One of the most surprising ideas from my conversation with Rick Rubin is how he thinks about himself:

“I think of myself as a researcher.”

“I have a fanatical devotion to finding the best version of everything I’m interested in.”

“Anything I'm interested in I want to know everything about it.”

“I'll go on forever going deeper and deeper and deeper into a topic.”

“What I do most of the time is research. I’m curious.”

Imam Tawhidi: "When I was an extremist, Islamist, fundamentalist, I would only vote left. I saw them as very stupid. I would fear the conservatives, because they come with principle. That is not someone they can brainwash, but the left they have no values and no principles to begin with.

I dare you to find one Islamic extremist that votes for Donald Trump. They would never do it."

Any return to ice age conditions could trigger a crisis unmatched in all human history.

Earth is still technically in an ice age and average global temperatures of around 15°C degrees are still much lower than the long-term global average of 16°C to 18°C A global warming scare has been running for 40 years, yet 10% of the world's total land area is still covered by glacial ice.

From a human perspective, the combined land area of every town and city on earth is still only 3% of the total.

Ice covers an area of 15 million square kilometers (5.8 million square miles), roughly a third of its full extent during the peak of the Last Glacial Maximum (26,000 to 19,000 years ago). This was the most recent time in Earth's history when global ice sheets were at their greatest extent.

The Antarctic ice sheet is still the largest and thickest ice formation on Earth by far, reaching up to 4.8 kilometres (about 3 miles) in depth. It holds 90% of the world's ice by volume & accounts for around 85% of total global glacial ice cover. Antarctica spans roughly 14 million square kilometers (5.4 million square miles) and covers about 8.3% of the total land surface.

Land area is only 28% of earth's surface. The oceans cover 72% to an average depth of 2.3 miles, forests cover 31% and deserts 33%. The oceans contain 86% of the global carbon reservoir and 91% of all retained heat energy; by contrast, the atmosphere holds a mere 1 to 2% of each.

The past 40 years has featured a global warming campaign raising fears of an impending climate crisis, chiefly based on forecasts of soaring temperatures and a global climate crisis. However, the fact remains that the Earth is still technically in an ice age, with ice cover at both poles all year round. We still live in the Quaternary Glaciation, which has lasted 2.58 million years.

The Quaternary Glaciation is a more severely cold extension of the Late Cenozoic Ice Age, which has lasted for 34 million years, since the time of the original glaciation of Antarctica. The chief causes were due to orbital anomalies (the Milankovitch cycles), the isolation of the Antarctic continent when Australia and South America shifted northward, as part of global tectonic changes.

The last great ice age that was similar to today was the Karoo Ice Age (also known as the Late Paleozoic Icehouse), spanning approximately 360 to 260 million years. This is one of the five major ice ages in Earth's history.

All modern human societies and every meaningful invention has occurred during the current Holocene warm interglacial period, beginning 11,700 years ago. The previous warm interglacial was the Eemian (130,000 to 115,000 years ago). Temperatures in the Eemian were also 2°C warmer than today and African megafauna and crocodiles lived in the Thames valley.

The generally accepted average extent of ice age interglacials is around 15,000 years.

So perhaps we should be considering our next move if the next glaciation comes early.

Wealth used to follow geography, it then shifted to the best education. Now? It follows curiosity. The most curious person in any room is the most valuable person in any room.
