Like there's this fucking Caltrain, which is a garden shed on rails going from San Francisco to all of these, you know, nice towns in Silicon Valley. And at every stop, you have a hundred billion plus company, if not by now a trillion dollar plus company. And that train sucks. And if you take the road, like the road also sucks, but you need to have a car for it. And homelessness is nuts there.
It's absolutely next level. And so why doesn't this get fixed? We have the best foundational layer models on AI on the planet coming out of that little piece of land. We got great, fantastic companies out there in every different vertical coming out of that piece of land. But none of it seems to have increased the average life quality, if you want so, of the population. None of it.

Look, I think about it every single day. There's not a night where I don't think about it. Now, one of the symptoms of our work is this massively decreased food wastage, as an example. And food wastage from after one major driver is carbon dioxide, of climate change, and of... inequality in particularly developing countries and so on and so forth. So I think it's contributing to that.

Do I think are we going fast enough every single day? But do I think that it fundamentally needs a different economic model? Yes. We've been essentially transitioning through three different generations of companies. And generation one is like What I do is completely disconnected to what's good for society or for the environment.

So I might be an oil company and at the end of the year, I have a profit and then I plant some trees through it. Fantastic. But by no means, I'm incentivized to actually do that. And if business is bad, that's the first thing I'm going to cut. So that's generation one.

Generation two is I actually recognize that every single human being and every organization as such, every company has first a negative impact and I'm going to strive to go for zero impact. And that's already fantastic and very few companies actually manage to achieve that.

And now I think we're approaching generation three of companies in which every unit of economic success is in direct correlation to a unit of success for economy and to the planet by the very foundational mechanics of the business model. So as an example. Let's say Amazon, if every single box that they would ship magically, Agree would be grown.
