The real crisis behind the housing crisis | Daniel Murphy | TEDxWorthing

We're constantly told that we are in a housing crisis, but what if that's not the real issue?

In this impactful and thought-provoking talk, Sustainable Energy Engineer and Carpenter, Daniel Murphy argues that the true crisis lies not in housing but in our priorities. Drawing on a variety of experiences, including building a tiny house mostly from up cycled materials and installing renewable energy systems, Daniel highlights a critical skills gap in the very industries we depend on to build our future.

Why are we not training more people to work with their hands? Why are apprenticeships disappearing just when we need them most? And why aren't we mandating that every new home produces more energy than it consumes - something we already have the technology to do.

This talk is a call to action: to invest in people, skills and innovation - not just property. Because solving the housing problem starts with changing what, and who we choose to value and prioritise. Daniel is a Sustainable Energy Engineer and Carpenter who has transformed waste into functional pieces of art and even a up-cycled tiny home. With a diverse career spanning hands on construction to renewable energy innovation, he has spent years proving that sustainable housing is not only possible, its practical.

Passionate about upskilling the next generation, Daniel advocates for Centres of Excellence where experienced tradespeople can connect with aspiring engineers and creators to help them learn how to build the net-positive homes of the future. These are homes that generate more energy than they consume.

Through his work, Daniel challenges the idea that we are in a ''housing crisis''. Instead he believes we are in a priorities crisis. A crisis that can be solved by valuing skills, sustainability and people who work with their hands. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx Receive SMS online on sms24.me
