Recycling Doesn't Matter - So What Does? | Terra Heilman | TEDxMtHoodSalon
Вставка
- Опубліковано 16 вер 2024
- At our first TEDxMtHood Salon, Terra Heilman (also known as The Reuser) discusses the importance of reuse, waste prevention, and waste reduction. She explains why recycling isn't solving our environmental troubles, and what actions we can take to actually make a significant impact.
Terra Heilman is a dynamic and engaging speaker who uses humor and wisdom to bring messages of "guilt-free green" to her audiences. She challenges us to live just a tiny bit lighter on the planet by changing one behavior at a time.
After working in environmental education for more than fifteen years, Terra has a message for all of us: doing the right thing by the planet doesn’t have to be hard. It doesn’t have to be sacrifice. In fact, it can bring us clarity, contentment and joy. Terra outlines how our small, everyday decisions are hurting ourselves and the planet - and then shows us how to make better decisions.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx
What's with all the hate comments? This was a well constructed, informative lecture that could help shape the world in the future and something each one of us should stop and think about if we truly care about our environment, other species and our own - our future generations.
Is that a bad thing?
She makes assumptions that are not true. I got about 30 seconds into this, then moved on.
Great speaker, thank you!
She's right about guilt being a poor motivator
Smart title! "Recycling doesn't matter - so what does? " . It attracts many views and at the ends she says that we have to do something and stop being passive
She didn’t play with kids cos the nearest ones were 1/4 mile away??? Huh that’s a 5 minute walk!!
Yes for 3-4 year old it's a piece of cake 😃
@Terraheilman Is You From The Future?
going zero waste makes you a responsible human
missed all those slides, claps for editor
How about drinking water right outta the tap? Didju forget that one?
Howard Johnson good idea. Now spread the word.
Are you deaf? Reusable bottles would usually be for that. I, in the US, cannot drink my tap water as it's orange, however.
@@wuestion9473 I'll stay with my drink of choice - HEAVY CREAM
I WENT Plastic FREE AS 2 WEEKS AGO. I AM NOT GOING TO THROW ANYTHING OUT.
I AM GOING ZERO WASTE AND YOU SHOULD TOO
Be a vegetarian and have fewer children. Every thing else is just a pointless exercise.
If it says green, I AVOID it like the plague.
I hate the thought police.
You're just stubborn; you aren't helping anyone.
Howard yu must hate children and your planet?
If you simply do the oppossite you're following someone elses thoughts and not enjoying your freedom of choice.
@@davidrojas4687 True
Can you please talk like a normal person. i like the speech just the way she says it so...........annoying.
The cookie monster is also fitting for a spirit animal because she looks like him... I assume she also eats cookies in the same way.
I assume you could be less childish
You green oregonian folks are SO superior
Howard Johnson She's better than you, that's for sure.
Because doing good is all about just trying to look superior; take a look in the mirror.
Ted Talks are going down hill - the microphone keeps peaking and voice changes volume. And does anyone appreciate the irony of incandescent light bulbs being used? Bad for the environment, beautiful as hipsters think they are ;-)
Do you think she chose the lightbulbs? By the fact that you're using 'hipsters' as an insult, I doubt you care about it anyway.
Wow... So anyone can do a ted talk, huh?
Warren Barrett Yes, why don't you, in fact?
Except you.
stop eating so much im sure that will help the plant
