How Mushrooms Can Save the World

I saw Paul Stamets on the Science Channel last night talking about how mushrooms could save our planet.
Take a look

i watched it last night because i was bored at the parent's house, i knew it would be on shroomery.org and here.

it's bullshit, wishful thinking, mushrooms won't save our planet. paul stamets has a vested interest in mushrooms, no matter what reality is. "the man" pays paul good and he should stick to psychadelic propoganda.

clean water and nutrient requirements of mushroom cultivation are prohibitive, welcome to 1978.

algae has better potential because water and nutrients are reusable. see "batchwise vs continuous engineer principles", welcome to 1940.

thanks for the youtube, the iphone only plays youtube

It was interesting but I started drifting off as he spoke, about midway. I guess thinking about syncronizing the dj's drum and bass drop, with a good hit of ol' fashioned DMT at the club tonight, was more important.

Thank you for this though, when im not so baked I will re-watch.

well god damn, i thought it was interesting none the less
