Imagining Communities Powered by Nature Through Speculative Design | Cesar Jung-Harada | TEDxJakarta

In the fight to reverse climate change, have we included everyone, especially those who are most affected by it? This is the question Cesar attempts to answer in his talk, where the impact of climate change emphasizes the disproportionate impact of pollution on the youth, such as children with asthma and highlights how climate change, especially sea level rise, severely affects coastal and indigenous communities, often leading to climate refugees. Proposing a solution, Cesar explores the concept of working collaboratively with young and indigenous people to develop climate solutions here in Indonesia, specifically through the innovative ‘Balon Balon Ijo’ system. Through this system, Cesar sees hydrogen as a viable energy alternative, addressing the challenge of solar energy storage, where it can be produced locally and stored locally within each community. Cesar Jung-Harada is a French-Japanese innovator, environmentalist, entrepreneur and is a trailblazer in the field of ocean exploration and conservation technology. Cesar is currently an Associate Professor at the Singapore Institute of Technology. Cesar's expertise extends to his role as the Founder and Director of MakerBay, a pioneering Hong Kong Makerspace dedicated to impactful environmental solutions. Through MakerBay, he has developed groundbreaking technologies like Protei, an open-source shape shifting sailing robot capable of efficient ocean cleanup, addressing critical issues such as oil spills and plastic pollution. Cesar is a TED Senior Fellow and a Figure of Progress, recognized for his innovative contributions to the environmental sector. Passionate about inclusive education and STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Mathematics), he mentors the next generation of leaders, fostering proactive and sustainable solutions to complex global challenges. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
