In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, Where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized. (*Subject to certain rules and regulations) - Věda a technologie
I have already planted over 30 redwood trees
Heads off to you...I am also doing the same... please go ahead
Excellent!
Yes I am doing it with my children for my grandchildren, inspiring talk from the heart!
I sincerely wish you were the leader of this planet, we NEED to think this way!
Nice one david. Keep up the good work . I've planting 30 coast redwood here in rugby Warwickshire England
A beautiful story by Jean Giono of France. A tale of immense and meaningful philanthropy.
If we are leaving comments, but not actively planting trees, we are just as much to blame as the people cutting down the forests. The natives participated in wildlife conservation naturally. When they would harvest their crop, they would also be sure to propagate for future generations. Lots of lessons we could learn from our ancestors.
As an arborist, I must admit that the industry is changing. The new breed in the industry has a different mindset than most of the older guys. Encourage your children to study forestry- there is VERY good money in it too and very little competition.
That's great to hear. What do you do for example? Perhaps explain to help people?
Fantastic effort - we all need to get behind this initiative. 🌿🌿🌿😃
Now this is real science!
This video was so amazing. My gave me a cold touch to my heart.
I have already planted two Dawn Redwoods and one Giant Sequoia on our property in West Virginia
Did you buy them somewhere? If so, where? I can't seem to find any information
I bought them online
Trees are cut down because we satisfy our want rather to meet our need. There is a popular Chinese proverb that say: "The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second best time is now."
I loved his talk and didn't find boring, actually dramatic in a way that caught my attention. But please sir stop shaking that first 3000years redwood baby clone!!
THE IDEA and ACTIVITY I AM ALL FOR, too. YES, and please SHARE THIS WITH OTHER PEOPLE............we can help SAVE THIS PLANET. We only have one EARTH. Let's all keep on co-operating to HELP MAKE IT BETTER.
just a small contention I have with his talk....the vast majority of Lake Superior is NOT a 'dead zone'. These dead zones have started appearing in the western basin but according to the USGS in a recent study, the Lakes are still largely unaffected by them.
I just brought property in Lake County wanted to build the Food Forest living off the grid quit my post office job but I ran out of money. I believe i can change and to restore when what God help me get. I drove on the road to my property a some guy saying I cannot leave and I cannot enter my property but my mission is if I'm stuck here so be it but I want to help and plant trees too for the wild and me!
The earth must have been one big magical place before human greed kicked in and killed off the perfect balance.
it was you bet !
More like human survival.
Brainwashed people
@@robertwoodpa6463 wtf
I have no kids nor want any but id help you without hesitation Anders, I've planted Seqoias I've grown from seed, they grow great here in Ireland.
i would love to have some samples to plant and care for, were can i get them?
Can we also do this with mushrooms and cacti ?!
I would love to plant redwoods all over the world. to ensure their survival.
This is very similar to what happened to me.
what is the book that David was holding?
What is the difference between using seeds of the 3000 year old tree and cloning?
BigWorldBigPoppa Genetic diversity, if you clone you make a copy of a tree. If you plant a seed it is a new tree with different DNA.
cloning gives 100% chance the clone will be exactly the same. using seeds gives you 0% chance the offspring will be exactly the same - in exactly the same way as when humans make children the good old school way - using seeds. when you buy an apple of some very popular sort (cultivar), you are buying an apple from one of millions apple trees of this exact cultivar that are growing and fruiting every year. all those millions of apple trees are identical clones and they all descend from one single specimen that is most likely long time dead but they keep cloning it on and on. because, that exceptional specimen may had produced seedlings as well but they all came out different from each other and technically each of them were their own unique cultivars but most of them weren´t attractive enough to get cloned and hence to get to become cultivars in fact.
I mean, I was spiritually employed to sound the alarm of our self-destruction via the loss of the biosphere
Complex issue...The idea of preserving the genetic heritage of the redwoods is a good one, but have questions about the details, ie, monoculture, suitability in different locations, soil conditions, etc.
