- Emily makes the case that ride and car sharing are not only a promising transportation alternatives--especially as the urban population continues to grow worldwide, but such examples of collaborative consumption are transformative agents for our economy and culture that increase personal freedom and move us closer toward the sharing economy.
Emily Castor believes authentic communication can build meaningful communities around transportation. Emily is an original Lyft team member who has helped develop the ride sharing service into what it is today as the Director of Community Relations. Along the way, she honed her expertise in the shared economy through work with Congress, political candidates, and Universities. She learned the importance of having a presence on social media, and has turned her social presence into grassroots mobilization and community outreach. From here, she is working to pass laws on Capitol Hill, and encourage policy makers to adopt ridesharing as an environmentally-conscious and community-based alternative form of transportation.
In her free time, Emily hosts Collaborative Chats, a monthly panel discussion for citizens, entrepreneurs, academics, and thought leaders to build community and discuss emerging issues of relevance to the sharing economy.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx

Having been on the front lines of many a battle over public policy and managing risk in the shared economy for many years now, I have to give HUGE props to Emily for a talk that is both inspirational, while doing a remarkable job of aptly framing the issues. Well done!
A new growth engine for our economy. I love this
The whole notion of perpetual economic growth is the problem if you dig beneath the surface. The planet is finite but people keep expanding and taking more of it.
This was great. Thank you for 'sharing' your experience. Your work is helping millions. Love your perspective on it.
Joseph Omansky lol
UBI can also be on top of sharing economy as it does practically the same things with no strings attached
Yup , drivers share 20% of every ride witn Lyft. The company owns no cars and has a willing army of drivers ready to under cut regulated and insured taxi drivers. What does a pimp do or in her case a madam. They take a cut of every trick. Lyft and Uber. literally Pimp Your Ride.
This TED talk can change your life (thumbs up!)
this is what i want i need
Thumbs up helped me.
Makes a lot of sense.
+Bruce Warren it's nonsense
and why is it nonsense?
Dayz Ahat yeah
Sharing economy is and was all about sharing data.
Strategic low placement of shirt to conceal assets.
I like the idea, but what about the cab drivers?
Joseph Watson adapt to survive
Jairo lol
Joseph Watson get a new job
Here's what will happen if this really becomes a threat to the current system, unless it is managed very carefully with awareness of the danger. Agents will try to break the shared economy by signing up and then abusing it. The people you loan your car to will destroy it. This will be ideological, not merely cynical. It will be just like when a new store comes into town. The existing store will have people literally come in as "shoppers" and try to drive it out of business. Mop cleanups will be needed all the time. Shrinkage will be terrible. Motocycles and hot rods will do donuts in the parking lot, intimidating actual shoppers.
Ummm...."William" is actually Nate Ruess from Fun. I'm pretty sure you can't go making up fictitious people for your presentations.
Sharing is great in a worthwhile context. But, people have no clue how the United States is being destroyed by design and are propagandized into their own demise.
at least now like minded join together and teach others a lesson.
does she still run the business in Covid 19 time?
That’s capitalism. Forcing people to work in places they don’t want to be at. Forcing people to work in places only the market values.
William probably got them cheeks....good job Will!
goddammit where is the subtitle??
Another model that involves money. "Sharing economy" is just another way to make money and can be exploitative to their volunteers, workers and the present system. The workers have to work several jobs to make enough to survive.
Not relying on your tax money, money from government funded charity organization and money donation from people is the real sustainable movement: unlike some of these models under "sharing economy" that rent something in exchange for your money is just another profitable form of capitalism in disguise. Do some research who they took from to start their business.
There is no disguise, this is the ultimate form of capitalism, which is why it's so beautiful. While I don't agree with how some of these facilitators do business, the ones that allow the individual to set their own price (Airbnb, Turo, etc) a just awesome ways to escape from traditional jobs and gain wealth with relatively low risk.
I just started up a relevant channel and have been adding content weekly, stop by when you ahve a moment!
