"You guys are teaching the wrong stuff. You go to the mechanical engineering school and your students are still learning about internal combustion engines instead of fuel cells. You go to ceramics and people are still studying heat, beat, treat technology for producing ceramics, instead of studying how the abalone does it better out of commonly available minerals in the ocean at 40 degrees Fahrenheit. ... The education system needs revamping. ... You're still teaching the system that is destroying the biosphere, and teaching the teachers to perpetuate it."
