11:24Now PlayingChocolate is loved around the world, but its future is in danger. In this TEDx talk, biodiversity and genomics advocate Mary Napier uncovers how climate change is threatening the survival of cacao, the plant behind every chocolate bar. With rising temperatures, shrinking growing zones, and declining genetic diversity, the future of chocolate could melt away faster than we think. Mary breaks down the science, shares surprising insights from the world of plant genomics, and explains how climate action and biodiversity protection are key to saving this global favorite. This is a wakeup call for chocolate lovers, and a reminder that even small climate shifts can impact what we eat. Mary Napier is a life science strategist with a background in botany and molecular genetics. Trained at the University of WisconsinMadison, the University of Cambridge, and the University of Chicago. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at
