00:14
welcome to this edition of when the
00:16
biomass hits the wind turbine a
00:18
discussion of sustainable living and
00:20
what that means to you and me I’m Jay
00:24
Warmke I’m Annie Warmke and today we’re
00:27
gonna talk about future trends and
00:30
sustainability or don’t follow me I’m
00:33
lost too I’m gonna remind you of that I
00:38
need no reminding I just need to look up
00:42
periodically alright so let’s talk a
00:47
little bit because we we discuss
00:49
sustainability at nauseam and and at
00:54
black stations all right so I’m trying
01:00
to bring a little culture to this so
01:02
anyway so so when we talk about the
01:04
various aspects of sustainability there
01:07
are a whole lot of broad categories so
01:09
let’s try and hit these things kind of
01:11
one but okay but before we do just to
01:13
say I knew I wasn’t gonna get to my list
01:15
I don’t care about statistics right
01:19
those can be manipulated and who does
01:22
the study that’s what I want to know so
01:24
what we’re going to talk about today is
01:25
really the things that we see as we read
01:29
different news generation things like
01:33
you know some newspapers some magazines
01:36
and just also listening closely to
01:40
people who cross our threshold what
01:42
you’re doing is level setting saying
01:44
none of these projections have anything
01:46
to do with any scientific research not
01:48
so we’re doing scientific research all
01:50
the time what I’m getting at is that
01:53
this is just our conversation and and
01:56
it’s absolutely factual there’s nothing
01:58
made up and it’s not fake news how’s
02:01
that okay well speaking of it’s our news
02:03
from Blue Rock station speaking of fake
02:05
news let’s talk about communication okay
02:08
we we are a world dependent upon
02:13
communication yet we don’t seem able to
02:17
communicate with each other well we’re a
02:19
world dependent on consumption
02:21
communication we want to we want to sell
02:24
stuff and that’s and nobody’s off the
02:27
charts for that okay
02:28
so in the world of sustainability what
02:30
do you see coming down the pike at us
02:33
we’ve seen this this ever progressing
02:36
march of media coming at us ever no it’s
02:40
not a March it’s a bombardment okay
02:43
really amazing like smacking you in the
02:45
chest everywhere you go there’s TVs
02:47
there’s radio there’s social media
02:49
there’s the rectangles staring at you
02:51
beeping at you right so do you see
02:54
people then fighting back against this I
02:57
think so and I see a rejection I’m
03:01
fascinated with the fact that they’re
03:03
actually not just old people but also
03:07
younger people going to flip phones
03:09
where they don’t want to have the
03:12
technology tracking them although it is
03:15
tracking them but they don’t want all of
03:17
that they just want some simple thing to
03:19
communicate with and then they’re going
03:21
to use a real camera to take pictures if
03:25
they need something and I think people
03:29
we hear young people all the time at
03:32
Blue Rock station saying I left my phone
03:35
here because I or I’m taking a break for
03:37
a week from social media or I don’t do
03:41
social media anymore or I’m reading a
03:44
real book that I hold in my hand so I
03:47
think there’s a backlash and I think
03:49
that backlash is gonna keep coming and I
03:52
know I said I wasn’t going to stay it’s
03:53
just you you were I was just gonna
03:55
mention you were telling me about the
03:56
statistic about eBook sales declining
03:59
significantly while real book sales are
04:01
going on 10% a year real book sales are
04:04
increasing so do you know 10% isn’t
04:06
statistics are just made up well the
04:09
other 10% weren’t there you go okay so
04:13
so and and I can see that I mean I’ve
04:15
always maintained a book is a really
04:17
good technology I mean it’s portable
04:19
it’s transferable you can read it when
04:22
the electricity goes off it’s it’s a
04:23
good technology nothing wrong with it so
04:26
we we tend to get carried away when we
04:29
say okay just because we can do a thing
04:31
it’s going to be done that’s right it
04:33
must
04:34
well we’re sunny it makes money well to
04:36
some people but what we’re saying is
04:38
okay as these technologies become more
04:40
intrusive
04:42
more annoying more pervasive people will
04:46
become momentarily Amish right no I
04:50
don’t think I don’t know if that’s a
04:51
good analogy I I don’t think it’s
04:54
momentarily Amish I think that what
04:56
people will say is I know I’m going to
04:59
try to decide what I need and what I
05:00
don’t need and I’m gonna sort that out
05:02
and I’m not sure how that’s gonna impact
05:06
younger people who really don’t know
