👁We can reprogram life. How to do it wisely
🗣Subtitle: Farsi | English | Turkish
👣For four billion years, what lived and died on Earth depended on two principles: natural selection and random mutation. Then humans came along and changed everything — hybridizing plants, breeding animals, altering the environment and even purposefully evolving ourselves. Juan Enriquez provides five guidelines for a future where this ability to program life rapidly accelerates. \"This is the single most exciting adventure human beings have been on,\" Enriquez says. \"This is the single greatest superpower humans have ever had.\"

👁An economic case for protecting the planet
🗣Subtitle: Farsi | English | Turkish

👁An urgent call to protect the world's \"Third Pole\"
🗣Subtitle: Farsi | English
👣The Hindu Kush Himalaya region is the world's third-largest repository of ice, after the North and South Poles -- and if current melting rates continue, two-thirds of its glaciers could be gone by the end of this century. What will happen if we let them melt away? Environmentalist and former Prime Minister of Bhutan Tshering Tobgay shares the latest from the \"water towers of Asia,\" making an urgent call to create an intergovernmental agency to protect the glaciers -- and save the nearly two billion people downstream from catastrophic flooding that would destroy land and livelihoods.

👁Hunting for Peru's lost civilizations -- with satellites
🗣Subtitle: Farsi | English | Turkish
👣Around the world, hundreds of thousands of lost ancient sites lie buried and hidden from view. Satellite archaeologist Sarah Parcak is determined to find them before looters do. With the 2016 TED Prize, Parcak is building an online citizen-science tool called GlobalXplorer that will train an army of volunteer explorers to find and protect the world's hidden heritage.

👁Ecology from the air
🗣Subtitle: Farsi | English | Turkish
👣What are our forests really made of? From the air, ecologist Greg Asner uses a spectrometer and high-powered lasers to map nature in meticulous kaleidoscopic 3D detail -- what he calls \"a very high-tech accounting system\" of carbon. In this fascinating talk, Asner gives a clear message: To save our ecosystems, we need more data, gathered in new ways.

👁What are animals thinking and feeling?
🗣Subtitle: Farsi | English | Turkish
👣What's going on inside the brains of animals? Can we know what, or if, they're thinking and feeling? Carl Safina thinks we can. Using discoveries and anecdotes that span ecology, biology and behavioral science, he weaves together stories of whales, wolves, elephants and albatrosses to argue that just as we think, feel, use tools and express emotions, so too do the other creatures – and minds – that share the Earth with us.

👁Leather and meat without killing animals
🗣Subtitle: Farsi | English | Turkish
👣By 2050, it will take 100 billion land animals to provide the world's population with meat, dairy, eggs and leather goods. Maintaining this herd will take a huge, potentially unsustainable toll on the planet. What if there were a different way? In this eye-opening talk, tissue engineering advocate Andras Forgacs argues that biofabricating meat and leather is a civilized way to move past killing animals for hamburgers and handbags.