FOR JO TURNER. RED WOODS AND SEQUOIA'S ARE AVAILABLE TO EVERYONE. JUST GOOGLE THEM GET SOME SET OUT IN YOUR LOCATION. THEY WILL GROW. I HAVE ONE IN MY YARD WHICH IS 8 INCHES DIAmeter ande 15 feet high
they are reported all over the usa and other coutrys also
Me: Ok, let's propagate some trees from cuttings.
Me intellectual: Ok, let's do some tree cloning
Thank you, really thank you.
But you left the red circle.
Planting trees is better than paying carbon tax
Great cause. This idea is one of many. Another great idea to help someone become rich. We don't have to invest our money in any one. Just vote with your dollar. Stop spending money on something that is necessity
Joseph Santana, AKA TROLL! You also posted that the Earth is flat! From which university you get your doctorate in pseudoscience and conspiracy theories?
Did the 5 acre challenge materialize?
There are fewer brain-numbing office tower jobs available; eventually more youths also will return to the earth.
Now this is real climate change. Not caused by cow farts and the citizens cars.
We need to do the same with old growth oak and hickory East of the Mississippi. Also, if anyone could find the great American chestnut that would also be amazingb
The addition says 9-11-2001+3-10-2011= 12-21-4012(It's the End Of The WORLD!!) seriously that's from the future, the nearest future
This talk should've been 8 mins long.
Much of the old growth trees not cut down in recent times were destroyed by forest firers. This should never have happened and we must make sure it never happens again. Individuals convicted of deliberately setting forest firers should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the years.
Trees ,,, agreed but Jesus,,,, never existed
Put up a parking lot !
Do you want to how self centred people are? Just check the views on Ted talks. The video that tells you how to be productive and make money have millions of views. And the video that tells you to do something for other people have a few thousands.
What a shame!
Boring yes deceiving yes also....Lake superior is not a 95% dead lake as a matter of fact according to the university of Minnesota the lakes fisheries are vastly improved over the last 40 years...Of course fish are not found in the deep areas of the lake as most fish in lakes are where the food is and that place is closer to shore. Hence the very deep waters of the center of the lake are sparse.. The water however is fine...Also picking out record temperatures in certain times and particular areas of the world is not an accurate way of measuring "world" climate as the last 3 years after this talk would show...I wonder if he uses the last 3 cold winters and the record lows during that period in his present day speeches. I think not. The man is after grants and preaching doom and gloom is obviously the way to do it...His cause is admirable, I must admit, more power to people who plant trees. Just don't lie to get peoples attention, when they find out they were lied to they will turn on you...Yes it's getting warmer it was warmer in the past ie. Greenland when Leaf Ericson landed there there were palm trees growing there...
Please people when you hear a talk by these morons please check the facts, and not in one place but several. Form your own opinions on the facts you find for yourself.
Okay.. If his wrong than we'll have more tree and shade. And what if your wrong?? We be fuck eh? Have you ever though of that? nothing is 100%. Let these people try not your problem.
is this guy high? how many times can you say the SAME THING?!
Why ruin it with belief in man made deities
The Earth is flat
the info is good, he comes from the heart, but his message fails to reach people as his method of delivery is TOO fucking boring.
if he truly cares he should make it fun to care, don't make it a lecture....
Make it a performance
hotdoggy7 Its your job to take action not his job to be a public speaker! Get real and grow UP!
Good on you for at least watching a ted talk. But if because something isn't interesting to us and we miss out on the important message/truth in that presentation that could affect our lives or the future don't you think that's silly..
If you're serious about learning and contributing positively to society/the environment then you're always trying to learn from everywhere! Regardless of how good/bad the circumstances/situation..
Can you imagine If humans die out because we couldn't pay attention and wanted everything to be interesting/fun/easy instead of seeing the truth/message in it and acting on this? Don't you think that's silly and that we deserve to die out if that's the case..?
And you’re doing what, where?
for me this was a performance and a sort of disappointment in the way I would like it to be a bit less of a performance. if this was a lecture for you you may had had wayyyyy too few lectures in your live I´m afraid.
