This video highlights how a nature-inspired healing process is transforming coral reef restoration. With over half of the world's living coral lost since 1950 due to climate change, pollution, and overfishing, traditional coral farming methods are often insufficient.

Startup Coral Vita addresses this by using micro fragmentation in land-based farms, growing climate-resilient corals up to 50 times faster than in nature. This innovative approach helps restore dying reefs globally.

Coral Vita was a finalist for the 2022 Ray of Hope Prize, which supports nature-inspired solutions for environmental challenges. Learn more at Coral Vita and the Ray of Hope Accelerator.

Pioneers John Elkington, Bjorn Stigson, Doug Miller, and David Suzuki fear climate change issues may worsen before improving. They believe unity and meaningful progress will only occur when daily life disruptions force a realization of the connection between actions and consequences.

This perspective is from one of twenty Ray Anderson Memorial Interviews. These interviews are part of The Regeneration Project, a collaborative initiative by Sustainability and GlobeScan.

Universities often teach subjects in isolation. Imagine the effort Fiona Charnley of Exeter University put into developing a cross-campus MSc on the circular economy. Similarly, consider the challenge Chris Grantham, a lead designer at IDEO, faced in convincing colleagues about a new, circular approach to product design.

Charnley and Grantham will share how they achieved these remarkable changes. They will discuss who they needed to persuade and their strategies. Learn valuable lessons from those who have successfully driven institutional change.

Biofertilizers, which use living soil microbes to enhance plant growth, face a challenge: delicate bacteria often die on the shelf before application. Inspired by resilient tardigrades and silkworm silk, Ivu Biologics developed a biodegradable seed coating. This innovation extends microbe shelf-life, boosting crop yields, restoring soil health, and reducing the need for conventional fertilizers and pesticides.

Ivu Biologics was a finalist for the 2022 Ray of Hope Prize. The Ray of Hope Accelerator (formerly Prize), created in honor of Ray C. Anderson, supports nature-inspired solutions for environmental and sustainability challenges. This program fosters innovative startups like Ivu Biologics, contributing to a sustainable and resilient world.
