Eating fish? Start eating algae! | Silvia Fluch | TEDxLinz

The smallest things have the biggest influence. Ever thought about algae? You can imagine this little organism as “canned solar energy”. Maybe you are eating fish, because they are so rich of omega-3 fatty acids. That is true, but the fatty acids in the fish originate from the algae the fish is eating. So why killing the fish for Omega-3 fatty acids – we should take the direct road and use algae. Silvia Fluch is biologist and Chief Operating Officer (COO) at ecoduna produktions GmbH for larges-scale algae cultivation. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at http://ted.com/tedx
