using our lungs to get air to go over our vocal cords in such a way that in concert with the lips and the tongue i'm actually shaping the air into sounds that my laptop is picking up and going to your laptop it's going into their ears through their microphones or speakers and they're decoding this sentence and i don't even know how i'm doing it or where it's going to end

And it's like just one example of how miraculous it is to be human. We developed language and no one knows how that came about 60 or 70,000 years ago, it's thought, that all of a sudden the human brain went through some major change. And then all of a sudden, through language and language is much more related to thought than it is to conversation.

It's like somehow once we thought arose at the same time as language in a certain way and thoughts that led to other thoughts so that this is an amazing superpower because I can say to you if we actually took that stick and we sharpened it. and we put some feathers on the other end of it and we threw it, maybe it could actually get us dinner for our starving family.

Or if we took some seeds and we put them in some soil that we dug up, that maybe we could have food for the next time we run out of meat. And that's how agriculture happened, but it couldn't happen without thought and thought and language are totally related. Just the way I'm wagging my line word for tongue is long. So I'm wagging my tongue and creating all these vibrations and we're all decoding.

And it's, are you kidding me? This is like a miracle of miracle. Why don't, why do we have to kill each other over this? Why does this have to be us against us, me against you or us against them when we're all us? And one of the things that has been a marvel to me in terms of looking at this from the point of view of what the earth is going to need right now, no matter what,

whether people want to deny climate change or not. The climate doesn't care. The planet doesn't care whether you deny climate change. The ocean's going to keep rising. The glaciers are going to keep melting. And there's going to be an enormous amount of suffering. But if you think about it for a moment,

All the aerial photographs of what's happening with the glaciers and the polar ice caps melting, that's an extension of our senses. These military and satellite photographs of planet Earth, it's like a body scan, but not of your own body, but of the planet Earth. And what's happening to the rainforest. The rainforest in the 1930s, the 1940s, the 1950s, the 1960s, and now.
