Energy & the Environment

Dr. Alexander Cannara

11 a.m., September 8, 2019

Dr. Alexander Cannara will explain why energy from fire must go and what sensible replacements can be. Everyone who has lived in an urban environment has experienced smog-related bad air days. Have you ever wondered why an “intelligent” species like ours has stayed with fossil fuels long after we had the technical knowledge to move on?

The forum will start with a short video and allow time to discuss the video and have your related questions answered. After that, additional facts will be presented and more questions taken.
