And this is the kind of activity that we can see with high-definition video, because the bandwidth of these cables is so huge that we could have five to 10 stereo HD
systems
running continuously and, again, directed through robotic techniques from land.
Robotics
systems
are just incredible these days, absolutely incredible.
We pump the fluid through one of these systems, and we press the button, and it's analyzed for the genomic character.
We can construct six and a half million different stereo
systems
out of the components that are on offer in one store.
And they have these
systems
where you can level-up.
We have the power in our hands to ensure that livestock production
systems
are not only healthy, productive and profitable, but that farmers are knowledgeable, and more importantly, that our farmers are safe.
And this is where I think we can take a leaf out of
systems
theory,
systems
engineers, where they create feedback loops, put the right information at the right point of time.

systems
on Earth.
Yes, coral reef
systems.
Biodiverse, low-nutrient, hard coral
systems
under multiple pressures of overfishing, unsustainable tourism, climate change.
A trigger and the system tips over, loses its resilience, soft corals take over, and we get undesired
systems
that cannot support economic and social development.
And could we even, thanks to major advancements in Earth
systems
science, identify the thresholds, the points where we may expect nonlinear change?
But it shows that we are interconnected, among many
systems
on the planet, with the three big systems, climate change, stratospheric ozone depletion and ocean acidification being the three big systems, where the scientific evidence of large-scale thresholds in the paleo-record of the history of the planet.
But it changes fundamentally our governance and management paradigm, from the current linear, command and control thinking, looking at efficiencies and optimization towards a much more flexible, a much more adaptive approach, where we recognize that redundancy, both in social and environmental systems, is key to be able to deal with a turbulent era of global change.
We have to invest in persistence, in the ability of social
systems
and ecological
systems
to withstand shocks and still remain in that desired cup.
There's good news here, for example, from Latin America, where plow-based farming
systems
of the '50s and '60s led farming basically to a dead-end, with lower and lower yields, degrading the organic matter and fundamental problems at the livelihood levels in Paraguay, Uruguay and a number of countries, Brazil, leading to innovation and entrepreneurship among farmers in partnership with scientists into an agricultural revolution of zero tillage
systems
combined with mulch farming with locally adapted technologies, which today, for example, in some countries, have led to a tremendous increase in area under mulch, zero till farming which, not only produces more food, but also sequesters carbon.
Well, interestingly, and based on my work and others in Africa, for example, we've shown that even the most vulnerable small-scale rainfall farming systems, with innovations and supplementary irrigation to bridge dry spells and droughts, sustainable sanitation
systems
to close the loop on nutrients from toilets back to farmers' fields, and innovations in tillage systems, we can triple, quadruple, yield levels on current land.
Is this headed here, where we can have distributed
systems
with the right infrastructure to provide power for our hospitals and our schools?
So there's a generation of these companies that are out there doing this work and creating thousands of jobs, creating, selling, tens of thousands of these solar systems, so bringing tens of thousands of families into light, and tackling that big $1 billion problem that I talked about at the beginning, and really innovating.
She has designed a software tool that allows her team to better design the power
systems
for engineering.
Self-organizing
systems
also always show emergence, which is that the system starts to do things, which it was never designed for.

systems.
And then rework the level of the health care systems, building stronger health care
systems.
Our health care
systems
are broken.
They're basically fouling up Earth's respiratory and circulatory
systems.
We've created systems, which systematically privilege, encourage, one narrow quadrant of the human soul and left the others unregarded.
Okay, so I want to show you just two more interfaces, because I think one of our big challenges is re-imagining our relationship to natural systems, not only through this model of twisted personalized health, but through the animals with whom we cohabit.
And what I like to think of is this is an interface that re-scripts how we interact with natural systems, specifically by changing who has information, where they have it, who can make sense of that information, and what you can do about it.
But when we chose to wield our swords and shields to battle bad systems, that's when we saw change.
There's been a lot of movement recently in greening our food
systems.
