 0:07:42.800 --> 0:07:44.720 that I do another you guys, And it took another 0:07:44.760 --> 0:07:46.880 few years to get my own show. 0:07:46.920 --> 0:07:49.640 Wow, and nineteen Emmy Awards later. 0:07:49.720 --> 0:07:54.600 Nineteen yeah, nineteen Emmy Awards, and now it just five 0:07:54.960 --> 0:07:59.680 No wow, young people. Wait, there's more. I just got 0:07:59.720 --> 0:08:03.840 a Lifetime Achievement Emmy, which means you guys, it just 0:08:03.920 --> 0:08:04.840 means the world to me. 0:08:05.160 --> 0:08:06.480 Congratulations, Thank you. 0:08:07.240 --> 0:08:10.119 And I now too have a star on the Walk 0:08:10.120 --> 0:08:10.559 of Fame. 0:08:10.680 --> 0:08:13.600 And you're wearing a very incredible pin if you don't mind, 0:08:13.600 --> 0:08:16.320 I'm yes, I'm wearing tell us about this pin. 0:08:16.760 --> 0:08:23.000 Wealsser, this pin of visit, which one the Presidential Medal 0:08:23.000 --> 0:08:25.640 of Freedom. It just means the world to me, you guys. 0:08:25.680 --> 0:08:31.000 Both of my parents were veterans, everybody, let's digress about this. 0:08:32.160 --> 0:08:36.880 So my dad was a civilian working on Wake Island, 0:08:36.960 --> 0:08:40.920 Middle Pacific Ocean. Nowhere. They were bombed on December eighth, 0:08:40.960 --> 0:08:43.959 which is the same as December seventh, nineteen forty one, 0:08:43.960 --> 0:08:46.360 because the International date line is part of the Japanese 0:08:46.400 --> 0:08:50.240 military strategy to take over Pacific. He spent four years 0:08:50.280 --> 0:08:54.160 as a prisoner of war. My mom, everybody, my mother 0:08:54.679 --> 0:08:57.080 happened to be by the dumb walk of the universe, 0:08:57.240 --> 0:09:03.320 graduated from this liberal arts women's college in Baltimore, Goucher College, 0:09:03.360 --> 0:09:07.720 in the spring of nineteen forty two, right after Pearl Harbor. 0:09:08.720 --> 0:09:12.560 She and several of her classmates were recruited to be 0:09:12.760 --> 0:09:17.480 crypt analysts to break codes. My mother was one of 0:09:17.520 --> 0:09:18.400 the code. 0:09:18.080 --> 0:09:20.480 Girls like the movie Enigma, but different. 0:09:20.559 --> 0:09:23.000 Yeah, except in the US. Yeah, and so this is 0:09:23.160 --> 0:09:26.040 I thank you, well done. So I didn't cue him, 0:09:26.080 --> 0:09:30.040 all right. So, so the British had a few hundred 0:09:30.840 --> 0:09:34.960 women code breakers, the US had ten thousand, just understand 0:09:35.040 --> 0:09:37.920 the US was able to throw a lot at the problem. 0:09:38.720 --> 0:09:44.360 And everybody, I just remind you the Japanese military did 0:09:44.400 --> 0:09:50.560 not include women at all. The Nazis did not include women, and. 0:09:50.480 --> 0:09:52.080 They lost and we won the war. 0:09:52.480 --> 0:09:56.040 Diversity wins wars. Don't come running to me. That is 0:09:56.080 --> 0:10:00.720 objectively true. People, And so my mother, I will just say, 0:10:01.120 --> 0:10:05.520 speaking of objectively, she was good at puzzles, like crossword puzzles, 0:10:05.559 --> 0:10:09.360 and so because she was just really good at that stuff, 0:10:09.720 --> 0:10:10.960 she used to write limericks. 0:10:11.000 --> 0:10:15.120 And that's amazing. Well as as three girl dads here, 0:10:15.160 --> 0:10:16.079 we appreciate that. 0:10:16.200 --> 0:10:20.600 S Yes, that message, it's true, absolutely, and it sort 0:10:20.600 --> 0:10:24.480 of is a segue to a non sequitor. 0:10:24.640 --> 0:10:26.200 A segue to a non sequitor. 