178
00:08:30,333 --> 00:08:32,633
when millions of people
are moving off of farms,
179
00:08:32,633 --> 00:08:35,700
and we have to get them ready
to kind of work in factories.
180
00:08:35,700 --> 00:08:39,533
Now, here we are
really at the beginning
of the 21st century.
181
00:08:39,533 --> 00:08:43,200
What does it look like
if we want to do
it differently?
182
00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:46,233
Yeah. So what I love to do
when people ask me
183
00:08:46,233 --> 00:08:48,200
that is take
a step back and apply
184
00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:49,666
first principles thinking.
185
00:08:49,666 --> 00:08:51,766
So imagine our education
system didn't exist
186
00:08:51,766 --> 00:08:53,366
and we weren't
tinkering with it,
187
00:08:53,366 --> 00:08:54,833
we weren't building
on top of it.
188
00:08:54,833 --> 00:08:56,400
-We just kind of set it aside...
-Yep.
189
00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:58,366
and we got to design
something from scratch
190
00:08:58,366 --> 00:08:59,533
for today's world.
191
00:08:59,533 --> 00:09:01,266
What would we
teach young minds?
192
00:09:01,266 --> 00:09:02,633
How would we teach it?
193
00:09:02,633 --> 00:09:04,400
And why would we
teach those things?
194
00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:07,100
For my team and I, we think
that the purpose of education
195
00:09:07,100 --> 00:09:09,466
should be to help
humanity flourish.
196
00:09:09,466 --> 00:09:10,766
And that can mean different
things to different people,
197
00:09:10,766 --> 00:09:12,233

contributing
198
00:09:12,233 --> 00:09:14,633

to improve this

is to improve
the education system

There's a history of

For most of human history,
the idea of the future
274
00:12:19,700 --> 00:12:22,433
is one that was
essentially determined--

