Arithmetics, Population and Energy
by Dr. Albert A. Bartlett
Prof. Emeritus
Dept. of Physics
University of Colorado at Boulder
This is just a fabulous lecture. He explains what modest rates of growth really mean in the long run. And also the reality of the numbers on energy consumption, growth and energy resources. This video is in 8 parts but well worth the time. It sheds real light on the surprising reality of growth and sustainability.
