In which John discusses the agricultural revolution, the development of permanent settlements, and whether cities were good news. SOURCES BELOW. Hank is publishing a novel next year! https://www.nytimes.com/2017/09/19/books/youtube-star-hank-green-first-novel.html But before then, we are going on tour to celebrate my new novel, Turtles All the Way Down: http://www.turtlesallthewaydownbook.com/#tour SOURCES: Hunter-gatherers have less famine than agriculturalists: http://rsbl.royalsocietypublishing.org/content/10/1/20130853 This gets into some of the archeology and analysis of human remains that indicates that hunter-gatherers lived on average longer and healthier lives than agriculturalists. The Case against Civilization inspired this video and includes the statistics about how much hunter-gatherers work in food acquisition and domestic labor: https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2017/09/18/the-case-against-civilization This article also explores some of the complexities of agriculture's development: http://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2016/07/15/485722228/where-did-agriculture-begin-oh-boy-its-complicated The book discussed in "The Case against Civilization" is called AGAINST THE GRAIN, and while I disagree with a lot that's in it, I also think it's an interesting read and outlines both its case for why cities developed and other people's cases. I also leaned on the book SAPIENS by Yuval Noah Harari for some of the theories about why cities developed. Our World in Data is an amazing resource for understanding long-term trends in human history. That's where I got the graph about the dramatic reduction in absolute poverty the world is experiencing: https://ourworldindata.org/extreme-poverty/ And also the graph about the declining number of hours worked: https://ourworldindata.org/working-hours/ And lastly, the median U.S. household income really is higher (even after adjusting for inflation) than it ever has been before: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Household_income_in_the_United_States ---- Subscribe to our newsletter! http://nerdfighteria.com/newsletter/ And join the community at http://nerdfighteria.com http://effyeahnerdfighters.com Help transcribe videos - http://nerdfighteria.info John's twitter - http://twitter.com/johngreen John's tumblr - http://fishingboatproceeds.tumblr.com Hank's twitter - http://twitter.com/hankgreen Hank's tumblr - http://edwardspoonhands.tumblr.com Preorder John's new book, Turtles All the Way Down, out October 10th 2017!
