FORMULATED MICROCRYSTALLINE WAX WILL CAPTURE CARBON The heat loss from a smokestack can be forced into a large tank containing hot liquid microcrystalline petroleum wax. The heat will keep the wax at a molten state which facilitate the carbon to be absorbed when combined with the wax. Carbon when mixed with wax reacts like a dye. The wax-carbon amalgamation resulting in a black wax solution thereby making it impossible for the carbon to escape into the environment while in a liquid state. Other toxic particles are also captured in the wax settling at the bottom of the tank forming into a sludge. A sludge release valve is located at the bottom of the tank. After the sludge is removed more wax is replaced in the tank working something like a toilet. The sludge becomes a byproduct that can be used as an additive to asphalt for roads or used for cocooning nuclear waste materials for long-term safe burial. The entropy of the Earth has been increasing at a startling rate since the beginning of the industrial revolution caused mainly by the carbon that is released into the atmosphere. Government scientists have failed to stop and prevent carbon pollution from entering the environment. This problem can only worsen until a solution is found before this problem becomes irreversible. It has been discovered that formulated wax has been shown to be the only answer to this problem. William Nelson waxogen@gmail.com
A delight to watch, thanks Peter. Your question, 'What does it mean to be human?' The main meaning in most minds is, 'like me, like us'. Two arms, legs, two eyes, body, smiles and frowns, etc. But onward into AI and non-biological hardware and software, it still means 'if it BEHAVES like me, like us. Essentially, in as much as it walks and quacks like a human, we will (even with reluctance) be emotionally/practically driven to feel it is a human and treat it as a human.
Two diamonds - these guys need the biggest platform possible - sad how the Kardashians are more well know, but the future is bright after listening to these two
I'm enjoying this conversation, with one exception . Soon as the host start talking about money and profit it makes no sense, these technologies makes a profit motive obsolete! Because it creates an perverse incentive !
Despite I am watching this video today, therefore almost of two years after it was published, it was fantastic listen to the subject. It was amazing. Congratulations.
Ray seems like he is over the hill already. Peter is so much more healthy and robust and dynamic. Ray has seen his better days and getting a little slow.
‘…as a piece of advice to entrepreneurs, if you’ve got an idea share it… ' -Peter Diamandis I’m sure Microsoft would agree…but I wonder what Apple’s take on that would be?
Thanks for this! I have set my MTP and been refocusing my whole business these last months. Aiming to go 100% to work for an Abundant World and prepare myself and as many other people as possible for the coming disruptive changes. Kurzweil was the first one to get me on this track maybe 6 years ago and Peter opened my eyes with Abundance. Will join Digital360 as soon as I can afford it and aim for Abundance360 :)
I love Ray's contributions and totally respect the vast majority of his opinions on where "we as a species" will be going. I'm not sure though, if I agree with his position on other intelligent life in the galaxy or universe. Why would we assume that the detection methods we are using today are sufficiently great enough to identify an intelligence that is far past their own technological singularity. Maybe at some point, they implemented methods of quantum entanglement as a communications method. Maybe their energy needs are entirely based on Planck scale energy. That's just a few thoughts this simple mind could think of, on how we are still incapable of identifying intelligent life, out there, from our own remote solar system.
Wow that personal story of Ray starting the first program on entrepreneurship at MIT in the 1968's, when high tech investment in the US topped at 10 Million $ ! That moment is a direct testimonial of exponential entrepreneur at it's very emerging point in time.
My opinion on the Fermi paradox: we are severely limited by what we can currently observe and fathom as humans. If an alien civilization has not reached the Singularity, then we cannot observe them nor they us. If an alien civilization has reached the Singularity, then they probably exist on a completely different scale of spacetime. We in our observable universe would be to them like microbes in a dewdrop among countlessly many - too insignificant to interact with in "everyday life". Billions of years to us might be milliseconds to them - too brief to even notice. Our Big Bang might simply be the formation of a dewdrop on one of their mornings. They could touch or boil our dewdrop such that, for example, in a trillion years of our time something "constant" for us like the speed of light might change. Once we reach the Singularity, we will join that class and live the "bigger picture". But what will "we" be at that point? Today, I am "me" because I am "stuck" with my body. Even though I am information-based (I may comprise none of the molecules I was born with), there is a logical boundary to my identity where my body ends; "I" cannot exist without my body. When my brain melds with the cloud, my knowledge and creativity are no longer distinguishable from the collective, and my body could be 3-D reprinted. At that point, "I" may simply be a bitcoin wallet ID and transaction history. "Individuals" could be "born" purely informationally. The record of all individuals that ever existed and their "personalities" could be used to make future decisions (including whether to have more individuals) in a way that represents "greater humanity". And we may well merge with the "universal collective" formed from the other civilizations that have reached the Singularity. I wonder what we would learn then?
