"Eat less meat! Get rid of all livestock!" It's the war cry for the environmentally-conscious, but what if we're accidentally destroying our global grasslands in the process? In this thought-provoking talk, Bobby Gill of the Savory Institute discusses the symbiosis between grasslands and grazer, and why everyone -- regardless of dietary choice -- depends on properly-managed livestock for regenerating these dying landscapes.

Bobby Gill leads development and communications for the Savory Institute – a non-profit teaching farmers, ranchers, and pastoralist communities across the globe to regenerate the world’s grasslands with Holistic Management.

Whether it be the Maasai in Kenya, gauchos in Patagonia, sheepherders in Norway, or cowboys in the American West, the Savory Global Network has trained land managers of all types to utilize the land-regenerating potential of Holistic Management within their cultural and ecological context. Since 2009, Savory has begun regenerating over 25 million acres of desertifying grasslands to address the root cause of food, water, and climate security. 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
