Have you ever gotten yourself to a point of stress or discomfort whenever you hit the road in your vehicle riding through the city, especially during peak hours? In Jakarta, this feeling is not only experienced by motorists, but also pedestrians trying to escape the chaos to the less than ample sidewalks. Even then, they often become the victim of endangering activities of people in their vehicles, such as motorcycles to avoid traffic, as well as street vendors. Alfred Sitorus, an avid cyclist, humanist, commuter, and one of the founders & initiators of the Jakarta Pedestrian Coalition, will discuss his efforts to protect the home of the pedestrians and avoid its misuse, the sidewalk. Alfred and his peers founded the coalition back in 2011, which arises from the question of ‘who does the sidewalk actually belong to?’. Ever since, the coalition has set their goals as to return the sidewalks to its rightful owners. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx Alfred Sitorus is an avid cyclist, a humanist, commuter and is one of the founders & initiators of the Jakarta Pedestrian Coalition. As with their name, they are a small but fierce group that are always fighting for the rights of all pedestrians in Indonesia. Alfred along with a couple of his peers and fellow pedestrians founded the coalition in 2011, which arises from the question of ‘who does the sidewalk actually belong to?’ when at the time, it was very common to see motorcycles and street vendors using the sidewalk and endangering pedestrians using it. Ever since, the coalition has set their goal as to return the sidewalks to its rightful owners. To achieve this, Alfred alongside the coalition has various campaigns from guerilla ‘sidewalk sightseeing’ campaigns to raise awareness, supporting for the advent of National Pedestrian Day to emphasize the importance of pedestrian safety to social audits which will uphold the standard of quality of the public facilities built by the government.

LEGO, who doesn't know it!? Every year, more than 90,000 tons of plastic are being produced into millions of LEGO bricks... 99% of the people we know have LEGO either in the playroom of their children or in the attic, where it is stored for the next generation of LEGO enthusiasts. It is called the most sustainable toy because generations keep it and pass it on. Talk about CHANGE! BUT, how are you going to make sure that the world's largest tire manufacturer, which processes tons of plastic into bricks, is, next to the already durability of their toys, even more environmentally friendly by 2030! Nelleke spent the first 18 years of her life in Rotterdam. She grew up in an environment where change was commonplace: in the centre of the once heavily battered city there was still a large area of sand that slowly transformed into a residential environment that radiated ambition. She learned the meaning of the phrase 'stop talking, start working'. Nelleke went to study at the Technical University of Delft, where she was to be found during the day in the lecture halls and the laboratory, and in the evenings in the company of her fraternity friends. After her PhD dissertation, she was given the opportunity to work in the US, at a company 15 miles away from The Big Apple. There she learned how to design chemical processes and how to test them in the laboratory and on a pilot scale. She also saw the power of diversity in the big city of New York. With the arrival of the internet and high tech hype at the beginning of this century she got the opportunity to work in a high tech start-up called Avantium Technologies located in Amsterdam. In the more than 13 years with that company she learned even more about the chemical industry and how people can collaborate best on technical challenges. In those years she gave birth to two beautiful sons who, just like her, are curious about the world and people. In 2014 she was given the opportunity to work at a dream job at The LEGO Group, where she and her team are working on the materials required for today's stones and the materials that will need to be used for the stones of the future.

Viral Shah, an Indian Computer Scientist, brings into light how computation can work towards solving some of the world’s biggest climate change issues. Bringing a fresh insight to getting involved in the social impact space through the Julia Language, his very own creation, Viral Shah, who is the co-founder and CEO of Julia Computing, brings forward opportunities through which students can get involved in making a difference and following their ambitions in tandem. Emphasizing on the steady growth of the Technology Industry, his talk strongly conveyed the importance and necessity of computation to solve global issues, motivating students to take a leap of faith and delve deeper into their interests within the industry. Viral Shah is an Indian computer scientist and is the co-founder and CEO of Julia Computing. Albeit a common belief that productivity and performance do not function in tandem in programming, he defied the odds through co-creation of the Julia Language, a high impact language that is now widely adopted all across the world. He was actively involved in the Aadhaar Project, which provided Indian residents a 12-digit unique identity number based on their biometric and demographic data. Based on his vast experience and exposure within this industry and with regard to the government of India, he co-authored the Book Rebooting India; a call to reshape the country. In 2019, he was awarded the J. H. Wilkinson Prize for Numerical Software for his work on the Julia Programming Language, and in 2013, he received The Spatial Ecology and Telemetry Working Group (SETWG) award for the co-creation of Circuitscape.

How greenhouse gas emissions from rice can be minimised through regenerative production

The global food system generates 20-30% of greenhouse gas emissions, largely from production. Conventional rice production, a staple for over half the world, alone generates emissions equivalent

The global food system generates 20-30% of greenhouse gas emissions, largely from production. Conventional rice production, a staple for over half the world, alone generates emissions equivalent to global aviation. The System of Rice Intensification (SRI) offers an agroecological solution.

SRI employs simple interventions to significantly reduce water use, methane, and chemicals, while boosting yields and cutting labor. Currently 4% of rice production, scaling SRI to 25% could reduce emissions equivalent to India's total output.