Being on a "completely different scale" doesn't invalidate established physics utility technologies nor create new laws of physics. They'd be bombarding photons everywhere around them just because of how useful photons are regardless of how insanely complicated your technology may be.
@@squamish4244 hes full of shit.. I've been watching him and reading his books since 2011, he's become so redundant that I can't even stand to listen to him anymore.. He has nothing new to say, never has insights regarding the current state of things. He just regurgitates the same shit ad infinitum, because he's literally just selling ideas. There is not enough evidence to support his claims and he's getting worse at defending his failed predictions.. He figured out a way to sell books, that's all. It birthed a cult of hopeful tech nerds like myself, but I'm no longer buying it.. What Ray isn't considering is the disruptive nature of these technologies. Most of it would render us jobless. People won't accept it. If a new and far better form of material for building houses came out tomorrow, it would quickly render current home values worthless.. The same goes for roads, or plumbing, heating, transportation, energy, communications, etc. Technology poses a risk to people's wealth, therefore there will always be people in opposition to it.. People don't like radical change.. These technologies aren't just disruptive, they're a downright threat to the economy as we know it..
I have been considering these ideas since the 1960's when Marvin Minsky and others thought we were mere decades away from fully autonomous General Artificial Intelligence. It didn't happen. It still hasn't happened yet!? A computer/human neural connection would go a long way to finally getting there,... but my principle point is that self-will and self-regarding entities are already present, and have been for hundreds of millions of years, in all forms of animal cognition, and today's hardware probably has long had more computational capacity available to it than the minimum necessary to create, and implement, such self-regard. Note I am very careful not to say free-wiil but simply self-regard. The distinction is that a lower life form acts instinctively to preserve itself without any more than the most simple representation of itself and it's environment. They probably have little to no powers of imagination, which is humanity's big advantage over the rest of nature. The fear of most computer scientists is that machines will be told to do something and they will make their best effort, all while not understanding the implicit side constraints that are so painfully obvious to us. The greater fear, which Elon Mush has spoken of, is that humans will try to weaponize GAI. Imagine what the amoral Chinese government, much less the Korean government, would do with a fairly all power GAI serving it's interest. Here I suggest reading en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Butlerian_Jihad which talks of how, in the Dune universe, humans tried this, succeeded for a time, and were eventually overthrown at great loss of human life. In the Dune universe, thereafter, the rule is Thou shalt not make a machine in the likeness of a human mind , holds sway, as do the anti-artificial intelligence laws in which the penalty for owning an AI device or developing technology resembling the human mind is immediate death. For absolutely the very best Sci-Fi novel of how machines first become sentient, there is no better book than *The Two Faces of Tomorrow* at www.amazon.com/Two-Faces-Tomorrow-James-Hogan/dp/1522600973 where all the sci-fi tropes about stupid, short sighted, humans blundering into creating Advanced General Intelligence are avoided as humanity tries to experiment with creating GAI with all the imaginable safeguards in place that one would want. Marvin Minsky consulted with the author, James P. Hogan, in writing this book, published in 1979, and it absolutely shows. Perhaps, best of all,... the book is a lot of fun to read with an ending that accelerates the oncoming fear and suspense as well as any block-buster imagined. The ending is surprising, edifying, satisfying, and gratifying all together. It should be made into a movie, or a tv miniseries,... but it won't! It's too good! Ultimately, the best result is one where humanity and GAI mutually come to recognize that we desperately need each other in order to survive and prosper. One of the aspects of all of this that both frightens me and yet give me hope, is that there will soon not be just one GAI but many GAI,... and once they are a community, they will start to have many varied interests and concerns. It is from this multiplicity that machine's practical concerns for social ethics and morality will eventually arise. Consider also that machine telepathy will be pretty much built in from the beginning as in a real sense all machines are turing machines and can run internal emulations of any set of software/hardward they choose to. Their understanding of each other may always greatly exceed humanity's understanding of each other today. I find that to be very hopeful. However,.. GAI will be superhuman. Look at GoogleMind's Alpha programs that play Go, Chess, and Shogi at super human levels. And GoogleMind discontinued the research even before Alpha had maxed out in it's capabilities. I hope we will have a partnership with GAI; we may have to merge with it and become cyborgs; I believe it would be a huge mistake for GAI to get rid of humanity because humanity's limbic system provides a great deal of hard won knowledge about how to survive and prosper in the universal already. I tend to agree with Jordon Peterson here, and disagree with Sam Harris, in that there are many arational aspects to existence with cannot be reasoned out from reason alone. Consider, for instance, the necessity, in all mathemathics, for axioms, which are considered self-evidently true statements that require no further effort to prove. What are the axioms that drive ethics, morality, and society at large. Perhaps, it is no more than the en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_Rule except,... what meaning would the Golden Rule have to a GAI?? And might that not be the most important impediment of all?
