So the idea worth spreading in all this is??? Social media is a distraction to real environmental activism! Wow! The speaker should correct his website ... this is not a TED Talk but a TEDxVancouver talk ... just an oversight I guess.
Slacktivism is definitely an issue today, and Marc did a great job of painting the picture. We are lulling ourselves into thinking real change is happening, when all it has been is some talk, a lot of comments, a few fans, and a ton of useless "likes". Let's ask ourselves how we are starting with ourselves, and changing those around us.

I hope Marc's audience had the presence of mind to look up and stop typing. He deserves our undivided attention.
