Az összefüggések piros lufija | Erzsébet Némedi | TEDxGyőr
HUN:Nincs olyan dolog, tudás, tudomány a földön, ami nem függ össze minden más dologgal, tudással, tudománnyal.A világunk mindig egyetlen összefüggő dinamikus rendszer volt, csak igyekeztünk részeire szabdalni. Jól definiálható részekre, melyek határai biztonságot adtak az egyén és a közösség számára egyaránt. Azonban a részek közötti összefüggések lassan feledésbe merültek. Pedig ott, a tudáshalmazok találkozásánál lehetnek a válaszaink az emberiség feszítő problémáira.El kell kezdenünk ezeket a néha idegennek tűnő területeket feltérképezni, az emlékeinket az összefüggésekről előhozni, megnézni végre nincs-e a megoldás arra valahol. Ehhez viszont kapcsolódnunk kell egymással, megérteni egymás nézőpontjait sokkal jobban és nyitottabban, mint azt valaha tettük.Nekünk, egyéneknek hatalmas hatásunk van a rendszerre, de függünk épségétől.
Képzeljük el, ha mindenki csupán egy lépést tesz naponta magáér! Az 7 milliárd lépés naponta mindannyiunkért.Hozzuk elő az emlékeink, kapcsoljuk össze az egyetemes tudást, mert kezünkben a megoldás.ENG: There is nothing—no knowledge or science on Earth—that isn’t connected to everything else.
Our world has always been a single, interconnected, dynamic system. We simply tried to carve it up into parts. Clearly defined parts whose boundaries offered a sense of safety to both individuals and communities. But over time, the connections between these parts have been forgotten. Yet it is precisely at the intersections of these bodies of knowledge that we may find answers to humanity’s most pressing problems.We need to begin exploring these sometimes unfamiliar territories, to revive our memory of the connections, to look carefully and see whether the solution might already be there somewhere. But for this, we must connect with one another and understand each other’s perspectives far more deeply and openly than we ever have before.We, as individuals, have an enormous impact on the system—but we also depend on its integrity.
Just imagine if everyone took a single step each day for our shared future! That would be 7 billion steps every day for all of us.Let’s reclaim those connections in our memory, let’s weave together our universal knowledge—because the solution is in our hands. Erzsébet’s career began when she was just a young child, taken for the first time by her father into a confectionery factory. She was enchanted by the clatter of the machines, the heat of the ovens, and the sweet, aromatic scents of the products. At the same time, she also saw that producing safe, consistent products required many additives, generated unnecessary waste in the system, and that human health was hardly a consideration in the industry back then.When she earned her degrees in food engineering and biotechnology, she still didn’t feel prepared enough for the kind of paradigm shift she believed was needed. She focused on accumulating experience, gathering diverse perspectives, and never followed the mainstream—whether as a researcher, a manager at a multinational company, or when she founded Hungary’s first multidisciplinary agency for food science and nutrition research and development.They began introducing a new way of thinking into manufacturing facilities, working with experts who proposed complex solutions to complex problems. They transferred best practices across industries and developed high-quality, premium, and delicious products that few dared to undertake. They investigated hard-to-detect spoilage processes and resolved complicated food law issues. Her recommendations carried weight, and clients turned to them when they needed contract manufacturers, ingredient suppliers, or new company strategies.She became the kind of problem-solver for this beautiful industry that she had always wanted to be—backed by a doctoral dissertation, an international career, and countless trainings, lectures, articles, and case studies.She believes that deep knowledge, continuous renewal, the integration of sciences and experience, and innovations that truly serve our world can help bring about a time when we can produce nourishing food from far more diverse ingredients, with great flavors and without waste. Whether we will be motivated enough to achieve this—and to create a fairer distribution of resources before critical global tipping points—is a much harder question.
