Our planet is a beautiful but fragile being. For generations, we have used the wondrous nutrients in our soil for agriculture, food, and more. But what is its future? Join Kris Taylor as he discusses the future of our planet and how he plans to save the magic in our soil. Kris Taylor is the Director of the Living Soils Symposium and VP of Production for Lumen. He. Loves. Soil. So much so that Kris ditched his invitation to matriculate into medical school for a path that lead him to discover the world-saving potential of regenerative agriculture.

Kris enjoys working in his free time. No joke... he's on a long mission to change the face of modern industrialized agriculture and to show other millennials that they too can be changemakers if they put themselves out there. In the time he does take off, he's definitely either indulging in Netflix or on a good hike.

He's most excited about returning to Dallas to speak to the community he grew up in. As a native Texan, he knows that some of the biggest environmental change needs to happen deep in the heart of the lone star state. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
