What can you do to help your children and grandchildren survive in a hotter world? Why is it so hard to stop global warming? How do we know it’s really irreversible?
Face these important topics head-on with engineer Craig Smith, Ph.D., coauthor of Irreversible: What Can We Do?
Dr. Smith has worked in industry on nearly every type of electrical generating facility, including hydroelectric plants, geothermal, waste-to-energy, coal-fired, nuclear, natural gas-fired, and solar power.
With coauthor Bill Fletcher, Craig has written three books on global warming and climate change, as well as several on energy conservation and efficiency.
He has a B.S. in electrical engineering from Stanford University and a Ph.D. in engineering from UCLA, where he also taught as an assistant professor of nuclear engineering.
No tickets or reservations needed, but note that Science Pub is a popular program.
Early birds get good seats, order food and drink at leisure, and enjoy a raffle to support science education and win Museum swag. Arriving close to 6:30 may land you in an overflow room or without a seat.
This event is part of the Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History’s ongoing Science Pub series of free science talks held on the second Monday of every month.
