We should never consider ourselves separate from the world. Through his own acclaimed art and exploration of the outdoors, world renowned artist Robert Bateman compares all the benefits of connecting with the environment versus segregating yourself from it.

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)
