vue - Bill Gates and John Green Discuss Agriculture

1. I think 20 year old Bill Gates would have never expected to be giving interviews on agriculture.
2. amazing guy!!!!!tnx bill gates!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
3. hibrid seeds are not the solution, we have advance in science sooo much so we are able to realice that we need to increase the biodiversity in our crop fields so the production can take care of it self and we can at the same time reduce or even more to stop using harmfull chemicals that are not only contaminating the soil and water,but the food we get.... high biodiversity agroecosystems are the solution, we have to stop the intense consumption of only a few kind of crops, but increase the diversity of it... mosanto is not the solution, mosanto is a trap and a harmful one for us all... if u use the seed u have to use the agrochemicals, and those are not nice ones, and the rate of nutrients needed for the crop to grow make the soil infertile in a short period of time... that is not sustainable!
4. Retitle this: John Meets His Future Self
5. He should run for president, because Trump v. Gates would be hilarious (or maybe HillaryUS)
6. Thank you 
   Thank you
   Thank you! 
   
   Most people are over simplifying agriculture.  As someone that has made her love and life agriculture its hard for people not to have a knee jerk reactions to agriculture based on the limited informartion without understanding the complexities of our markets, our environment, and our future
7. SO COOL!
8. Is it just me or does Bill Gates look like an older version of John?
9. I would like to see an improvement on the longrun. which might not be the direct intension of this video because of those peoples imediate problems. But if you talk about the impact that global warming is starting to have, than the biggest problems are going to appear in their childrens liftime and future generations. So I really hope that money is at least partially destinated to plant a variety of native trees every few meters within the fields. This will help the regenaration of a natural watercycle, increase soil quality and local water availability in the longrun. Look up -> agroforestry systems.
10. So impressed with Bill gates right now. He really  has done his research and has shown he really cares
11. Great job on the fundraising JG and congrats on meeting an extraordinary capitalist of our time!
12. "Why do we celebrate the vigilantic ambitions of lone billionaires?"
    -John Green.
13. GMOs help feed millions of people like this example. 
14. For shame, Bill Gates! Monsanto is evil. 
15. They know words good.
16. permaculture helps folks do sustainable growing without input of fertilizer.... there are folks helping to "green the desert" like Geoff Lawton. check it out!
17. Increasing world awesome and decreasing world suck.
18. Bill Gates said climate change is working against African agriculture. [Present Tense]
    
    To my knowledge climate change hasn't significantly affected African agriculture yet. I understand the necessity of making industrialized countries realize the consequences of their actions, but using future tense would do that and wouldn't be wrong.
19. GMO's are VITAL to humanity because they improve food stability by improving pest and drought resistance. Don't let technophobia get the better of you.
20. bill gates still sounds like as if he is still in his 20s...
