Jill Bolte Taylor: My Stroke of Insight
Neuroanatomist Jill Bolte Taylor had an opportunity few brain
scientists would wish for: One morning, she realized she was
having a massive stroke. As it happened — as she felt her
brain functions slip away one by one, speech, movement,
understanding — she studied and remembered every
moment. This is a powerful story about how our brains define us
and connect us to the world and to one another.

350: Global Warming. Global Action. Global Future.
350 is the red line for human beings, the most important number
on the planet. The most recent science tells us that unless we
can reduce the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere to 350
parts per million, we will cause huge and irreversible damage to
the earth.
What's the best way to introduce the world to 350? With over
4000 languages spoken around the world, it's probably not with a
bunch of words. 350.org boils down the science of global warming
and vision of the 350 Campaign in this 90-second animation.
