The Crash Course of Chris Matenson

In the crash course, Chris Matenson says during the next 20 years,

  • Our currency supply
  • Our fuel consumption
  • Our use of environmental resources
cannot keep growing exponentially.

I agree with almost everything Chris says in this course, but in his entire course Chris fails to consider "human ingenuousness". There is no limit to the imagination of human mind e.g. Maybe during the next 20 years, humans will

  1. come with a Thorium generator, that can power entire cities.
  2. come up with cars that run on hydrogen, which is produced from water.
etc.

Humans can and will continue to evolve e.g. most humans can easily reduce their calorie consumption by half and still survive. Most humans can work harder and increase dramatically their production. Education is spreading via the Internet. Today, in developing world, a person with Internet access can have the same knowledge as a person studying in developed world.

The next 20 years will be different from the last 20 years, as Chris says. But, the change need not be for worse. It can be change for better.
