Maritime transportation emits a billion tonnes of CO2 annually, facing new IMO regulations to cut emissions by 50% by 2050. Traditional electric boats struggle with limited range due to water density, hindering industry innovation.

This talk introduces a revolutionary boat class, combining America’s Cup hydrofoiling, Formula One electric drivetrains, and aerospace flight control. Hydrofoils lift the hull, reducing drag by over 90% and dramatically extending range. This technology promises to revolutionize maritime transport with improved comfort, quiet operation, and zero wake.

Katrina, an aeronautical engineer, leads efforts at Artemis Technologies and the Belfast Maritime Consortium to develop these zero-emission passenger ferries. This presentation was given at a TEDx event. Learn more at ted.com/tedx.

Cities are pivotal for transitioning to a circular economy. Currently, they consume over 75% of natural resources, generate 50% of global waste, and emit 60-80% of greenhouse gases due to a linear "take-make-waste" model. As urban populations grow, the circular economy offers a vital framework to address climate change and post-pandemic recovery, unlocking economic, environmental, and societal benefits.

City governments, leveraging policy, can lead this shift by engaging public and private stakeholders. This episode, powered by Restream, features the Ellen MacArthur Foundation’s Strategic Partner Cities—London, New York City, and São Paulo—discussing their progress in advancing circular economy solutions.
