Playlist (7 talks): The forecast calls for… 10:54Now playingYou don't need to plan an exotic trip to find creative inspiration. Just look up, says Gavin Pretor-Pinney, founder of the Cloud Appreciation Society. As he shares charming photos of nature's finest aerial architecture, Pretor-Pinney calls for us all to take a step off the digital treadmill, lie back and admire the beauty in the sky above. 3:26Now playingPhotographer Camille Seaman has been chasing storms for 5 years. In this talk she shows stunning, surreal photos of the heavens in tumult. 12:59Now playingOur bodies get Vitamin D from the sun, but as dermatologist Richard Weller suggests, sunlight may confer another surprising benefit too. New research by his team shows that nitric oxide, a chemical transmitter stored in huge reserves in the skin, can be released by UV light, to great benefit for blood pressure and the cardiovascular system. What does it mean? Well, it might begin to explain why Scots get sick more than Australians ... 8:46Now playingImagine a country with abundant power — oil and gas, sunshine, wind (and money) — but missing one key essential for life: water. Infrastructure engineer Fahad Al-Attiya talks about the unexpected ways that the small Middle Eastern nation of Qatar creates its water supply. 4:19Now playingArtist Nathalie Miebach takes weather data from massive storms and turns it into complex sculptures that embody the forces of nature and time. These sculptures then become musical scores for a string quartet to play. 17:55Now playingDiving under the Antarctic ice to get close to the much-feared leopard seal, photographer Paul Nicklen found an extraordinary new friend. Share his hilarious, passionate stories of the polar wonderlands, illustrated by glorious images of the animals who live on and under the ice. 14:36Now playingAs Vicki Arroyo says, it's time to prepare our homes and cities for our changing climate, with its increased risk of flooding, drought and uncertainty. She illustrates this inspiring talk with bold projects from cities all over the world — local examples of thinking ahead.

Richard Weller: Može li Sunce koristiti našem srcu? Naša tijela stvaraju vitamin D zahvaljujući Suncu, ali dermatolog Richard Weller upućuje na još jednu iznenađujuću blagodat Sunčeve svjetlosti. Novi nalazi njegova istraživačkog tima govore da dušikov oksid, kemijski prijenosnik u ogromnim količinama pohranjen u koži, može biti oslobođen ultraljubičastom svjetlošću i tako blagotvorno djelovati na krvni tlak i na krvožilni sustav. Što to znači? Ha, to bi mogao zametak objašnjenja zašto Škoti pobolijevaju više od Australaca... Discuss Enthusiastically agree? Respectfully beg to differ? Have your say here.