the system to figure out
350
00:15:43,133 --> 00:15:45,400
how we can do our job
even better.
351
00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:47,300
What exactly is coral?
352
00:15:47,300 --> 00:15:49,366
A lot of people think
it's a colorful rock.
353
00:15:49,366 --> 00:15:51,533
In fact, it's an animal
354
00:15:51,533 --> 00:15:53,300
that has plants
living inside of it.
355
00:15:53,300 --> 00:15:55,800
It's an ancient distant
cousin of a jellyfish.
356
00:15:55,800 --> 00:15:58,266
Within its sort of
tissue skin layer,
357
00:15:58,266 --> 00:16:01,133
it has this symbiotic algae
that lives inside of it.
358
00:16:01,133 --> 00:16:02,666
It's what gives corals
their color,
359
00:16:02,666 --> 00:16:03,600
and also through photosynthesis
360
00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:05,266
is what feeds the corals
361
00:16:05,266 --> 00:16:06,500
for the most part.
362
00:16:06,500 --> 00:16:07,633
And then as the corals grow,
363
00:16:07,633 --> 00:16:08,700
they make limestone rock
364
00:16:08,700 --> 00:16:10,300
for their skeleton.
365
00:16:10,300 --> 00:16:11,666
They really create
the habitat,
366
00:16:11,666 --> 00:16:14,166
the nurseries for fish,
for shrimp,
367
00:16:14,166 --> 00:16:16,766
for all sorts
of sea life and wildlife.
368
00:16:16,766 --> 00:16:20,533
They're like the skyscrapers
of this underwater world.
369
00:16:20,533 --> 00:16:23,600
Since the 1970s, we've lost
half of the world's
370
00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:25,766
coral reefs,
and we're currently on track
371
00:16:25,766 --> 00:16:28,700
to lose over 90% by 2050.
372
00:16:28,700 --> 00:16:31,633
They support the livelihoods
of up to 1 billion people
373
00:16:31,633 --> 00:16:34,133
in over 100 countries
around the world,
374
00:16:34,133 --> 00:16:37,166
along with sustaining
a quarter of all marine life.
375
00:16:37,166 --> 00:16:39,333
They act like
natural sea walls.
376
00:16:39,333 --> 00:16:42,466
They reduce wave energy
on average by 97%.
377
00:16:42,466 --> 00:16:44,700
So they protect property.
They save lives.
378
00:16:44,700 --> 00:16:46,433
They power tourism economies.
379
00:16:46,433 --> 00:16:48,333
There are entire
fishing communities
380
00:16:48,333 --> 00:16:50,333
that are completely
reliant on these reefs.
381
00:16:50,333 --> 00:16:53,500
So as they die, it's
an ecological tragedy
382
00:16:53,500 --> 00:16:56,366
that impacts all people
everywhere.
383
00:16:56,366 --> 00:16:59,766
We started Coral Vita
in order to create a new model
384
00:16:59,766 --> 00:17:03,066
to scale restoration
globally and so that
385
00:17:03,066 --> 00:17:06,466
there will be future reefs
for generations to come.
386
00:17:06,466 --> 00:17:08,633
So yeah, this is basically
where we grow the corals.
387
00:17:08,633 --> 00:17:11,100
So we set up these tanks.
388
00:17:11,100 --> 00:17:13,300
We're pumping clean
seawater through.
389
00:17:13,300 --> 00:17:17,433
And we work our magic for
6, 12 months on average,
390
00:17:17,433 --> 00:17:19,733
before we then
outplant the corals.
391
00:17:19,733 --> 00:17:22,066
Wallach: So all the coral that
I'm looking at in here
392
00:17:22,066 --> 00:17:24,133
at one point actually
came from the ocean?
393
00:17:24,133 --> 00:17:26,733
Yeah. So this is actually
a good example.
394
00:17:26,733 --> 00:17:28,700
We call this
coral broodstock.
395
00:17:28,700 --> 00:17:30,733
And so this was a piece
396
00:17:30,733 --> 00:17:32,333
of elkhorn coral...
397
00:17:32,333 --> 00:17:34,066
Yeah.
398
00:17:34,066 --> 00:17:35,200
that we've sort of
399
00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:36,366
put onto these plates.
400
00:17:36,366 --> 00:17:37,533
This might have broken off
401
00:17:37,533 --> 00:17:38,666
because of a storm or someone
402
00:17:38,666 --> 00:17:40,333
dropped their anchor.
403
00:17:40,333 --> 00:17:42,066
It was tumbling around the reef.
404
