It might not be an official day, but Earth Day is a celebration of all things wonderful in our world. Millions around the world will demonstrate their support for environmental protection on 22 April. Here in Singapore, companies like Apple are hosting weekend sessions with environmentalists who will share tips on leading a more sustainable life. There will be talks focusing on nature, technology, and design too.
Also happening on 22 April is a series of screenings of this year’s TED talks at the National Library. This year’s conference is titled ‘The Age of Amazement‘, and includes speakers like Gwynne Shotwell (President of SpaceX) and Tracee Ellis Ross (actor and activist).