0:10:26.200 --> 0:10:28.079 Wait a minute, man, we are going to get fully 0:10:28.160 --> 0:10:32.040 educated on it. It's a sequiteck me. 0:10:32.760 --> 0:10:35.720 The question is, you know, we've wondered, is there any 0:10:35.760 --> 0:10:38.240 science behind that? And you may you know behind what 0:10:38.360 --> 0:10:41.040 the fact that we all have girls, no boys in 0:10:41.040 --> 0:10:44.880 the family, five granddaughters for our parents after four boys 0:10:45.760 --> 0:10:46.600 unknown captain. 0:10:46.920 --> 0:10:50.240 But I read an article actually about it. Slightly. You 0:10:50.320 --> 0:10:52.640 slightly read an article. I don't know if this doesn't 0:10:52.679 --> 0:10:56.000 necessarily apply directly to us, but it could in some capacity. 0:10:56.520 --> 0:11:01.400 So if you talk to Navy seals, they have majority 0:11:01.400 --> 0:11:06.560 of percentage more more females than as daughter. Like there's 0:11:06.559 --> 0:11:09.360 a stressful environment set. They're of the workplace, Yes, so 0:11:09.400 --> 0:11:13.559 there tsosterone is shifted, so they are it produces more 0:11:13.559 --> 0:11:16.760 female energy in their offspring. So you think that we've 0:11:16.760 --> 0:11:19.520 been under the men's amount of stress like Navy seals. No, 0:11:19.559 --> 0:11:22.280 I'm not comparing the two, but in the environment where 0:11:22.280 --> 0:11:24.360 we're around men a lot, where we're in the same 0:11:24.440 --> 0:11:28.200 like living environments, Like it's that thing. Like I said, 0:11:28.640 --> 0:11:31.200 I did to be a clear, I did say this 0:11:31.240 --> 0:11:33.080 does not necessarily apply to us. 0:11:33.200 --> 0:11:36.199 But well, you guys, books have been written about this, 0:11:36.400 --> 0:11:44.800 and reproductive outcomes are a source of fascinations since time immemorial. 0:11:44.960 --> 0:11:48.360 And so sure, I don't know, you guys, there's other 0:11:48.440 --> 0:11:50.640 spec I don't want to I don't know who listens 0:11:50.679 --> 0:11:54.360 to watches this podcast. But there's other speculation about what's 0:11:54.360 --> 0:11:58.120 the other speculation about how one interacts when one is 0:11:58.800 --> 0:11:59.880 producing a k. 0:12:00.080 --> 0:12:05.760 It Oh, so the act of the production speculation has 0:12:05.800 --> 0:12:09.120 been speculated. Well that's actually you know, it's funny enough, 0:12:09.120 --> 0:12:09.960 we do have. 0:12:10.280 --> 0:12:15.080 See it always becomes about sex everything. 0:12:15.080 --> 0:12:17.200 Well, we'll keep it kind of on topic. Then music 0:12:18.280 --> 0:12:22.960 keep it where we will keep it on topic on topic. 0:12:23.320 --> 0:12:27.040 I do have a question about this specifically though, the female. 0:12:27.520 --> 0:12:32.120 They's just get annoying when people ask you question science. No, no, 0:12:32.720 --> 0:12:34.319 what because you're an engineer by trade? 0:12:34.559 --> 0:12:38.400 Yes, well, but also i'd like to consider myself now 0:12:38.640 --> 0:12:39.440 an educator. 0:12:39.720 --> 0:12:43.640 Yes, and yes, absolutely all of us already. 0:12:43.480 --> 0:12:47.920 You want to avoid man's planning. But there's two really 0:12:48.000 --> 0:12:52.800 common ones. But the big one now is are there aliens? 0:12:52.840 --> 0:12:53.200 Are there? 0:12:53.600 --> 0:12:58.720 Well, first of all, there have to be respectfully completely. 0:12:58.880 --> 0:13:03.200 There's two hundred billion stars in our galaxy alone, and 0:13:03.280 --> 0:13:06.520 there may be ten times that many galaxies. 0:13:07.240 --> 0:13:08.920 People, what are the chances? 0:13:08.960 --> 0:13:09.679 How could they're not? 0:13:09.679 --> 0:13:14.199 Pretty selfish? The physics, so it's just it breaks all 0:13:14.240 --> 0:13:17.160 of our laws to be able to travel beyond the 0:13:17.200 --> 0:13:20.040 speed of light, right and so far so far? So 0:13:20.480 --> 0:13:25.400 it has to be the ability to wormhole it essentially 0:13:25.559 --> 0:13:27.839 right to get them here or they are to. 0:13:27.800 --> 0:13:29.720 Get aliens here. That's a whole another. 