INTERVIEW Dr. Jane Goodall, DBE, with Guy Kawasaki | TEDxPaloAltoSalon

On September 12th 2018, ethologist and conservationist Dr. Jane Goodall, DBE, founder of the Jane Goodall Institute & UN Messenger of Peace, spoke at TEDxPaloAltoSalon. Dr. Goodall was in conversation with Guy Kawasaki.

Jane Goodall was born on April 3, 1934, in London England. At the young age of 26, she followed her passion for animals and Africa to Gombe, Tanzania, where she began her landmark study of chimpanzees in the wild—immersing herself in their habitat as a neighbor rather than a distant observer. Her discovery in 1960 that chimps make and use tools rocked the scientific world and redefined the relationship between humans and animals.

In 1977, she established the Jane Goodall Institute (JGI) to advance her work around the world and for generations to come. JGI continues the field research at Gombe and builds on Dr. Goodall's innovative approach to conservation, which recognizes the central role that people play in the well-being of animals and the environment.

In 1991, she founded Roots & Shoots, a global program that guides young people in nearly 100 countries in becoming conservation activists and leaders in their daily lives. Today, Dr. Goodall travels the world, speaking about the threats facing chimpanzees, environmental crises and her reasons for hope. In her books and speeches, she emphasizes the interconnectedness of all living things and the collective power of individual action.

Dr. Goodall is a UN Messenger of Peace and Dame Commander of the British Empire.

Kawasaki has a BA from Stanford University and an MBA from UCLA as well as an honorary doctorate from Babson College. Jane Goodall was born on April 3, 1934, in London, England. From earliest childhood, she was fascinated by animals and the Africa she discovered in the storybooks of Tarzan and Dr. Doolittle.

In 1957, she traveled to the Kenyan farm of a friend's parents and met the famed anthropologist and paleontologist Dr. Louis Leakey. In 1960, at his invitation, she began her landmark study of chimpanzee behavior in what is now Tanzania. Her field research at what was then called Gombe Stream Chimpanzee Reserve—most notably, her discovery that chimpanzees make and use tools—revolutionized the world of primatology and redefined the relationship between humans and animals.

"We running out of time" "a deconnection between the human brain and heart" "we are destroying our only home" (our planet). Jane has great punchlines! Couldn't agree more. The world / humanity needs to go through a great redesign.

What are the things you think are wrong with society today?

[summern]

If we could choose one person in the world to live forever I would choose her.

[InnouvoVentureStudio]

This is so interesting. We need to change education and this should be taught at a young age. Would love to hear her about what makes us human.
