Good topic.
Week 4 [16.11-22.11] Renewable energy - modern wind farms – could be better?
Very interesting one, good preparation from the author, and a lot of informations provided. I would really recommend this one.
The reason is that it was probably the best talk I have ever listened to on TED. This was both very motivational and interesting because both the story and the achievements of the author were astonishing. It also describes the problems we seem to ignore nowadays, that we assume people just because of their grades at school. Last thing - the whole method of starting doing something from small steps appeals to me since I was already doing it like that.

Although the topic of chocolate may seem quite common, the article shed light on all aspects of this popular confection and pushed me to explore this subject further. The presentation was prepared very carefully with much thoroughness. The author provided us with the biography of the cocoa beans, and moving thought the cultural attachments to its usage in native cultures, we received a very detailed description of the chocolate-making process. I loved the fact that the author herself prepared a video, illustrating this process. Aside from the 'sweet' side of the chocolate industry, we could also learn about the dark side of it and its effect on poor communities. Furthermore, the presentation was nicely moderated, as with the author's fast responses I felt like we were talking in real life. Justyna's recommendations really made me eager to try something new. Overall, the presentation was thoughtfully carried out and reading it has lightened up my day.
I cast my vote on Week 2 [02-08.11.20] Food of the gods - by Justyna Woźniak.
It was a pleasure to read, considering that Justyna is no stranger to work in the production of chocolate. I'm glad she shared her experience with us and added a video of the production process.
