Umer Adnan's TEDx Islamabad talk (Nov 26, 2015) on how cutting edge tech could be used to tackle the effects of climate change. I spoke particularly about Agriculture (Dairy) and how E4 Technologies came up with cowlar - a smart wearable for cows to help dairy farmers improve herd health, optimize dairy operations and maximize milk yields.

Editor's Notes
- Did you know that Dairy farmers sell 1 Trillion Dollars of Milk every year ? 3 of the top 5 milk producers are emerging markets like Pakistan, India & Brazil where Primitive agri-practices and climate change are affecting milk yield negatively. Dairy farms are also quite difficult to mange. Farmers want more income and somehow simply diary operations.
