3 rules for a zero-carbon world | Nigel Topping | TED Talk

The TED Talk “3 rules for a zero-carbon world” offers a fresh take on sustainability and sustainable energy. How can noticing patterns help us make logical connections, influence our actions and guide us to better solutions? In this talk, speaker Nigel Topping explains how every human and natural system — from oil extraction to the flight of a flock of starlings — can be seen as a set of repeating patterns. Topping shares stories and examples to explain how these patterns can be disrupted for good or for bad. He also shares three rules of radical collaboration that could positively disrupt the patterns of the global economy and help humanity tackle the world’s greatest threat: climate change.
