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)UOW Human Geographer, Professor Gordon Waitt, explores the intimate and essential role that cars play in peoples' lives -- not only as an extension of us, but as spaces for us to escape, connect with others and be restored. Because being in vehicles helps people juggle and deal with the stresses of everyday life, he said, it is one of the few changes that citizens are prepared to make, even among those most environmentally conscientious among us.
