We have built our education systems on the model of fast food.

We didn't do this by actually writing code, like you do in a computer.

And the problem with it is, I think we are setting ourselves up for a kind of disaster like the disaster we had in the financial system, where we take a system that's basically built on trust, was basically built for a smaller scale system, and we've kind of expanded it way beyond the limits of how it was meant to operate.

Well that system is, I think, probably the system that kept us alive to this point, given our human tendencies.

And some of those we wanted to transfer to the icons in our system.

We actually have the technology and systems.

We're dealing with living systems we're dealing with systems that evolve.

But unfortunately, we need this system in part.

And the legacy of that is a system that we were designing an entirely sealed system to grow plants to grow on Mars.

We can reform our electoral systems.

What we do is actually put a standard HVAC filter on the top of that.

This is a systemic risk, systemic shock.

We have to invest in persistence, in the ability of social systems and ecological systems to withstand shocks and still remain in that desired cup.

The globalization of communications systems, trading systems and political systems are what we call quot top down globalization quot .

And also they've made us dependent on systems that only they can deliver, that, as we've seen, are unsustainable.

And we delivered the world's first hypertext system.

That's one of the themes that Sylvia reminds us about understand this ocean of ours, this basic life support system, the dominant life support system on the planet.

Systems like the ones that we were creating on the fly could exist ahead of time.

And we'll add Gapminder's amazing graphics to the front end.

All of it, our food system.

It's what we call a system.

Just this last month it was deployed by Al Jazeera in Gaza.

You hook these up in this case, to the virtual muscles of that two legged creature here and hope that it does something interesting.

What we've found is that mechanically ventilated air looks like humans.

We live on a human dominated planet, putting unprecedented pressure on the systems on Earth.

The problem is, we created a system where we eliminated the right to have good values.

But then, running in parallel to that is a second system that we've discovered, that's generic.

VMS Virtual Memory System (operating system on VAX computers)

This is a backup system for world agriculture.

We need better surveillance.

We have much cleverer irrigation.

That's what makes our system work.

We don't have a working system here yet.

As natural ecosystems represent the most crucial quot life support quot systems of our planet, adaptive technologies for the protection of the supportive functions of natural ecosystems could be considered wherever relevant in each of the five priority areas listed above.

And just like Brunel, by focusing on systems, we can have a bigger impact.

And Freud in part reflects the anatomy of the human emotion system which is that we have both a positive and a negative system, and our negative system is extremely sensitive.

So we're spending less than 5 dollars an hour on the educational system.

And we are bequeathing to the developing world school systems that they will now spend a century trying to reform.

We're talking about entire systems.

You'd be surprised. We installed a new sprinkler system, fire escapes.

We know more about mobile operating systems, but what we really need is a moral operating system.

Well we're now entering the era of systems medicine, or systems biology, where we can start to integrate all of this information.

I've clipped them to the palm and the back of your hand... to pick up the electrical changes in the nervous system.

We can start to see that system.

Not all of us were satisfied with the system.
