TedXTechnion: Regenerating Coral Reefs with 3D Printing

Coral reefs are facing extinction, but a revolutionary combination of 3D printing and ceramics, pioneered by Technion Prof. Ezri Tarazi, might be the solution we’ve been waiting for.

In this visionary TEDx talk, Prof. Tarazi demonstrates how “Deep Design” is being used to rebuild the world’s crumbling marine ecosystems. From the Red Sea to the depths of the Pacific Ocean, discover how artificial reefs are acting as a scalable shield against climate change.

This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.

About the Speaker

Prof. Ezri Tarazi heads the Design-Tech Lab in the Faculty of Architecture and Town Planning at the Technion. His work connects industrial design, marine ecology, and 3D printing.
