Elise Hu

So a detail, something really specific that you're like, oh, I'm so glad that exists or I'm so glad for that particular moment or product.

That was Deja Fox in conversation with me, Elise Hu at TED 2025 in April 2025.

You can check out Deja's talk on the TED Talks daily feed and at TED.com.

And that's it for today.

Happy Sunday, TED Talks Daily listeners.

Elise Hu here.

Today, we're excited to share with you the first episode of a new podcast from TED called Speed and Scale.

Here's a new climate story.

The biggest solutions to our climate crisis exist all around us, but they're hiding in plain sight.

Join hosts Ryan Panchatsaram and Anjali Grover as they identify the greatest climate winds unfolding across the world.

They'll chat with the people tackling the issues quickly, efficiently, and at scale that actually make a difference.

In this first episode of the series, we head to Texas, my home state in the US, where they share the surprising story of how Texas, which is rich in oil and gas, became America's biggest wind energy producer and a model for supercharging the clean energy transition.