05:08
life without those things I think what
05:11
it does is create an act of rebellion on
05:14
their part and we all know that anybody
05:16
under 20 for the most part likes to have
05:18
some acts of rebellion so I’m just
05:21
wondering what that’s going to mean to
05:22
our consumption generating corporations
05:26
in the next decade well let’s hope it’s
05:29
significantly change so ok moving on
05:32
speaking of consumption see I’m making
05:34
these bridges how is how do you envision
05:39
because again if I if I go back and say
05:42
all right we’ve gone from a society
05:45
where people or their neighbors created
05:48
food and consumed it themselves or
05:50
shared it with people who were nearby to
05:52
now a food industry that is global and
05:55
highly processed and highly
05:58
industrialised so that has been the
06:02
post-world War Two to today the last 50
06:04
years of progress so where do you see us
06:07
going with that well I think we’re gonna
06:10
see lots more local food so everything
06:14
old is new again well all we have to do
06:17
is least for me is to look back and see
06:19
how my grandparents lived when they were
06:21
maybe in their 30s and 40s before before
06:25
all the things started changing with the
06:27
industrialization of food so I think
06:29
we’re going to see more farmers markets
06:31
better farmers markets more buying
06:35
locally and directly from farmers I
06:39
think we’re going to see a lot of farms
06:41
going out of business because they’re
06:43
mismanaged and they’ve always maintained
06:46
bigger is better and bigger is not
06:48
better and it’s not sustainable I also
06:52
think that we’re going to gain a
06:54
more access to good food because there
06:57
is going to be interruption there’s
07:00
going to be a lot of issues coming that
07:03
will interrupt my interruption do you
07:06
mean like like we’ve seen some ecoli
07:10
outbreaks Voyageur just distribution
07:13
maybe the grid goes down and there’s no
07:15
gas to ship stuff I would take a day and
07:17
it would just be amazing what would
07:19
happen so we’re going to become more
07:21
dependent on each other and what we can
07:23
produce and I think that’s a really
07:25
great thing and there’s some of that
07:28
going on now but I think we have to kind
07:31
of come back to it well I tend to agree
07:33
I think we we’ve got a lot of we’ve
07:36
talked a bit about in other and other
07:37
shows about the natural disasters and
07:40
and how climate change is affecting
07:42
those things well climate change but
07:45
also just the inevitability of highly
07:48
industrializing what you’re putting into
07:50
your body we’re gonna have some major
07:52
catastrophic outbreaks I mean we have
07:55
them already but they don’t seem to
07:57
quite be of a point to bring it into the
08:00
forefront of our consciousness but I
08:02
think it just take a few of them and
08:04
people are gonna start to question
08:05
whether they can really count on the
08:08
safety of the food that’s that they’re
08:10
buying groceries but I don’t even think
08:11
I mean yes I believe that’s true I think
08:14
that’s one thing but I also think the
08:16
disruption of the food chain where the
08:18
food cannot be distributed so it isn’t
08:21
just about that it’s poisoned
08:23
but that it isn’t even available because
08:25
people surprised me even today of how
08:28
close they live to this line of they
08:31
don’t have enough in their house to eat
08:32
and they’re not poor people they just
08:34
don’t put food up you know they don’t
08:36
preserve food they don’t have a big they
08:39
don’t even have food in their freezer
08:41
right and if you talk about the city as
08:43
an organism yes I mean this I don’t
08:46
remember the right statistic but it’s
08:48
like there’s two days or the food or so
08:50
yeah I know yeah but it’s not that’s not
08:52
very much and it’s like people also have
08:54
lost the skillsets to produce food in a
08:57
way that you can like read you know take
09:01
leftovers and do something else with it
09:03
and things like that so there isn’t even
09:04
the ability to make proper food and
09:07
I do think one of the trends at least I
09:10
see is that we’re going to need to go
09:13
back to some form of home economics so
09:15
that young people can learn how to care
09:18
for themselves and I don’t think that’s
09:21
happening right now
09:22
but I also think that we’re going to
09:24
have and these trends are you can go
09:26
online and look this up but as far as
09:28
meat and dairy consumption that is
09:30
decreasing every single year now and
09:33
there’s a lot of complaining about the
09:36
fact that people are eating less meat
09:37
