This series, led by John Andrews, PhD, and Edson Brolin, is designed to communicate to a lay public the enormity of the world’s global warming problem and the options available to us to deal with this problem before it is too late. Each session will allow ample time for questions and answers.
John Andrews is a retired scientist from Brookhaven National Laboratory with extensive experience in energy efficiency and global warming. Edson Brolin is a retired engineering executive with experience in the energy supply field in industry and government and in energy research at Princeton University .
Tuesday, October 3
“The Enormity of Energy” and “The Impact of Fossil Fuels.” This program will dramatize the size and character of the world’s energy system and will provide the kind of factual information that frees the public from having to rely on commentators who may have their own agendas. Next, the program will examine the impact and benefits of fossil fuels, leading to a discussion of fossil-fuel alternatives on October 10 and 17.
Tuesday, October 10
“Energy Efficiency” and “Nuclear Power.” Energy efficiency is an area that offers much potential for reduction in energy use. Nuclear power is a controversial technology that has a large potential to replace energy now being produced by fossil fuels.
Tuesday, October 17
“Renewable Energies” and “Carbon Sequestration.” The final program will present renewable energy technologies, including solar cells, geothermal and wind power, and carbon sequestration, the storing of greenhouse gases underground. Dr. Andrews and Mr. Brolin will lead a discussion what has been learned and what actions might be taken to alleviate global warming.
Questions? Please call Edson Brolin at 631-537-1428.
