Step forward - I want to be a firefighter | Yuzhu CHEN | TEDxPennon Qingdao Youth
A third-grader whose biggest dream is to become a firefighter gives a speech. She's training herself to be “bear-strong” enough to save people and bring smiles when they’re scared. My name is Chen Yuzhu. I'm a lovely girl. I'm going to be in Grade 2 this new term. I have many hobbies. I like drawing pictures. It's fun to use colors to show the world in my mind. I also love English. Learning English words and singing English songs make me happy. And roller - skating is really cool. I feel like I'm flying when I skate. Besides, I enjoy making friends. Friends can play together and share happy things. That's me, a girl full of energy and love for life. Thank you!

- 10:14Urbanization's Impact on Agriculture | Aryan Sharma | TEDxBrushy Creek YouthThis talk by Aryan Sharma explores how rapid urban growth is paving over farmland, displacing farmers, and threatening the very food systems we depend on. Through personal stories and eye-opening data, Aryan Sharma reveals what’s at stake—and highlights innovative solutions like agrihoods and AI-powered farming that prove cities and farms can grow together. It’s a call to rethink development, protect our farmers, and safeguard the soil that sustains us all. Aryan Sharma is a 14-year-old 9th grader at Round Rock High School. For years, he visited a local farm stand with his grandpa, until it was suddenly removed due to urban development. That moment sparked his passion to speak up about the struggles farmers face as cities expand. His message resonated, earning him 1st place in major public speaking contests across Texas, including the Houston Rodeo Fair for Public Speaking, one of the biggest public speaking competitions in the nation. Aryan uses his voice to defend rural communities and honor agricultural heritage. In his free time, he enjoys building engineering project and coding.
