TARYN SIMON: Things don't exist in isolated envelopes any more. It's all
interdisciplinary and… This is kind of an exaggerated version of that.
CAMERON DIAZ: It's goes across the board. It's not
just one specific thing. It's just everything.
It's really, to me, it shows how human we are.

These elders, that have been here far, far longer than we have.
MICHAEL PRITCHARD: And the two million kids will die every year.
will live!

allied to the power of modern communications.
That gives us the first opportunity
to fundamentally change the world.

to do something that's both long term, sustainable, and positive.
We have now about
four hundred and twenty five thousand samples of unique crop varieties.

You are looking at a cell phone powered completely wirelessly.
REUBEN ABRAHAM: I think people coming together,
especially people coming from all of the world coming together is a good idea period!
JUAN ENRIQUEZ: This is more intimate than California.
It's easier to see the people, the venue’s smaller and you’re all in one small space
it’s got a more international feel.
CHIMAMANDA ADICHIE: When we realize that there's never a single story about any place
we will regain a kind of paradise.
GEOFF MULGAN: and we have to choose,
whether we are just peddling furiously just to get back to where we were
or whether this is a moment to jump ahead,
to reboot,and to do some of the things we probably
should've been doing anyway.
FREDERICK BALAGADDE So many people have ideas,
but they don't know exactly how to bring them to life.
TED provides the network of ideas
a network of strategies, a network of people
that have actually done great things in the past.

so just one of them happened to be me.

That's what TED always does. It expands your mind.

make sure that we own them and that we truly the authors of our own ambition.
PAUL ROMER: It's not like scarce objects.
We're sharing means we each gets less.
When we share ideas, we all get more.

I’ve gone on too long. Thank you very much.