00:17:42,066 --> 00:17:43,200
We collected it,
fragment it
405
00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:45,200
into these
tiny little pieces
406
00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:47,500
that then triggers
the accelerated
growth rates
407
00:17:47,500 --> 00:17:49,766
until it's time to
actually screw this in.
408
00:17:49,766 --> 00:17:52,366
And then the coral
will grow over
and do its thing.
409
00:17:52,366 --> 00:17:54,600
And so this is something that
naturally happens, obviously,
410
00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:57,233
but it takes
a much longer time.
411

Wallach: How does
the steam become
electricity?
524
00:23:39,833 --> 00:23:42,700
So after we have separated
these two different phases,
525
00:23:42,700 --> 00:23:44,200
steam enters a turbine
526
00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:45,833
and rotates pretty fast
the blades.
527
00:23:45,833 --> 00:23:47,566
-Mm-hmm.
-And when I say fast,
528
00:23:47,566 --> 00:23:49,466
I mean 3,000 rotations
per minute.
529
00:23:49,466 --> 00:23:51,100
Wow, yeah.
530
00:23:51,100 --> 00:23:52,400
After that,
this kinetic, like,
531
00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:55,066
mechanical energy is
converted to electrical
532
00:23:55,066 --> 00:23:56,733
in the generator.
533
00:23:56,733 --> 00:23:59,233
And after that, you see all
the power lines over here?
534
00:23:59,233 --> 00:24:01,633
That's where it's getting
sent into the national grid
535
00:24:01,633 --> 00:24:03,266
of the whole country.
536
00:24:05,433 --> 00:24:07,733
Wallach, voice-over:
Historically, geothermal power
537
00:24:07,733 --> 00:24:09,600
has been limited
to areas in the world
538
00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:13,400
with naturally occurring heat
in the earth and groundwater.
539
00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:16,200
But recently, there's been
exciting work to see
540
00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:20,133
what's possible by using
existing oil and gas wells.
541
00:24:20,133 --> 00:24:21,766
Water can be pumped
into the well,
542
00:24:21,766 --> 00:24:23,833
where it is heated by the Earth,
543
00:24:23,833 --> 00:24:26,500
then drawn back
to the surface for power.
544
00:24:26,500 --> 00:24:30,133
That's a huge opportunity,
as the U.S. alone
545
00:24:30,133 --> 00:24:33,466
currently has vast amounts
of abandoned, dry,
546
00:24:33,466 --> 00:24:36,466
or unproductive oil wells
that can be repurposed,
547
00:24:36,466 --> 00:24:40,200
along with the human skillsets
needed for this new work.
548
00:24:41,833 --> 00:24:44,500
Kapatza, voice-over:
So this is actually
a reinjection borehole,
549
00:24:44,500 --> 00:24:49,166
and this is where we reinject
the hot geothermal water
550
00:24:49,166 --> 00:24:52,800
that we have used
back underground.
551
00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:56,100
Wallach, voice-over: Like so
many things, geothermal power
552
00:24:56,100 --> 00:24:58,466
is a big step forward,
but it's not perfect.
553
00:24:58,466 --> 00:25:01,100
There's still
a small amount of CO2
554
00:25:01,100 --> 00:25:03,666
being produced from
the hot water being extracted.
555
00:25:03,666 --> 00:25:06,400
So the team here has
gotten creative about
556
00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:09,200
a way to capture the carbon
resulting from the process
557
00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:11,400
and mineralize it
into a rock substance
558
00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:14,833
that they inject back
into the Earth itself.
559
00:25:14,833 --> 00:25:16,733
Now, at the moment
here in this powerplant,
560
00:25:16,733 --> 00:25:21,833
we are capturing around 12,000
tons per year of this CO2,
561
00:25:21,833 --> 00:25:23,433
and we mineralize it
every year.
562
00:25:23,433 --> 00:25:25,566
Wow.

