TEDxUtrecht is joining TED’s and Future Stewards’ Countdown, a global initiative to champion and accelerate solutions to the climate crisis, turning our former focus from ideas worth spreading to blossoming ideas into action. In other words, TED and TEDxUtrecht just became more than just a podium for Ideas Worth Spreading.

The goal: To build  a better future by cutting greenhouse gas emissions in half by 2030  in the race to a zero-carbon world – a world that is safer, cleaner and fairer for everyone.

And for that, a more active approach is necessary.

Green roofs on bus stops, local crafted beers from bread normally gone to waste, new parts of the city build with zero emission in mind, the WeDriveSolar-initiative … . Utrecht is stepping up its efforts to make a sustainable city reality in many different ways and means. But the challenge we face is big.

So as the early adopters of the sustainable movement, how are we going to seduce/invite the rest of the city to embrace our learnings? How can businesses cooperate more, neighbours increasingly meet and inspire each other and schools and universities share their knowledge amongst each other and throughout 030. And how can the city, the media and we, the people make even more possible?

That’s where TEDxUtrecht is going to contribute.
Turning effective ideas and local good practices into even more action throughout our town – and share with the world where Utrecht is leading in innovation, ideas AND the impact we’re creating together.

With events, with increasing support for new ideas and initiatives and a global podium for innovations that have already proven their value. And with a local campaign to make known that we as Utrecht already ARE increasingly championing sustainable solutions.
