"Corazón Salado" by Patagonia Films follows activist Ramón Navarro as he joins the Kawésqar, an Indigenous community in Chilean Patagonia, to protect their ancestral waters. The encroaching salmon industry pollutes and destroys the delicate ecosystem, forcing the Kawésqar to struggle for food.

Navarro connects with Leticia Caro and her father, Don Reinaldo, a traditional fisherman, to expose the salmon farms' damaging effects. Together, united by their love for the sea, they advocate for establishing a marine protected area within Kawésqar National Park.

Global insect populations are declining, a serious concern for entomologist Marcus Byrne due to their vital ecosystem services. While factors like pesticides and habitat loss contribute, Byrne's research strongly links this decline to rising atmospheric CO2, urging us to reduce emissions and protect these essential creatures.

Professor of entomology at Wits University, Marcus Byrne's early passion for insects was solidified at the Dung Beetle Research Unit in South Africa, where he discovered the significance of biological control and the fascinating world of dung beetles.

This talk was given at a TEDx event. Learn more at ted.com/tedx.
