The solution to climate change has to go through removing gigaton of CO2 that are already in the atmosphere. We clearly overshot. Now we have to not just reduce what we emit, but remove what we have already emitted. We need to remove gigatons of CO2. A gigaton is 2 billion with B.S. and B.O.I. tons of CO2. An activity of this level requires a lot of coordination and a lot of resources to say the least. Graciela Cicilniski. I am currently a professor of economics and mathematics at Columbia University and the CEO and co-founder of Global Thermostat. I was the creator of the carbon market that is the first time there is an international agreement ever based on the creation of a new type of market, a market for trading global public goods. I believe those are the markets of the future. We need to first of all limit emissions and then we need to change values so that we care for what matters. First of all, survival. To survive you need to breathe clean air, to drink water and to eat food. Both the air, the water and the food are all being destroyed by the human species, clean air, etc. So we need to change our values. Those extremely important survival areas, food, water, air, we need them for survival. They have no economic value, no value.  And since toilet paper has a market value, the economy improves. In the process of destroying our ability to clean the atmosphere. So the same thing is true about clean water and the same thing is true about food availability.  And that seems crazy, but it's true. So the key thing of the carbon market was to change the system of values which markets define. And you do it by coincidentally limiting emissions of CO2 which is exactly what's needed to prevent, at that point, climate change. That was 1997. Fast forward. The carbon market of the Kyoto Protocol that I designed and I wrote into the protocol and I helped negotiate that became the centerpiece of Kyoto. Became international law in 2005. The purpose explicitly was to decrease the global emissions by about 20% by the period of time that was decided. The period of time ended 2020. Did we succeed? Yes, we succeeded. And this is a shock for most people to hear. Because in the year 2020 became widely known that the European Union emission trading system which is the carbon market of the Kyoto Protocol and which encompasses 27 nations, 450 million people, and was the embodiment of the carbon market that I wrote in 1997 and became law in 2005 and still there. Well, that market did decrease by 20, even above 20%, the emissions of all the nations in that market in the European Union. So it succeeded. It did exactly what it was meant to do and it's now accepted. So if we had, instead of just doing this at the European Union than this globally, we would have solved climate change. So we did solve climate change. We did. But it was in a subset of humankind, a substantial subset, because the European Union is huge. And it's now larger, over 30% of humankind uses carbon markets now. And so that was a very fortunate and very precise thing to do. It reduced global emissions. It succeeded to do so in the time scale that was expected for the nations that adopted it in the European Union emission trading system. And it gave a new type of economics, an economics in which there is values. There are market values for the global public goods of clean air, clean water and food. So it was an enormous success. And right now, even in Chicago, there are some colleagues that are proposing solutions to climate change based on the carbon market. They call it carbon credits, which is fine. The carbon credits now are changing the value system. They mean that clean is better, more valuable, and that dirty is less valuable. In fact, it's a burden. And using the valuable property of markets, the carbon market did succeed. And this is accepted widely now. For example, you can look at Physics Today, which is a magazine read by physicists all over the world. In December 2019, they had an article on this topic of the carbon market. And they said what I told you, that the carbon market had succeeded from 2005 to 2020, 15 years to drop emissions, as it was intended to do, by 20% below the 2005 level. If that had happened globally, we wouldn't be talking about climate change anymore. So all we have to do now is to extend that, to look at that model that was established and was successful for a policy, a market-based policy, an innovative form of economics, because it's valuing global public goods, which we usually don't value, and develop markets for that. So we have a solution. The problem is that for all this period, the nations that did not accept the carbon market continue increasing emissions. And so now it's not sufficient to lower emissions by 20% of the base year. Now we have to remove that legacy carbon that we emitted. So in the carbon market, the carbon credits give you a value for reducing emissions. Interestingly enough, the European Union emission trading system last week defined a new type of carbon credit that measure and compensate for the removal of carbon, which is already in the atmosphere, not just the reduction of emissions, but the removal. So we have the tools. It's possible to do it. I was the United States lead author in the IPCC in the year in which the IPCC was awarded the Nobel Prize with Al Gore. The IPCC is the scientific authority globally. It's made of scientists from all over the world, and what they say counts. And now they are saying in a report published in the year 2018 that it doesn't suffice anymore to reduce emissions or to limit emissions. Now we have to actually physically remove the CO2, which I call the legacy CO2, that is already in the atmosphere. And that is necessary now, insufficient as it turns out, because we now have the right technologies. In addition to the IPCC, the United States National Academy of Sciences also published a report the same year, 2018, saying what I told you. So I'm not telling you anything new or anything that is unique to me. This is well known. I mean, we are not living in a government dictatorship that can move enormous amount of money and make decisions in this direction, unless there is also an understanding of what we're doing and why we're doing it. The perfect example is what happened with the pandemic and the issue of vaccines. It took trillions of dollars. And yes, the government can do that. But it will be defeated in the case of carbon emissions. If the government was doing this and the private sector was continuing to emit, so you would need to reduce emissions and you need to remove the CO2 that is already there. So you will say, what do you need? The government or the private sector?  I mean, why limit yourself like that? What do you mean? Is it private or public? Hey, don't have time for that, okay? Every possible way, both, okay? So the use of market has a private flavor to it. But the market of the Kyoto Protocol, for example, was created with 160 nations putting limits on what they could emit. Otherwise, there is no market without those limits. You need the government for certain purposes. The government, to a certain extent, is going to give guidelines of where we're trying to go. Does the market give guidelines? No.  