While our economic systems have brought us so much good, we also face increasingly complex environmental and social issues. Our economy has existed for the last 300 years. Common (regenerative) patterns across natural systems might offer the basis for a new economy that humanity can grow upon for millennia. Will Reynolds left New Zealand in 2017 to learn from the entrepreneurs creating products to shape our future. After two years of working in London and China, he enrolled at Duke to study computer and environmental science. In summers since then, he has supported climate investments at Aera.vc (seed stage fund backing founders radically improving the climate) and Helena.org (a later-stage flexible-capital fund that backs climate&healthcare companies). Most of his research centers around preventing greenwashing in decisions, understanding ecology, and scaling technology products to real-world applications. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx

We Ourselves, Our Children, Animal Species, and Biodiversity deserve a sustainable, safe, healthy and extinction free planet. We must work together to overcome the hurdles and obstacles that are currently preventing this all for the sake of greed, need, and other special interest. We must as it is now a dire necessity. We all have a right to life. || "The world will not be destroyed by those who do evil, but by those who watch them without doing anything." - Albert Einstein
