A Creative Approach To Climate Change | Finnegan Harries | TEDxTeen
Вставка
- Опубліковано 17 чер 2024
- Climate change is a fact. Calling all creatives. Finnegan Harries is a British designer and an architect-in-training at Parsons School of Design.
In 2011, he founded the popular UA-cam blog JacksGap with his twin brother Jack Harries. The blog has more than 4.1 million subscribers and 200 million views. The brothers have used their influence on UA-cam and social media to drive dialogue around social and environmental challenges such as mental health and climate change.
In 2015, Finn moved from London to New York to pursue a degree in architecture at Parsons School of Design. He will graduate in 2018. Finn also sits on the Executive Board of an American 501(c)(3) non-profit called The School Fund, where he advises on design and digital strategy. The School Fund provides scholarships to ambitious students in developing countries by crowdfunding what is needed and distributing grants through local partners in the countries where they work. 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
It's so wonderful to witness two brothers on UA-cam blossom into thoughtful young men, and to have them utilise their platform for good ❤
B Vegan I wish he would have mentioned that but I know Jack is contributing a lot towards the vegan community. So I think it’s safe to say that we should be proud of them
exactly! not like most youtubers who do nothing but consume unnecessary things and go on unnecessary travels!!!
...and they peddle this pseudo intellectual nonsense while trying to remain relevant. just sad to watch really.
the fact that he (and jack) are doing such amazing work makes me so proud. they were just boys who made videos on youtube and now look at them, literally changing the world.
wtf dude
oh trust me i'm really aware of that. Finn and Jack (his brother) are both vegan so the fact that Finn didn't mention it doesn't mean he doesn't support it or is unaware of it. he was supposed to talk about CLIMATE CHANGE from the perspective of a designer and architect student and that doesn't involve the way we eat- of course he would've mentioned it otherwise. so yeah, i still think they're both doing amazing work and this TED talk is a piece of that.
When I first saw you on Jacksgap years ago, I just thought you were funny and handsome but now that I know what you are up to I really think you're such an charming, creative and incredible person with a huge heart. Everyone who has met you is really truly lucky and maybe you won't read this but it feels good to speak it out, i wish you the best in all your proyects and i'm shure you will make a change, if it doesn't is in the environment it will be in the people who follows you
B Vegan I know that Jack is vegan but I'm not sure if Finn is.
B Vegan they’re both vegan
BECAUSE HE IS GOOD LOOKING. UNATTRACTIVE GUYS CANNOT MAKE ENOUGH MONEY TO DO WHAT HE DOES AND LIKELY HE IS SUPPORTED BY HIS WEALTHY FAMILY. NOT ONLY THAT BUT YOU ONLY CARE ABOUT HIM BECAUSE HE IS GOOD LOOKING. IF HE WERE NOT GOOD LOOKING HE WOULD NOT BE KNOWN BY MILLIONS. THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF UA-cam CHANNELS MADE BY UNATTRACTIVE GUYS... THEY BARELY GET OVER 50 VIEWS A VIDEO EVEN AFTER SEVERAL YEARS OF UPLOADING.
From kids in JacksGap Channel, you two have come so far. I'm so proud of both of you, Finn and Jack.
Two normal kids in Jacksgap channel, became two creative men. Time is go fast, what am I do.....? I am so proud of them, I should move on, too. They are really inspire me.
But it´s so hard, I guess I just have to get through it.

So used to listening to Jack's speech on videos and stuff, it's nice to hear from Finn too, such an important issue no one talks about, those two inspire me a whole lot. I'll never forget them, they're changing and ispiring my generation, our generation 😊
he really grew up❤️
Thank you Finn, since day one that I saw your youtube channel with your brother you have inspired me not only to take action into things that matter such as environmental impact or education problems nowaday, but to inspire people to do it too . I hope someday people will hear my voice and much others' too, so glad that people like you have that great opportunity. Hopefully this is the key to change, great speach man. Love from Spain ❤
I remember watching Jack and Finn as young boys on Jacksgap. I've watch them grow into great gentlemen. It's so amazing and inspiring to see how far they have come.
Kinda miss Jacksgap :(
Lala Yeah, but when I See Jack and Finn now I feel a very good feeling
They’re kinda doing something a bit more important ....
Finn: *mentions Jack*
*a single tear rolls down my face*
Ok, seriously though. "Our Changing Climate" has been very present in my life throughout the past year. It stuck with me so so much and has inspired me to take the chances that I have and plan out a social service for my school which I should be starting pretty soon, as well as taking part in my cousin's recycling projects.
I'm really proud of what you two have become, and I'm forever grateful of the great influence you have on an audience that has followed you for many years. I really do hope the impact is even greater.
