How will planet Earth feed more people in the next century while increasing sustainability? One solution comes from tiny plants called micro-algae, with their high nutrients, vitamins and food value. Chuck Greene is a world leader in looking at this solution, and will talk about its need and its promise

Can we create a global food production system that meets society's projected nutritional requirements while simultaneously reducing its carbon, land, and freshwater footprints to levels consistent with our sustainability goals?
