    How incredibly irresponsible for this person to claim fear is strictly information. Fear is also very much important to keeping us alive. That fact, and emotion, is a VITAL component of fear.

If you ate bread this week (or cooked with salt and oil), you probably benefited from something millions miss out on: food fortification.

Laying out a pragmatic vision to improve food systems globally, he reminds us that hunger doesn’t always look like an empty plate. (Recorded at TED2026 on April 14, 2026)
