Henry Miller proposes two essential guidelines for local climate change adaptation. First, communities must understand their local hydrographic system (watershed) and its integration with ecological, economic, social, and political subsystems to develop effective planning. Second, clear communication with stakeholders is crucial for education, motivation, and short-term decision-making.

With over two decades of experience in the Mexican countryside, Miller has worked directly with rural and indigenous populations, bridging cultures and organizations to foster community development and sustainable resource management. He directs El Maíz Más Pequeño, a non-profit promoting adaptive governance and ecological territorial management in Mexico. This talk was given at a TEDx event.

For decades, we've understood climate change, or global warming, caused by CO2 emissions from fossil fuels. This intensifies the greenhouse effect, raising global temperatures, melting ice, and collapsing ecosystems. Society's slow response has been alarming, but contemporary climate activism, particularly from young people, now offers hope. Radical systemic changes are crucial for humanity's survival.

Jakub Hrbáň, a Slovak coordinator for "Fridays For Future," embodies this movement. After high school, he joined the 2019 climate strike and studied global challenges in Sweden. He now leads "Miznúca Domovina," a project educating the public on the climate crisis, blending ecology, education, and passion. This talk was given at a TEDx event.