and dairy and of course the meat and
09:39
dairy industry is going after the
09:41
meatless industry and the almond milk
09:45
people saying they can’t use the word
09:46
milk and trying to create definition and
09:48
they’re actually passing legislation in
09:50
a number of states and have one passing
09:53
this legislation to stop the almond milk
09:56
people from saying milk or the meatless
09:59
people you know toe fruit – what is it
10:02
toad – tofurkey can’t you know after 30
10:06
years they’re not allowed to use that
10:08
term or something I don’t know but the
10:10
reality is we are eating less meat we
10:13
are eating less dairy and what do those
10:15
trends mean well maybe we eat more fake
10:18
food or maybe we just eat more plant
10:21
produced food well it strikes me and
10:23
where we’re we’re sort of heading in all
10:26
of this when we talk about the
10:27
technologies people were ejected some of
10:30
the technology infrastructure is
10:32
collapsing under its own wheat well I
10:35
can’t seem to get an internet signal out
10:38
of there oh my god things like that so
10:40
we see that there are pockets the urban
10:42
settings or the affluent urban settings
10:45
have access to a lot of things so it
10:48
with the technology and with the with
10:53
the food system we’re creating again the
10:57
haves and the have-nots and it’s largely
10:59
based on the zip code where you live you
11:01
know your economic situation and your
11:04
location proximity to other people where
11:07
concentration makes it economic to
11:09
provide so so that’s there are a lot of
11:11
neighborhoods in in urban areas that are
11:14
food deserts and a food desert is not
11:16
having access to a real grocery store
11:19
within 2 miles so we actually live in a
11:21
desert yeah okay well we’re I think
11:24
that’s a trend that will see
11:26
accelerating and continuing is is this
11:30
the haves and the have-nots becoming
11:32
more more pronounced and this will be a
11:35
template to layover every one of these
11:37
trends that we put in because those
11:40
people who are educated and have the
11:42
resources you know they’re entering into
11:45
this brave new world of amazing
11:47
opportunity those people who are not
11:51
accessible to these resources become
11:54
more and more ghettoized you know in in
11:57
so many different ways and as we’ve
12:00
talked about where government can be
12:01
seen as the great great equalizer does
12:04
not seem to be stepping up to the plate
12:06
well they’re not coming right well we
12:09
can they encourage it they really do
12:11
encourage it okay so speaking of not
12:13
coming this is another good ok
12:16
transportation there we go
12:17
transportation how are we even get there
12:19
from here so so what what’s new what’s
12:24
new in store in transportation as long
12:26
as Annie sees it well one is that this
12:30
does not take a rocket scientist to
12:32
figure out that gas is cheap now but it
12:34
is not going to stay there and I believe
12:37
that the Saudis are paying us back for
12:41
us not putting up with some of their big
12:43
lies in their their torture where we’re
12:46
being rewarded for putting up with these
12:49
oh I don’t think we’re being rewarded at
12:51
all I think we’re being led down okay so
12:54
you’re saying okay we’re gonna make you
12:56
dependent one so once again I see fuels
12:58
yeah then we’re gonna yank the carpet
13:00
yeah we are cynical person yeah they
13:02
think that’s exactly what they’re doing
13:03
and they got a lot of petrol I mean a
13:07
lot of oil and they can do it so and
13:09
then people are gonna race out and buy
13:11
these vehicles and fortunately the other
13:15
trend well so and then they’re going to
13:18
knock the socks off of us with the price
13:20
but that’s okay I think that’s a
13:22
positive thing because the car companies
13:24
all the major car companies are
13:28
repositioning themselves to have
13:29
electric vehicles and hybrid vehicles
13:32
and that is going to save us so this
13:35
these can do whatever they want but
13:36
we’re gonna be in a better position now
13:38
save us save us for the time being
13:40
because every trend solves a problem and
13:43
then turns around it absolutely
13:45
absolutely it’s another problem okay
13:47
well you have been listening to when the
13:49
biomass it’s the wind turbine with Jay
13:51
and Annie Warmke reminding you once
13:53
more that it is indeed the end of the
13:56
world as we know it and thank God thank
13:59
God okay so we’re not done yet man we’ve
14:01
got the future to worry about so we’ve
14:03
been talking about transportation and
14:05
and we’re talking about okay
14:07
transportation gas prices going up
14:10
that’s gonna its disruptive the feast or
