How your purchasing decisions can save our most endangered ecosystem. | Marshall Johnson | TEDxFargo
What if something as simple as changing your purchasing decisions could save the world: would you do it? The world’s native grasslands are unequivocally imperiled, along with the birds and
What if something as simple as changing your purchasing decisions could save the world: would you do it? The world’s native grasslands are unequivocally imperiled, along with the birds and ecosystem services dependent on healthy native grasslands, wetlands and soils. In his TEDxFargo talk, Marshall shares the reality of how our marketplace decision can help farmers and ranchers conserve grasslands through regenerative grazing, and encourages people to seek out foods that are better for you and better for the land, thus becoming a regeneration, and making every day, our own Earth Day. Marshall Johnson is the Executive Director of Audubon Dakota and the Vice-President of the National Audubon Society. For the past decade, his team has built rural and urban community-focused habitat and ecosystem programs. His work in the Dakotas brings farmers and ranchers together with grasslands, herds, and birds into win-win alignment. Audubon's radical, market-based Conservation Ranching Program now enrolls more than 2,000,000 acres across 60 ranches. Under his leadership, Audubon Dakota’s Urban Woods and Prairie Initiative manages the largest urban conservation program in the Northern Great Plains. Marshall was selected from TEDxFargo Open Mic This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.

Illegally Caught Fish Are Ending Up On Americans' Plates
A new Oceana report reveals that the illegal seafood trade, partly fueled by U.S. demand, devastates fishing communities worldwide. Oceana advocates for expanded traceability and transparency
A new Oceana report reveals that the illegal seafood trade, partly fueled by U.S. demand, devastates fishing communities worldwide. Oceana advocates for expanded traceability and transparency requirements for all seafood imports.

Despite being the world's largest seafood importer, the U.S. Seafood Import Monitoring Program (SIMP) covers only 13 species, leaving 60% of imports vulnerable to illegal, unreported, and unregulated (IUU) fishing. This loophole allowed an estimated $2.4 billion in IUU seafood into the U.S. market in 2019, causing global economic and ecological damage.

Oceana urges President Biden to expand SIMP to include all imported seafood and implement comprehensive "net to plate" traceability to protect ocean health and livelihoods.
