First, this guy has an amazing comb-over. Fantastic! Secondly, this seems relevant as we may have just staved off the collapse of America. Obama!! Finally, does anyone else really love TED? It kind of feels like currents mature older sibling.

Why do societies fail? With lessons from the Norse of Iron Age Greenland, deforested Easter Island and present-day Montana, Jared Diamond talks about the signs that collapse is near, and how -- if we see it in time -- we can prevent it.

Thanks for this post. I think Jared Diamond is a very interesting man, and I'm glad to hear him speak.
I just spent some time on TedTalks for the first time and think I've found a new favorite. Thanks for the path! - 3 years ago
