HUN: Nem az a kérdés, hogy lesz-e összeomlás. Hanem az, hogy te készen állsz-e rá? A világ, ahogy ismered, véget érhet – és sokkal hamarabb, mint gondolnád.Stumpf-Biró Balázs. Az összeomlás-kutató szerint a jelenlegi életformánk fenntarthatatlan, és az éghajlati katasztrófa nem egy távoli rémálom – már benne élünk. A globális polikrízis jelei egyértelműek, de a legfontosabb kérdés: mit tehetünk most?A TEDxGyőr színpadán Stumpf-Biró Balázs nemcsak a krízisek valódi természetéről beszél, hanem arról is, hogyan készülhetünk fel mentálisan és fizikailag a változásokra. Vajon túl lehet élni az elkerülhetetlent?ENG: The question isn’t whether collapse will happen. It’s whether you are ready for it. The world as you know it could end—and much sooner than you might think.Balázs Stumpf-Biró. According to this collapse researcher, our current way of life is unsustainable, and climate catastrophe isn’t a distant nightmare—we’re already living in it. The signs of a global polycrisis are clear, but the most important question is: what can we do now?On the TEDxGyőr stage, Balázs Stumpf-Biró will talk not only about the true nature of these crises but also about how we can prepare—mentally and physically—for the changes to come. Is it possible to survive the inevitable? Balázs Stumpf-Biró is the co-founder of the Cassandra Program, which identifies the impacts of climate change and supports the process of adaptation. He is the Hungarian representative of the Deep Adaptation movement, which emphasizes the importance of mental preparedness, and the creator of the Betyáros Világ podcast, which aims to raise awareness and shape perspectives. He also researches the unfolding of the global polycrisis phenomenon at the Doctoral School of Environmental Sciences at the University of Pannonia.

HUN:Nincs olyan dolog, tudás, tudomány a földön, ami nem függ össze minden más dologgal, tudással, tudománnyal.A világunk mindig egyetlen összefüggő dinamikus rendszer volt, csak igyekeztünk részeire szabdalni. Jól definiálható részekre, melyek határai biztonságot adtak az egyén és a közösség számára egyaránt. Azonban a részek közötti összefüggések lassan feledésbe merültek. Pedig ott, a tudáshalmazok találkozásánál lehetnek a válaszaink az emberiség feszítő problémáira.El kell kezdenünk ezeket a néha idegennek tűnő területeket feltérképezni, az emlékeinket az összefüggésekről előhozni, megnézni végre nincs-e a megoldás arra valahol. Ehhez viszont kapcsolódnunk kell egymással, megérteni egymás nézőpontjait sokkal jobban és nyitottabban, mint azt valaha tettük.Nekünk, egyéneknek hatalmas hatásunk van a rendszerre, de függünk épségétől. Képzeljük el, ha mindenki csupán egy lépést tesz naponta magáér! Az 7 milliárd lépés naponta mindannyiunkért.Hozzuk elő az emlékeink, kapcsoljuk össze az egyetemes tudást, mert kezünkben a megoldás.ENG: There is nothing—no knowledge or science on Earth—that isn’t connected to everything else. Our world has always been a single, interconnected, dynamic system. We simply tried to carve it up into parts. Clearly defined parts whose boundaries offered a sense of safety to both individuals and communities. But over time, the connections between these parts have been forgotten. Yet it is precisely at the intersections of these bodies of knowledge that we may find answers to humanity’s most pressing problems.We need to begin exploring these sometimes unfamiliar territories, to revive our memory of the connections, to look carefully and see whether the solution might already be there somewhere. But for this, we must connect with one another and understand each other’s perspectives far more deeply and openly than we ever have before.We, as individuals, have an enormous impact on the system—but we also depend on its integrity. Just imagine if everyone took a single step each day for our shared future! That would be 7 billion steps every day for all of us.Let’s reclaim those connections in our memory, let’s weave together our universal knowledge—because the solution is in our hands. Erzsébet’s career began when she was just a young child, taken for the first time by her father into a confectionery factory. She was enchanted by the clatter of the machines, the heat of the ovens, and the sweet, aromatic scents of the products. At the same time, she also saw that producing safe, consistent products required many additives, generated unnecessary waste in the system, and that human health was hardly a consideration in the industry back then.When she earned her degrees in food engineering and biotechnology, she still didn’t feel prepared enough for the kind of paradigm shift she believed was needed. She focused on accumulating experience, gathering diverse perspectives, and never followed the mainstream—whether as a researcher, a manager at a multinational company, or when she founded Hungary’s first multidisciplinary agency for food science and nutrition research and development.They began introducing a new way of thinking into manufacturing facilities, working with experts who proposed complex solutions to complex problems. They transferred best practices across industries and developed high-quality, premium, and delicious products that few dared to undertake. They investigated hard-to-detect spoilage processes and resolved complicated food law issues. Her recommendations carried weight, and clients turned to them when they needed contract manufacturers, ingredient suppliers, or new company strategies.She became the kind of problem-solver for this beautiful industry that she had always wanted to be—backed by a doctoral dissertation, an international career, and countless trainings, lectures, articles, and case studies.She believes that deep knowledge, continuous renewal, the integration of sciences and experience, and innovations that truly serve our world can help bring about a time when we can produce nourishing food from far more diverse ingredients, with great flavors and without waste. Whether we will be motivated enough to achieve this—and to create a fairer distribution of resources before critical global tipping points—is a much harder question.

