Sustaining Sustainability:Staying Optimistic in a Pessimistic World | Chad Simmons | TEDxDalhousieU
Chad discusses sustainability from the perspective of a researcher focusing on the intricacies of ecosystems while focusing on a sustainable future. I grew up in a small rural Nova Scotian town and have been steeping in the biodiversity of the province's natural areas ever since. Today I am lucky to be both an MSc student in Dal's Biology Department as well as an ecologist and science communicator for the Mersey Tobeatic Research Institute. My graduate project allows me to uncover new details about rare plants and explore many beautiful places in NS as I research their forest homes. My day job is anything but boring; I get to wear many different hats. During a typical week, I could be out searching for endangered turtles, tracking invasive species or collaborating with other organizations to share our work. As I build my career, I will continue to fight for the natural world as I research the intricacies of ecosystems and drag society along as we move towards a sustainable 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
