Want to learn something new? Want to be inspired? Want to open up your eyes to new perspectives, ideas, and possibilities? TED Talks and TEDx Talks do just that.
TED is a nonprofit organization whose mission is to spread ideas. TED started as a one-off conference in 1984 about Technology, Entertainment, and Design, has since expanded to include a diversity of topics. Week-long TED conferences are held two or more times a year where attendees listen to inspiring talks by expert speakers. The best of these talks are then posted online and are made freely available to everyone. TEDx, which is created with TED's mission, but independently run, brings the talks to a local level, to communities around the world.
There are thousands of talks from which to view. You can browse by topics. For example, environmentally-related topics can be as general as "Ecology", "Environment", or "Nature". It can also be as specific as "Bees", "Climate change", or "Plastic".
