TED: A precise, three-word address for every place on earth | Chris Sheldrick

The video addresses the global issue of billions living without an address, highlighting the economic and social challenges this presents. The speaker shares personal experiences from the music industry, where addressing issues caused logistical problems. To solve this, a new system was developed, dividing the world into three-meter squares, each identified by a unique three-word address.

The speaker emphasizes the potential for this system to improve infrastructure and save lives.
