UC Berkeley’s Center for Science, Technology, Medicine, and Society (CSTMS).
Recently, David Winickoff spoke on Geo-Engineering. Cooling down the earth by controlling the sky — a type of science spear-headed by David Keith, previously of University of Calgary and my former sponsor of the Canada-US Fulbright when I was there some years ago. David K. is ultra smart and ultra famous, and now resides at Harvard University.
It was yesterday, at David’s talk, through an introduction from Chris Jones, that I met Ozzie Zehner, a Visiting Scholar at UC Berkeley with a newly minted book coming on the shelves about the pitfalls of green energy — in your book store this May 2012.
His book, titled Green Illusions, by all the looks of things, will be popular. Look for Ozzie on television soon, or NPR if you listen to the radio. We all got a chance to catch up over coffee. After our little chat, about all those et ceteras and so ons, we headed over to CSTMS’s launch of the undergraduate component, titled, Science of Society’s Course Thread.
The thread launch included food.