It's a car. It's like a car. It takes you there. It's very efficient to go there, but it doesn't tell you where you want to go. So in a way, governments are social organizations based on voting in democracies and they will tell you where we want to go. So the government of the 160 nations voted they wanted to reduce emissions. But then how do you get there can be much better than by the private sector and markets are very important for that. And the same thing is true now. So you need both support from the government and you need a private activity and everybody to be involved. Let me give you an example. If you look at the success or the relative success of the housing market in the world, if you look at the government of Margaret Thatcher, which was a conservative government, what they did is they saw that there is a financial instrument, which is the mortgage that was invented so by backing up the loan with the asset, which is the house, they created an instrument that people have access to and it really had a huge effect on the availability of housing, which is very important for human welfare. And that was a conservative government. What happened after that in many places is the creation of institutions in which the government was buying some of the mortgages from the banks and Freddie Mac, Ginny May. So while the trading is private through markets, the government can participate in markets and create more liquidity. That was the purpose of those institutions. You can do the same here. I'm not saying Freddie Mac or Ginny May. I'm saying the government can create liquidity and the instruments that are needed for people to remove CO2. They are called off-takes. Instead of developing the mortgage market, my proposal is to develop the off-take markets, the off-takes instead of providing loans that are based on houses as the asset, like mortgages. You can do the same thing with off-takes. And then the result of that is providing enormous ability for people to participate in the market, bring a lot of liquidity and remove CO2. How would that work? You need investment so those projects can produce all the CO2 and sell it, people making money. The same way that people can make money from purchasing homes from the uses of mortgage, every person or every firm in the world who buys CO2 uses an instrument called an off-take to do so. I didn't invent that. This is a fact. So what we need is that type of market, the market for offsets to be a moving market, like Margaret Thatcher made a market for mortgages, a moving market. And that market is a private market and the mortgage back securities were super duper private and involved trillions, as you know. But it uses liquidity that the government can create. So everything I'm telling you shows that there is a fantastic business opportunity here, which is similar to the mortgages and mortgage back securities from the point of view of finance, liquidity and human needs. But instead of being the human needs of a home, which is an important human need, human needs of a clean and stable climate, clean atmosphere, stable climate. And that human need is to resolve climate change. It can be done. And we do have the technology to do this. Is it perfect? No, it's not perfect. It's getting cheaper and better all the time. And it removes CO2 directly from air. The question is how to bring resources so that can happen. We can decrease emissions, which is a must. And at the same time, reduce what's already there in the atmosphere now. So the way to do that is through these off-takes markets that I explained, and it works like this. Every nation in the 160 nations in the Kyoto Protocol commits to a limit on emissions. Those nations that go above their limit have to buy permits or credits from those that are below. So the ones that are over-emitting have to pay. The ones that are under-emitting, this way the under-emitters get richer because they are cleaner and the over-emitters have to pay them because they are producing a public bad. Out of that emerges the price and that's the carbon market. That's it. And that's what I actually wrote in December 1997 at the request of the European Union in the creation of the carbon market. But now what you need to do is something different. Because that was started from every country having a limit on what they could emit. And then if they go above, they have to pay. If they are below, they can't be paid. It's not anymore the point of limiting emissions. Now we have to remove emissions. So that means that every nation will be given as part of the agreement the amount of CO2 reduction they are willing to do. And if they commit to those, using the same concept of the carbon market, but not for reduction, for removal will solve the problem. Now you will say, well, that sounds very nice, but who is going to agree to do that? No country will agree to do that, right? Because they will have to pay enormously unless they remove the carbon from the atmosphere. So my article in Time Magazine offers a solution to that. Instead of asking 195 nations to agree to remove CO2, and I told you we had to remove gigatons, how many? Then 20 gigatons in the next 10 years, okay? Or every year. So how do we achieve that? And you get countries to agree not to remove CO2, but to remove CO2 provided that they have the technology to do so profitably. So it is a conditional. It's like, let's say the United States won't have to remove 10 gigatons. It will have to remove 10 gigatons provided that it has the technology to remove it and make money in the process. If it doesn't have the technology, it doesn't have to do it. This way you can achieve every nation in the world to agree to that. The developing nations not only should have the technology to be able to do it profitably, but they should have the funding to do that. So if they have the funding and they have the technology to do this profitably, they promise to do it. Well, what happens is once you have 195 nations all agreeing to that, if you have the technology and having the funding to do it, then it locks in because the technology exists. And all we have to do is get the money. And the money is not for spending it. The money is to make money. It's investment for profitable operations. So this is the solution and that's what we should be doing right now at the international level. And if you say, well, let's not be so demanding, let's do it first at home, I say to you, yes, by all means, everything you can do is useful, but you can't do it at home because this is a global problem. And if the United States decreases its emissions by 50, 70, 80 percent, but Africa keeps on burning its coal, we still have climate change because it's a global issue. And the atmosphere concentration of CO2 is a global public good, it's the same everywhere. So you need to have, whether you like it or not, you need to have a global agreement. And the agreement I told you will do the job because we do have a technology that is profitable in the production and sale of CO2. So that's where the funding and the creation of these securities, which are like mortgages that bring money to invest in this area, is critical to the solution of this problem.


