Mapping the ocean floor, Earth's final frontier | Andrew Lunstad | TEDxLogan Circle

Why do we know more about the surface of Mars than the Ocean Floor? The ocean regulates our temperature, produces our rain, and absorbs a huge amount of CO2. It is a significant source of energy, through either wind or drilling, as well as food. Yet we have only mapped one-quarter of it. Andrew lays out how exploring the rest is not only possible — it could lead to an incredible discovery. A technology leader with over 25 years of experience, Andrew has started or worked in startups in online banking, video gaming, mobile applications, and cybersecurity.

He has also worked at established software and hardware companies including SAAS, industrial automation and networking, including Cisco Systems, where he was part of the launch team to create the world’s fastest router. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Watch the full recording here:
