00:00Tell me of your dreams.
00:01If you consume 10 units of something today, your dream is to consume at least 100 units
00:06tomorrow.
00:07Because that's what means progress and happiness to you, right?
00:09Do you see that definition of success is what has become the climate crisis?
00:13So it's our dreams that have become the curse of this planet.
00:17Unfortunately, we live for our dreams.
00:19Unfortunately, we are produced to fulfill dreams.
00:22If you do not live by these dreams, even your society and your family will not spare you.
00:27You tell them that if I do all these things, I'm really, literally destroying the earth.
00:33Still they would not listen.
00:34They'll say, no, no, no.
00:35But you should.
00:36And anyway, what can you do by fighting as a lone wolf, a solitary warrior?
00:40Even if you do not consume, even if you do not proliferate, still everybody else is doing
00:44the same thing.
00:45See your cousin Dhanno, she just gave birth to her fourth one.
00:48You can at least have three.
00:49That's what is killing the planet.
00:51And any numbers of summits or conferences or declarations or agreements are not going
00:56to help.
00:57All that is simply eye wash.
00:58We are fooling ourselves.