Welcome back. The Financial Times has ridiculed the administration of President Mohammed Buhari in its latest publication. It noted that Najir has sleepwalked close to disaster under him. In the article titled, What is Najir's Government for, David Pele and Yasser accused Buhari of not finding the solutions to the country's economic quagmire, anti-curity and electoral malpractices haven't spent two terms. Now, reactant Garbashir Hovia, his Twitter account, wrote a letter to the editor of Financial Times seeking to correct the point highlighted in the article. He noted that Boko Haram now controls no territory. Joining us to discuss is Ife Wano, a security expert and Sherwin Schubertter, a public affairs analyst. Many thanks for joining us, gentlemen, on this particular discuss. Thank you for having us. All right. The Financial Times came out with some very mind-boggling report about the nation's economy, the nation's security and, of course, all that have been happening with President Mohammed Buhari's administration in the past, and two failures. Let me just quote something. I'll start with you, Sherwin. David Pullin said in his words, Buhari has overseen two terms of economic slump, rising debt and the calamitous increase in kidnapping and banditry. The one thing you might have thought a former general could control, that's about the banditry and kidnapping. Now, so basically, let's talk about the economic slumber. You followed the economy over time. How would you say the nation's economy has fed on the President's Mohammed Buhari in there? Two headers. Because the Financial Times seem to think that the economy is slumping and our debts are just rising momentously. Yeah. It's very, very hard to fault the position of the Financial Times, simply because if you look at the realities on ground, compared the various indicators from when this administration came on board in 2015 to now, you find that the truth of the matter is that it's not been cherry. All of the indicators have almost all, not all, but almost all of the indicators have been pointing downwards. Whether you want to talk about GDP growth rates, unemployment rates, inflation rates, the exchange rates, so if you just take all of those economic indices, those key economic indicators, you find that it's been a downward trend. Of course, to ensure that one is balanced and there's a bit of perspective to all of that, we must recommend the fact that there is a global context to those events. First of all, because we have an economy that is dependent on a government that relies on revenues from oil, any time that oil prices smizes, we catch all sorts of diseases as a country. And that's what happened to our GDP when we went into recession early 2015 into 2016. And with the coming of COVID-19 and the global recession, we also went into a recession. So that is a context to put all of this under. However, the point to note is that yes, those external factors were significant contributing factors. I don't know the repeat of the word. But government duty would have been to come up with policies that would have mitigated the impact of those external factors to ensure that it didn't hit us as hard as it did. So in that regard, the government failed very, very carefully. And again, it must be said that it's been seven years. It's been seven years. Time does tend to fly by when things are interesting. It's been seven years. And I find it difficult to find any kind of argument that would support the inability of any government at all to make fundamental changes. If they are serious and they have the will to the structure of the economy, to the structure of the political system and all of that to ensure that the changes that need to be made can be made. So this government has been just like the financial crisis. It's been slipping. Even at a point, President Wary even referred to himself as Baba Goslo and it seemed to have taken it as a compliment. I don't understand. The Nigeria situation is a situation where speed, urgency and the precise nimble decision making is required. But every decision gets delayed by six months, by one year and nobody is waiting. Time is not waiting. The rest of the world is not waiting. The economy is not waiting. Things are getting worse. So in that regard, this administration has not gone well at all. All right. Over now to you, Aifee. The financial time seems to have a bit of some expectations of the President who haven't been in the military for some time and they thought that he should have been able to tackle the issues of kidnapping and ban the tree knowing that he was a former general. But then again, the President came out in response that Boko Haram is not in control of any particular territory. Let's talk security now, Aifee. Judging by what the financial times have said and the President's response, how would you say that or what direction would you say we are headed in terms of security? I think that the financial time is absolutely on point. I think with the thinking with regard to what the expectation of President Wary's government and we all truly have the same perspectives, perception, expectation of President Wary when he became the President in 2015 with not a few people thought that one of the low-hanging foods of the President would be the issue of tackling insecurity head on beginning from police reforms and then reforming and retaking the entire security architecture. What we've had is basically a reactive position by the government of the day before the service teams were shown their way out the terminals were extended which was not constitutional which was not the proper thing to be done and they kept them for over one year after they were supposed to have retired from service or transfigures in service, the President left them. What we have thought because the way security is structured is a case of you give instructions, you take instructions and as the commander-in-chief the police and the entirety of our security apparatus if you like is under the federal and exclusive list so the President, my expectation was that that would have been a low-hanging food first few months, police reforms then the issue of retooling the military and intelligence justice with regards to ensuring that what you have is proactive and unique in the border and do not continue to be reactive to the issues we have for security I think the President missed it, the government missed it security would have been a very strong point and if you recall, very first few months of President Wary's essential to power many people were talking about the President's body language and we find that people, even in the public power sector that just went back to the discourse and what a view people were beginning to say that there was electricity even the policemen who he tattooed were collecting bribes on the streets who were extorted motorists they disappeared for a few days and suddenly when the sort of nothing was coming from the part of the President's he and the commander-in-chief as usual, when it took six months or there about to appoint ministers people now fed up, nothing is going to happen so I think that yes, sometimes the spot on as far as security is concerned that would have been one of the strongest points of this government but unfortunately that has not been a strong point police reforms, if you have law and order sorted almost every online index of development would build on law and order but that's not what we've had we've had a situation where people could no longer go to the farms not east and not west even in the south-west people were scared to go to the farms because you had all manner of criminals even those who were not necessarily full and in heads men people were not cashing in on the franchise to go to stop people and kidnap people from the farms so people could not go then the borders were closed and when you close the borders nothing was being done with regards to the home environment to ensure that there was a good purchasing power and you had the food supply for people what's going to happen in security is going to be the order of the day so I think that the initial times is absolutely spot on this one area that the President should have some