Ultimately, we are dealing here with an equation where all the factors are known in other words, an equation without unknowns.

But there's an extra symbol in this equation H.

And we could generate an equation that could predict the likelihood of an attack.

We see that as an equation that equals violence against women.

And I think what that does to us psychologically is it creates an equation.

Now, of course, like any great tool, they can be used completely mindlessly, like turning everything into a multimedia show, like the example I was shown of solving an equation by hand, where the computer was the teacher show the student how to manipulate and solve it by hand.

Well, I'm not going to explain this equation, but theoretical physics is really an amazing subject.

A very simple equation.

It expresses, but it doesn't solve, an underlying problem.

You cannot solve this problem in an ordinary way.

It's a partial differential equation.

So the equation is conceptual.

I want to solve a problem. I want an application.

Here's an example of the puzzle you're going to solve.

It's been very productive, that equation.

As I spent my week up in the Himalayas, I started to imagine what I call an emotional equation.

The emergence of terrorism as a tool of political extremism added an even more worrisome element to that equation.

So all the exquisitely detailed calculations we can do with that wonderful equation wouldn't be possible without an extra bit.

In an ideal world, we would solve them all, but we don't.

So let me stretch out that equation.

Let's go back and visit our equation.

But this part of the equation I didn't really get, and I don't think my physicians really get this part of the equation.

And when he looked at that equation, it was none other than the equation that scientists had long known to describe the electromagnetic force.

And that changes the equation slightly, doesn't it?

Mathematically, this is expressed by the following equation

Will this solve the problem? Will economics solve everything?

So here's the sort of equation we're looking at.

It's called the standard model beautifully simple mathematical equation.

And I can put it in this simple equation.

All of those things are part of that equation.

Numbers, however, were only one part of the equation.

Complexity is the problem that any theory of biology has to solve, and you can't solve it by postulating an agent that is even more complex, thereby simply compounding the problem.

First, genetic engineering cannot solve the hunger and food insecurity problem. This is correct GM foods cannot singlehandedly solve the problem, but they can be an important part of the solution.

And then we'll know the whole equation for the line.

There's a basic equation that we can't get away from.

So a plague outbreak in Surat, India becomes not an obscure event, but a globalized event a globalized concern that has changed the risk equation.

And that happiness is a whole other end of the equation.

This is the only equation in the talk by the way.

And on that basis, I've suggested a different kind of equation.

Paul and Anne Ehrlich's environmental impact equation population, affluence and technology.

For us, I think, part of the equation for our survival.

It's stable because all the roots of this equation are negative.

And it is not us who will solve it Afghans have to solve it.

In order to solve the climate crisis, we have to solve the democracy crisis.

And the mathematicians and scientists in the crowd will recognize these two progressions as a first order discrete differential equation and a second order discrete differential equation, derived by six year olds.