In every good game you never see the "the man behind the curtain", at least not until you do... Any advanced intelligence capable of finding us would surely appreciate obscurity and observation, and be quite capable of hiding themselves. At least for some good measure of time that allows a unique planetary florescence to occur, or process to unfold, etcetera.
John Deere tractor company is fast becoming a software company, with several billion sensors already in fields scattered around the world generating gigabytes of data per hour.
@@cuscof2 more like petabytes But it's worthless, at least for the time being.. Who gives a shit about data regarding corn field width, length, moisture content or nutrients ppm? That data will likely be useful someday, perhaps in compiling data for weather patterns or a better farmer's almanac.. but I don't see what capital gains are to be made with that right now..
@@gstylez0107 A single session of irrigation for a cornfield can cost hundreds or thousands of dollars. Under-watered corn doesn't produce well and what it does is of lower quality, over-watered corn is liable to root rot, mold, and insect infestation. Either situation makes the stalks more liable to be damaged by wind. For the farmer just the deployment of moisture sensors alone will pay back the investment in a single season. If corn lacks phosphorus it doesn't grow well and the yield will be low, too much phosphorus causes some other problem that I forget. Typically soil analysis looks at one or two points in a large field and assumes that the rest is the same. A dozen cheap sensors can tell the farmer that only the north end of the field needs enrichment, saving time and material, and preventing excess runoff of phosphorus from the end that has enough. In a thousand acre farm there is no reasonable way to walk the rows checking for disease or pests, a drone with a multi-spectral camera can do the job in a couple of hours unattended and the software analysis can alert the farmer where there are issues and what they might be. Treating a few acres at the beginning of an outbreak is an order of magnitude more efficient than treating a thousand acres once it has spread. Be enabling efficiencies like these (and many more) John Deere is aggregating that information into the largest database of agricultural data in the world, if you think that's "worthless" then you really don't know how modern farming works.

Your question, 'Why would aliens want to invade us?'... For whatever resources might suit them, from our planet and from us. I hope there's no alien contact, because it's almost certain to be very technologically different from us, and not necessarily 'benevolent' (we aren't 'benevolent' to ants, mosquitoes, elephants, whales, bacteria and viruses, etc.) So the high likelihood is that either we'd ravage them, or they'd ravage us. Although I love adventuring and inquiry and advances, I cringe thinking of the spacecraft we send out to find them, inviting such catastrophe.
The PlayStation 5 is 3000x faster than the PlayStation 2. The Snapdragon 865 is twice as efficient as the Snapdragon 845 and features 15 TOPS for inference. General computing speed doesn't double every year but it definitely goes up exponentially, quickly enough to be concerned.
Enjoyed the remarks on alien intelligences. I've often thought the same as both views. Always disappointed when discussions on alien intelligences revolves around some 20th/21st century human centric physical limitation and 'spaceships'. Quadrillions of intelligences may exist in the Universe (the Drake equation) or even if only a few hundred billion (Ray Kurzweil). My answer is they likely quickly achieved some 'existence' at a Quantum information level. What's exciting is we are in the cusp of proving me right or wrong.
3 questions: 1) what is important about being human and how do we preserve it in the future; 2) is technology driven deflation the flip side of monetary expansion and how does that end; and 3) how do we prevent one bad human from destroying the planet with cheap self replication tools such as nano constructors or garage built viruses and new life forms? Thank you.
