after much anticipation and planning, the 2018 planet forward summit began with a bang. the day started out in the jack morton auditorium with an introductory video by george washington university senior laura whaling. featuring footage from planet forward\u2019s trip to the amazon last summer, storyfest finalist olivia urbanski\u2019s video of sudan \u2014 the last male northern white rhino who passed away on march 20, and alaine johnson reporting from singapore, the video set the stage for two days of good storytelling and excitement. <\/p>\n

frank sesno, founder of planet forward and host of the conference, warmly welcomed the audience to the kickoff of a killer summit. now more than ever, he said, we need to find ways to \u201ccommunicate and connect, to engage public audiences.\u201d in a politically divided time, these stories will provide a uniting platform on which a divided population can engage in conversation. \u201cyou will simply do better if you can communicate,\u201d sesno said.<\/p>\n

tom lovejoy, the \u201cgodfather of biodiversity\u201d and founder of camp 41, a research camp located in the heart of the amazon, stepped up on stage for a short conversation with sesno. lovejoy sees the earth and environment as not just a physical system, but a linked<\/em> physical system, and he believes it crucial for humanity to recognize this fact in order to 2022年卡塔尔世界杯官网 .<\/p>\n