0:13:29.920 --> 0:13:32.560 Well, by our understanding of these so called well, that's 0:13:33.000 --> 0:13:34.880 it breaks the physics that well. 0:13:34.800 --> 0:13:37.720 No, but hold on to say that there are living 0:13:37.800 --> 0:13:42.960 things or self reproducing organisms elsewhere is one claim. To 0:13:43.040 --> 0:13:47.200 say they've come here in spacecraft and crashed is a 0:13:47.240 --> 0:13:50.320 whole another. And I can tell you, guys, I had 0:13:50.600 --> 0:13:53.440 very low level security clearance for why I worked on 0:13:53.440 --> 0:13:54.240 the spider plane. 0:13:55.880 --> 0:13:57.760 There is so much stuff flying around. 0:13:57.880 --> 0:14:01.120 I cannot even express to you the flying aroundness of 0:14:01.160 --> 0:14:05.600 flying around on the order of a million things flying around, 0:14:05.640 --> 0:14:10.080 certainly several hundred thousand things flying around. Here's one of 0:14:10.120 --> 0:14:10.760 my favorites. 0:14:10.880 --> 0:14:11.319 I love it. 0:14:11.800 --> 0:14:16.800 Why don't they paint spy planes light blue so you 0:14:16.800 --> 0:14:18.839 couldn't see them against the blue sky? 0:14:18.920 --> 0:14:21.640 Why don't they do that? They do do that, and 0:14:21.680 --> 0:14:22.680 you can't see them. 0:14:23.120 --> 0:14:27.960 They're so small against the sky. It's just this rudimentary 0:14:28.040 --> 0:14:28.960 trick that just. 0:14:29.480 --> 0:14:32.840 Wow, there's just that much stuff up there that we 0:14:32.960 --> 0:14:35.480 don't have so much stuff. Well, you said, there's a 0:14:35.520 --> 0:14:37.880 few things that you get asked quite often. So one 0:14:37.960 --> 0:14:40.920 is are there aliens? Where are some other questions that 0:14:40.960 --> 0:14:42.520 Bill and I fans are constantly asking. 0:14:42.760 --> 0:14:44.760 There's a lot of stuff about. 0:14:44.480 --> 0:14:46.760 The earth, health health things. 0:14:46.880 --> 0:14:50.360 Yes, Oh, I don't want to disparage any car brand. 0:14:50.800 --> 0:14:54.760 There is a dealership in Van Eys. There's a guy there, 0:14:54.880 --> 0:14:59.160 an associate this guy believes the Earth is flat. This 0:14:59.360 --> 0:15:03.960 actually just well and so this is somebody who went 0:15:04.000 --> 0:15:07.640 to high school in the US. Earth is not flat, 0:15:07.720 --> 0:15:08.240 you guys. 0:15:08.280 --> 0:15:09.560 Prove it. It is a Yeah. 0:15:09.760 --> 0:15:12.840 It is a hard thing. And I came of age 0:15:12.880 --> 0:15:15.920 you guys when whack a Mole was a new game. 0:15:16.120 --> 0:15:18.600 But this is this is whack a mole. If you 0:15:18.800 --> 0:15:21.480 after you show him this, then that because the for 0:15:21.600 --> 0:15:27.040 this guy, the moon is round, Mars is round, Saturn's round. 0:15:27.080 --> 0:15:31.000 But somehow the Earth is flat, Like dude, it's it's 0:15:31.000 --> 0:15:33.480 a tough one, and uh, you know it is an 0:15:33.480 --> 0:15:38.640 extraordinary claim. When you're on the beach looking the ocean, 0:15:38.720 --> 0:15:40.040 the Earth looks pretty flat. 0:15:40.160 --> 0:15:42.320 Yeah yeah, but then you zoom out and see a 0:15:42.320 --> 0:15:44.160 ship coming over the horizon. There you go. 0:15:44.880 --> 0:15:47.720 You know, Christopher Columbus is supposed to have done that 0:15:47.800 --> 0:15:50.560 where the ship disappears yet doesn't fall off the Earth. 0:15:50.840 --> 0:15:54.120 It's really an amazing thing, you guys, that ocean and 0:15:54.200 --> 0:15:56.960 the air are held on the Earth by gravity. 