COUNTDOWN is a global initiative by TED and Leaders’ Quest, launched in 2020, to promote and invest in the bold solutions and ideas that bring us closer to a zero-carbon world – a world that is safer, cleaner and fairer for all.

For the fifth year in a row TEDxVitosha COUNTDOWN will explore groundbreaking sustainable innovations, and bring to you firsthand insights from a global traveler on the changes our planet faces. Learn about seasonal living in harmony with nature, the truth behind marketing-inspired overconsumption, and a local app dedicated to cleaning and monitoring Loven Park Sofia. Dive into the life of the Black Sea and get practical tips on how to sort waste properly.
