In the introduction to this video the host noted that Noam Chomsky has written 150 books and has been in thousands of videos. In most of his videos, his contributions are about detailing things. He goes into detail about things that people in our nation don’t actually want to hear. They want the big picture – we are a free an industrious people…

In this video Noam goes into a few details about the gravity of our times. He talks about the (literally) devastating US Supreme Court decision.https://wildlandstour.com/the-us-supreme-court/ “which if approved will constitute a major step towards preventing the government from enacting measures to restrict the use of fossil fuels or to limit the effects of environmental destruction”

But, he mostly gives us the bigger picture of our human species. We are intelligent. We have the capacity to destroy everything. The Doomsday Clock stands now at 100 seconds to midnight.

I see this video as the personal message of an aging man. The video’s background palette matches his skin color, and veils the discolorations on his face. He addresses the solar industry audience personally:

We are at a unique point in human history. One way or another you will determine whether we march on to disaster, or whether the human species and much other life on Earth can be saved.

Message heard, Noam!
