    *petition agents cloud seeding*
    *Mass poisoning isn’t a solution for humanity*
    *It’s designed to poison our species*

    *Nothing You make will better our future*

    *To convince the next generation this is all for the best of us all is just a continued dismissal of our rights* .

    *This spokesperson looks like a robot made 20 years ago* .

    Nice and sounds good if everyone is perfect and rainbows and unicorns exist. In reality, the major top issue is with very advanced technology getting in the hands of the corrupt and misinformed to cause non-repairable damage to the future of the planet.

      its not individuals, its individuals taking advantage of a poorly —-designed— system. A more intentional design to public space, work, food, ect can lead to mass results. We have to put in hard work to make living sustainably effortless.

    I know it’s hard to go deep in less than 10 minutes, but this is a very shallow video, full of marketing-style buzzwords that don’t mean anything without context or details.
    I’m honestly unsure what the point of this video is, other than “Modern problems need modern solutions! My team exists to explore these solutions!”. It feels like a sales pitch for investors.

      Except society mandates function for people to live. Humans have to work in numerous disciplines to sustain this system. That’s why lockdowns have had catastrophic effects on world economies & caused mass unemployment due to reduced productivity.

      You cannot just print endless money. Problems must be solved instead of being exaggerated & delayed. People have to return to normal quickly.

      I made an investment of £57000 into BTC trading with a professional hoping to make profit or at least not lose my money, To my utmost surprise my ROI has be generated by over 65% every 7days, it’s nice to see such competence. Most corporations and individual don’t know how good bitcoin investment is.
