What part of the economy doesn't depend on nature, asks Tony Juniper, a campaigner, writer, and sustainability adviser. If there is no nature, he argues, there can be no economy, no growth, no business. The solution, Tony Juniper says, is a shift to the bio-economy where our economic system is a subset of nature, and not the other way around. Watch and see if you agree.

Tony Juniper, campaigner and writer, speaks about the link between economy and nature at TEDxWWF.

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)