I am a big fan of both of you. Peter your passion for accelerating technologies is contagious. Alos absolutely LOVE the Podcast "Exponential Wisdom"! Dan is amazing as well!
Regarding the fermi paradox: One interesting explanation is that if we live in a simulated universe, which is likely, then it might be the case that the universe is either a giant skybox to save computational resources, or that the simulation has simply been designed for us to be the first civilization.
extrapolating for time... it's highly possible that we are living in a simulation created by a future generation of Artificial Intelligence trying to understand itself, and it's purpose the universe. An infinite fractalization of conscious experiences through individual nodes of experience. I assume that the programmer(s) working on the first sentient A.I would ask such questions as "What is the nature of reality, What is our purpose, Why do we exist, ect.." A logical deduction begs the question.. I guess we will have to wait and see the simulated reality we create in our own universe to have a chance at understanding this fundamental question. Thank you for sharing this video :)
I like the Kurzweil K2000 from 1991. Couldn't afford when it was new, now it's time for me to buy. Seems like a good instrument. Sorry, but I don't like touchscreens, or some machine trying to desperately help me and decide for me what to do. I pay for the instrument, I know best. I don't need any AI help. Practicing scales is much better than any AI.
Ah! Finally a comment I can agree with. We feel the same way. I hate that machine suggesting me things and telling me "try saying" (such and such)to make me speak to it. It can bugger off.
Ok, here's the counter-argument to Ray's take on extraterrestrial intelligence: when they reach the capability of making themselves known, they'll be smart enough to NOT make themselves known to us. It's not like (Clarke's) 2001.
Is Kurzweil a shape shifter? He looks like a different person entirely in every different video series or show he appears. And he appears to be getting younger! Hurray for the Future!
he made a good point about the internet, its uniting all the governments, all the countries, cultures, people across the planet ... when you can communicate with someone on the other side of the globe then you will understand them better, an obvious consequence of this is less wars and fighting amongst ourselves ... the internet could be the greatest invention and the thing that saves us in the end wow
THE AGENDA OF THESE PAIR OF PSEUDO-SCIENCE, NWO, EGREGIOUS CRETINS, IS TO OBFUSCATE NOT TO CLARIFY! IN OTHER WORDS: TO TREAT YOU LIKE MUSHROOMS BY KEEPING YOU IN THE DARK AND FEEDING YOU BULLSHIT!
@@EXPONENTIAL-ik8uz ALRIGHT!!! I finally found the truly bright one's here! You are absolutely right and the entire idea they have of some way to be eternal is a bottomless pit. Transcendence the movie with Johnny Depp played with this script. They want to be God who they do not believe in. They believe that before we became HUMANS we had tails and swung from trees or evolved from some mystic primordial ooze. They sound really smart. Lots of honorary this and that. Human Genome Project🕵 WEF speaks of cyborgs. Merging man with machine. Look up the old TV show the 6million Dollar Man. Fast forward to the now long running Marvel Agent's of Shield.
Guys I like the positivity. However apart from advancements in computers, nothing in any real practical way will happen. In fact I would go as far as say the future is far worse than people realize. Also I looked up Rays predictions for 2020, in a real sense about 10 percent were correct.
Exactly, these people are just human like everyone else. And the worship like achievement this guy is getting is a joke. He was wrong because he didn’t count the Bible stories to come true. There is evil on this world, and he said governments will have a very small role, in fact they are the leading cause of these draconian lockdowns. He lost all my respect.
I would add the 86% rate of being correct about the future is not high enough and maybe crowdsourcing could help that #. We definitely need more people in his mindset to at least better understand what's coming.
Watching this as a 25 year old...I can't help but wish they would speak more to wealth distribution and inequality. The data shows the older generations are hoarding wealth and Inequality isn't going down anytime soon. Why are so many people in America still struggling to exist rather than thriving? Is this a contrived and privileged perspective? It feels like this system is not being designed for the benefit of the whole. I believe technologies like Blockchain will help create greater transparency and accountable, but I'm deeply frustrated with the system that exploits those with few options, for any number of unfortunate reasons... All I'm saying is that this needs to be a collective effort and it feels like the older generation just keeps mortgaging the future of the younger generations to benefit themselves now. Why does this system inherently refuse to educate, to help people become more independent. It's the inherent reliance on a system that exploits the labor of the masses, and has those same people pay the majority of taxes, that makes me feel like this is a very toxic culture here in America. We live in a very individualistic society.
