Solving climate change demands bold experiments and a fundamental societal restructuring to achieve carbon neutrality. This massive effort requires global unity, akin to WWII, to reverse polarization and re-establish trust in collective action.

Jan Sendzimir, a systems ecologist with international experience, collaborates with scientists and laypeople to help communities address climate warming risks like droughts, floods, and fires. He uses modeling and field research within participatory processes to guide sustainable development in various river systems and the Sahel region.

At the 2020 TEDxTUWien event "Energy," Caroline Schlinter-Maltan explored how nutrition impacts our energy levels. She provided insights into both the functional and well-being aspects of food selection, emphasizing mindfulness regarding its effects on our energy balance. Schlinter-Maltan, an Austrian nutrition and sensory scientist, challenged the notion of "energy kick" products, highlighting that no single food provides an instant boost.

Instead, she offered valuable, practical tips to enhance concentration and mental performance. Her unique nutritional formula aims to foster a balanced energy level, leading to improved motivation, productivity, and resilience in professional and personal lives. She argues that mindful energy management on an individual nutritional level can profoundly influence whole societies. Join the event: tedxtuwien.at. Learn more about TEDx: ted.com/tedx.

The fashion industry's "take-make-waste" model is highly wasteful and polluting. A 2017 Ellen MacArthur Foundation report revealed that a truckload of garments is landfilled or incinerated

The fashion industry's "take-make-waste" model is highly wasteful and polluting. A 2017 Ellen MacArthur Foundation report revealed that a truckload of garments is landfilled or incinerated globally every second.

Transforming fashion requires a circular approach, beginning with initiatives like the Jeans Redesign. Over 80 denim experts developed guidelines ensuring jeans are used longer, easily recycled, and produced sustainably, benefiting both the environment and garment workers.

Leading participants, including Gap and H&M, are already implementing these guidelines. Learn more about the Jeans Redesign project here.
