Countdown is a new global initiative from TED to accelerate solutions to the climate crisis. The Countdown talks from leading climate experts, activists, and change makers were live streamed back on October 10th, but the good news is that we can still watch and discuss each of the talks which are both inspiring and educational.

The Countdown talks ( https://www.ted.com/series/countdown )
are arranged into five topics: Urgency, Leadership, Transformation, Breakthroughs, and Action. Join us in discussing the last and most important topic: Actions.

For this fourth of our virtual meeting series, on Sunday, January 17, we are asking participants to try and watch the full Action session in advance of the meeting:
https://www.ted.com/talks/hosted_by_chris_hemsworth_and_priyanka_chopra_jonas_countdown_session_5_action_full_session?language=en&referrer=playlist-countdown_session_5_action
This full session includes all of the individual Action talks.

During the meetup, we will watch a subset of the individual talks to inspire discussion and include plenty of time for discussion.

This meeting is also registered on TED Circles at https://events.tedcircles.com/invitation.html?id=recXj8ryfgn9woUWD

Once you RSVP, we will provide the zoom link.

The transcripts and key quotes from some of the talks are aggregated in a Basecamp project "TED Countdown". Also, some added content and discussion of these talks is available. Here's a link to join the TED Countdown Basecamp Project:
