Global warming and the dumb problem of food waste | Chad Frischmann | TEDxJohannesburgSalon

Chad Frischmann defines Drawdown as a point in time when we can begin to reduce concentrations of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, effecting global cooling, stopping global warming, and beginning the long process of reversing the climate crisis. Reframing our understanding of climate change as a symptom of a deeper problem can help direct our attention more sharply to the root causes, and therefore the actual solutions. Chad and his team of researchers have measured and described real existing technologies and practices that, when taken together, can achieve the goal of Drawdown. With food waste and loss responsible for roughly eight percent of global emissions, reducing both as part of a system of solutions can play a surprisingly significant role in helping us reach Drawdown – the pivotal point that will set the planet towards a better future.
Co-author of Drawdown, vice president of Project Drawdown, works to reverse global warming and help build a new, regenerative future. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
