Nature as Source Code | Trevor Herriot | TEDxRegina

This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. Trevor helps us find value in nature. Not only is their beauty and calmness, there is understanding and information. A speaker that not only says what's on offer but emanates that comfort with every fibre as he speaks, Trevor will have you planning an outdoor expedition in the near future.

Trevor is a prairie naturalist, activist and writer.
Trevor has written four books about life on the plains, many of which have either won or been shortlisted for major Canadian literary awards. (For more info on Trevor's books, visit his site:TreverHerriot.com.)
His writing has appeared in the Globe and Mail and Canadian Geographic, and he has written two radio documentaries for CBC Ideas. Trevor posts regularly on his grassland blog, Grass Notes, at trevorherriot.blogspot.com


About TEDx, x = independently organized event 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)
