How glaciers impact community | M Jackson

In this visually breathtaking talk, glaciologist M Jackson talks about the need for a radical shift in how we think about the 400,000 glaciers we share our planet with. Could taking these ice masses into consideration when it comes to our sociopolitical and cultural processes help us tackle big environmental problems ahead?

NOTE: Comments are disabled on this video. We made this difficult decision for the TED Archive because we believe that a well-moderated conversation allows for better commentary from more people and more viewpoints. Studies show that aggressive and hateful comments silence other commenters and drive them away; unfortunately, CZcams's comment moderation tools are simply not up to the task of allowing us to monitor comments on so many videos at once. (We'd love to see this change, CZcams.) So for now, if you'd like to comment on this talk, please use Facebook, Twitter or G+ to discuss with your networks.