0:15:57.560 --> 0:15:59.960 Do do do do do do do? 0:16:00.640 --> 0:16:05.080 And still really no one knows exactly where gravity comes from. 0:16:05.200 --> 0:16:07.320 Yeah, because like what would happen if it just stopped 0:16:07.320 --> 0:16:12.400 one day, like drift into space. No, but I mean 0:16:12.440 --> 0:16:15.600 there's something to that. Yeah, it is what happened. 0:16:15.960 --> 0:16:19.880 So there's another question that everybody has asked. And I 0:16:20.000 --> 0:16:22.760 tell you, if you meet somebody who hasn't asked this question, 0:16:22.840 --> 0:16:26.240 they're lying to your face. There's no such thing as 0:16:26.360 --> 0:16:33.120 time because now is already in the past, and so 0:16:33.360 --> 0:16:35.840 like now, if I say now, well, then that's what 0:16:36.000 --> 0:16:36.600 that's was. 0:16:36.880 --> 0:16:39.040 It sounds like this dealership smokes a lot of weed. 0:16:39.720 --> 0:16:42.200 Well, it's a question that everybody is asked. 0:16:42.440 --> 0:16:46.080 Do you believe in like the the universal sync thing where, 0:16:46.120 --> 0:16:48.440 like you know, now, is the past passes the future, 0:16:48.440 --> 0:16:51.240 everything's all in one line linear time? Or is time? 0:16:51.480 --> 0:16:55.520 Actually well, so far, you guys, time seems to only 0:16:55.560 --> 0:16:59.600 be going one way. Uh, for us, you can't go 0:16:59.720 --> 0:17:02.920 back as far as anybody can tell. Yeah, there is 0:17:03.000 --> 0:17:08.400 a theory, and by that I mean a physics theory 0:17:08.440 --> 0:17:11.840 that you could build a time machine that would enable 0:17:11.920 --> 0:17:15.160 you to go back, but you couldn't go back any 0:17:15.240 --> 0:17:18.159 farther than when the time machine was built. Do you 0:17:18.200 --> 0:17:18.600 follow me? 0:17:18.800 --> 0:17:19.159 Yeah? 0:17:19.400 --> 0:17:22.320 Yeah, but still even that hasn't been shown to be true. 0:17:22.320 --> 0:17:24.440 Why wouldn't be able to go back further? Well, I 0:17:24.600 --> 0:17:27.480 don't know that much more of the creation the time machine. 0:17:27.560 --> 0:17:29.000 If you could go back to a moment in your 0:17:29.040 --> 0:17:32.800 career that would predate this supposed time machine, what would 0:17:32.840 --> 0:17:33.000 it be. 0:17:33.440 --> 0:17:37.520 Wow, Well, they'd probably involve certain women and so on. 0:17:38.960 --> 0:17:43.119 That makes sense, but wish certain woman. Yeah, it's a 0:17:43.160 --> 0:17:45.520 tough one and I know you guys have dealt with 0:17:45.560 --> 0:17:50.159 that your whole careers and so so a moment in 0:17:50.240 --> 0:17:54.560 my career, Yeah, maybe, seriously, I would have maybe left 0:17:54.600 --> 0:17:59.320 Seattle sooner. Seattle saved my life. I love Seattle. I'd 0:17:59.359 --> 0:18:01.639 love to go back Seattle, visit my friends and stuff. 0:18:02.280 --> 0:18:06.959 But there's a period there where I was really trying 0:18:06.960 --> 0:18:10.880 to get on with the next thing. And maybe that's 0:18:11.480 --> 0:18:13.440 you can't go back people, it's not an option. 0:18:13.800 --> 0:18:17.399 That's the learn and who we probably would be sitting 0:18:17.440 --> 0:18:21.760 with Steve Guy, the science guy. Yeah, well Steve Guy, 0:18:22.119 --> 0:18:23.800 Steve Steve Martin, and Steve. 0:18:27.359 --> 0:18:30.840 Steve Martin embraces science, you know, he did that whole Yeah, 0:18:31.440 --> 0:18:34.280 it's just I love that his documentary is really fantastic. 0:18:34.320 --> 0:18:35.600 I love that documentary. 