- You can live a life in balance with Nature. Nick Ritar, permaculture farmer and educator can teach us how.
In this talk at TEDxCanberra 2011, Nick Ritar challenges us to overcome the fears we have built up as a society and to embrace a more sustainable lifestyle; one embodied by permaculture.
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 brilliant talk on a subject no one wants to think about but a subject that is critical to our future none the less. How can we possibly create a sustainable society when we ignore such a phenomenal resource. More than ignore it, we allow it to be the cause of major pollution problems throughout the world.
Congratulations Nick for having the wherewithal to highlight this issue in a calm, rational and reasonable way. We have a long way to go but the discussion has to start somewhere!
Nick,....you're an educated and appreciated speaker for sure.....you along with men like Jeoff Lawton will be changing the world. Nick's delivery of information uses a combination of 'fact, excellent voice inflection and' living the story...
Very well said and presented. A fun talk to watch.
That was really informative and inspiring, thank you! Much of the battle will be people's ignorance or social stigma, but some will be local or national regulations, which both need to change, clearly. With global warming causing real havoc and fossil fuel usage in industrial agriculture practices causing more pollution than all of transport globally, there's never been a better time for humans to consider what on earth, literally, they are doing with their own output. I'll be adding collected urine from the bathroom to my garden and compost heap from now on. It's a start!
Thank you Nick, most counties will not allow composting toilets we have to change that way of thinking with our local government officials
I think it was mentioned because of the era in which he lived, and to give the reason why someone who was so loyal to Germany would move to England.
can i use your talk on TED for my assignment ?
great stuff, great speaker >> poo's cool!
I noticed that too, but no harm no foul right?
I am duly impressed that a 12 year old is getting rich off his Justin Bieber whack-a-mole game app. His Ted Talk is at 7.9 million views. Of course, a Ted Talk that describes one of the most important solutions to our future food production on this planet is of interest to a small fraction of viewers.
If poop were so valuable, people would pay a lot of $ for it.
VidSmoFit millions of poops mixed with millions of gallons of water creates a very difficult engineering challenge.
why the need to point out that he was a Jew? Do we make a point to announce everyone's religion when we discuss their role in History?
wait for boils and other bacterial deceases allover body. nothing new in developing countries.
iAm Khan learn about infectious disease and compost toilets. I am not suggesting putting human faeces directly onto food crops. news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2014/02/140202-peecycling-urine-human-waste-compost-fertilizer/
