Did you miss the collection of rock stars in Davos recently? Apparently celebrating the leaders who collapsed the world economys and profited from it is a good thing?

From talk to action in Davos
I was fortunate enough to once again sit in on a session at the World Economic Forum in Davos this week. The topic was Climate Smart Agriculture and how to tackle the challenge of food security in a sustainable way.
I have been in Davos earlier, the first time in 2010, listening in on similar topics, and have always been a bit depressed about all the talk and the lack of action.
However, this time was different. Seeing people from politics, science, civil society, businesses and the farming community eagerly discuss concrete measures for responding to both climate change and food security, made me realize one thing: We already have the technology and knowledge to make significant improvements.
What we need are ways for the political, corporate and academic sectors to work together, to put the technology and knowledge to work.
For instance like they have done in Vietnam, where coffee growers have managed to increase output while reducing water usage and their carbon footprints.
The discussions around the different tables this week - all unconstrained by the lack of journalists in the room - made me optimistic. Hoping we can move from talk to concrete action.
We sure could need it.
Can someone please explain Brandon's hair to me?
Please?