electricity does Iceland
get from geothermal?

00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:45,333
Everything below that
is the spacecraft bus,
695
00:30:45,333 --> 00:30:48,266
and that's what provides
the power, the heat.
696
00:30:48,266 --> 00:30:50,100
So as the satellite
goes around the planet,
697
00:30:50,100 --> 00:30:52,166
they're always going to
rotate to get maximum sun.
698
00:30:52,166 --> 00:30:53,833
Yep.
699
00:30:53,833 --> 00:30:55,466
That's how we keep
consistent lighting
conditions.
700
00:30:55,466 --> 00:30:57,300
It's called a
sun-synchronous orbit.
701
00:30:57,300 --> 00:30:58,766
But obviously
once it's up there,
702
00:30:58,766 --> 00:31:00,166
we're gonna
want to keep flying it
703
00:31:00,166 --> 00:31:02,066
for as long as possible.
704
00:31:02,066 --> 00:31:03,366
Wallach: So it won't
just be the U.S.
705
00:31:03,366 --> 00:31:04,833
Goldstein: No.
706
00:31:04,833 --> 00:31:06,200
And then what happens
in other countries
707
00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:08,333
that are doing this,
their citizens
708
00:31:08,333 --> 00:31:10,200
and their governments
will be able to also
see this data,
709
00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:11,700
because it's open
and free.
710
00:31:11,700 --> 00:31:13,200
That's absolutely right.
711
00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:15,200
And so with MethaneSAT,
we'll be able to say,
712
00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:16,800
like, what's going
on in Russia,
713
00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:18,300
What's going on
in Turkmenistan,
714
00:31:18,300 --> 00:31:21,233
you know, and other places
where we get energy.
715
00:31:21,233 --> 00:31:23,800
I think a lot about
the world that our kids
716
00:31:23,800 --> 00:31:26,366
are gonna inherit,
the problems that we're seeing
717
00:31:26,366 --> 00:31:28,566
already with
climate impacts.
718
00:31:28,566 --> 00:31:31,800
Methane is the way that we
can really bend that curve
719
00:31:31,800 --> 00:31:33,566
as quickly as possible.
720
00:31:33,566 --> 00:31:35,666
By cutting methane
emissions,
721
00:31:35,666 --> 00:31:38,833
we can slow the rate
of warming by up to 30%.
722
00:31:38,833 --> 00:31:41,533
It's not to say that
carbon dioxide
isn't important.
723
00:31:41,533 --> 00:31:43,566
It's incredibly
important, too.
724
00:31:43,566 --> 00:31:45,400
But we really need
to do both,
725
00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:47,033
and we need to do them
as quickly as possible.
726
00:31:49,233 --> 00:31:50,666
Bratton: One of the ironies
of this moment
727
00:31:50,666 --> 00:31:53,433
is that, in many respects,
728
00:31:53,433 --> 00:31:57,266
we know much more about
how planetary systems work,
729
00:31:57,266 --> 00:32:01,433
how our own bodies work,
where we are astronomically,
730
00:32:01,433 --> 00:32:04,100
than we have known at any
other time in history.
731
00:32:04,100 --> 00:32:07,566
And yet, it seems
as though the ability
732
00:32:07,566 --> 00:32:12,266
of complex societies to
deliberately, comprehensively,
733
00:32:12,266 --> 00:32:14,633
and effectively
compose themselves,
734
00:32:14,633 --> 00:32:19,433
to govern themselves, to make
things work isn't tracking.
735
00:32:19,433 --> 00:32:23,733
There's an irony.
We know more but can do less.
736
00:32:23,733 --> 00:32:25,700
Howe: We haven't taken
a long-term view.
737
00:32:25,700 --> 00:32:27,766
We've completely
ignored the things
738
00:32:27,766 --> 00:32:31,600
that we know, with
a fair degree of certainty
739
00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:35,066
in many cases, are coming
down the track at us.
740
00:32:35,066 --> 00:32:38,266
We work on these very sort
of linear trajectories,
741
00:32:38,266 --> 00:32:40,200
in terms of what we measure.
742
00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:44,766
And all of those things
add up to a system
743
00:32:44,766 --> 00:32:50,433
which has this kind of terrible
pull into the short-term,
744
00:32:50,433 --> 00:32:54,433
and very few incentives
to look to the long-term.
745
00:32:57,333 --> 00:32:59,733
Wallach: One thing we know
is coming towards us--
746
00:32:59,733 --> 00:33:02,466
an unprecedented amount
of human migration
