🗣Subtitle: Farsi | English | Turkish

👁The most colorful gemstones on Earth
🧠Jeff Dekofsky
🗣Subtitle: 🇹🇷Turkish | 🇬🇧English

👣In November 1986, Australian miners climbed Lunatic Hill and bored 20 meters into the Earth. They were rewarded with a fist-sized, record breaking gemstone, which they named the Hailey's Comet opal. Thanks to a characteristic called "play of color," no two opals look the same. So what causes these vibrant displays? Jeff Dekofsky digs into the rock's shimmering, dancing displays of light. [Directed by Ivana Bošnjak and Thomas Johnson, narrated by Jack Cutmore-Scott, music by Salil Bhayani].

👁How do we create a better economy?
🧠 TED-Ed
🗣Subtitle: 🇬🇧English | 🇹🇷Turkish

👣Can we call any economy "healthy" in the face of dwindling resources and growing inequality? What if we cut off our addiction to endless growth, and used a new compass for modern prosperity? One such compass is known as "doughnut economics," which aims to meet the needs of people without overshooting Earth's ecological limits. Explore how this model reframes our economic systems. [Directed by Vicente Nirō, AIM Creative Studios, narrated by Kate Raworth and George Zaidan, music by André Aires].

👁The climate crisis is expensive -- here's who should pay for it
🧠Avinash Persaud
🗣Subtitle: 🇬🇧English | 🇹🇷Turkish

👣The developing world is most affected by climate change but has contributed the least to the problem. Meanwhile, rich countries historically exacerbated the environmental crisis and grew wealthy as a result -- but aren't helping developing countries build climate resilience, which is now more crucial than ever to slowing climate change everywhere. Economist Avinash Persaud has an ambitious proposal to reimagine that dynamic: the Bridgetown Initiative, a groundbreaking vision of how rich countries can catalyze climate mitigation, contribute to loss and damages and help build a sustainable future for all.
