TEDxOilSpill, Taking On The Oil Spill Catastrophe

TEDxOilSpill

TED is organizing a special TEDxOilSpill on June 28th at the International Trade Center in Washington DC to address issues associated with BP’s Deepwater Horizon oil spill.

TED conferences bring together the world’s leading thinkers and doers for a series of talks, presentations and performances. TEDxOilSpill will tackle the tough questions raised by the recent and ongoing environmental catastrophe in the Gulf of Mexico. Topics will include mitigation of the spill and the impending cleanup efforts; energy alternatives; policy and economics; as well as new technology that can help us build a self-reliant culture.
