After waking up to the ecological crisis facing the planet during a deep period of self-reflection, Bhavani Prakash left her career in finance and set up the advocacy website EcoWalkTheTalk.com. She writes and speaks about climate change, organic farming, non-toxic product alternatives, and green action by individuals and communities, and is author of "50 ways to make your home eco-friendly" and runs the facebook page called "Grow Your Own Food in Singapore". About TEDxSingapore TEDxSingapore celebrated its 4rd anniversary by curating our 21st TEDx event since our launch on 15 April 2009. "Our Future, We Will Make" asked What shall we strive for? What makes us successful? ...as a country, as a community, as a family, as individuals. What does success mean? What Singapore would we be proud to build for Singaporeans who will come after us? What deeply matters to you? What are our possibilities?

Founded in April 2009, we are 100% Community-Created. Express your passion and inspiration with us, visit us at www.TEDxSingapore.sg In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