So so proud of you Finn for following your passion!! I'm not going to lie, I miss JacksGap dearly and it was a huge part of my life during its prime. But I'm still a fan of you and Jack and can't wait to watch you both on your new adventures. 💜
oh my gosh I just took a glance back at some of my old footage and realized I haven't watched finn or his brother jack since I was in middle school. now seeing this I'm so emotional. he's used his platform for such good in the world. I still love finn 😭❤️
My teen hero Finn is on TED!!!!!! Can't believe it XD
Both of you brothers are making me so, incredibly proud. I'm honoured to have been a part of your wonderful journey.
Gotta be honest though...I sort of pushed climate change to the back of my mind too, but now after listening to Finn, mate, I'm so worried 😂😂 It's quite a scary thought if you stop to think about it
Join Extinction Rebellion ❤️
Ask Richard Lindzen what he thinks - its BS - nothing to worry about
He and his brother are very inspirational. Went from funny UA-cam videos to actively making the word a better place in a significant change.
I love filmmaking and also love environment conservation. This talk is gold to me. So much inspiration. Both jack and finn are great human beings.
I’m SO PROUD to follow Finn and Jack through yeas and see them grow and progress! Such an example of intelligent young people who impact in their life and not just make money of UA-cam videos like tags, vlogs and ect.They grow and become real leaders. I support every thought expressed in this speech. Thank you ❤️
Finn you have become an influensive and inspirational figure and I've always loved your talks ❤ Stay amazing
Long time no see, Finn. Finally, after years I meet you again with this campaign and that's what makes me stand up again.
Thank you Finnegan, I loved your project. I'll use this video to talk about the power of younger generations to change our world in my class!
These boys inspire me every day to make a change and do good for the world. I have really opened up my heart and my eyes since I started to watch them. You guys are seriously amazing, keep following your passions!
Finn is such an incredible person I wish I knew people like him honestly and not because he's a known guy from youtube, cause I genuinely love what he and his brother do
Finn is very well spoken! I am so proud of him and Jack for the continued use of their platform to make a greater impact ♥
gosh...very inspired, love you both finn nd jack 😍
This was the easiest ted talk to ever watch hes beautiful and amazing
Seeing how far these two have come since the first youtube videos is insane! Go on boys!!
Nice to see the new generation is taking actions on climate change. Creativity is a powerful tool for impact, especially on climate change.
Fantastic, Finn! Congratulations on your presentation. What a milestone!
It’s amazing to see how they grow and how much they worked
incredible just incredible, thank you finn for giving such inspiration piece of your mind
his accent is not as heavy as it used to be or is that just me??
also this is so weird to see where Finn is now when I remember how young he was when I first saw him on UA-cam however many years ago.... so much has changed wow
Kaelyn he's been in college in New York for years now so he's use to speaking the American way so it's altered his accent some
It's wonderful to see him all grown up, and using his popularity to shed more light on issues that mean a lot. That said, I miss Jacksgap😔
This encouraged me to do more research on global warming, thank you Finn!
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU. This is SO amazing, Finnegan. And SO important.
Wow im so proud of him !!!!!
I Remember watching his videos with his brother back in 2014 or 2013 !!! SO PROUUDD!!!!!
he has come so far! it makes me so happy
I have such a passion for caring for the environment. I want to study environmental engineering and create sustainable alternatives to plastics, energy, food...etc. However, I personally feel very conflicted as I have always had a desire to travel so strong I do not want to be in one place for too long. I know how bad planes and other modes of transportation are for the environment, but I believe that if I, along with others, have a passion, we can figure out a way how to do so sustainably.
Finn's name is actually Finnegan lol
Nicole Tara What if Jack's name wasn't Jack all along
@@sharik6862 Jack's name is actually Jackson.
What’s lol about that tho
inspiring as usual
I love you more finn, really. Youre such an amazing young man!
I waited and waited for him to mention how animal agriculture is a huge source of climate change....but sadly he didnt
cow farts
Sadly that's the elephant in the room. 19 Billion cows farting and eating their way to our extinction. So how can we change this? Go vegan. Sorry there is no excuse...
Really interesting approach and speech , thank you!!!
He's changing the world. He's come so far. I just hope people don't ignore his message and realize that the planet's dying before it's too late. Finn said 20 years. Imagine what damage the environment will take on in the next 20 years? We really need to do our part...
Journey matters not the destination ! Thank u n happy new year.
Students r the future n future leaders.
Not leaders but killers. Killers of wealth, freedom and finally people.
Proud of you finn💙💙💙
Finnfinnthebettertwin! I love this speech, thank you
this video overwhelmingly encourage and motivate to take action for climate
Wow. So proud of the two of you.
feeling like a proud mom! i loved this!
WOW no words, well spoken!
