How Coffee Transformed My Life: Brad Butler at TEDxGoldenGatePark (2D)
bicycles reviews | bicycles videos | bicycles online
In June 2009, Brad Butler traveled with his 3 cousins through the jungles of Panama with the goal of building that sustainable living community in the form of an Eco-Village. Through his journey, Brad discovered cooperative coffee farming and focused on bringing those practices back to the United States. Once there, he and his family began roasting cooperatively grown coffee on stove-top popcorn poppers. Today, Bicycle Coffee delivers their fresh roasted beans to more than 250 businesses in the Bay Area. http://www.bicyclecoffeeco.com/ In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations) This talk was shot shot and edited in stereoscopic 3D by Golden Gate 3D and Area 5. http://gg3d.com http://area5.tv To view in 3D, click here: http://youtu.be/4WjGi-zLqug

Brad you got out of selling loans because of the mortgage crisis that you helped create, not out of some existential epiphany you fraud.
-
sucks big time
-
The two horrible ideas behind this: "How well we do, by selling a drug, caffeine, which is addictive". And having "a network of people working for us". This guy didn't learn a shit.
-
When will 'ex-pats' start being called immigrants? It works both ways.
-
Meh...
-
We need more humans like him.
-
Awesome stuff, congratulations !!

Yes, a guy that was hyper-motivated in the first place. The talk should have gone: "I'm an extremely competent, driven, successful guy. No matter what I did or do will be a success. I happened to have the luxury to talk a bunch of time off since I stashed away a huge amount of money from my immoral, exploitative job. Then I got the brilliant idea to simultaneous assuage my conscience to help the poor, but 'authentic' slobs in Central America, and find another way to make yet more money. Now I want to brag about how I am: Helping poor slobs, ending global warming, etc.." Don't forget my really cool reference to an ancient Greek king, I'm an intellectual too! I'll bet he gets laid a lot1

Youtube is full of Liars! Why is everyone lying creating fake stories to promote their business?
-
You are so cool, I like the way you say about '' Passion" . You inspired what I am doing. Thanks a lot.
-
Where did you take your clothes from, the bottom of the dirty basket? An important talk and you couldn't go get a well fitting jacket, shirt and pants, you look like a train wreck. I will skip on this talk.

Total BS. I would never buy anything from this tool.
-
So what's so special about their coffee again? It's freshly roasted, is that it?
-
ha ! i have the same job as he does !
-
why is he undressing?
-
why is he so dramatic
-
if he invested the money he made he could eventually quit and have free time. Money can buy time.
-
