The earth is full (地球はもう限界)
Lately, I found a live streaming site named TED. Maybe you have already known or heard what they have done on internet. Basically, they are a global set of conference that evolves the annual presentation conference with a wide range of topics. You can go on its wiki for further details.
Anyway, recently I have spent my spare time to watch some videoes on TED. It's also possible to add subtitles on it if you need, so it might be useful to use when you would study English with those videoes.
This time I'd like to introduce one of those videoes to you, that the earth is full. As we already known, the earth has a lots of problems, and it tells us that we are stealing most of the resources on this planet from our future which is very unsustainable. And it also tells us that we need 50% more earth than we've got if we would keep operating at our living level that we've lived on.
This is about a kinda dramatic and a bit negative story that we've faced on. but you can see various presentations on various fields by unrenowned to renowned name.
Have time to check it out.
最近TEDというアメリカを中心に開催している講演会グループが、ネット上に無料配信してるサイトにはまってる。英語での配信だけど、日本語に変換できたりして英語の勉強にも役立ってる。
その中でも興味深かったプレゼンを紹介。
未来の資源までも食いつぶしてるとされる人間。この経済水準を今後も続けるためには、地球があともう半個分必要らしい。
これは地球環境の話やけど、他にもデザイナーとかアーティスト、医者とか世界的に有名な人から無名の人まで色んなユニークなプレゼンが見れる。時間がある人は是非。