strong strength and the strength for me has been lacking we have been basically reactive there's been a fair bit of approach there's one issue we react there's another issue we react rather than act like somebody who has actually wanted to be president at three other times before the time we succeeded so you must have a roadmap you must have a blueprint on how you want to tackle this thing it is not rocket science we see how countries like Georgia and elsewhere are tackling security in the public sector if your number one law and other agency is found to be irresponsible is found to be lackluster every other index that has to do with security would falter and that's what we've had over time so here's Herba Sheo's reactionary position to finish our terms it doesn't distort the facts the facts are there all right thank you you know that was shown to go out people felt it didn't do too much you have come in six years somewhere down the line what are we saying all right Sheo let's talk more the article also took a swipe concerning the way we go about our elections and the monetary monetization in the nations and politics and all of that specifically if I have to read them verbatim it's the familiar candidate to please him that's the president administration mostly recycled old men are already counting their money ahead of a costly electoral marathon it takes an estimated two billion dollars to get a president elected those who pay will expect to be paid back does this really heat home Sheo I mean look obviously the person that wrote this article knows Nigeria well enough to heat home at the key points that are affecting us and you know we mustn't miss a very critical point that was made by that article which is that so you sort of made the point in passing and then went into that section that you read just now you know which is that the problem of Nigeria is not entirely the problem of this particular president but the problem of a system so and the article went as far as to say you know I mean if you change this president and whoever is coming up on board so even if it's you know say the current vice president for example who perhaps has the good will of a lot of people and the trust of a lot of people you know I probably still wouldn't do much better because the system itself needs to be tackled and you know that then speaks to some of the issues that you raised you know the nature of elections the monetization of the same and the fact that you can't win any meaningful office in this country without spending tens, hundreds and you know sometimes tens, hundreds of millions and sometimes billions so then you come on board and of course you know when you come on board you want to regroup your investment in quotes you know so absolutely the article is bottom and now the point that has to be made is whoever comes on board after this administration leaves must not make the same mistake that President Buhari made President Buhari started failing when within the first one year in office he didn't tackle the fundamental reforms that must be tackled if this country is to do well you know so a president that means to change the country the way they sang the chain mantra you know at that time must address the civil service you must reform the civil service and make it efficient and unblocked if you like you must reform the police you must reform the judiciary you must deal with constitutional problems that we have any serious president that comes on board and fails to tackle those things in the first one and a half years maximum two years will fail it's guaranteed you know so it will be a degree of failure rather than whether they can succeed or not you know and I think that's the point that that article was making so let's say you get a Yemio Shibago or a professor Kisly Mogadu that is so popular with a lot of people or maybe a Patutomi that is very erudite and all of that if they fail to make those changes those fundamental reforms and changes in the first few years or in the first few months of the administration they will fail because the system is rigged and designed to ensure that the process of governance is ineffective so that people can live off the rent that is created by the capture of state infrastructure by the capture of the entire governance system by a certain clique of people who have widely failed from the beginning very quickly because we are almost out of time I just want to read part of the presidency's response and I want you to comment let me just quote the false comprehensive plan to deal with the decades old clashes between nomadic herders and sedentary farmers experienced across the weeds of the Sahel has been introduced pilot ranches are reducing the competition for water and land that drove past tensions banditry grew out of such clashes criminal gangs took advantage of the instability flush with guns that flooded the region following the western trigger implosion of Libya the situation is grave yet as with other challenges it's one that the government would face down that's what the statement added basically the president was trying to explain how far it has come with the nomadic herders issues that we've had in the country would you really say that we actually are seeing them or it is who were yet in the country absolutely not absolutely you recall that at some point in time many people other than in the northwest and not east of the country believed that the issue of herders farmers clashes gain front burner position and prominence because of the perceived latent support of the president being himself an ethnic fuller need now this is the president that would have himself been at the best position to tackle the situation and solve it for instance you are aware that yes the certification climate change is causing people to come down to graze their cattle but this is 21st century Argentina is believed to be the highest exporter of beef so do they have nomadic farming what I would have expected the president to do you don't of course just show down the system entirely but of course you let them know this cannot continue indefinitely so you give them oratorial you say within a year for instance all nomadic grazing of cattle in the country must stop and the federal government will partner with states, local government and other agencies to support creation of ranches across the country in different zones and not the issue of water resources bill and then ruga and what a view and not the issue of excusing remember when people were killed in Binway and the response of the presidential spokesman Mr. Femme Adeshinow to the effect that it is better to be alive and if you have to leave your land leave your lands and something of that effect and that was very uncalled for created the impression that the government of the day was giving tacit support to the Maraudi headsmen that is one issue that we would have solved because if we had done the proper thing even the full landing it couldn't have meant anything negative for us right thank you so much Eiffy and of course Shergou Shibuta that's as much as we can take we are completely out of time Eiffy A1 is a security expert Shergou Shibuta is a public affairs analyst and of course an economist many thanks gentlemen for sharing your thoughts on this particular issue with us tonight we do appreciate it you're welcome, thank you pleasure and now to Randolph we'll let you know that some Nigerians have to say about the government seriousness in the fight against insecurity my name is Justin plus politics returned again so stay with us the case of insecurity is not something that can just be undue at once like that it's a complicated matter and it's obvious that the president is making some efforts and it is not something that can just be done at once so let us believe that some of the efforts that have been made we yield fruit but it's obvious that efforts have been made so it's just left to different agencies to ensure that they they had towards they are doing because it's becoming more complicated almost every day I don't think so, why the reason being this because this is not the beginning and it's not this thing has not started today it has been starting for very long time we've