- Sharing the inside scoop on how the world's largest food company aims to reach net zero by 2050, Nestlé North America CEO Steve Presley joins TED's Lindsay Levin to discuss the progress they've made so far and where they're investing for sustainability. A big focus will be regenerative agriculture -- producing food in a way that helps the planet instead of harming it -- by working with farmers and other partners across the entire food production process.

Thinking of nestle as nutritional food or just food for that matter ,is like thinking of cigarettes as healthy sticks ..
I don't think Nestlé are a trustworthy company in any way shape or form.
Nestle: We still use slave labor!
I hear the package, but the contents are too vague...
Nestlé is super shady, and proud for not doing much. Nasty
You're absolutely right. Produce and buy local, support small farms. Multinational corporates aren't the solution.
The real question is do they deserve the chance to do so
well "they" are actually us also, the consumer who fuel their success.
@@b-building not exactly. We dont need food companies, at least not as they exist today. They're just a middleman
It's not about deserving or not. They have a lot of power, so if they were to do it, they would make quick massive change. The problem is that there's no incentive for them to really make any changes that would fit even the loosest standards of sustainability .
@@mitkoogrozev I agree with all of this. I will say my question is important because we as the people have the power to change it all. I wish we would band together to do something but that takes a lot of time unfortunately
@@adamknott7830 we could start by growing our fruits and vegetables instead of lawns... it's revolutionary, it's funny and healthy.
They can... But they won't. Because it would cost them some margin and the investors would get mad.
Ted: brought to you by Nestle
A company which is looking to source 50% of it's inputs from regenerative Ag farmlands
@@B01 I heard a loto of greenwashing. Support local farmers, buy local, eliminate intermediaries. Corporates aren't the solution.
And here was me thinking that TED was a credible source.
Is it the same Nestlè selling, bottled, the water taken from the springs owned by those same citizens by law? The same Nestlè still operating in Russia? Tell us about the billions of unrecyclable Nescafè coffee pods thrown into landfills... Please, do not insult our intelligence.
Hear hear!
Food Products are just Products... not Food.
Terrible company. He even said profitability before anything else.
Just consult the wikipedia page of Nestlé and you will get much more accurate info than that piece of advertisement! Sorry, but was Lindsay Levin force to hand in the question in advance? "Where are you not moving fast enough yet" is the only seemingly critical question and the answer that he gives is a joke: Basically, 1. the state has to do more and 2. the competition has to do more. Yeah, sure Nestle!
What about water issues in California.
TED. Marketing worth fact checking.
He wants to double wheat production. How. More scarce water?
Do I really want to hear zero waste from a food company? Where is the waste going? IN OUR FOOD!
I was looking for this series!
As long as there are profit commitments to 1% shareholders we can expect the climate to suffer. If nestlé wants to prove it's commitment to climate health it will start spending its advertising dollars lobbying political leaders globally to press for realistic climate law instead of passing laws that mandate profitability to shareholders over the well-being of the people that they interact with.
They are pushing Regen ag into main stream, they have made strides...put your eco efforts towards Bayer if you want to confront the true problem with agriculture
what an ignorant say, do Asia and africa care about climate change? - no, and so we should not.
This is an insightful topic to discuss. We learn so many significant and impactful lessons along the way.
I would like him to stop making pizza...
Or I would like the U.S. to stop making pizza.
The fact people are focused on nestles quality of their products is sad because it makes zero difference as to the validity of his true and dire message that we need a paradigm shift of farming practices in America and the rest of the world. Your fight is against Bayer, not the few companies actively trying to push regen ag to the front like nestle and few select others
After watching this I am certain I will never ever buy one of your products , which are not real food and are destroying the soil and the livelihoods of millions of people
Nestle Is the worst
Theyre both from nestle tho?? I saw her on @dwnews
