Very interesting (and a "bit" frightening) video.
« on: June 13, 2009, 06:32:03 AM »
I suggest you to look at these videos (8 of 9 mins each). It's a university professor taking a lesson on how dangerous could be not knowing the exponential math (e.g. in the population growing or in the usage of resources).

It could be very boring...

Edit: Any thoughts?

It's very interesting! In the start, video 1 and 2, I wasn't so interested, but when watching video 3 I got scared in some way.

initially the video tells only some infos on math, then it starts to link it on our world with very important consequences...

I remained a bit stunned when he started to show articles of scientist telling the opposite of what is happening (however the professor could have chosen - i hope it's well written - only those articles, leaving the ones that tells the truth, if it is really the truth...)