Aun recuerdo cuando estabas en Jacksgap😭❤
You're the Greatest of all time.
I’ve been waiting for this for so long 😂🙏🏽
thank you for mentioning Indonesia as good examples
They're like youtube's Emma Watson
Who was waiting for this video and this speech ?? Like mee
this came up in my recommendation and I DIDNT KNOW IT'S FINN omggggg.
Great talk 👍🏻
his mom must be so freakin proud ❤️❤️
Please Russian subtitles! Пожалуйста русские субтитры! Хотим спасти планету!
This
Is
Amazing.
WELL DONE FINNY!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼❤️
That's simply a fantastic speech.
👍you are inspirational and gorgeous..
I admire him for what he has become and for using his popularity to such a great cause. I absolutely agreed with everything he was saying until he mentioned the bamboo structure he helped design in NYC. Building bamboo structures is NOT a solution since it's the main reason pandas are endangered. They used to live in Laos, Vietnam and China and nowadays there are only about 1,800 of them and they can only be found in China and all due to deforestation.
Well said!
This made me fall in love with him even more
Oh wow, I use to have a crush on them both when I was a young teen 🤧
i miss finn and jack videos
Well done mate ✌🏼
bamboo is better painted for longlasting and not to grow mold or fugus on in a short time. We grow bamboo alot here and make furniture and decoration .
Yes, Finn!!! 👍🏼❤️
sea level and warming, fill in the deserts below sea level with water, lowers sea level and the water reflects sunlight and evaporation takes energy up to atmosphere
I love the fact that your really putting real thought into the subject, rather than making rude remarks about it. If everyone did that we could actually come up with some good solutions.
i feel like my brain just exploded. until u said jacksgap i thought u were some random hot person but i remember u now and im so shook
Yes, Finn!!! 🙆❤
this is awsome
why doesn't this have more views
Utmost stupidity is not worth waching.
FINNNNNNNN!!!!😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Two years have passed and we still haven't done anything effective to reduce it..
100 years have past and nothing has happened.
FINN FINN THE BETTER TWIN
Chaotic Diamond 😐
I remember!!!
And now for sure I have a crush on this smart, sweet,handsome,and lovely man ... He is such a good person for doing letting us know what in the world is happening because of our carelessness...STOP GLOBAL WARMING PEOPLE! let's love nature!❤️❤️❤️❤️ the environment has done a lot for us. It's a small pay back to care and help us win against climate change .Let's open our eyes blinded by society and see how nature beauty is something to love... animals and creatures like us deserve more love and care instead of extinction.... tress deserve care but we cut them a lot the time... the oceans don't deserve no plastic but their it is floating... the earth deserve better than this!!! Let's start the change guys, cause if we don't start now? When? If we don't, then who? Nobody! So please see things through and help even by small steps... spread love and care because God is Love and he made us because he loved us ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😁😁😁😁😁😄😄😄😄😄😁😇😇😇😇😇😊😊😊😊😊😀😄😄😄😄🙂🙂😚😚😚😍❤️️❤️️❤️️❤️️❤️️😘😘😘😘😘😘😘❤️️❤️️❤️️❤️️❤️️
very good
💗
I'm today's old when I found out Finn Harris's real name is Finnegan Harris 😂💖💕
Very effective public speaker, I suspect your acting background is helpful. Let's hope young people are willing to fight to save the planet, because that is the ultimate goal of Climate Change, to stop the collapse of the world. When worldwide drought comes, that causes the worldwide collapse of agriculture, and the collapse on this scale of agriculture means the world wide collapse of the economy, none of which will be helped by the worldwide collapse of the oceans. This is indeed the defining disaster of our lifetimes. If we don't started SOON, it means a complete collapse of society. This is nature doing a much needed reset. This means a massive portion of the world population destroyed. This means the collapse of infrastructure. This mean, well perhaps not going back to the Stone Age, but going back very close to the Bronze age. Given that we only have one EARTH to exploit, we either get consumption and population under control, or we except the inevitable collapse of society worldwide.
U
💯💯💯 goodjob
i feel like a proud mom
Kinda miss their vids
Worth the 13mins of your life that you won't get back. 😂 So proud of you Finny! xx
yes!
You go Finn!
THIS DUDE WAS GOOFING AROUND IN HIS UA-cam VIDEOS IN 2012 AND NOW THIS IS HIM!? 😵
Proud of you
FINN FINN THE BETTER TWIN!
Wow. I am inspired.
wow
Is he the guy from film teory?
underground sealed rail system, 1:250 fuel savings over flying, at least, faster, and can go in oceans using bouyancy to float the tubes 250 ft below the water, straight as an arrow and smooth the whole way, use massive extra jet fuel that has to be used for energy until we get a hold of lowering energy
