This year, EEB3's annual TEDx event will host fifteen inspiring speakers. These will include members of the school community and experts in various fields. They will discuss the theme: "And Against All Odds..." and, through their talks, shed light on some of the most pressing issues of our time. Through the diversity represented by the speakers, everyone will find something that interests them in the TEDxYouth@EEB3 programme. For better or for worse, humans have the potential to beat the odds. The main message of the event is that we should, therefore, seek out the unknown and defeat the odds to construct a better future. The world population is growing and, along with it, our appetite for energy. Over the last few decades, society has slowly understood that fossil fuels will not be able to fuel human progress forever and that their utilization has become a severe threat to nature and human life. Therefore, alternative energy sources, like renewable solar, wind or water power, have been explored and developed. However, their technical implementation remains complicated. The output of such sources won't be enough to provide for our ever-increasing energy needs. Since the 1950s, the concept of gaining energy from the fusion of light atoms has been explored and ever since developed to nowadays highly complex experimental machines to build commercial nuclear fusion power plants. The output of such power sources could fuel a substantial part of our future. In this talk, I like to guide you through recent developments and the latest research results in this fast-growing field. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