747
00:33:02,466 --> 00:33:05,166
due to the effects of
climate change around the world.
748
00:33:05,166 --> 00:33:08,366
And even though big long-term
challenges like this
749
00:33:08,366 --> 00:33:10,366
have proven difficult
for us to address,
750
00:33:10,366 --> 00:33:13,533
we now have, more than ever,
a chance to rethink
751
00:33:13,533 --> 00:33:16,066
our societies and how
we think about
752
00:33:16,066 --> 00:33:18,200
who gets to be a part of them.
753
00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:20,600
Gaia Vince is
an environmental journalist
754
00:33:20,600 --> 00:33:23,300
who has spent years
arguing that not only are
755
00:33:23,300 --> 00:33:26,166
enormous shifts in
migration already upon us,
756
00:33:26,166 --> 00:33:27,700
but also what
we've been told is
757
00:33:27,700 --> 00:33:31,800
a geopolitical problem could
in fact, if managed well,
758
00:33:31,800 --> 00:33:35,300
be a powerful opportunity.
759
00:33:35,300 --> 00:33:37,666
So you wrote, "The great
upheaval is coming."
760
00:33:37,666 --> 00:33:39,633
What do you mean by that?
761
00:33:39,633 --> 00:33:41,166
You know, the climate that
762
00:33:41,166 --> 00:33:43,466
we experience in our lives,
763
00:33:43,466 --> 00:33:44,600
and which our culture
764
00:33:44,600 --> 00:33:46,200
has been built on,
765
00:33:46,200 --> 00:33:48,400
it's really the fabric
of everything we do.
766
00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:51,266
And so when that changes,
it means everything changes.
767
00:33:51,266 --> 00:33:54,833
We're seeing drought,
wildfires, flood.
768
00:33:54,833 --> 00:33:57,300
And all these events,
they are going
769
00:33:57,300 --> 00:34:01,400
to create unlivable regions
across the planet,
770
00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:03,833
and the conditions
are going to be so extreme
771
00:34:03,833 --> 00:34:06,400
that people are not going
to be able to adapt.
772
00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:07,533
They're going to have to move.
773
00:34:07,533 --> 00:34:09,700
[Crowd yelling]
774
00:34:09,700 --> 00:34:11,533
[Child crying]
775
00:34:11,533 --> 00:34:13,566
So we're going to see
an upheaval in terms
776
00:34:13,566 --> 00:34:15,233
of populations moving.
777
00:34:15,233 --> 00:34:18,133
But at the same time,
everywhere on Earth
778
00:34:18,133 --> 00:34:19,800
is going to have to adapt
to these new conditions,
779
00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:22,066
even if they don't
have to move.
780
00:34:22,066 --> 00:34:23,833
You look at somewhere
like Mumbai,
781
00:34:23,833 --> 00:34:27,666
which is home to
around 30 million people,
possibly more.
782
00:34:27,666 --> 00:34:31,600
At least 9 million of those
live in slum housing.
783
00:34:31,600 --> 00:34:33,766
They will migrate.
They will try to migrate,
784
00:34:33,766 --> 00:34:35,533
because they
will have no choice--
785
00:34:35,533 --> 00:34:39,266
millions,
perhaps billions of people.
786
00:34:39,266 --> 00:34:42,066
Among the many choices we
have, we can put up barriers.
787
00:34:42,066 --> 00:34:45,733
We can send back boats
of people fleeing disaster.
788
00:34:45,733 --> 00:34:49,133
We've seen it doesn't work.
It's very expensive.
789
00:34:49,133 --> 00:34:51,200
So what's--
what's your alternative
790
00:34:51,200 --> 00:34:53,566
to accepting people in?
791
00:34:53,566 --> 00:34:55,166
Is it conflict?
792
00:34:55,166 --> 00:34:57,366
Is it conscripting armies
of young people
793
00:34:57,366 --> 00:34:59,066
to fight these people?
794
00:34:59,066 --> 00:35:00,766
Because, you know,
that's not the future
795
00:35:00,766 --> 00:35:02,566
that I would like to see,
796
00:35:02,566 --> 00:35:05,766
and I don't think
that benefits anyone.
797
00:35:05,766 --> 00:35:07,400
There are places
where we can live,
798
00:35:07,400 --> 00:35:10,766
and there is plenty of room
for all of us,
799
00:35:10,766 --> 00:35:13,066
especially if we get on
with adapting it
800
00:35:13,066 --> 00:35:16,433
and create
the societies we want.
801
00:35:16,433 --> 00:35:19,133
There's this talk of, like,
a clash of civilizations
802
00:35:19,133 --> 00:35:21,500
or a clash of cultures,
803
00:35:21,500 --> 00:35:24,266
this nomadic century
that we're going into.
804
