YouTube Originals presents the TED Countdown Global Livestream, an empowering event laying out a credible and realistic pathway to a net-zero future. Watch now and take action on climate change.

Hosted by Latif Nasser, with appearances by AsapSCIENCE (@asapscience), Don Cheadle, TED science curator David Biello, Christiana Figueres, Al Gore, Joe Hanson (@itsoktobesmart), Valerie June, Regina Hall, Prajakta Koli (@mostlysane), Rooney Mara, Dave Matthews, Amina Mohammed, Joaquin Phoenix, Charlie Puth, Michaela Jaé Rodriguez, Mark Ruffalo, Mark Vins (@bravewilderness), Forest Whitaker, Rainn Wilson and more, along with scientists, activists, artists and leaders from business and government.

Combining new TED Talks with live performances, short films, expert conversations and more, this event is intended to vividly explain the climate crisis, focusing on solutions and calling for leaders and citizens everywhere to step up.

Countdown is a global initiative to champion and accelerate solutions to the climate crisis. The goal is to build a better future by cutting greenhouse gas emissions in half by 2030 in the race to a zero-carbon world — a world that is safer, cleaner and fairer for everyone. Every person, organization, company, city and nation is invited to collaborate with Countdown and take action on climate. It is a movement open to everyone — and everyone has a vital role to play.

Countdown is one part of a broader series of actions and events this fall, all with the collective objective of informing and activating millions in the lead-up to a successful UN Climate Change Conference in November 2021.

Humble Robotics founder and CEO Eyal Cohen is one of them. Cohen was at Otto when Uber came calling, later followed Anthony Levandowski to Pronto, and after two decades bouncing between deep tech bets in the Bay Area, his new company came out of stealth in April with $24 million to build a fully autonomous, cabless electric hauler for freight.

Cohen joins Kirsten Korosec on this episode of TechCrunch’s Equity podcast to talk about AV déjà vu and what he’s learned from 15 years of building startups across electrification, solar, and robotics.
