nowadays we do not see the world as it is
we saw it before through the
human history
our songs our prayers
our rituals have always celebrated
the fact that we are deeply
rooted in the natural world that
we depend on him
we have not stopped saying that we have
the responsibility to act
correctly so that nature
always remain the same of genres
there is abundant we understood that the
nature
everything is interconnected everything
we do carry consequences and so
we both have a series of
responsibilities but in the world
current
that sense of responsibility has
remained pulverized
Music
today
fragmentation when we pulverize the
Variables
we stop perceiving the subtle
interconnection between all the
things I think we suffer from a lack of
location we no longer feel at home in
no side we no longer feel that we form
part of the wider community to the
that the destiny our biophilia is
say our need to associate
with other species to be part of
a community of species
we have lost that sense if I
will ask what is the most
harmful to the disappearance of these
connections:
I would say it's the relocation I think
it is something that makes us suffer spiritual and
psychologically
Music
the media share
a tremendous responsibility of the
pulverization of our and not just the
television or newspapers too
internet and cable television is
the so-called super highway of the
information although I prefer to call it
in super bluff of information
because the motorcycle is not being sold
that this is the best thing that we could
to pass is the bridge to the future and
other minds when in fact not
we get all that information in
little fragments we do not care anymore
the concept that explains why one thing
the story that explains
why this has happened or the other is
What we can do to avoid it
only teams of violence come in
Bosnia or a storm in Pakistan or a
earthquake in guatemala and when we finished
to see the news we have the brain
converted into sideburns

super-species in the 3.8 billion
years that have passed since there are
life on this planet there has not been a
single species of plant or animal that
was able to alter the features
biological or physical
planet on a geological scale
today there is a species that has acquired that
capacity and we are we are
altering the physical features of
Planeta.
I think it's the result of the
conjunction of four phases garros
the first one is numeric
we have become the mammal
most dominant on this planet
but also in the last ten years
we have acquired very technologies
powerful
from computers to plastic
from space travel to the
organ transplants things that have
become part of our lives
in the last hundred years
all those technologies that we use in
our benefit implies that each one
from us financial a lot impact
greatest on earth
so we have the numerical factor and
our power technology and the flat
to that we must add the fact that the
of 20 years to this part
we suffer a terrible urge to buy
things.

we have become nipper
consumers we have to have every time
more things and everything has to be every time
bigger and all that and in heaven

the first time I talked to people
of primitive societies
I was shocked by the way they
refer to nature as a
mother told me that they were made of
the four sacred elements woman's the
earth the air fire and water ni
action just a few cycles of these
beliefs were in the public domain
we are made of the things we eat
and the water that we drink and naturally
the experiences that we live
those are the elements from which
we are made
when reflecting on this I realized
that we are raising the wrong
environmental problem does not exist
first environment by which then
we interact we are the medium
environment because we are the earth and we are
facts of the four sacred elements
earth fire air and water and this is not what
I say in a metaphorical sense or I say
in a scientific and rigorous sense
report this revelation supposed a
radical change in my way of facing
the problems we face
the way we live on this planet
Music
what I want to say is that we are air
you can not literally trace a
line and say here just the air and
I start myself because air is inside
we have it stuck and distributed
All over the body
when we breathe we do not expel everything was
and half more or less remain
our lungs while the rest sanz
and mixes quickly with the air from
fourth and return to our nostrils
we are all united not only between
us but also with the birds
the trees the worms and the
snakes
we are all locked in the same
air matrix
twelve years harlow shaklee an astronaut
american imagine a fabulous exercise
it consists of following a breath of air
to see what's in it if and how
they get they are well well juan going through
hundred of the air is composed of
Aragon an inert gas that does not react
chemically with no other element
when we breathe it in between our
body and when we explain strike
except it's easy to keep track
now how many atoms of aragon
there is in a breath of air and the
answer is a 3 followed by 18 zeros
that's a lot of album whiff of
air contains protection 2 million
atoms of arga if the door were opened
all that something would not use vancouver in the
British Columbia and I would go around
to the world but if we go back to this
room within a year
puff of air with I would have 15 atoms
long they have breathed a year ago they
Applies the ass that each mouthful of air
that we breathe contain millions of
Aragon atoms that were a
day in the body of Joan of Arc or of
Jesus Christ that every breath of air
contains argon atoms that
they were in the body of some
dinosaur 65 million years ago
back and that air we breathe
continue to breathe being a way of life
to another as far as we can imagine the
future
so air is a substance in
wonderful that gives us life and we
connect all other creatures
living and both the past and the
future

