Extractive farming practices have driven a planetary emergency, depleting nature and impacting climate, biodiversity, and public health. With agriculture using half our land, farmers are crucial stewards. We must redesign systems from extraction to regeneration and sustainability.

In this talk, Henry Dimbleby, lead non-executive director for DEFRA and architect of the National Food Strategy, addresses the complexity of food systems and the urgent need for a common language to measure farming sustainability.

Henry co-founded Leon Restaurants, the Sustainable Restaurant Association, and Chefs in Schools, bringing extensive expertise to this TEDx event. Learn more at ted.com/tedx.

The Northern White Rhinoceros is functionally extinct due to poaching, with only two individuals remaining. A video featuring Dr. Barbara Durrant explores whether the San Diego Zoo Safari Park's "frozen zoo" can reverse this. This unique biotech facility aims to use in vitro fertilization to implant a Northern White Rhino embryo into a closely related Southern White Rhino. If successful, this groundbreaking procedure could rescue critically endangered species and potentially resurrect extinct ones.
