[Vision2020] Professor Albert Bartlett on exponential growth

[Kenneth Marcy]

In view of the recent discussion about Jimmy Carter, the following video 
returned to mind.

Professor Albert Bartlett gave many times a lecture on the arithmetic of 
exponential growth.  One rendition of the lecture was captured and 
posted to YouTube in two formats: 1) a series of eight videos comprising 
the entire lecture, and 2 ) the entire lecture as one video.  The title 
of the Professor Bartlett's lecture is Arithmetic, Population, and 
Energy, but it is posted to YouTube with the title The Most Important 
Video You'll Every See.

Here is a link to the first of eight parts:
