Global Issues

Starting next week the main topic in International English will be Global issues. Browse through the headlines of the TED talks you find here: http://www.ted.com/talks?topics%5B%5D=global+issues&sort=newest Watch one of the talks and write a blog post about it. Who is the speaker? What is the talk about (give a brief summary)? Why did you choose to write about this particular talk? What are your thoughts about this issue? Why is this important or at least interesting? Were you suprised by anything the speaker said or was there something you found particularly interesting? You might want to watch a couple of talks before you decide, but make sure to choose a talk that you feel you are able to comment on. Also, embed the video in your post.