0:18:36.119 --> 0:18:38.399 That So I have some questions from some people that 0:18:38.440 --> 0:18:40.800 would love to ask them, and I'm going to ask 0:18:40.840 --> 0:18:43.280 them for them. So this is mark AI is becoming 0:18:43.320 --> 0:18:46.080 such a huge part of everyday life, ironic. Is there 0:18:46.080 --> 0:18:49.000 anything that excites you about it? Or should we all 0:18:49.080 --> 0:18:50.800 just be genuinely be worried. 0:18:51.680 --> 0:18:57.040 Two things genuinely excite me about artificial intelligence. So the 0:18:57.040 --> 0:19:00.840 first thing, artificial diligence RUSH circles greet me. It's going 0:19:00.920 --> 0:19:03.199 to write my term paper and they're going to realize 0:19:03.240 --> 0:19:05.359 I didn't write it. By Okay, that's all good, that 0:19:05.440 --> 0:19:08.320 all sounds great. Yeah, but tell me shirt, I don't 0:19:08.320 --> 0:19:12.240 mean to trivialize it. That's really important where people can't 0:19:12.240 --> 0:19:15.960 think for themselves and so on. But two specific things 0:19:15.960 --> 0:19:20.160 I'm very excited about. The first one is agriculture. When 0:19:20.200 --> 0:19:24.399 I went to the World's Fair in nineteen sixty five 0:19:24.960 --> 0:19:26.800 in New York, New York, the town's so nice they 0:19:26.880 --> 0:19:30.639 named it twice. There were three billion people in the world. 0:19:30.800 --> 0:19:34.520 They had a United Nations had a total board, Total 0:19:34.560 --> 0:19:38.920 Board scoreboard. Now there are almost nine there's eight and 0:19:38.960 --> 0:19:43.119 a half billion people, and we're feeding them somehow. But 0:19:43.240 --> 0:19:48.440 I believe we could make more efficient farm crops and 0:19:48.600 --> 0:19:52.880 more efficient grains, more efficient. Everybody loves corn, but more 0:19:52.920 --> 0:19:57.400 efficient crops, and we would make them drought tolerant, flood tolerant, 0:19:57.800 --> 0:19:59.280 even weather tolerant. 0:19:58.920 --> 0:20:00.720 Where they don't blow over windstorms. 0:20:00.800 --> 0:20:05.360 Right, And we would do that by using artificial intelligence 0:20:05.400 --> 0:20:11.760 to make a genome of a crop of sway that 0:20:11.840 --> 0:20:14.359 would be more robust than what we have now and 0:20:14.440 --> 0:20:15.280 feed more people. 0:20:15.320 --> 0:20:17.080 Would we grow it on Earth? Yeah, because we're run 0:20:17.160 --> 0:20:18.960 out of space, so like, how do we how do 0:20:18.960 --> 0:20:20.760 we have growing stuff in space? 0:20:20.840 --> 0:20:24.479 Is a hassle. Earth is great, And I remind people 0:20:25.240 --> 0:20:29.240 farming is not natural. If you stop farming, it goes 0:20:29.280 --> 0:20:33.359 back to some other thing. So just accept that we 0:20:33.400 --> 0:20:36.080 are running the show here on Earth. Is not a gig. 0:20:36.160 --> 0:20:39.960 We audition for we are in charge of the Earth. 0:20:40.080 --> 0:20:42.399 Humans are running it. We have to make good decisions 0:20:42.400 --> 0:20:45.680 about the Earth. Everybody vote, don't make me come over there. 0:20:46.080 --> 0:20:47.960 And if you're too young to vote, make sure the 0:20:48.000 --> 0:20:51.040 grown ups in your life vote and have insist that 0:20:51.040 --> 0:20:53.080 they vote with the climate of mind. That's the first thing. 0:20:53.160 --> 0:20:55.960 Second thing, everybody, what are we doing. We're on an 0:20:55.960 --> 0:21:00.000 electric podcast. We all have electric phones. I came here 0:21:00.080 --> 0:21:05.360 an electric car. Electricity is the key to our future 0:21:06.080 --> 0:21:10.800 is having energy for everyone. If we had unlimited electricity, 0:21:10.920 --> 0:21:16.320 we could change the world and so you're in your 0:21:16.800 --> 0:21:20.600 lifetime of your kids. We are almost certainly going to 0:21:20.800 --> 0:21:25.840 harness fusion. There are so many organizations working. 0:21:25.520 --> 0:21:27.240