water
Music
basically 70% of our weight is
water
we are big puddles of water with the
enough organic thickener to
do not spill us on the ground but our
body does not stop dribbling vote to the skin
the eyes the mouth
we do not stop losing water and what
amazing is that our body knows it
we do not have a counter that tells us
the level of water that we carry inside
but our body is always
pending when we have is because
our body tells us that we are going
scarce water and when we go to the room
of bathroom is because we are too
you fill your body does not stop controlling your
water level
Music
one of the first things I learned
in school is the water cycle
water covers 70% of the planet and
evaporates form clouds soaks the earth
rivers and lakes accumulate and returns to
Falling in love
we call it the hydrological cycle
the water is a connector just like the air
the water connects us to all we are water and
that water comes from everywhere
So what we do with the water
we are doing it to ourselves
Music
land
children usually refer to the earth
as a somewhat dirty goal something
unpleasant until the word earth that
is the correct term to designate the
fine surface layer of the planet that
keeps us alive has connotations
negative the earthly is opposed to what
heavenly one of the greatest gifts that
my mother made me was that when I left
in the spring and it soaked me and filled me
of mud collecting frog eggs and
* # * # * # Salamander
he never scolded me backwards he was glad
Seeing me come back home with a jar
eggs and he loved it has always
grateful is to me never scared us
sink into the earth and the mud
put losses
the piece is what keeps us alive
it is always said that the atmosphere is very
thin but on earth it is still
plus
It is a very thin layer
Music
we are earth we are legs literally
because most of the food that
we eat grows on the earth we get
the food in the mouth full we tear
and we were the molecules that we
interest to turn them into part of
what we are and we are earth because
we are made of the molecules of the
plants and animals that has absorbed the
land and we make them part of
our body
Music
Fire!
Music
they are also the games because every
particle of energy that makes us
grow or move and reproduce all
that chemical energy that we store in
our body started being sunlight
the plants have found a way to
capture the energy of sunlight to
through what we call photosynthesis
to convert it into chemical energy sa
in the same way that we
we store the sugar and when we win
in shock we release their energy and the
used as carnivores we eat other
animals and how herbivores we eat
plants that enclose light alone and this
we assimilate it, so we are
fire literally speaking
The interesting thing is that each
small fire that we light in the
land and asia that bottle finished the
gasoline is sunlight caught by the
plants and stored in fuels
fossils or in the trees that is the
showed was in the mob that we collect
every track of energy that we used was
initially sunlight
we are fire

imagine that some scientists
invent a samos machine a button
and each pump
we retreated 4 billion years
we can see what the
planet back then
so we open the hatch we go out and
in less than two minutes we are dead
why because the idea was totally
toxic that was charged with dioxide
of carbon that did not contain oxygen
we had to wait for life to emerge
and invented photosynthesis so that
the plants will eliminate the dioxide
carbon and released oxygen and
over millions of years converted into
the air in something that the animals
they could breathe but all that
We knew before going on the trip
so it would be enough to take the
air cylinders that we would have below
of the seat to put us on the
helmet activate the air and salt and after
some hours
I guess you would not go be now
well where would we find water with
aspect of being drinkable how to get
drinking water the water falls to the ground where
is filtered by the earth
the fungi the roots of plants the
bacteria and other microorganisms
eliminate toxic materials to
that we can see it before it existed
life on earth
you had to be very careful with
what was owed because there was nothing
it will filter the water that also does not
we would have planned so under
our seat we would also find
a bottle of water
we could attach them by helmets to and
drink the water but after a few hours
you would not go hungry where
we will find something to take us to the
mouth in a lifeless world of all
nutrients that we need to form
our body were one day a being
I live plant or animal before I
life emerged there was nothing that
eat
and how we had counted on that
we would travel with a lot of food and
even with some seeds for
plant maybe a lettuce radishes
but where will we find land for
planting that seed on earth is
made from the remains of living beings that
they died and donated their molecules to that
dust matrix 100 and gravel and the fit
the land where we plant what we eat
after product of life and
finally when the sun went down and
we told them we would be more comfortable
if we understood an operation where
we would find something to burn
four billion years
all our fuel is product of
life so we would have brought
wood a few twigs to learn the
tongue and paper we would take a match
we would understand and nothing would happen to
have a flame oxygen is needed
but before there were plants there
there was oxygen before it emerged
life there was no fire in any
corner of the planet
with this I mean that the cobweb
of living beings biodiversity is
what has created the elements that
we need to survive