been clamoring on them too hoping now they've not been able to do anything so I don't think it's government issues but it's only got intervention that can really help us out in this case well with the look of things I'm not sure the government is ready or they got a president because I expect them to have put a lot of measures in place at the moment of insecurity and possibly to put people's mind at rest because people are agitated you know we want to do Christmas a new year with peace of mind with our family you understand but many people don't want to travel like me for example I just want to stay in one place of course I think it's doing its best I mean what can one do you have your security operatives they are the people that will have to go and confront whoever is creating problems the president needs to give his support provide whatever they need I think he's trying his best it's like the president is just ignoring the insecurity in Nigeria because every day you hear new news like in different states of something something happening I don't think the president is ready to really tackle the issue as of now it's more like something that the government is just ignoring and we itself in this place we are kind of in like Lagos that's what I mean we are kind of shot off from the news we don't even know much of what is going on but when you really take a look at other people that are in other states like Shokoto, Josa you get to see the reality of things that are going on in Nigeria and it's not a good thing


Next question is from Scotty's hobbies. What are your top two current hobbies top two current hobbies? He's really into hobbies doesn't I mean does anything count because I feel like a hobby is like something that people accept That's a hobby.  What do you mean by that collecting stamps? Yeah, you know like I could see you doing that I did when I was a kid. Yeah, of course I think I think they're I think they're leaning because they're saying current right now like because of COVID-19 Are there certain things that like you're getting into or you're doing that's like kind of I admitted I was puzzling quite a bit Are you still puzzling I'm still puzzling but you know the problem is you can't order any like they're all off the shelves Everybody had the same idea. No way. Yeah, they're like I'm stuck at home. I got nothing to do So I haven't been able to get any new ones that are they're awesome So I think there's business potential there So how well on how much time do you do this like how like what do you do?  And so I'm sort of at the table Puzzling while they have questions so I can answer their questions and kind of help them through maybe some trouble shooting of What they need to be doing and then I'm just like, you know hunting for all these like, you know shapes and things I don't know dude. There's some zen about it.  Yeah, I just did for me like I Have I've like two different operating You know gears and one of them is like, okay, I'm on let's go go go and then the other one is like don't come near me Yeah, yeah, and so I definitely that used to be my go-to for everything now. I'm like, okay I need to be on more. So we drove Justin the puzzle He's not lying either because the last two times we've been in Tahoe that's been his thing I know I've seen him do it hours over there. I know what do you know? What is it? Which one are you doing now? Is it like is it cats? Is it like I don't know You know what? No, it's like it's coke bottles. So there's all these like old nostalgic coke Coca-Cola like Anyway marketing stuff material, so I'm putting it all together I'm like halfway through right now, but I do that and then I also I jam on my guitar. That's that's always been Another big hobby of mine is to just tinker away and and I'm not and I haven't really been one to learn songs cuz I don't know I just I guess I'm I'm just rogue like that, but I've always tried to create my own songs and like write my own you know To work on because I just get I feel inspired sometimes I just hear hear it in my head and I just go try and figure it out But I've lately I've been learning a lot of everybody else's songs Stone Temple Pilots, you know sublime like beetles And so I've been playing those for the kids and of course Everybody likes that cuz it's like they know the song already. Yeah, you know, and I was like, oh dad That's way that one again. That's way better than the other one. Yeah I'm like dude nobody likes my real songs.  He was like a feral child.    He found his dad's puzzle porn stash There's such a thing. Yes. Yes. We found my head just no no There was a box of puzzle pieces and I guess he'd never paid attention But one day I went we're at school and he's like dude Dude, my dad's got a puzzle. That's naked ladies, you know, because that's what you should say when you're 6th grade I remember this before the internet. So I went to it like one. Oh, there's a nipple. Yes I went to his house and we go through this box of like a thousand pieces He's like a thousand pieces like a half hour, bro, and we're looking for the piece with this dirt or is this bush?  Well, that makes sense You know I I feel bad because I don't have a really good answer for this and I and I typically do have some hobbies I'm doing if it's basketball or listening to music or I can geek out on things But right now the two main things that I think consume my time And it's boring for people to probably hear one of those is our business I mean, I look at our business as a hobby, too Like it's I love it that much that I and I know Doug can relate to this course He's gonna give an answer. Well, and I know Doug can relate to this because Doug will be up at the same crazy hours I am and he's listening to similar audiobooks and you're like Rain Man with the numbers And I like that stuff it's and it's therapeutic for me So I I don't know why that is but I love to look at analytics And I like to look at other businesses and compare numbers and it just for some weird reason that is Like a hobby and very and I don't feel like oh, I'm working So I was I'm not searching for a badge of honor of like I work for fucking 20 hours a day No, I like it's a hobby for me like I really love to do it when I find downtime When I'm not with max, this is the type of stuff that I'm doing right now I just enjoy it that much and then the other thing that that I don't know if it is Considered like a hobby, but you know, I'm really trying to Like I want to make sure that I have like these Really cool things that I can look back 10 15 years with with my son And so, you know, I spent a lot I actually spend quite a bit of time like the way I put together his Instagram I I do I have a little camcorder and I'm videoing him and I'm and I'm actually like Timing it like separate like so that you can see phases. Oh congratulations by the way. He's crawling. I saw that video That's so great, dude. He had so and you guys obviously know this because you have kids But it was so trippy to me. So yeah, we just had this crazy two weeks Run with him where he had Rosella. He had a 104 fever He was teething he had a rash and he had an ear infection and also was growing through a growth spurt like all in 14 days And so it was like it was literally a night. I look at Katrina. I was like no way we're having another one Like no, there's nothing you could say right now that could convince me to have that was the storm Oh, it was and just every day I was like praying for my poor son to feel better because he's really a happy baby and he and for the most part I don't think there's such thing as an easy child But he was he's he's relatively easy in comparison to what I see a lot of people go through and the only time He's hard is if he's not feeling well And so my heart breaks to watch him go through this then he just a couple days ago like three days ago I felt like if he kind of made it through all of it like it's all Long gone and none of it's really bother him and it he he went from wearing You know 12 month old to 18 month old clothes He's super strong and wrestling back with me like I can feel him fighting against me and resisting me He started crawling his communication is like triple what it was in 48 hours Yeah, it