2022 TEDx Talk | “A Wilder Way: How Plants Can Guide Our Future” by Charlotte Lorick

Watch Conservationist and Naturalist Charlotte Lorick’s TEDx talk about how paying closer attention to plants in our local environment can lead to profound ecological benefits.

Are we plant blind? Do we notice what’s growing in our backyards, along the roads, in our local parks? Plants are critical to the functioning of ecosystems and life on Earth and yet most of us don’t even think about what’s growing outside our doors. Learn what can happen when we start to pay attention to plants again and why we can’t afford not to. Learn how even small conservation actions that are accessible to all of us can have a profound positive impact on the planet.

This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
