Crafting Ecological Eternity | Kayi Huang | TEDxGCGS Youth

This speech centers on the long-standing issue of Fukushima nuclear wastewater, triggered by the 2011 earthquake and tsunami that released radioactive waste, harming marine life and residents. It concludes that solving the wastewater problem depends not just on time, but on collective participation, calling on everyone to drive ecological cognitive evolution. Jasmine Huang is a high school student with a keen focus on environmental issues. By delving into the long-term impacts of the 2011 Fukushima nuclear accident—particularly the challenges posed by nuclear wastewater to marine ecosystems and human cognition—she breaks down key concepts like "cognitive half-life" from a youth perspective. In her talk, she shares insights on the barriers to understanding environmental risks and potential solutions, offering a fresh lens to grasp this complex topic. 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
