Climate change. Habitat destruction. Desertification. Biodiversity loss. Scientists predict a grim future for life on Earth—a future we are already beginning to inhabit.

But can the Earth be healed?

John D. Liu—journalist, documentary filmmaker, and ecologist—comes to the i³: ideas that inform and inspire stage to show us the way to repair much of the damage we’ve wrought to our planet.

Mr. Liu, who has been working tirelessly on the Earth’s behalf for the past 30 years, will discuss paradigm-shifting ways that can restore some of the Earth’s most damaged habitats.

His documentary work on the Loess Plateau—a once fertile land of 250,000 square miles, abused by aggressive agricultural practices, but later restored into a flourishing landscape—was the inspiration for his documentary film Hope in a Changing Climate, which has earned international acclaim.

Liu is convinced that ecosystems possess innate potential, and that ecologically degraded landscapes can be regenerated and turned into thriving, fertile habitats that can sustain life.

Don’t miss this Conversations with Big Thinkers event and hear Mr. Liu’s fascinating and hopeful ideas about our environment. Humans have destroyed parts of our planet, but humans have the capacity to bring new life back to Earth.
