climate will never be solved – it is cyclical and cycles like solar loading, volcanoes and shifting of oceans heating and cooling are kinda out of climate cultists control – like solving the economy – the more you try – the worse the results

But it we are in one of those cooling cycles right now, so the past cycles are irrelevant

Beautiful woman with beautiful thoughts. Thank you for such a great TED talk. Global warming and climate change is a big problem and our governments should really take care of it. We in Pakistan have grown more than 10 billion trees in past few years and the number are still increasing. This initiative was taken by our Prime minster Imran khan and we really appreciate him for this act. ✌

She has taken a very great initiative but the big corps would take the knowledge make ten fold profits not give credit !!! We need the indigenous people to sustain survive and prosper where they are. Unfortunately the common man is too engulfed in his day to day to research and see where is the source and how it’s getting to them. Perfect example pls listen to Vandana shiva DR from India who goes at length to show how Monsanto has robbed all the Indian farmers of their daily wages and livelihood! She goes to explain the the women in Himalayan region have saved the planet little but it’s not going to last because at the end it’s the corrupt corporations ruling the world !!!

Due to colonisation African knowledge systems were stigmatised and practitioners called “pseudo”. It still happens today when an African scientist discovers something or challenges long-standing western science from only a few hundred years ago. An example is Dr Bennett Omalu (Will Smith played him in the movie Concussion), a Nigerian doctor who discovered a disease affecting NFL players. He faced such discredit because he was African only to be proved right. This is a battle to restore African intelligence and the west have been doing all they can to suppress it, destroying our history and even claiming much of it as theirs. We even have advanced solutions in things such as mental health and many more. Africa has to remember herself and look to educate the young people on her discoveries for which they is a massive plethora of. As it stands we are still teaching our children that the world began from when they arrived and that the western man even discovered our land which is insane. The western man views science in disciplines and disparately whereas Afrikan science knows about the interrelatedness between and within everything. This is why the western man destroys the environment and nature for profit while we lived in harmony with it. We have to decolonise the education system, how, one way could be to teach about gravity but not about Isaac Newton himself. We also need to teach about our ancient systems and standardise some of them. This will empower the next generation to start to re-imagine the old discoveries and create new ones.
