There are already 5.5 billion mobiles in the world.

The desert was advancing by a mile or two a year.

They are the backbone of our life.

So let's project this analogy going forward.

leaving lower quality coal that is less energy dense.

And so that is my story.

Sometimes it can even completely obstruct the blood vessel.

GLOBAL MlLITARY EXPENDlTURE RlSES EVERY YEAR, NOW OVER 2 TRlLLlON

America's massive Ogallala aquifer has fallen so low that many farmers have had to return to less productive dry land farming.

Do we have a contingency plan if we run out of tylium? We would...

It's ideas, it's innovation, it's technology that will end the age of oil, long before we run out of oil.

So basically the whole process of destruction had gone a bit slower than what is happening now with the oil palm.

But if we have no connection whatsoever with the worlds beyond the one we take for granted, then we too run the risk of drying up inside.

We did a mass energy balance if they use brick, they will lose all their soil and burn all their coal.

So 16 years later, not only have we run out of IPv4 address space but we're also now absolutely compelled to implement the new one so we can continue to grow the network.

And it's destined to collapse for many reasons kind of Malthusian reasons that you run out of resources.

I'm always thirsty.

The issues of energy shortages, resource depletion, topsoil loss, and pollution are all symptoms of a single, larger problem

He's thirsty.

Don't you crave a little?

He used the example of a common grazing area in which each person by simply maximizing their own flock

It was dead.

And then once there's enough of these and the cell has essentially all of its resources have been depleted, the viruses, these individual new viruses that have replicated themselves using all of the cell's mechanisms, will find some way to exit the cell.

I mean, surely with wind and solar and nuclear we could use all of this and the depletion of oil really isn't a problem?

Stop it.

I'm thirsty.

When we run out of water, as we are in some parts of the world and soon to be in other parts of the world, we're going to have to get this from the sea, and that's going to require us to build desalination plants.

Aren't you thirsty?

So a word without its source is like a cut flower.

Our breadbasket is threatened today, not because of diminishing supply, but because of diminishing resources.

You know, it's pretty to look at for a while, but then it dies.

The eagle does not catch flies.

The flowers in his garden have withered.

Aren't you thirsty?

I'm dying of thirst.

But I'm not thirsty.

Are you thirsty?

The bloom is certainly fucking off the rose at this point.

Over in California at the Post Carbon Institute, there is a man who has advised business, industry and governments on how to cope with oil depletion.

And it declined very fast a classic boom and bust fishery, which suggests that a stock has been depleted or there's low reproductive rates.

Because of course all of that import has to come by way of fossil fuelled vehicles of one kind or another, whether it's ships or airplanes.

They look thirsty.

It's dead!

A hot day, huh? Funny, when I'm thirsty it's all I can think about.

I'm thirsty.