NEEDS
Music
thousand we are animals we are creatures
biological and that dictates our
real needs
we need clean air clean water and
clean earth that feeds us
clean science that comes from the sun
so we would all die
but we have escaped from that average what
true is that we do not like that we
remember that we are creatures
biological
if we tell someone on another day in
the party of behaving like an animal
we are insulting if we tell
someone is a chicken a snake
they use a smoke pig we are not insulting
we believe ourselves to be different and superior to
commonly.
once in a shopping center a
sign that prayed not allowed
animals
if all the clients by biologists and you
they took it literally
no one would be in the legs
we are animals and that dictate our
real needs but we are something else
that mere geological animals too
we are social animals and like animals
We have social needs that do not
being satisfied prevents us from living
fully
reading scientific essays given me
mind that to be fully
humans to lead a full life
we have to satisfy an important
social need
love and I say this in a sense
literal scientfi
let's look at the testimonies of children
that have grown up under terror in
cambodia or for rent during that
terrible genocide
in bosnia or in romania we find
children who have food clothing and roof
said but those who had never caught
in their arms that nobody has
said that he wanted all of those
children are mutilated
psychologically and even physically
since they die before children
raised with love is a process
reciprocal between us and the person
what you want is a reciprocal process of
want and be loved with him we learn
to emphasize to worry about the
others to be fully human
Music
- we are more than just creatures
biological or social animals also
we are spiritual beings and this is something
that many scientists refuse
recognize
I believe that there is no doubt that today in
day we have spiritual needs
the dilemma we face is that
We have taken a very strong position
dominant
we carry the weight of the world on
our shoulders
Music
we have to be much more aware
of our spiritual dimension and
our connection with nature
we have to realize that we have
emerged from the natural world that
we remain rooted in him and when
let us be aware of the terrible fact
that we are mortal should not
console to think that one day we will return to
the nature that gave us life
we have to realize that the
world is made of places that are not
only opportunities or raw materials or
resources but they are sacred places
we have to realize that and
understand that there are special places to
those that we have to go and with respect

ECONOMY
of a time to this part all the
political columnists tell us one and
again as if it were a mantra that the
the last word has the economy
that the economy is the source of all
the important things
we have to sacrifice the name of the
ECONOMY
we have to give up certain
social benefits on behalf of the
economy the economy has been with
meanings converted into a kind
of autonomous entity
it's like going back to middle age when
they sacrificed virgins to placate
the dragons now is the economy
as soon as the economy has a problem
we all start to tremble and when we
expands what we celebrate we all have
convinced that it is the source of all
the important things
I think we are leaving aside one
much more fundamental reality
Music
if we talk to an economist and
we ask what is the
economy will teach us a graph and
will tell us this is the economy is
Awesome

you have to extract process to manufacture

kind of arrows on the islands and the idea
underlying is that we do know what
they are the components of the economy
we can fix the de-taxing
he was recording that and so
keep everything afloat but if
we asked in what part of the diagram
are the ozone layer or the aquifers
underground fossil water or what happens
with the top layer of the earth or the
biodiversity
we know what the answer will be
they are externalities an externality is
something that does not fit into the equation

