Judgement Call | Aadil Jaleel Choudhry | TEDxInstituteOfSpaceTechnology
Sometimes, a single decision can change the course of your life — not because it was right or wrong, but because you had to make it.In this deeply personal TEDx talk, Aadil Jaleel Choudhry opens up about a pivotal moment where everything came down to a single judgement call. With vulnerability and honesty, they reflect on the weight of personal choice, the complexity of doing what feels right versus what seems safe, and the ripple effects that follow.This is a story about owning your decisions — even the painful ones — and learning to live with what you chose when no one else could choose for you. It’s a powerful reminder that courage doesn't always look like action — sometimes, it's just standing by the truth of who you are.Aadil Jaleel Choudhry is a Pakistani entrepreneur and technologist, recognized for his contributions to artificial intelligence and embedded systems.

- 11:32O nível do mar sobe há décadas. Como minimizar suas consequências? | Valdenira Santos | TEDxAmazôniaQuando pensamos em mudanças climáticas, nos vem à mente altas temperaturas, secas e enchentes extremas, aumento de furacões e incêndios. Poucos se dão conta de um movimento quase imperceptível que gera consequências drásticas: o aumento do nível do mar, que atinge mais de 2 bilhões de pessoas que vivem em zonas costeiras. A geóloga Valdenira Santos nos traz encaminhamentos urgentes para evitar catástrofes iminentes. Valdenira é uma geóloga apaixonada pela Amazônia Costeira que dedica sua vida a desvendar os mistérios das transformações dos ambientes costeiros no encontro da vasta foz do rio Amazonas com o mar. Com um doutorado em Geologia e Geofísica Marinha e uma carreira dedicada à pesquisa, ela tem contribuído largamente para a compreensão da dinâmica e dos desafios da região. Seus estudos pioneiros sobre a pororoca na foz do Amazonas são um marco na pesquisa científica brasileira. Valdenira é uma voz ativa na defesa do uso racional e sustentável dos ecossistemas costeiros e marinhos da Amazônia e, através do Observatório Popular do Mar-OMARA, ela mobiliza a sociedade civil para a conservação dos oceanos.
