2023-04-23 17:17:14 A faster way to get to a clean energy future
Ramez Naam
Subtitle: English | Turkish

When it comes to cost, clean energy is bound to beat out fossil fuels, says technologist Ramez Naam. But the hesitancy to build amid the prevalence of "not in my backyard" campaigns is preventing the creation of our sustainable future. Naam outlines the changes we need to make to get out of our own way and create a stronger, more reliable renewable energy grid. "It is time for us to build," he says.

2023-04-22 17:14:18 How do airplanes actually fly?
Raymond Adkins
Subtitle: English | Turkish

By 1917, Albert Einstein had explained the relationship between space and time. But, that year, he designed a flawed airplane wing. His attempt was based on an incomplete theory of how flight works. Indeed, insufficient and inaccurate explanations still circulate today. So, where did Einstein go wrong? And how exactly do planes fly? Raymond Adkins explains the concept of aerodynamic lift. [Directed by Michael Kalopaidis, Zedem Media, narrated by Addison Anderson].

2023-04-21 17:14:08 The bizarre world of parasitic wasps
Miles Zhang
Subtitle: English | Turkish

A cockroach and jewel wasp are locked in battle. The wasp latches onto the cockroach and inserts her stinger into the cockroach's brain, where her venom blocks its fight-or-flight response. Now, the cockroach is essentially a zombie, and its carcass will be used to grow the wasp's offspring. Miles Zhang explores the gruesome evolutionary strategy known as parasitoidism. [Directed by Denys Spolitak, narrated by Jack Cutmore-Scott, music by Salil Bhayani, cAMP Studio].

2023-04-20 17:14:43 The continents are moving. When will they collide?
Jean-Baptiste P. Koehl
Subtitle: English | Turkish

In the early 20th century, Alfred Wegener's theory of Continental Drift laid the foundation for our modern theory of plate tectonics. And today we know something even more exciting: Pangea was only the latest in a long lineage of supercontinents, and it won't be the last. Jean-Baptiste P. Koehl explores when the next supercontinent will emerge — and what it might mean for Earth's environment. [Directed by Iuri Araujo, Província Studio, narrated by Addison Anderson, music by Salil Bhayani, cAMP Studio].

2023-04-19 17:15:31 How bad data traps people in the US justice system
Clementine Jacoby
Subtitle: English | Turkish

Right now, hundreds of thousands of people are "stuck" in the US criminal justice system. They've completed all of their requirements for release, but nobody knows it because the system is run on old databases that don't talk to each other. TED Fellow Clementine Jacoby describes how we can fix it -- bringing thousands of people home, reducing costs and improving public safety along the way.

2023-04-17 17:18:10 Where does your sense of self come from? A scientific look
Anil Ananthaswamy
Subtitle: English | Turkish

Our memories and bodies give us clues about who we are, but what happens when this guidance shifts? In this mind-bending talk, science writer Anil Ananthaswamy shares how the experiences of "altered selves" -- resulting from schizophrenia, Alzheimer's, foreign limb syndrome or other conditions -- shed light on the constructed nature of identity. He breaks down where our sense of self comes from and invites us to challenge our assumptions about who we are, with the aim of building a better you and a better world.

2023-04-16 17:15:04 When are you actually an adult?
Shannon Odell
Subtitle: English | Turkish

Most countries recognize 18 as the start of adulthood by granting various freedoms and privileges. Yet there's no exact age or moment in development that we can point to as having reached full maturity. If there's no consensus on exactly when we reach maturity, when do we actually become adults? Shannon Odell shares how scientists define adulthood using stages of brain development. [Directed by Biljana Labović, narrated by Alexandra Panzer, Gen Parton-Shin, May Yoshioka, music by Weston Fonger, Samuel Bellingham].

TED-Ed
Subtitle: English | Turkish

Rejection hurts. It's incredibly painful to feel like you're not wanted — and we do mean painful. Researchers found that we relate rejection to being "hurt," using terms like "crushed" or "broken-hearted." So, why does rejection trigger such a strong response, and is there any way to cope with this unique kind of pain? Explore common strategies to help you process this emotional experience. [Directed Caitlin McCarthy, narrated Jack Cutmore-Scott, music by Salil Bhayani, cAMP Studio].

2023-04-14 17:14:02 Ethical dilemma: Should we get rid of mosquitoes?
Talya Hackett
Subtitle: English | Turkish

Mosquitoes are responsible for more human deaths every year than any other animal, but very few of the 3,500 mosquito species actually transmit deadly diseases to humans. Scientists have been conducting experiments using engineered technologies called gene drives that could theoretically get rid of the most lethal mosquitoes. So, should we eradicate these pesky insects? Talya Hackett investigates. [Directed by Luísa M H Copetti, Hype CG, narrated by Bethany Cutmore-Scott, music by Gabriel Maia].