was the weirdest thing ever, but so cool like he's so he's so fun right now. We could still do that Right make make leaps like that. I wish yeah, but that's so that's it That's how by the way that that documentary on Netflix explain that kids don't grow consistently Yeah, they don't grow they don't grow and then all of a sudden boom They grow like within a matter of a day or two and I totally felt like I I saw one of those or felt one of those massive leaps for him But I mean so he's a lot of my hobby right now like I'm really I'm really enjoying being a father I'm really enjoying and I'm trying to be very mindful of I didn't have a father and so I'm trying to think about all the things that I missed out on and I wanted like I feel like this is my gift Right, I get to have this kid and now I get to relive with him all the things that I wish I had some constantly I think of that stuff like I don't have any footage or photos or I would love to look back at him and I Not I don't have any of that right and so that's a lot of my mind And I'm always trying to be I'm not very organized. I'm trying to be more organized about it So and I know that it'll pay off You know ten years from now when I get to look back at it with him. So that's kind of a hobby from that's good That's awesome. Yeah, I'll take that. Yeah, so I feed starving children when I Gonna one up your You know my now step it up the number one hobby that I have is the one that I've had since I was 14 since the day I first lifted weights I fell in love with the way it felt and You guys know this I just I never stop. I love it. I absolutely love it It's it's my favorite thing in the world to do love the way it feels like the time I spend either by myself or working out with someone else. It doesn't matter what gym I'm in it could be a hotel could be in my garage. It could be anywhere. I guess the only one that does other things Yeah, I love it. I love it. And so that's that's always gonna be my number one hobby And then this the second thing is again something that I've enjoyed for a long time Which is I love going on social media and reading other experts talk about subjects that I want to learn about It's one of the most it's one of the most effective Learning tools that I've ever stumbled across and if you're listening right now, so it's really really cool. So what you do? Okay, you go on Facebook Facebook's a great place to do this Yes, you you ask for an invitation to a group whatever group you want to learn from so neuroscience is one right? So you type in the search, you know bar neuroscience You find some groups that have you know 500 people a thousand people whatever ask for an invitation Sometimes I let you in right away and now you're in this group and most of the people in the group are People who are either PhDs or students or neuroscientists and then there's a small group of people that are just interested in the subject But the vast majority of people in there are experts on that subject now. Why is this cool? Well, they post new and upcoming studies and articles before they become mainstream news or ones that don't even become mainstream news But that's not the cool part the cool part is they'll post an article and then the way this is how I learn I'll read the article really cool But then I read the comments and I read these scientists and doctors or whoever Debating and discussion discussing what happened in the article. There's I have there's nothing that I found that gets you to learn Better and faster because what I get from that is an education that's coming from other experts who know way more than I do Debating and discussing points within the article that I never would have even noticed where they're breaking down the the study controls They're talking about well that doesn't apply because this other study showed this and well What about that and it's like really really fascinating every once in a while when I feel confident I'll throw in a challenging statement not because I want to challenge somebody But because I want to get their reply to see how they'll reply to a question that I have and it's just Something that I've done now for a while. I love I love doing it I just want to point out that's the same shit that I just said. I mean, it's just a different It's just a different part of our business.  No, I you know, I mean, that's what it is It's really cool because I think what what what really why we enjoy what we do so much is because We got to do something that we love to do truly love to do for sure Because let's be honest if if if we were all you know didn't have to work and made tubs of money or whatever We would probably find time to meet with each other at least a couple days a week to sit down and Talk about my pump puzzles coming your way


A little over a year ago the thought came to people that subsequent centennials coming up it would be nice to have a student led project you know to commemorate the 150th anniversary of Purdue. Primarily what we do in EPICS is talk about the engineering design process and so they had to start with what should this even look like. They finally decided that the bell tower would be a good landmark. Basically when I came on as a design lead my first semester I took the project and took it from just an idea to actually figuring out dimensions and measurements and starting to take that idea and make it a reality because that's to me what engineering is all about is taking ideas and actually making them realistic and practical. So they went from originally deciding what it should look like to okay what scale can it be. We kind of joke we want it to be taller than the tallest basketball player on Purdue so we ensured that it's definitely taller than Matt Harbs. More recently what's the details you know how do we get the coins to go into the right spot. The students themselves came up with the ideas of we could add to it actually add sound. So we really wanted to make something super different and an experience that somebody wouldn't normally have when they're just going up to a normal penny press in any other place and since we're Purdue we want to put an engineering spin on it and we want to involve electronics we want to make it look as cool as we possibly can. So we have an entire circuit board that we custom designed to fit everything that we're doing. The way it works is basically we have a penny and it breaks this IR beam here and this controller triggers both lights and sound.  Epic originally stood for engineering projects and community service so we're working with predominantly nonprofit agencies in the Lafayette area but around the world also designing and building projects that help with those organizations mission. In this case it's a little different. We added this to an existing team that had some experience in building and electronics and just said let's build something for Purdue that will help with the Susgrove Sentinel. There were four main images that we decided to select. One was 150th this being a very special year for Purdue we had to do something with that. The rest of these three images we actually decided based off of a couple student polls that we sent out last semester we really wanted the students to have a voice. The most popular ones were the engineering fountain, the Purdue bell tower which also says 150 years and lastly but definitely not least we have one penny that commemorates the 50th moon landing. It's something physical but it's not too big it's not too little it's just a penny. At the same time it's gonna have that design whatever you choose on it and so hopefully it's something maybe you could care on your pocket display on a shelf and just be that little reminder of Purdue. I hope when they walk up to it that they kind of feel like they're standing underneath the bell tower maybe it'll bring them back to their experience at Purdue walking by the bell tower and kind of remind them of their days at school. I think it's all about reminiscing on the past and also reflecting on where you are now how you got here and how Purdue played into that journey. It's only 51 cents to get one probably the cheapest souvenir at Purdue. I think a lot of people enjoy just collecting some.


Today, we're going to do something that I'm very excited about. It's something I've looked forward to a while. I did a video saying I was going to do a video on this a little bit ago. We're going to install GSI Android, linear Joest version of it, onto my Motorola PowerG 2021 Borneo is the code name of it. But this should work on main devices with little differences. So what is GSI? It's not GIS, GIS has to do with mapping. This is GSI, it's generic system image. This is most Android devices since 2019. Basically, I believe it's Android 9 and up. If you have that, there's a good chance that your device is going to be compatible, and you'll be able to install a generic image. So instead of a custom ROM that is designed specifically for your device, you can get a generic Android image that will work on pretty much any device. This is because the firmware for most devices are on partition. So we're just replacing basically the system partition and another partition that verifies the system partition to make sure it knows that we're changing it. I've only done this on the one phone so far, but it should be similar for most phones. Again, you just need to unlock the bootloader. I'm not going over that in this video because that's something that I've gone over before and it's different on each device. But if you have your bootloader unlocked, we're going to go ahead and I'm going to show you my notes here real quick. There'll be a link to these notes in the description. I've done this twice today. I'm very excited that I've been able to do this. So let's go ahead and I'm going to turn the camera so that it's looking at my phone. Okay, as you can see, I have a fresh installed stock ROM. I actually just did a video on doing this and I just finished recording that a couple of minutes ago. So what do we need to do? So first thing I'm going to do is I'm going to reboot into the bootloader. You can run, if you have Android debugging bridge going, you can always use ADB reboot bootloader. Since I haven't even logged in yet, I don't have that set up. I'm going to hold down the power button, press restart, and then hold down the volume button while it's restarting until I get to my bootloader screen. Okay, perfect. So what are we going to need? We are going to need, looking at my notes here, we're going to need this VB meta image. This is basically going to wipe out the VB meta image. From my understanding, that's just an image that basically checks make sure your system partition hasn't been changed, basically. Basically, we're going to use that to disable that feature so that we can flash the new system image and the system will boot and not go. That's not the right image. So let's go ahead and grab that. We'll just use this W get command and we will download that. There we go. It's very small, doesn't take very long at this point. Again, my phone is in the bootloader mode. What I'm going to do is I am now, move this off the screen so I just copy and paste stuff. We're going to use the fast boot. Again, I also assume that you know what fast boot is. It's kind of an advanced tutorial and that you have fast boot installed on your system. It's in your repositories, if not. Fast boot dash dash disable dash verify, dash dash disable dash verification flash and then VB meta and that image. We do that and hopefully everything went well. See, it says finished okay. We downgraded. It says warning, it downgraded. Now, this is the part that kind of tripped me up a little bit, part of this is we're in fast boot mode but we want to go into fast boot D mode. And the way you do that is by saying fast boot while you're already at the bootloader screen, fast boot, reboot, fast boot. So fast boot, reboot, fast boot. It's going to reboot the device and you'll get a different screen here. You'll be in fast boot D mode, which basically, from my understanding, it just gives you some more powerful fast boot commands I guess, stuff that you normally wouldn't want to do because you don't want to mess things up. Now, a lot of tutorials will tell you at this point, one of the things you can do is to try to flash that system image. So where do we get the system image? So, let's going back to our screen here. Again, I'll have links to my notes in the description. There's this URL here, which brings you to this website, which gives you a list of GSI images you can use. And again, these are generic and should run on most Android devices. We can get the Android open source project. We can get one from Google. We have all these other ones. I like Lineage OS. There's two of them here. I just chose the Lineage OS Lite. So we go to that download page and we download that. So when we download that, it's going to be an XZ file. So how do you extract an XZ file? Well, we're going to do XZ, I believe it's dash XF and then you give it the file name. Actually, it's XZ dash D dash V and then the file name of the image. I've already done that. It takes a couple of minutes. It will extract it. Here we have the image file. So we have the image we downloaded to flash the VB meta. And then now we have our image here. Now, going back to my notes, the next thing you might think you would do, and on some systems will work, you'll do use fast boot and give it that image name. So like that. That doesn't work when I do that. Well, let's go ahead and run it and see what happens. Yeah, that's what I was expecting to happen. Just I was expecting it to happen faster. Not enough space to resize partition. Okay, not an issue. We're hurrying fast boot D. What are we going to do? We're going to run this command. Fast boot, delete logic partition product, run that. Then we will do the same thing, but with product underneath underscore A and underscore B. So what's happening is our system partition is on a super partition, which has multiple partitions. And basically we're clearing out partitions we don't need to make space for the system image. One of the things you might want to look into doing is deleting the user data and erasing cache. And if it says it doesn't exist, that's fine. It's a brand new install, so there probably is no cache set up yet. And now that we've done that, we should be able to run that command we tried earlier, which is fast boot, flash, system, lineage, or whatever your image is. We're going to do that and give it a moment here. There we go. And it's going to start. In my particular case, it's split up into 11 different packages. And I'll probably take, I'm going to guess, a little less than the stock image because it's definitely smaller than the stock image. But I'm going to guess, well, let's see, 10 seconds there and there's 11 of them. So we're going to say probably about two minutes. I'm going to pause the video and then we'll come back. Okay, so we're almost there. We're at nine out of 11. So let me explain what's happening. It's sending a part. It's splitting the image into pieces, 11 different pieces. It's sending them, which takes about 10 seconds for each chunk. And then when it gets there, it writes it, which takes about two seconds, it looks like. So we're almost there. And when we're done, the only thing that we're going to do is we're going to run our fast boot dash W command. Here we go. We'll run that fast boot dash W. And that basically does a factory reset. So we did the erase user data and erase cache before. I don't know if initially you need to do that since we're doing that after. And now all we have to do is do our fast boot reboot. And then our phone should restart and it should boot into a generic version of Lineage OS. Again, what does it mean by generic? So when you get Lineage OS, normally you would get it for a set device and it knows about that device and it's customized that device and it only works for that device. If someone made it for your device, that's awesome. If not, you can always do it yourself, but that takes hundreds of gigs of files that you have to download to compile or build, I guess I should say. There's probably some compiling going on. And then it takes hours and hours and hours. From my understanding, I've never done it because once they said you have to download 100 to 300 gigs worth of stuff, I'm like, I'm out. You can see Lineage OS, you got your icon or your load screen going here. And again, as I talked in the last video, if you do a stock ROM from whatever manufacturer, even once you got it booted, there's gonna take at least 10 minutes doing a setup. Look at this, this is already done booting and we should get our screen here. And look, start. Yes, I'm in the United States, date and time, check. I'm normally I log in my wifi, I'm just gonna say skip for now. Next, next, next, or this is set fingerprint stuff. Let's skip that for now. I can choose to skip all this stuff. Protect your phone with a pin, I'm not gonna do that. I don't need to restore any apps. And look, I'm into a working system. Now, as I was saying, this is not specifically built for this device and it will work. And I tell you, I skipped over it. The fingerprint reader does work on my particular device. Some devices, from my understanding, it may not, the wifi does work. The camera clearly works, that we got the front and rear camera or rear and front. And then one thing that I've noticed with this particular device, and again, because it's not built specifically for this phone, different phones will have in different places, my camera is right here and it's like over the words in the corner. There's probably a way to adjust that. But that's the sort of thing you get with a generic image.  So that's it, that's all it took and it's gonna be lighter weight. It's probably gonna run better. There's not all that extra applications on there. Lineage OS is great and now I can install on any device even if it's not officially supported. I haven't really played with this. I just showed you everything. Like I said, I know the wifi works, I know the fingerprint reader works, the cameras work and the wifi works. Other than that, I haven't gotten into it in details but I'm so happy that I got this working. So I've had this phone for a year. I just got a new phone and I always wanted Lineage OS on this old phone but it wasn't officially supported and I didn't feel like building it myself. So now I can, I can do it for my new device as well. What I went through, we didn't install Google apps. There's an option to do that. If you've installed custom ROM, it's basically the same option.  But that's basically it. I thought I would share this again because I came into issues when it came to the super partition on mine and the things I had to do was I had to go into fast boot D mode and then I also had to do that, delete the logic partition. Again, there'll be a link in the description to my notes that you saw earlier in the video. I do hope that you found this useful. Please visit filmsbychrist.com, that's Chris the K and I hope that you found this useful. I hope that this encourages you to try these generic system images because I think this is the best thing to happen to Android, almost ever. So thanks for watching and I hope that you have a great day.


