What do you, personally, think you will remember most about this interview a year from now? (10 points)
I think I will remember most how to best show businessmen how their prediction that everything will be the same in the future, is wrong. The reality is that people think linearly.

From my perspective, legislation on a broad scale will be needed to make all large corps on the same page, to eliminate the potential for defect (from game theory) and make real, effective change.

This interview is about climate change. In the video, it is said that every single large corporation that _____ talked with recognized that climate change was both a real issue and an issue that is the product of human actions. Seventy percent of the impact comes from the top 1,000 companies. The key is getting these corporations to act on this issue, and this is exactly the topic of this video.
