👁Why every world map is wrong
🧠Kayla Wolf
🗣Subtitle: 🇹🇷Turkish | 🇬🇧English

👣Fourteen Greenlands could fit in Africa— but you wouldn't guess it from most maps of the world. The fact is, every world map humans have ever made is wrong. Actually, it's impossible to make a flat map of the whole spherical world 100% right. So why do we bother with these inaccurate maps at all? Kayla Wolf explores how even the simplest changes in map design can shift our point of view. [Directed by Globizco Studios, narrated by Alexandra Panzer, music by Manuel Borda].

🧠TED-Ed
🗣Subtitle: 🇹🇷Turkish | 🇬🇧English

👣Historically, most cars have run on gasoline, but that doesn't have to be the case in the future: other liquid fuels and electricity can also power cars. So what are the differences between these options? And which one's best? Dig into which fuel— gasoline, electric, biofuels, or electrofuels— is both affordable for consumers and sustainable for the planet. [Written by Elizabeth Cox and George Zaidan, directed by Lisa LaBracio, narrated by Jack Cutmore-Scott, music by André Aires].

👁What if every satellite suddenly disappeared?
🧠Moriba Jah
🗣Subtitle: 🇹🇷Turkish | 🇬🇧English

👣What would happen if one day all of humanity's artificial satellites suddenly disappeared? Within hours, most of the planet's traffic would grind to a halt, the world economy would shut down, and most countries would declare a state of emergency. Even in the best-case scenario, our civilization would be set back by decades. So, what are the odds of this actually happening? Moriba Jah investigates.

🗣Subtitle: 🇹🇷Turkish | 🇬🇧English

👣You've filled up your cart and made it to the front of the grocery line when you're confronted with yet another choice: what kind of bag should you use?

👁Can we create the "perfect" farm?
🧠Brent Loken
🗣Subtitle: 🇹🇷Turkish | 🇬🇧English

Spread all over the world, these lands are the pieces to a global puzzle we're all facing: in the future, how can we feed every member of a growing population a healthy diet? Brent Loken investigates. [Directed by Hype CG, narrated by Jack Cutmore-Scott, music by Gabriel Maia].

👁Blood, concrete, and dynamite: Building the Hoover Dam
🧠Alex Gendler
🗣Subtitle: 🇬🇧English

👣In the early 20th century, the US had expanded from coast to coast, but many cities in the southwest still lacked reliable water sources. The Colorado River's erratic flow and frequent floods made it unreliable for agriculture, and the region's growing cities needed more energy. So the government decided to build a massive hydroelectric dam. Alex Gendler details the creation of the Hoover Dam. [Directed Jovan Rakic, Artrake Studio, narrated by Addison Anderson, music by Nikola Radivojevic].

👁Building the impossible: Golden Gate Bridge
🧠Alex Gendler
🗣Subtitle: 🇹🇷Turkish | 🇬🇧English

👣Stretching 227 meters tall, two towers were assembled to support California's Golden Gate Bridge. They were just one of the challenges facing engineers Charles Ellis and Joseph Strauss.

Alex Gendler details the feat. [Directed by Anton Bogaty, narrated by Addison Anderson, music by Salil Bhayani, cAMP Studio].

👁A new way to "grow" islands and coastlines
🧠Skylar Tibbits
🗣Subtitle: 🇹🇷Turkish | 🇬🇧English

👣What if we could harness the ocean's movement to protect coastal communities from rising sea levels? Designer and TED Fellow Skylar Tibbits shows how his lab is creating a dynamic, adaptable system of underwater structures that uses energy from ocean waves to accumulate sand and restore eroding shorelines -- working with the forces of nature to build rather than destroy.
