A student in class has raised a great question: can Dr. Keith’s TED talk be one of your authoritative sources for the initial discussion? The answer is yes!

Watch Stewart Brand’s TED talk, the dawn of de-extinction, do some research, and respond to these questions: What is the sixth wave of extinction; is it ethical for humans to bring species back from extinction and reintroduce them to the wild?; are there any reservations you have about this?
