Youtube...or G+ Video sharing?

Dear Youtube, I know you want me to use my 'real name', but I don't want to link all my accounts together. I already have multiple G+ accounts, I don't want to create yet another for my youtube account. Inspite of your stupid metrics, profitablity, and internet takeover ambitions... is it not possible to allow a youtube user with a youtube account to comment on a youtube video? . Thanks for your consideration, you lug. You know who

Jeremy Rifkin: The Empathic Civilization / Ross Institute Summer Academy...

Are we just trying to adapt and react now? Can we preserve a few human lives on this planet if the ecosystem we depend on collapses?