My summer scholarship this year was about how healthcare enables the before-school check completion. The before-school check in New Zealand is the last check of eight well-child care checks and so what we wanted to see was how our health care providers and how mum's relationship with the health care system is helping our Kiwi kids to be attending their before-school checks. The purpose of the before-school check in New Zealand is that it's carried out at four and a half years of age and it's a very comprehensive behavioural and physical check that ideally will pull out any issues that Kiwi kids have and will refer them to appropriate services so that kids are able to maximise their education because they are ideally being sent into schools as healthy young children. I am a third-year medical student and what has always attracted me to medicine really was I love kids, I've always had an interest in pediatrics. Cameron Grant has been supervising this project and this particular summer scholarship really interested me as it enabled me to explore this passion of mine. It was really wonderful working with Jess. We're very, very lucky that the students who come to these summer student ships are very talented young people and already have some great skills but also always willing to learn. Cameron has really helped me to see what research is about and the importance of I guess a team and being collaborative I took part in staff meetings, watched how the team interacted with one another and how they reported back to the supervisor. That was just the most important part of the project for me was seeing those team dynamics and how they play out in research. Growing up in New Zealand has a really robust database so from the Ministry of Health we obtained data on which kids from the Growing Up New Zealand cohort had had the before-school check completed and from there we found that 7% of kids weren't getting this before-school check and what we were interested in is how healthcare had contributed to those 7% of kids not receiving the before-school check. She was very capable of getting a head around the processes involved in the project but also we had some really interesting discussions around what we were finding and what factors we thought might or might not be important. It's great being able to have those conversations with young people and getting a sense that they get it but they understand that there's some real challenges to delivering healthcare in the country and that they can make a contribution to that. What we found was significant, there were multiple factors but what was really interesting was that Māori and Pacific mothers and mothers who were students, their kids were around half as likely to receive a complete before-school check and so later in this year when the Ministry of Health reviews this check that will be a really key piece of information that they will be able to use to improve service delivery among other factors to just really hope that those children are able to receive this check.


Hi, and welcome to your first piano lesson as part of the NCSSM classical piano and guitar course. I'm excited to begin showing you how to play the piano and through this first introductory lesson you'll get some of the basics of the piano and then we'll get right into learning songs pretty quickly. Let's begin by just talking a little bit about the piano keyboard and how you can tell which notes you're playing. If you've ever looked at a piano keyboard before, you'll notice that you have a pattern of two black keys, then three, then two, then three, and so on.  From here we have D, E, F, G, A, C, and D. D dumb diddle, D is in the middle, right between the two black keys. And that always holds true on the piano keyboard. So, you know the names of the keys now. Now we're going to begin to learn a little bit about where your fingers go and how we're thinking about our hands on the keyboard. For the beginning piano music, the note C is going to be the most important note. The first number of songs that we learn will be in the key of C, so we have to find the C on the piano. Now, every piano has a C that is right in the middle of the keyboard. We call that middle C. It's usually very close to the label of the name of the brand of the piano that sits right in the middle of the piano. So we're going to find a middle C and with our right hand, our right thumb is going to land on middle C. And from that, each finger will sit on one adjacent piano key. So the thumb is on C, index finger on D, middle finger on E, ring finger on F, and pinky finger on G. With your left hand, it's going to be very similar, only your left pinky is going to land on C. And it's the C immediately below middle C.  Now, your hands are in the right place. I want you to notice a few things about my hands. First of all, you'll notice that I'm sitting up straight, my shoulders are square. You'll notice that my fingers are curved down to the keys. In fact, I'm using basically the tips of my fingers on the keys. I'm not letting my hands lie flat like this. My wrists are above the keys and I can very easily play individual notes with individual fingers. Now, once we place our fingers on these keys with our right thumb on C and left pinky on C, we're going to basically stay in that position for quite some time. Now, you will notice that there are several exercises on pages 8 and 9 of your book. Those exercises are designed to get you used to playing one finger on each adjacent key. You'll notice that the first line of each exercise is marked R-H, that stands for right hand, and the second line is marked L-H, that stands for left hand. You will play these exercises with your hands alone. You won't play them hands together. So, work on Warm Up, Merrily We Roll Along, and Claire DeLune on pages 8 and 9 of the book. The next concept that we get to after we've learned the names of the notes and where our hands go in the key of C is the concept of playing a chord. Now, to play a chord, you're going to play more than one note at one time with one of your hands. In this case, we're going to play a chord with our left hand, and for several songs, we'll be playing lots of chords with your left hand. This chord is a C major chord, and it includes the notes C, E, and G. So, you'll place your pinky on the C as you have been, your middle finger on the E as you have been, and your thumb on the G. So, this time, you'll play those notes together. Now, if you look at Frejaca, you will see that we now play a right hand melody along with those left hand chords. Let me play Frejaca for you. Now, once you can play Frejaca nice and evenly and steadily, you're ready to move on to the first song assignment.