14:12
famine kind of situation of fossil fuels
14:14
moving towards an electric
14:16
transportation and then one of my
14:20
possible future trends I mean we in this
14:23
sustainability industry love mass
14:26
transit none of us actually use it even
14:33
when it works you know when it’s
14:35
available we like the convenience of our
14:38
own vehicle you and I love to
14:41
commiserate about how much we’d love to
14:44
ride the trains in here okay but that
14:46
was very convenient but but if you’re
14:50
talking about people in general not not
14:54
strange Psychopaths like ourselves
15:04
reserved for your goats so anyway we we
15:09
tend to like the convenience of going
15:11
where we want to go and getting there
15:13
when we want to get there and I think
15:15
what we’re seeing is a conversion of
15:18
technologies that will allow for
15:22
individualized mass transit and and
15:25
that’s a concept that I think is we’re
15:29
taking baby steps towards their uber is
15:32
an example I don’t have to own a car
15:34
whenever I want to get somewhere I just
15:36
call up uber and they show up and take
15:38
me where I want to go if you happen to
15:41
live in the city you know where uber is
15:43
available and things like that but there
15:46
are a lot of folks now in our society
15:48
sim
15:49
look at the automobile is an option as
15:52
opposed to a necessity then we’re moving
15:54
towards driverless vehicles but back up
15:58
because I’m thinking of being in Paris
16:00
and in London where they have converted
16:03
to like I think every taxi driver I saw
16:07
in Paris had a Prius hybrid and they had
16:10
recharging stations for bicycles and the
16:14
bicycles were there so it was they were
16:16
government-owned and the thing about
16:19
uber is the picture I have when you’re
16:22
saying that is all these individual cars
16:24
racing around and there are a lot more
16:27
of them and that is kind of like
16:29
destroying the whole concept of
16:31
sustainability well we we thought we had
16:33
this thought okay if people aren’t going
16:35
out to buy their own cars there’ll be
16:36
less traffic what ends up happening is
16:38
the uber drivers driving around looking
16:40
for somebody to pick up so so there’s a
16:43
lot more traffic on the road so I’m not
16:45
saying these things are solving any
16:47
problems I’m just saying this is a trend
16:50
where we’re going to look towards
16:52
individualized mass transit whether that
16:54
be vehicles driven or autonomous
16:58
bicycles we see that in some places
17:01
where you can just you know put money in
17:03
a slot take a bike drive where you want
17:05
to go right where you want to go and I
17:06
believe there’s a couple of Chinese
17:08
companies that are doing that really big
17:10
in some sense there are some of those
17:11
rental car places that are like that too
17:13
you just grab a car and there’s a car
17:16
park somebody right in Columbus you can
17:18
do that right now southeastern Ohio is
17:20
not only a food desert we’re a desert
17:22
when it comes to all these innovation so
17:24
once again the haves and the have-nots
17:26
well we have other things that are
17:28
important yes beauty fresh air good food
17:30
charming people and intelligent children
17:33
so those are all remember that gosh
17:40
there’s too many on the list right so
17:42
but I just think that private mass
17:44
transit which seems to be an oxymoron
17:46
but I think it’s something that you
17:48
heard it here first okay let’s move on I
17:51
heard it here first
17:53
employment ok what’s the future of
17:56
employment the future of employment is
18:01
that
18:02
if you want to have a life so first of
18:06
all if you went to college you probably
18:08
are in debt for the rest of your life
18:10
and I just had dinner on the weekend
18:14
with somebody who went to school to get
18:16
her master’s degree in accounting and
18:18
she has a hundred seventy thousand
18:20
dollars in debt $1,800 a month payment
18:24
before she pays rent or anything so
18:26
she’s in debt for the rest of her life
18:28
and that’s the way it is
18:30
how old is this person Oh like 28 or 29
18:33
so so here’s the other part of that is
18:37
that in order to live sustainably forget
18:41
the debt part for the moment in order to
18:43
live sustainably I believe that we have
18:46
to live very differently than we do now
18:49
for one thing we need to not have one
18:51
source for any one thing that we need so
18:54
we don’t if we shouldn’t have one source
18:56
to heat our house so why do we have one
18:59
source for employment so so you’re
19:02
moving towards the gig economy well I
19:04
know that’s what they call it although
19:06
