[font size=3]The first solar powered TED event from Antarctica will be broadcast live from Neko harbor on March 6. It's message: if alternative energy can work in the coldest, harshest, most unforgiving place on earth, it can be used anywhere.
...
So, returning back now to the solar powered TEDx event in Antarctica, let's hope that this broadcast from the most inhospitable place on earth will help move the issue of renewable energy forward. In Swan's own words: "I try to inspire young people on the issue by doing stuff .. not by talking, sending an email or passing along a YouTube clip... but by action."
Some say that the "future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams." May all the team at the TEDx event in Antarctica believe in the beauty of their dreams. And may our world believe in the future of renewable energy, and in the beauty of our planet that gives us home.
