As someone who's really into tech, the idea of using data and sensors to monitor nature is super cool to me. It feels like we’re finally getting the tools we need to understand what’s really going on with the environment.
It’s inspiring to see someone who’s worked in so many different fields come up with a new way to look at wealth. We need more people like this thinking outside the box
I really like how he used examples from history to show how our idea of wealth has changed over time. It makes it easier to see that maybe we’re due for another big shift
I’ve never heard anyone talk about a "nature-based economy" before, but the way he describes it makes so much sense. It’s crazy we haven’t moved toward something like that sooner.
It’s frustrating how little incentive there is to protect the land. He nailed it when he said farmers like Ian are stuck in a system that rewards them for degrading their land.
The way he's asking us to think about wealth is really interesting, and I agree it's far past time that we reconsider basing it on just money alone because there are definitely more precious things out there
This talk makes some great examples of how interconnected everything is - our economy, the environment and our well-being are so much more closely linked than we think
His point about how we never reinvest in nature is so true. We’re always taking, but we rarely think about putting anything back. That mindset definitely needs to change!
A nature based economy just sounds like returning to pre-industrial revolution values. And I'm into it. It makes sense that we should place importance on a resource that _can_ regenerate if we give it the opportunity to
The concept of 'nature equity' as a way to solve the climate and nature riddle is fascinating. It's like combining economics with environmental stewardship.
I totally agree with him that we’re in this weird moment of tension. You can feel it everywhere, like people know something has to change, but no one’s quite sure how to make it happen yet.
I’ve been working in finance for a while now, and I’ve never heard of something like "nature equity" before. It sounds like a fresh approach that might actually help balance out the crazy resource use we see today.
Honestly, this talk made me rethink how I look at wealth in such a cool way. I grew up thinking it’s all about money, but now I’m starting to see that wealth should also be about preserving the planet we live on.
It’s interesting how he connects economics to ecology. I always thought of those as separate worlds, but after hearing this, it’s clear that we need to stop seeing them as separate if we want to fix the planet.
The idea of combining fintech with nature? That’s something I wouldn’t have expected. It’s really cool to see someone with so much experience find a way to merge those two worlds into something that could genuinely make a difference.
So cool that his skills and previous experiences align in a way to give him this kind of perspective! Really speaks to applying all your skillset towards solving problems
Wow, "erasing the hard drive of life" that one really hit me. I never thought of extinction in such brutal terms, but that’s exactly what’s happening. Feels like we’re running out of time to change things
This is so cool to think about! It's (hopefully) only a matter of time before the collapse of capitalism and we need a new type of monetary system to take its place
When he mentioned how past civilizations valued things like cacao beans and birds as wealth, it made me think about what future generations will value. Maybe it won’t be money after all?
Ahh man "consciously erasing the hard drive of life" is grim af... I guess it's a realistic way to phrase what's happening in terms of extinction but man is it a brutaI turn of phrase
Interesting, not? We pretend to live in the information economy. And we are shredding penta-bytes and billions of years of life's information every day.
Anyone else concerned about 70% of vertebrates becoming extinct over the last 50years? We haven't even discovered them all, surely there important to the world. Who knows the consequences.

We like nature from a far. A beautiful waterfall on your screen without suffering the leeches to see it in person.

It’s frustrating how little incentive there is to protect the land. He nailed it when he said farmers like Ian are stuck in a system that rewards them for degrading their land.
The idea of redefining wealth to include nature is really intriguing. It makes so much sense to value what actually sustains us.
Exactly, the economy was born in a world where nature seemed unfathomable. So, it's not aymore. And so, we must change the way we run economies.
Agreed, sometimes the evident answer is the right one.

Thank you. The number of examples where investing into nature is attractive will - frankly - skyrocket.
Brilliant , terrifying and sometimes amusing talk from someone with such a wealth of experience. Great to see solutions in nature / fintech!!
His point about how we never reinvest in nature is so true. We’re always taking, but we rarely think about putting anything back. That mindset definitely needs to change!
The mention of using bioacoustics and sensors to create a nature capital account is so high-tech. It's amazing how far technology has come.

I love the personal touch with the story about your grandfather. It really highlights how wealth can be so personal and unique.
We are all the result of what others have planted in us.
I totally agree with him that we’re in this weird moment of tension. You can feel it everywhere, like people know something has to change, but no one’s quite sure how to make it happen yet.
This guy is so smart, I don't know what I just watched.
Pretty spot on what he says about how we're plundering nature and never reinvesting in it. Definitely needs to change.

If it helps efforts for saving our planet then I'm all for it 💚💚

The point about our current financial system needing to grow exponentially is spot on. It's unsustainable and needs to change.
Matching exponential expecatations to a linear system is just not a very good idea. So let's change it.
Interesting comparison of historical conceptions of wealth. It really shows how subjective and culturally dependent the idea of wealth is.
My favorite: Inaam "Enough to share".
Oh boy him saying wealth for him as a boy was time spent with his grandfather 😭😭 I felt the same way about my grandmother.
This is so cool to think about! It's (hopefully) only a matter of time before the collapse of capitalism and we need a new type of monetary system to take its place

This is an amazing visions for the future, and something I sincerely hope gains traction!
Let go beyond hoping. Let's work for it.
The idea that we're living through a state shift in geology and climate is both scary and motivating. We need to act fast.
We are all stuck with our own narrow horizon and human experience. let's zoom out.
I had no idea we were losing species at a rate faster than some mass extinctions. That's a huge wake-up call.
What he says around the 10:00 mark really drives home why a capitalist society is unsustainable, constant growth just isn't possible forever
Improvement, personal advancement, a braoder perspective are always possible. Let's call them growth.
It's frustrating that the financial incentives are still set up to reward degradation rather than preservation of nature.
Financial incentive are - unlike gravity - a human invention. We can change them any day.
This guy chose the biggest problem he could think of, Jordan Peterson would be proud.
I so feel wealth is out of the reach now oif at least 90% of the world.