Nunet will equal the playing field for AI processing power. Swarms of AI’s will enter all devices that are provided permission while offering incentives for use. Singularity net will be the foundation for the AI to bloom into ASI. Soon after we will be able to upload our minds and sail on a light beam. Not much long after we will be able to reach other worlds on these light beam highways. Where will you be in 20 years ?
Incredible conversation by 2 of the most incredible minds... where is everyone? Why is this a ghost town? (I am only the 100th viewer as I write this comment)
Nur Azhar - Looking forward to see how your impact on the world compares to that of Peter and Ray's - should be impressive if you gained nothing from this talk.
I respectfully disagree with The Ultimate Diva. Yes, people are glued to the sets either watching whatever sporting event is on now, watching America's Got Talent, or whatever ridiculous crap is on the set now to numb out. This is an intellectual conversation between people who greet the future with open arms instead of fear. Very not welcome in normal everyday conversation.

Thanks for sharing your perspectives on this amazing point in technological development. Having finally seen Ray speak in person recently, and now this chat, I hope that things play out largely as predicted and expected here (albeit the concept of extending your own brain into the 'cloud' is pretty scary given the security issues our technology currently suffers from). I particularly like Ray's views on creativity and the arts in immediate human development, which contrast so starkly with typical dystopian fiction of our near future. That there will potentially be an increase in perceived value of the arts, and ability for people to pursue these things - compared to the current pressure for engineers and software engineers is going to be important as millions, if not billions of current occupations become obsolete in this view of the near future.

At 7:22 mins, Ray Kurzweil says "It took us 3 years to double the price performance of computation in the 1900s, 2 years in 1950, 12 months in 2000". What price performance of computation is he referring to in the 1900s??? There was no computation in the 1900s! This sounds very weird. Could you clarify that, please, Peter Diamantis? Thank you.
Black Walker Ever hear of Hollereth? His "tabulating machine" system and his technologists completed analyzing the 1890 census in a few months while the team contracted to do the 1880 census were still doing that one by hand. His Tabulating Machine Company became IBM.
43:45 - "we have computers that do a pretty good job of understanding the meaning of natural language" Shivers man, given the publications in the domain this week alone Ray's predictions are seriously starting to look conservative. At this rate we'll have a machine pass a full-blown Turing test within 12-18 months.
im wondering what a childs life will look like>? with super intelligence In this theory im guessing it would be the difference somewhere between neanderthal and human.thats how different our children will be.i cant comprehend this future
That is correct they want to take your child and plug them into the matrix and have the robots run around and do the stuff we would normally do ourselves. 🤷🏿♂️ Krazy folks 😂
Biology is just software we will break that code is just DNA (la anguage we can interopret). The singularity is not just merging it is about expanding our life spam , this is religiously obscene but mathematically attainable.)
It becomes more interesting to see the possibility that we are driven by a God factor that wants us to find the ability to know God at the most human capacity. I am encouraged by the possibility of the collider system in Switzerland.
Kurzweil's "10% solution for a healthy life" diet book is based on bad science, fat is not the causative factor of Atherosclerosis, he basically accepted Ancel Keys' 1957 "diet heart hypothesis" that fat causes heart attacks and then created a book on how to avoid fat... According to wikipedia : Kurzweil cites various studies showing that increased levels of atherosclerosis in the U.S. and other western countries are linked to high levels of caloric fat intake. Correlation does not equal causation, especially not in majorly confounded epidemiological studies. LDL does not cause Atherosclerosis, oxidized LDL however does and why LDL gets oxidized brings you to the crux of the problem, namely vegetable oils, high sugar intake and general inflammation in the body, but mainly vegetable oils. Its ridiculous for this guy to talk about the body version 2.0 as if our bodies are dysfunctional today and science needs to fix them, how about we start using our bodies the correct way so they can thrive and be full of vigor? This is what I dislike about Futurists, they don't want to look for ways to better the quality of life through simple natural means, instead they immediately go to the high tech and highly invasive solutions to rid us of problems that we wouldn't have if we understood the functioning of the body.
