About TEDx, x = independently organized event 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)
this is a great attempt to bring more food to those without..Bravo.
This, combined with vertical farming... Wow!! We might actually be able to let nature heal herself. Wouldn't that be lovely? Go soil-free agriculture! Yay!
Permaculture principles are capable of repairing many of the soil conditions, food quality, and food quantity issues that this film claims to resolve. It can do so semi-permanently as well, but /only/ if done correctly and with patience.
Thank you for video!
Impressive! Congratz! Spread the word...
¡Esta es una idea brillante!
Very interesting this video, actually I have a lot of doubts but I will research it anyway.
Is there any way to get some of this in México? I live in a desert kind of land, so it will be very helpful to have this tecnology implemented
Subtítulos en español por favor.
Where can I find those material from the company I want to start using this technology to grow in Cambodia
It's a technology to be used where you don't have good soil... Like some of the african countries where the soil is too sandy and drains water fast. For them, this is a miracle, they can grow food in that terrible environment. Food grown on plastic foil beats by far no food at all. :)
Not so. With appropriate natural methods many desert areas have been restored to produce abundantly. Check your facts before you speak.
It is a amazing technology ever.
Where we can buy those films???
And what nutrients should be put with the water??
Where can I buy it?
Where i can get this video rotten?
Because I have an exam about this video!
Please help me!!
here's the thing. they have radio active ground . it doesnt matter if it's cost effective or not when it comes down to it. that land cant be used for much for 100 years but if they use that. or some tec along with that. how much time can they cut down?
So, the way I see it, this is a temporary solution to a very long term problem and will have to be financed by some very wealthy philanthropic backers or the people that really need the food will /not/ get it. Permaculture and proper, integrated, land management is the way of a sustainable future - this film is a very pretty, highly functional, technologically sexy, rich mans temporary solution to starvation and over-urbanization.
Incredible
Even a bad translation in English, is better than none at all. I don't understand Japanese.
I am a farmer from Philippines. Where I can buy this film? I love this technique of farming.
Where can we buy the film.
Very interesting,but what exactly do you put in the tube that promotes the growth of plants?
Thnq
Where can I buy some of that film? What does it cost? Is it reusable?
+251omega the film is the same structure as the baby diaper, absorbed the water, won't leak out. sponge, PU tube (drill the hole by yourselves), and waterproof Sheet (HDPE film), easy things. See agriculture books.
The point is the grow medium, he had stated that barrier film for contamination is just a stand in "...lets pretend...", so obviously it can be any radiation blocking material that any given situation had given.
While I agree with the premise that this technology will be seen by those in desperate need as "OK", even a god-send, there are several issues that this does not address. Where is that film going to come from? How will it be made affordable to those that can not even afford standard ground-grown foods? How will the natural soil be re-mediated or will it simply be left polluted forever?
Necessity is the mother of invention
One simple question. Is this film an organic based?
I think this film doesn't effect plants in any way so I think we'll get nutritious food
esos plasticos son biodegradables?
Holy shit. I want grass inside my house. LOOOOL. I WANT THAT.
search youtube geoff lawton , desertification
Will radiation penetrate through that black sheet?
格好良い~!
Hydroponic is a sound system that is know since the Maya era...
Is this technology expensive? Is this possible to use these films as a solution to nutrient-depleted soil in sub-Sahara Africa countries to increase food production?
What utter ignorance! Which sub-Saharan countries do you know have 'nutrient-deficient-soil'?
When he says it won't let anything through and was talking about radiation a second before.
isn't this known as hydroponic?
the nutrients would come from the nutrient rich liquids he was walking about as most hydroponics setups.
"John Liu Green gold" look it up on YT.
Nice technology
Your video is messing up at 3:22 mins can't see what you are talking about.. Can you please send me a better link!! I am really interested in this topic..
Thank you...
Its called intelligence.
It's pretty amazing technology but my guess is that the public will not really accept this kind of method of growing food. We all want the food to get nutrients from the ground, I guess it just sounds more natural than growing on some plastic.
This film looks like the perfect candidate for a solar powered, green chemistry remake.
This guy should to go play video games!
wooooooow
i hope its not so expinsive
Important to be able to grow food on Mars
then you can grow food in mars!!!!!!....
In the air too
Change Dubai in fertile land? Where's the nutritional water coming from ?
And what about cleaning up contaminated soil instead of covering it ?
I'd say google: John Liu large scale ecosystem restoration" for the real deal.
Who's going to be working on this radioactive Japanese farm?
It won't be the ones that promoted clean, safe nuclear power.
Well for sure if it works without side effects, it's definitely money (and a lot) for plastic producer. Agriculture in the hands of multinational companies. Farmers hands and feet tied! certainly not a business model for food sovereignty
i dont want to downvote.. simply because of the topic.. just get rid of the translator
Ultimate waste invention
I really hope we'll not gonna fall into this trap again, second green revolution. What about run off, and biodiversity, I would lik to ask him to eat is own tomatoes.
Guys monsanto will buy the right straight away, hope every one understand the importance to boycot this thing, thats gonna damage the eco system more than it already is. So many people works on how to feed the world by increasing soil and eco system, avoid run off and polution into the air and ocean, and reconnecting comunities. Can't believe Ted let him come into this conference!
Lol so have you thought about another idea of growing food
interesting technology but I can't stand this wonky translator
JESUS Christ... there is a first for everything.. ive been watching ted videos for a few years now.. and i think this is the first time ive stopped a ted video... the translation was the absolute most awful thing i have ever heard.. please fix this.. because the topic seems to be really interesting..
