Generally I'm very skeptical about titles like these thinking that there's some sort of misinformation or whitewashing done to continue to push fossil fuels.

However, this guy is incredible and one of my favorite YouTubers of all time. He can make almost anything interesting. His level of being researched, educated, and thorough is almost unmatched. Thanks for sharing, OP.

So if all we did was decide to stop growing corn to turn into ethanol, and we used only that land for generating only solar power, we'd be able to generate 84% more electricity on an annual basis than we do today from all of our energy sources.

Damn. Factorio lied to me about the space efficiency of solar panels.

This episode is fucking amazing and so cathartic.

The second ending is the best part for me. So nice to see him bring up the point about the Declaration of Independence as it was something I was thinking about recently as well.

As a European, I almost felt American after watching this speech. It was a good speech.

Like watching a down to earth relative or friend you have known your whole life, suddenly get angry. Did not see it coming. A+ tier video. Gave me goosebumps and prob about 15% more moisture in my eyes during the last part

Having not seen the video yet, it's wild that these two topics are related.
