Lessons from people already adapting to the climate crisis (via TED Talks Daily)

What On Earth

The Maasai don’t surrender. They adapt. So says Dorcas Naishorua, the world’s first Miss Climate.

In a special bonus episode from TED Talks Daily, she explains how climate change has disrupted the melody of the Maasai way of life, and how girls are bearing the brunt of that disruption. In her talk, she advocates for a different vision for her people — one that includes Maasai girls laughing.

“We are learning, we are evolving, and embracing innovation to rewrite the narrative of our struggle.”
