Dr. Nathan Basiliko presents an engaging talk on climate change, the biosphere and its impact on the north. He addresses climate change and the role of the biosphere in the global climate system, with an emphasis on introducing ecosystem types and roles in Central and Northern Ontario. Basiliko says climate change also affects our food supply and water security. Moreover, forestry has a large part to play in combating climate change. He also describes how soil microbes in these wetlands and forests are largely going to mediate these feedbacks.

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