it doesn’t seem like it’s terribly nice
19:08
right now but I think what has to happen
19:10
is we have to have a different
19:12
government that sustains some of this
19:14
with us so we’re in partnership with the
19:17
people who take the tax money and so we
19:20
need to have young people who have a
19:22
couple of different sources and here’s
19:24
of employment and here’s what happens
19:26
then that perhaps they actually do
19:28
something that gives them a sense of
19:30
accomplishment and makes them feel good
19:33
about what they’re doing whether it’s
19:35
working for McDonald’s or its sweeping
19:38
the streets I mean not everybody is
19:40
going to end up doing you know being the
19:44
rocket scientist but the other flip side
19:46
of that is that we need to have people
19:48
feel good about what they’re doing and
19:50
it is possible for the other part of it
19:54
is has to do with training you know I
19:56
see a trend towards saying look we’ve
20:00
got a couple of different groups that
20:02
are in school besides the people going
20:04
to university and the people that are
20:06
just going to go out and do the labourer
20:09
jobs and in between there are some
20:12
really brilliant people who need trade
20:14
school they need vocational
20:16
occasion they need mentoring and so I
20:19
think if we step up to the plate and
20:21
look at that and say that’s a solution
20:23
then the gig economy can work because
20:26
people are in different jobs doing
20:28
different things that appeal to them
20:30
it’s not just you’re just the laborer
20:33
using your back to earn a living and
20:35
you’re not even making enough to pay for
20:37
a place to live so what you’re saying is
20:39
the post-world War two idea or ideal of
20:44
going out getting a college education
20:47
going to work for a large corporation
20:50
and having this this unsaid contract
20:54
between that company that I will devote
20:57
all of my energies to you and you will
21:00
take care of me until I die basically
21:04
well that’s it that that was the very
21:06
ideal list well that was never a reality
21:08
but most of our ideals are never
21:10
realities but we’re saying okay let’s
21:12
acknowledge the fact that the
21:14
corporation doesn’t care whether you
21:17
know they’ll use you abuse you and toss
21:18
you away so we see the idea that you
21:22
know working to live not living to work
21:25
that’s that’s the big piece where we are
21:27
right now that young people want to have
21:30
more of a life they’ve seen that and
21:32
they know it doesn’t work and they’ve
21:34
been saddled with this debt and so
21:36
they’re saying look I can’t earn enough
21:38
to even afford a car and a place to live
21:41
I can’t afford children so I want to
21:45
have something that says I can have some
21:48
leisure time I want to have some time
21:50
where I can just be myself instead of be
21:53
owned by the person I work for and I
21:57
want to feel sustainable in what I’m
22:00
doing you know lots of young people want
22:02
to do composting and grow food and you
22:05
know I think it’s a huge trend in our
22:07
culture and it’s just beginning okay so
22:10
so the big killer of choices which
22:12
you’ve mentioned several times is debt
22:14
debt is prison debt is slavery and and
22:17
debt is is the number one product sold
22:21
in our nation I mean that is the product
22:24
that is manufactured more than anything
22:26
else if you think about the debt
22:29
industry
22:30
yeah as it exists and and I think from
22:33
historical standpoint you know at one
22:36
point people did not go into debt they
22:38
they worked saved and bought what it was
22:40
they needed there are certain purchases
22:43
like homes and land that that becomes
22:45
almost a generational thing where you
22:48
would have to work almost your whole
22:49
life to save up for that so so there
22:52
became it are you inherited so there’s a
22:55
different model than we have today right
22:57
but but then with the idea of being able
23:01
to purchase a home on installment that
23:05
was a big advancement and like most
23:07
things that become a problem in the
23:09
beginning they were not necessarily a
23:11
problem so then we get a revolving
23:14
credit kind of thing for the for the
23:16
purchase of things you would like to
23:17
have now the the old company store idea
23:21
you know that was a way of indenture
23:23
people to be indebted to the country
23:26
model we have now yeah so now you’re now
23:29
the company stores your credit card you
23:32
know you are working to pay off the debt
23:36
against things that you’re already used
23:38
up and broke well you also borrowed
23:41
money say if you’re in college or
23:43
university you borrowed money towards
