Harari Meets Kids - Can Humans Live in Harmony With Nature?

Can humans live in harmony with nature? It depends if you mean in theory or in practice… The gap between the two can always be bridged, because our unstoppable species has a choice. Exploring big life questions with children serves as a great reminder of all the possibilities available to us.

    We will never restrain ourselves. Nothing will stop us. We will always want more. We will never get satisfied enough to care, breed and expand more and more life forms throughout all the Universe. In fact we are the only animal with the efective skills, knowledge and power to BRING HARMONY TO NATURE. And we will.

    The earth has biophysical limitations. That will stop us. It is folly to think that WE can bring harmony to NATURE, for it is NATURE that will bring us back in harmony with it, as we continue to exceed the ecological carrying capacity of the planet.

    @@cdub9923 Yes, you are right regarding the limitations of earth. That's why I said the Universe (the Moon, Mars, etc.). Yes, you are right when you say that it is nature the one which will bring us to harmony but I'm also right when I say that it is we the ones who will effectively bring that harmony bc we ourselves are nature itself (ok only a part of it but we still are it). In no way lions or ants will bring the Harmony Yuval is speaking about. As he says all of them lack the power we have to do so. What I say it's true bc it is already happening: Nature is forcing us to not pollute the environment further if (among oter things) we want to breath clean air without asphyxiating us ourselves and curiously electric cars among other things (renewable energies) are rising up as I'm writing this comment. If you think that reality is a folly in fact, well, you know.

    Sometimes bad words are really for good: Yuval, if you dont gain more weight than even the lions will be able to eat one of our own. Maybe a lion will eat me! I say this because you trigger my brain everytime I hear the words lions, chimpanzees, orangutans, giraffes. Thanks for the video. Your message about future generations and other species and how we can evolve and not devolve to help all of the above- this is what I too also share with you You are very quick and logical in all these interviews The living as well as the inorganic has a consciousness to varying degrees. It is a way of saying the spirit behind the body and movements and language. Its the spiritual that you see when you look at lets say a rose and see it grow in front of you in minutes that in reality takes the spring. Likewise, you see a child before the change of teeth and on to its next stage and that progression is a view of this noncorporal “spirit” that we will never understand until we use the faculty of intuition. These words are not fanciful words but are extremely exact and scientifically robust but for now its not the way it seems. This will be where medical advancements will arrive from in the very distant future-perhaps only arriving in a future generation- so how we present this will give those generations the nonmaterialistic science they will need

    Zadowolenie,umiar i cierpliwość to mądrość człowieka na ziemi aby cieszyć się życiem. Życie zgodnie z przyrodą, matką naturą daje człowiekowi wolność. Wszelakie udogodnienia to ograniczenia nas samych, naszej kreacji umysłu,zdolności myślenia i korzystania z tego co najlepsze dla człowieka. Słońce,którym ludzkość straszą,filtry w kremie,okulary a przecież rośliny jako żywe chłoną promienie aby wzrastać i pięknieć-nie potrzebują filtrów.?!. Pozdrawiam.

    Duszę ma każda istota, to energia istnienienia. Dusza to moc, którą nauka rozumie lecz jej nie potrafi zaprogramować ani sklonować i to jest nasza ludzja moc. Każdy ma energię zwierzęta, rośliny, przedmioty. Prosty przykład niech ktoś w twoim domu schowa np. Twoją ulubioną książkę. Ty ją znajdziesz jak będziesz intensywnie szukać - połączyłaś się z jej energią i nastąpiło odnalezienie. Pozdrawiam. Chociaż raz zrób to doświadczenie a przekonasz się.

    It isn't far fetched to draw similarities between a growing city and a living organism; nourished by sun, wind, river in essence, matter and practice, yet the natural intuition to avoid throwing the river out of its bed, although anything but new, takes a bit more time to sink in.

    The solution for that is pretty simle "Earthships" but for some strange reason we're not building them.

    It isn’t about humans living in harmony with nature. It is about Nature accepting you. Are the particles allowing you to feel the consciousness of nature? That is the question.

    Human wants only happiness but he doesn't know what happiness is? Can you answer me why 1. did we get out jungle? 2 we started agriculture and living settled life? 3 we evolved concept of money, state 4 we have developed this technology Just to become happy. To live in harmony with natural, the study of human needs to be brought in education system.

    We did not come from animals. That is a lie. Your lies can never become truths. Let God's Word be true, but every man a liar. For how God created His creation we are different from animals. For God made man in His image. Animals were created for us to enjoy. (Such as pets like a dog, cat, or rabbit and birds) We as humans have a living soul and animals do not have souls. Those who deny the truth to God's Holy Word 📖 👇 2 Thessalonians 2:10-12 KJV 📖♥️ And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth that they might be saved. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusions, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believe not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
