The TEDxXinyi video featured architect Dolly Lin's "green DNA" concept, a sustainable approach to urban design. A trailblazer with nearly 40 years in the industry, Lin advocates for integrating nature into our living environments, from homes to cities. Her work includes the sustainable Xinyi Taipei building, an iconic structure using recyclable materials, and her YangMinShan home, which exemplifies self-cooling design and indoor-outdoor integration while preserving memories. She also influenced the Taiwan IKEA flagship store's community green initiatives.

Lin's "green DNA" vision aims to foster education and innovation, creating spaces that connect people with nature and build lasting memories. This talk was given at a TEDx event. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx.

Green and digital transitions are interconnected and mutually reinforcing, crucial for a just future. Digital technologies aid environmental management, while sustainability guides digital solutions. These transitions will create new jobs, offset some losses, and demand new skills for all.

This session will explore the essential effects of these transitions on jobs and skills, identifying required skills (digital and beyond) to mitigate climate change impacts. It will also highlight policy measures and good practices for skills development.

Moderated by Anne Shannon Baxter (GSMA), panelists include Olga Strietska-Ilina (International Labour Organization), Nanko Madu (AfriLabs), Dr. Mindel Van de Laar (United Nations University – MERIT and Maastricht University), and Robert Marinkovic (International Organisation of Employers).

Jeff Corwin joins conservationists in California to protect pinnipeds, including elephant seals and sea lions. Organizations like the Marine Mammal Care Center and Defenders of Wildlife are crucial in rescuing and rehabilitating these animals, which face severe threats from climate change, overfishing, habitat loss, and plastic pollution.

Corwin assists Dr. Lauren Palmer and Andy Johnson in rehabilitating four malnourished California sea lion pups, one of whom ingested plastic. After critical care, tagging, and weighing, the pups are successfully released back into the wild. This effort underscores the vital role of conservation in giving endangered animals a second chance and addressing environmental challenges for ecosystem health.