HUN: Balázs különleges zenés előadásában azt mutatja meg, milyen mély hatással van a zene az emberre – nemcsak a múltban, hanem a jelenben is, és hogyan lehet a jövőben is a segítségünkre. Bemutatja, miként formál bennünket a zene, és hogyan maradhat a kapcsolódás, az önkifejezés és a támogatás eszköze.ENG: Balázs offers a unique musical performance that explores the profound impact of music on people—not just in the past, but in the present, and looking ahead to the future. He demonstrates how music continues to shape us and how it can remain a vital tool for connection, expression, and support.

HUN: Érezted már, hogy a telefonod nélkül elveszett vagy?Volt már, hogy nem emlékeztél egy fontos dologra, mert „úgyis meg tudod nézni”? Tudod, milyen hatással vannak a képernyőid az érzelmeidre – és arra, hogyan érzed magad a világban?A technológia kényelmesebbé teszi az életünket, de közben észrevétlenül formálja az elménket, az érzelmeinket, a kapcsolatainkat. Vajon ki irányít kit?Erre kapunk választ a TEDxGyőr 2025 egyik előadójától, Sipka Bencétől, aki elvezet minket ahhoz, hogyan építhetünk tudatos kapcsolatot digitális eszközeinkkel, hogy ne azok alakítsanak minket, hanem mi alakítsuk őket.ENG: Have you ever felt lost without your phone? Have you ever forgotten something important because you thought “I can always look it up”? Do you know how your screens affect your emotions—and how you feel about the world?Technology makes our lives more convenient, but at the same time it subtly shapes our minds, our emotions, and our relationships. Who is really in control?We’ll hear answers to this question from one of TEDxGyőr 2025’s speakers, Bence Sipka, who will guide us toward building a conscious relationship with our digital devices—so that they don’t shape us, but we shape them. As a child, Bence was always enchanted by the world of science fiction novels. He never imagined that elements from those reading experiences would come to life within his own lifetime. He was fascinated by the possibilities of holograms, robots, and space travel. But he was even more intrigued by how people would behave in such a transformed technological environment—what dilemmas they would face and what decisions they would make.This led him to found the LifeTech Balance Center, to support anyone seeking to build a healthy relationship with technology in their lives. As a psychologist, his goal is to ensure that technology truly serves human growth and fulfillment.

HUN: „Úgysem fog sikerülni.” „Lehetetlen.” „Nincs értelme próbálkozni.” Sokan így gondolkodnak – de szerencsére nem mindenki.Ha a Futni mentem című film alkotói is teret adtak volna ezeknek a gondolatoknak, akkor ma nem beszélhetnénk Magyarország egyik legsikeresebb filmjéről.A film hatalmas sikert aratott: rekord nézőszámot hozott a mozikban – egy olyan korszakban, amikor a streaming uralja a piacot. De még ennél is izgalmasabbak a film mögött meghúzódó dimenziók: a szemléletváltás, a rengeteg befektetett munkaóra és az emberi kapcsolatok összetett hálózata.Mi kellett ehhez a sikerhez? Új gondolkodásmód, reziliencia és tudatos építkezés. Alkalmazkodás a filmes kihívásokhoz és a nézői elvárásokhoz – és annak felismerése, hogy a filmkészítés módszertana más területeken is inspiráló lehet.Erről mesél Dr. Kárpáti György, a Futni mentem című film producere.ENG: “It will never work.” “Impossible.” “There’s no point in trying.” Many people think this way – but fortunately, not everyone does.If the creators of the Hungarian film 'Gone Running' had given space to these thoughts, today we wouldn’t be talking about one of Hungary’s most successful films.The film achieved tremendous success, drawing record audiences to cinemas – at a time when streaming dominates the market. But even more fascinating are the dimensions behind its success: the shift in mindset, the countless hours of dedicated work, and the complex network of human relationships.What did it take to achieve this success? A new way of thinking, resilience, and deliberate, strategic building.Adaptation to the challenges of filmmaking and audience expectations – and the recognition that the methodology of filmmaking can inspire other fields as well.This is what Dr. György Kárpáti, producer of 'Gone Running', shares in his TEDx Talk. György is a habilitated university lecturer with lifelong and deeply rooted ties to film, dating back to his childhood. Over the decades, he progressed from watching films to teaching and making them, while also running a cinema, writing film reviews, and distributing films.As the producer of 'Gone Running', he and his team aimed to prove several things – and judging by the 720,000 viewers and the awards the film received, they largely succeeded.Gone Running became the second most-watched Hungarian film produced after 1990.