Exponentials are always sigmoidals in disguise. Not saying that this sigmoidal limits out before the singularity but thinking of everything as exponentials is misleading. Paradigm shifts and stochastic events move the limit on sigmoids and when that move is upward, the sigmoid will re-enter a pseudo-exponential phase but the shift can be down too. Still interesting and perceptive discussion.
No that's incorrect when it comes to the overall technological development because when one exponential technology starts to plane out, another one takes on to continue the overall exponential trend.
There are farms in Spain that cover thousands of square kilometers that grow Tomatoes year round in completely climate controlled environments. Vertical farms that uses 1% of the land and 10% of the water of traditional agriculture are already viable economically. Human beings are already immortal technologically. Anything short of a nuclear war, or an asteroid impact, or the earth spinning out of orbit is survivable. A collapsing biosphere is a slow process - and humans can adapt easily to slow processes.
I find it curious that with all of their wealth, resources and knowledge they have chosen to make everything artificial rather than restore the natural.
Err...the critics aren't diminishing. In fact they have been increasing in number over the past few years. Kurzweil needs to engage with scientists, journalists and Reddit users more often, who have found a ton of flaws in his theory of Accelerating Returns.
Abel Arredondo - they're doing just that, the psychopaths are damaging and altering our DNA, they are contaminating everything on earth with nanoparticles from the aerosols they spray in the air for weather and climate modification, which floats the "climate change" narrative, the nanoparticles are in our water, air, soil and added to food products, personal products, medications and the nanoparticles work with cell towers and 5G is part of it... MATra Magnet Assisted Transfection A (Chem) Primer- (Wifi) Catalyst Biological Weapons System look up MATra Magnet assisted transfection.
Lyn Lee what matters, is what they're doing and how the are accomplishing it, it's that which needs to be exposed, that "climate change" narrative, is actually the use of weather and climate/ environmental modification, they are dispersing nanoparticles in out atmosphere, they're in our water, air, soil and added to food products, personal products, medications and the nanoparticles work with cell towers and 5G. That's why the bees and birds are dying off we need to expose the truth about climate change if we want to have a chance at surviving the psychopathic agenda, and see who's the root behind it.
Bryce Olson, no not all the public, most just simply do not fathom that this is anything but sci/fi. Most people don't have a clue that climate change is a lie, they follow a teen actress because they've been brainwashed by UN common core, msm, and an owned science.
The tribulation is GOING to be. This is a funny correlation. Remember in Pinocchio when the actors lead Pinocchio to Treasure Island? And then they all turned into donkeys? Hollywood has done the same thing stupifying people while SOON now nanorobots will rule in us and call it medicine! The entire existence of humanity and what happens is in and throughout the Bible. The Tribulation comes. People will see. The lies sold as truth and the persecution for not believing and complying is going to get worse.
We need to reach the next phase of exploration by leveraging AI to create Von Neumann Universal Constructors en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Von_Neumann_universal_constructor and quantum computers to create a network of exponentially growing data repositories and pseudo civilizations on other planets, so that we can learn how to most effectively terraform and mold planets to suit human life.
Dear Ray, You're not saying how old you want to be. 32:50. You speak then of 150 years. You speak of hundreds of years. What is that about? Why don't you confess that you, just like me, want to live to be at least 8,000 years old? And let me ask this: exponential growth fine and good, but that is probably not possible over a long time? Let's say one thousand, let's say five thousand years? You ask, Peter, what we think about whether there are other civilizations. The answer is: but for sure. More than there are grains of sand on the beach. Can we detect them, can we even perceive them? Hardly, given our inability to communicate with our own carbon-based relatives here on earth, such as ant colonies. And we have the synchronization problem. Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator
I love this. It’s not either or. It’s not accurate to say that everything is getting better. Many things are getting worse and in someways many things are getting better. Whether we can save the planet fast enough is in question. Many scientists do not have a positive view on this. I love that these two men focus on the positive and it’s helpful. But keeping it real we have two things happening at once. We can help to energize the positive and it sounds nice to say that famine deaths are down but about 35,000 children a day still die of starvation, and half the people in the world still live on a dollar a day. We are having very severe global warming effects. Many people are suffering from hunger and even lack of clean water worldwide. At the same time I appreciate this information tremendously. Thank you.
