Re-Envisioning Climate Change Through Art | Marcus Moench | TEDxMileHigh

How does art strengthen global conversations on climate change? In this inspiring talk, scientist Marcus Moench explains how he uses ceramics as a fundamental tool for catalyzing local, solution-oriented conversations in the difficult topic of climate change. In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations) Marcus Moench is the founder of ISET-International where he works with communities around the world on adaptation and resilience to climate change. He combines scientific training in environmental science, water, and energy with experience supporting the development of effective responses to climate, water and disaster risk arising from a complex web of emergent social, economic and environmental changes. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at http://ted.com/tedx