00:35:24,266 --> 00:35:27,166
There's a worry that
these cultures
805
00:35:27,166 --> 00:35:28,833
won't be able to
work together.
806
00:35:28,833 --> 00:35:30,500
They're just
too different.
807
00:35:30,500 --> 00:35:33,333
But--but you see culture
somewhat differently.
808
00:35:33,333 --> 00:35:37,200
Throughout history, the way
that humans have resolved
809
00:35:37,200 --> 00:35:41,400
their problems is through
technological adaptation
810
00:35:41,400 --> 00:35:43,266
and through
social adaptation.
811
00:35:43,266 --> 00:35:44,400
We work together.
812
00:35:44,400 --> 00:35:45,800
We cooperate
to solve problems.
813
00:35:45,800 --> 00:35:48,600
If we don't do that,
history shows us
814
00:35:48,600 --> 00:35:51,800
that leads to loss of life,
economic destruction,
815
00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:56,100
and the loss of entire
civilizations.
816
00:35:56,100 --> 00:35:59,100
But when we do,
brilliant things happen.
817
00:35:59,100 --> 00:36:02,233
So the first thing we
need to do, in my opinion,
818
00:36:02,233 --> 00:36:03,700
is look ahead.
819
00:36:03,700 --> 00:36:07,400
Look ahead at the future
and create that world first
820
00:36:07,400 --> 00:36:10,133
in your mind, because that's
how everything is created.
821
00:36:10,133 --> 00:36:14,633
What does a good
Anthropocene look like?
822
00:36:14,633 --> 00:36:17,800
For me,
it's a place where
823
00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:22,533
nature is restored,
where people have clean air,
824
00:36:22,533 --> 00:36:26,700
clean water, available food.
825
00:36:26,700 --> 00:36:29,466
They have cheap,
abundant energy,
826
00:36:29,466 --> 00:36:33,666
and they have opportunities
for jobs in their city.
827
00:36:33,666 --> 00:36:36,166
But we won't get there
by accident.
828
00:36:36,166 --> 00:36:39,366
We only get there
by identifying
829
00:36:39,366 --> 00:36:42,266
what that vision is that
we've shared and agreed on,
830
00:36:42,266 --> 00:36:44,400
and then what the steps are
to get there.
831
00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:58,433
♪
832
00:36:58,433 --> 00:37:01,233
Wallach, voice-over: I'm in
Delhi, a vibrant city that's
833
00:37:01,233 --> 00:37:04,100
home to more than
32 million people.
834
00:37:04,100 --> 00:37:06,266
I'm here to spend time
with a local architect
835
00:37:06,266 --> 00:37:08,833
named Manas Bhatia,
who has a unique vision
836
00:37:08,833 --> 00:37:11,433
for the future of this city.
837
00:37:11,433 --> 00:37:15,066
He's honest about the very
real challenges Delhi faces,
838
00:37:15,066 --> 00:37:17,233
but that's not stopping him
from imagining
839
00:37:17,233 --> 00:37:18,600
something better.
840
00:37:18,600 --> 00:37:21,166
Using new AI tools
and techniques,
841
00:37:21,166 --> 00:37:23,133
he's working to
completely reimagine
842
00:37:23,133 --> 00:37:25,133
the relationship between nature
843
00:37:25,133 --> 00:37:28,133
and the cities
in which we live.
844
00:37:28,133 --> 00:37:29,400
Wallach: So as I look
at a lot of the work
845
00:37:29,400 --> 00:37:31,566
that you're doing
now using AI,
846
00:37:31,566 --> 00:37:34,633
what fascinates me is
the direction you're taking it.
847
00:37:34,633 --> 00:37:39,366
What about nature do you think
is so important
848
00:37:39,366 --> 00:37:41,333
to the work that you do?
849
00:37:41,333 --> 00:37:45,100
I am from Dehradun,
which is, like, a valley,
850
00:37:45,100 --> 00:37:47,566
and it is close
to the Himalayas.
851
00:37:47,566 --> 00:37:51,466
It's all very green
and very, very beautiful.
852
00:37:51,466 --> 00:37:55,766
So every day I would just
go out by the riverside,
853
00:37:55,766 --> 00:37:58,433
go for a trek
in the hills.
854
00:37:58,433 --> 00:38:00,533
I would just sit there
and with my sketchpad,
855
00:38:00,533 --> 00:38:04,133
and I would observe nature.
856
00:38:04,133 --> 00:38:07,700
I can sort of imagine
spaces in those patterns
857
00:38:07,700 --> 00:38:11,600
and in those,
you know, wilted leaves.
858
00:38:11,600 --> 00:38:13,766
Nature itself is
a big inspiration
859
00:38:13,766 --> 00:38:17,133
for my projects that way.
860
00:38:17,133 --> 00:38:18,833
I think the first time
I moved to Delhi,
861
00:38:18,833 --> 00:38:21,500
I hated the place,
I would say.
862
00:38:21,500 --> 00:38:23,633
