This is the video segment of my team's final project that we did for our WPI Grand Challenges Seminar. Our project was on alternative agricultural techniques and the potential they have to meet growing food demands in an environmentally sustainable manner. We also focused heavily on the potential these techniques had to reduce global poverty. The video includes many segments from an interview and field visit we had at a home farm with Jono Neiger, an incredibly knowledgeable farmer in Massachusetts who practices sustainable farming. It also contains some clips from the Lorax cartoon to make it a little more entertaining :) Hope you like it! Oh, and here's our project abstract if you'd like to learn a little more about what we did! ABSTRACT Adequate food supply is one of the greatest problems that humanity will face in the 21st century. Earths population is expected to hit 9.5 billion by 2050. To support this population with our current practices of industrial agriculture, another billion hectares of land would have to be deforested and transformed into farmland. We do not have this land at our disposal anymore. Modern industrial agriculture is not sustainable. Its methods degrade ecosystems, contribute to greenhouse gas emissions, consume 70 percent of the worlds fresh water, and diminish biodiversity. An alternative to modern agriculture, however, does exist: forest farms. They revitalize ecosystems, are independent of artificial inputs, are more productive and ...
When the Once-ler begins to cut down the truffala trees, it's up to one man to stop him.
The Lorax is a children's book, written by Dr. Seuss and first published in 1971. It chronicles the plight of the environment and the Lorax (a mossy, bossy man-like creature resembling an Emperor Tamarin), who speaks for the trees against the greedy Once-ler. As in most of Dr. Seuss works, most of the creatures mentioned are original to the book. The book is commonly recognized as a fable concerning industrialized society, using the literary element of personification to give life to industry as the Once-ler (whose face is never shown in any of the story's illustrations or in the television special) and to the environment as the Lorax. It has become a popular metaphor for those concerned about the environment.