23:45
your future earnings you didn’t just
23:47
borrow money to have something right and
23:49
that’s the next step is you say all
23:51
right not only are you borrowing money
23:52
for stuff that it’s gonna depreciate and
23:55
break and get used up but now we’re
23:58
going to borrow money against future
24:00
earnings and and we’ve speculated a
24:03
little bit about this in our own private
24:04
conversations is to say well what else
24:06
could these people actually loan you
24:08
money against that you have well what
24:11
else does the person have they don’t
24:13
have enough mouths I’m saying you know
24:15
in when we push it one forward why not
24:18
sell the future earnings of your
24:20
children you know why why you’re you’re
24:23
doing that with with school debt why not
24:26
you know the second year kid is born say
24:28
hey this kids going to earn X number of
24:31
dollars I’m gonna borrow against my kids
24:33
earning and you say well that’s not fair
24:35
well who said economics is fair right I
24:38
mean you’re raising the kid for eighteen
24:41
years 20 years what
24:43
that kid owes you I don’t think it’s
24:45
that far-fetched because I was reading
24:47
about the way that things are being done
24:50
in China where they have a credit system
24:55
and it basically evaluates you it
24:57
evaluates everything you purchase it
24:59
evaluates your friends and your family
25:02
and what they purchase and where they
25:04
eat and the music they listen to and if
25:07
your friends and your family aren’t very
25:09
high up on the scale people will go out
25:11
and try to get somebody and actually
25:13
give them money to sign on to their
25:16
friendship base so they can lift their
25:18
ability to borrow money or buy things or
25:21
get a place to eat in a restaurant
25:23
apparently have to sign up ahead of time
25:25
and if you don’t have enough high high
25:27
enough rating on your card you can’t get
25:30
a place in some of the restaurants sense
25:32
which is why the governor and I go
25:34
through the drive-thru window he’s dead
25:36
neither I just want you to say he’s dead
25:38
no I wasn’t talking about that guy oh
25:40
okay it’s alive governor I don’t know of
25:45
which state okay so so you’re in debt
25:49
your future is in debt you’re up to your
25:51
eyeballs where are you gonna live well
25:53
my people are living at home well they
25:57
sold your future income that’s true well
25:59
no they didn’t get that money or you you
26:01
got that money but it’s gonna change I
26:04
think it’s not just living at home but I
26:06
think I see lots of young people living
26:09
together in houses in neighborhoods
26:13
where four or five people are living in
26:15
some of these houses that are pretty
26:17
good-sized or even not pretty good-sized
26:20
and even people my age living with
26:23
younger people where they rent a room so
26:27
we’re talking about sharing resources
26:29
you say everybody doesn’t need their own
26:31
home everybody doesn’t need their own
26:33
car everybody doesn’t need their own
26:35
lawnmower their own riding mower their
26:37
own whatever their own kitchen right so
26:40
why don’t we share these resources
26:42
well we’re Americans so we’re taught
26:43
that we have this you know pioneering
26:46
spirit and we should buy one of
26:47
everything for ourselves but I think
26:49
it’s starting to change and I think the
26:52
economy is enough who’s teaching us that
26:55
the guys who want to sell us
26:56
stuff well but who’s teaching us that we
26:59
don’t need to do that and that’s maybe
27:01
you and I are okay well I’m saying low
27:07
stomach from a marketing standpoint who
27:10
is teaching us and I think it’s
27:12
word-of-mouth right now and that’s where
27:14
the activism piece comes in because we
27:16
can make changes with things like this
27:18
and how we consume and how we live and
27:21
how we don’t live that can make such a
27:24
huge difference so I want to say one
27:28
thing about spiritual practice because
27:30
we’ve talked about a lot of things that
27:31
have to do with stuff okay well 15
27:34
seconds for spirit all right so I think
27:35
that the emergence of young younger
27:39
people discovering groups like pagans
27:41
and Universal Unitarian Universalists
27:44
that have a religious group that come
27:47
together I think there’s a bankruptcy
27:49
that we have in our culture around
27:51
spiritualism and it’s not about religion
27:54
and so I think people are going to start
27:55
discovering some of these wonderful
27:57
other practices that are more rooted in
28:00
nature and real life okay well with that
28:03
thought you’ve been listening to when
28:05
the biomass it’s the wind turbine with
28:07