It was like
a concrete jungle.
863
00:38:23,633 --> 00:38:27,233
It was difficult
to adjust at first.
864
00:38:27,233 --> 00:38:30,666
Now, the entire idea is,
how can I combine those
865
00:38:30,666 --> 00:38:34,700
two concepts so that
the future of architecture
866
00:38:34,700 --> 00:38:37,366
and the future cities
could be better
867
00:38:37,366 --> 00:38:40,033
than the current concrete
jungles we are living in?
868
00:38:41,466 --> 00:38:43,766
When we are being taught
about architecture,
869
00:38:43,766 --> 00:38:46,500
every design starts
with an idea.
870
00:38:46,500 --> 00:38:50,533
And then the designer turns
to tools like sketchpads,
871
00:38:50,533 --> 00:38:54,233
and, you know, pencils,
and 3D softwares.
872
00:38:54,233 --> 00:38:57,166
There was a tool which was
lacking that could really
873
00:38:57,166 --> 00:39:00,300
help me envisioning
my thoughts quickly,
874
00:39:00,300 --> 00:39:02,666
these visions which
I had as an architect.
875
00:39:02,666 --> 00:39:04,733
Finally, there is a tool
which I can use
876
00:39:04,733 --> 00:39:06,833
to actually express
myself.
877
00:39:06,833 --> 00:39:09,733
Midjourney was something
which could take
878
00:39:09,733 --> 00:39:13,100
the designs
to a next level.
879
00:39:13,100 --> 00:39:14,566
These are some of
the explorations
880
00:39:14,566 --> 00:39:16,766
that I've currently
been doing.
881
00:39:16,766 --> 00:39:19,600
This is one of
my favorite ones.
882
00:39:19,600 --> 00:39:24,533
It's like a pavilion,
which was inspired
from bioluminescence.
883
00:39:24,533 --> 00:39:28,066
There are other
projects, as well.
884
00:39:28,066 --> 00:39:30,500
It took the instructions
from the parameters.
885
00:39:30,500 --> 00:39:33,266
You can see how
I've tried to show
886
00:39:33,266 --> 00:39:35,566
what it would look like
if you were, you know,
887
00:39:35,566 --> 00:39:38,100
inside
a hollowed-out tree.
888
00:39:39,566 --> 00:39:42,600
So you could have
those grand atrium spaces,
889
00:39:42,600 --> 00:39:45,533
and the staircases.
890
00:39:45,533 --> 00:39:48,133
In theory, right now,
891
00:39:48,133 --> 00:39:50,433
we can't necessarily
grow a tree like this.
892
00:39:50,433 --> 00:39:52,733
But this could
inform people who are
893
00:39:52,733 --> 00:39:54,700
working in synthetic biology.
894
00:39:54,700 --> 00:39:56,533
You are showing them
895
00:39:56,533 --> 00:39:58,566
what this output
could actually look like.
896
00:39:58,566 --> 00:40:02,600
Right.
AI is here to stay.
897
00:40:02,600 --> 00:40:06,200
It will be like your
assistant in your
design process
898
00:40:06,200 --> 00:40:08,733
all through the way,
motivating designers
899
00:40:08,733 --> 00:40:12,200
to be more expressive
and to experiment more.
900
00:40:12,200 --> 00:40:14,100
Just break all the rules
and, you know,
901
00:40:14,100 --> 00:40:15,633
think beyond
the boundaries.
902
00:40:17,200 --> 00:40:19,266
How do you feel Delhi
is going to become
903
00:40:19,266 --> 00:40:21,266
a city of the future?
904
00:40:21,266 --> 00:40:23,400
This will be one of
those cities which will
905
00:40:23,400 --> 00:40:25,166
have to adapt
very quickly.
906
00:40:25,166 --> 00:40:27,600
The only solution here
is to build
907
00:40:27,600 --> 00:40:31,700
more sustainably, to build
towards a greener future.
908
00:40:31,700 --> 00:40:35,200
If you look at nature,
nothing is unnecessary.
909
00:40:35,200 --> 00:40:38,266
Every pattern
and every tree
910
00:40:38,266 --> 00:40:41,066
that grows in a particular
way, it is following
911
00:40:41,066 --> 00:40:44,733
some rules, which we call
as sacred geometry.
912
00:40:44,733 --> 00:40:47,600
So the animals
and the little creatures,
913
00:40:47,600 --> 00:40:50,733
they have been using
the design principles,
914
00:40:50,733 --> 00:40:54,566
and they have been
the real architects,
I would say.
915
00:40:54,566 --> 00:40:58,100
So if we start
implementing those
systems in nature
916
00:40:58,100 --> 00:41:01,633
into architecture,
pick up all those
logics and bits
917
00:41:01,633 --> 00:41:03,733
and pieces of information,
and, you know,
918
00:41:03,733 --> 00:41:07,300
reimagine those systems,
that kind of architecture
919
00:41:07,300 --> 00:41:09,300
is what we are
all dreaming for.
920
00:41:09,300 --> 00:41:11,133

It's kind of like
a steam engine moment.

If you think back in history,
the steam engine
930

changed the face of the Earth

the history of the course

life begins to transform

You could say
the whole biosphere
947
00:42:27,400 --> 00:42:30,366
has a kind of intelligence.
948
00:42:30,366 --> 00:42:34,633
But now the lithosphere
is also intelligent.
949
00:42:34,633 --> 00:42:37,800
We have learned to
take rocks and metals

and run electric current
through them.

of the next couple decades is
gonna set the foundations
1038
00:46:47,300 --> 00:46:49,000
for a lot of what comes next.
1039
00:46:50,800 --> 00:46:54,066
Man: A and B speeds.
1040
00:46:54,066 --> 00:46:55,600
And the series finale,
take one.
1041
00:46:55,600 --> 00:46:57,000
Mark.
1042
00:46:58,433 --> 00:47:00,100
Woman: B mark, stop six.
1043
00:47:02,166 --> 00:47:04,333
[Laughter]
1044
00:47:04,333 --> 00:47:05,666
Wallach, voice-over: As this
chapter of my journey
1045
00:47:05,666 --> 00:47:07,666
comes to an end,
1046
00:47:07,666 --> 00:47:11,566
it's difficult to describe
the effect it's all had on me.
1047
00:47:11,566 --> 00:47:15,300
I set out in search of people
who are making better futures,
1048
00:47:15,300 --> 00:47:18,233
people who are building things,
1049
00:47:18,233 --> 00:47:21,666
changing things,
rewriting the story,
1050
00:47:21,666 --> 00:47:24,366
reimagining
what all this is for
1051
00:47:24,366 --> 00:47:29,066
and where we can take it
moving forward.
1052
00:47:29,066 --> 00:47:32,066
What I found is that
this moment of chaos
1053
00:47:32,066 --> 00:47:34,700
also holds the seeds
of creativity,
1054
00:47:34,700 --> 00:47:37,133
an opportunity
to remake our world
1055
00:47:37,133 --> 00:47:39,166
and write a bigger,
better story
1056
00:47:39,166 --> 00:47:41,833
about what it means
to be human,
1057
00:47:41,833 --> 00:47:44,200
remembering that whatever
we face up ahead,
1058
00:47:44,200 --> 00:47:48,233
we are in this together,
not alone.
1059
00:47:48,233 --> 00:47:51,500
And at the end of it all,
the feeling I'm left with most
1060
00:47:51,500 --> 00:47:55,500
is not hope,
but it's also not fear.
1061
00:47:55,500 --> 00:47:57,366
It's not a final
greeting card statement
1062
00:47:57,366 --> 00:47:59,066
that everything's
gonna work out,
1063
00:47:59,066 --> 00:48:01,833
nor is it a feeling
that all is lost.
1064
00:48:01,833 --> 00:48:05,100
[Indistinct conversation]
1065
00:48:05,100 --> 00:48:09,300
It's a feeling, a truly felt
belief, actually,
1066
00:48:09,300 --> 00:48:12,466
a belief that we have a choice,
1067
00:48:12,466 --> 00:48:14,733
a choice to decide to become
the great ancestors
1068
00:48:14,733 --> 00:48:18,200
our future needs us to be.
1069
00:48:18,200 --> 00:48:22,266
What does it mean
to be a great ancestor?
1070
00:48:22,266 --> 00:48:24,433
It means you make
the decisions that
1071
00:48:24,433 --> 00:48:29,700
ensure the future flourishing
of generations to come.
1072
00:48:29,700 --> 00:48:31,400
We all have agency.
1073
00:48:31,400 --> 00:48:34,266
It can be how we consume,
how we vote,
1074
00:48:34,266 --> 00:48:37,400
how we talk to one another--
1075
00:48:37,400 --> 00:48:42,400
these very small actions
that have long-term impacts.
1076
00:48:42,400 --> 00:48:45,600
If I was to be born at any time
1077
00:48:45,600 --> 00:48:48,766
in the grand arc
of human history,
1078
00:48:48,766 --> 00:48:51,433
I'd want to be born right now,
1079
00:48:51,433 --> 00:48:53,233
not some time
in the far future
1080
00:48:53,233 --> 00:48:55,166
when all the problems are solved
1081
00:48:55,166 --> 00:48:58,266
and everything is unicorns
and rainbows, but right now.
1082
00:48:58,266 --> 00:49:02,800
We're at this inflection point
where we're gonna decide,
1083
00:49:02,800 --> 00:49:05,433
really, the fate of our species.
1084
00:49:05,433 --> 00:49:08,266
What's so exciting
about this moment
1085
00:49:08,266 --> 00:49:13,600
is that we get to decide
what happens.
1086
00:49:13,600 --> 00:49:15,800
What do we become?
