Good to see you two. How are you faring in this pandemic time. A little cabin fever, i must admit, im eager to get back to traveling again, i was getting sick of it before the pandemic and im eager to get out of california. How are you . Pretty good were all doing what we can to get through it. Even the movie contagion which said was going to happen Something Like this but it did not capture the full scope of what is unfolding, a gift to my first question about the book which is apocalypse never, very definitive statement unless surgeon wants and i missed, it implies certainty and worlds of interlaced, i describe her Current Situation as tripwires and landmines that are complex and largely unpredictable in the system. So are you confident when you say apocalypse never. Thank you andy, the argument of the book is that Climate Change is real but its not the end of the world and not the most serious environmental problem, ive been a climate activist for 20 years environmental for 30, i se
Magazine what we see is the economist saying free money when Government Spending news no limits of course the big calling and Gold Community saw 1st by coming up with that mean money print to go broke and of course they saw it the mean was powerful and that unleashed the crack and in big point it unleashed a crack in solver it unleashed a crack in in gold but only if the crack and over at the you know the. President. Was just rather sure. Also. What do you. Yes its free money and the Economist Says quenching out that this could be something to be worried about d and it of course because why its so worrying is that its the psychology once the mind changes once the mind expects that this is the way things can be Going Forward that we dont need to work we dont need to go to labor and and spend 10 hours a day away from our family we could just say at home and speculate via you know various online trading apps and so that mindset is setting in and can we ever step back from that can we step
That we are looking at, much like we did yesterday where we were talking a great deal about the possibility of a new record even intraday or all time on the s p. Yesterday it was that bizarre russian vaccine news and i think we can all term it bizarre, but today its moderna signing a deal with the u. S. Government which is signing a lot of deals to make sure that there is manufacturing capacity in place to deliver a lot of doses of a vaccine if and when it does get through phase three trials into i was listening to meg tirrell this morning and i was looking at an email how much is regeneron getting. 500 million in july i would say, david, is there any amount that you wouldnt spend on these companies to get this thing beaten because if were spending 2 trillion to just try to stay in place we have got to flood the market with money. Make it so its worth wise for everybody. I have emerging bio tonight, they would be helping making a lot of these giant doses and i dont think i think that y
It didnt capture the full scope. To my first question in the buck which is apocalypse never, it is a very definitive statement that it implies certainty. I describe the Current Situation as landmines that are complex and largely unpredictable. Are you confident when you say apocalypse never . Guest well, thanks, andy. The argument is that Climate Change is real but its not the individual and it isnt the most serious environmental problem. In the extremism and exaggeration that the warnings of the pandemic were pricey and including coming from the coronavirus and hygiene and small farmers. So not to say that its impossible, but to say lets get our understanding of fixed rate. One of the most shocking things people dont know and i think this is where the news media deserves a lot of blame for this, as for the natural disasters over the last 100 years, they declined 80 to 90 over the last 40 years. There is no scenario in the report, and ive now written them all, for the number to reverse
I must admit. Im eager to get back to traveling again i was sick of it before the pandemic and now i cant get out of california. How are you quick. Pretty good were all doing what we can but even that contagion it really didnt capture the full scope. My first question about the book is apocalypse never its a very definitive statement and it implies a certainty in the world that is interlaced and that is largely unpredictable that complex systems are you confident apocalypse never and of course that depends on your definition of apocalypse. Yes. Thank you i argue in the book its not the end of the world even not the most serious environmental problem environmental activist as for 30 years what im trying to do here is like a cancer doctor a bunch of people say everybody will die of cancer in ten years and then say wait a second i dont like to see that level of exaggeration or extremism or alarmism are there scenarios you can imagine Climate Change destroying human civilization . Sure. Th