constanza and a team of economists
ecologists set out to calculate
how much it would cost us to supply and all the
services that nature is not free
for example if we wanted to debug the
water so as not to depend on forests
filter our basins how much we
it would cost to build a plant
purifier and there are many things that under
No concept could we do how
replace pollinating insects
but let's estimate what
it would cost to elaborate the technology
necessary to eliminate dioxide
carbon and replace it with

the result reached by constanza is
that we would like 33 million
dollars a year to do what the
nature you free

growth
Music
this is our home on the planet where
the holidays and to which we belong
if we believe that we can expand
indefinitely destroy this planet
go somewhere else what does that say about
our dangerous species of the imperative
according to which we have to get a
constant growth indefinitely is
that leads us down a suicidal path what
illustrate with a very simple example
imagine a test tube that represents
the earth full of food for bacteria
I'm going to introduce a bacterial cell
and every minute that passes will be divided
in two at the beginning there is a cell to
out of a minute two
at 2 minutes 4 at 48 this is called
exponential growth after 60
minutes in the test tube will be
completely overcrowded with bacteria
Quini trace of meals at what minute
the test tube will be half full
at 59 so at 58 it will be at 25
percent at 55 minutes of this
cycle of 60 will be filled by 3% and a
of the bacteria said in the 55th minute
I think we have a problem with
overpopulation the others would say what
you are talking
We have been in the area for fifty-five minutes
this province and we still have 97
percent of space but actually
they would have five minutes to fill
so at 59 minutes they say my god
we have one minute left and we are
finishing the meal so that they invest
in genetic engineering biotechnologies
and computer science to create three test tubes
full of food are saved have
quadrupled the amount of food and
space and now that in the 60th minute the
first test tube be yesterday in 61
it reaches the second and in 62
the four will be full
so quadrupling the amount of
food and space will only have bought
an extension of two minutes when the
biosphere be in trouble there will be no mega
scientific project for ambitious that
is that I can increase the amount of
air and water and most of the
Biologists believe that it's been a while since
spent the 59 minute sell if this is
so how can we live each
more time that we are healthier
that we own more things and have a
strong economy like we've arrived
at minute 59
The truth is that we live in a
abundance and user we are actually
exhausting our lands and emptying
our oceans our jungles are
disappearing the atmosphere is
Changing
we are surrounded by alarm signals
those who continue to affirm that we should
maintain steady growth are
contributing to plunder more and more the
legacy of our children
value
in my opinion the main problem of
the economy is that it does not recognize any
value to things that seem to me
important to me I will explain it to
read I live in a privileged area of
vancouver near the beach that chile
and a few years ago I got a letter from
a real estate agent who said that
I was getting to Vancouver a lot of money
coming from asia and that now better
time to sell my house and cover myself
how much I irritate that house is not only
a final is my home
so I thought of agreeing without stopping
be I came to my house
what would you say are the
characteristics that make it special
I bought this house 25 years ago when
my wife was still doing her
postgraduate studies in united states
and when it came it fixed it put me some
wardrove
I value that very much
my father was a cabinetmaker and when we bought
the house made many of our
furniture
that also value is furniture
homemade but for me it's worth a lot because
my father made them
we have a dogwood in the garden
our children turned him into a
cemetery and there we buried
snakes birds and our dog
passion when he died
that also value it when my best
friend jim morris came to vancouver me
helped build the fence made a
wooden handle that is still in its
Site
every time I open that, I remember
jean my best friend
my in-laws live on the top floor
they are gardening enthusiasts and they know
that I love the asparagus and
raspberries
so they have planted asparagus and
raspberries that also included it in
La Lista
when my mother died, we put their
ashes in the cremà of the fault
every year when the cream of flowers is
as if my mother was with me
while making that list I realized
that those details were the ones
they made the house my home and
things that make it priceless and
however in the market they do not have
no value
there is something weird in an economic system
that only values what for
we have less importance than
other more trivial things
that is the problem of the whole system of
values that our economy implies
of hope
they often ask me how do I do
get ahead after counting those
such depressing things
the answer is that I have a debt with
the future
nobody asked my children if they wanted
do they have filled me with joy and
pride and I have a colossal debt with
-The?
now also commandments I have a
great responsibility for the future
