SUMMARY:Finger Lakes Book Group Meeting – "No Miracles Needed\," Mark Z. Jacobson\, Part 1 (Part 2 on Oct 28)
DESCRIPTION:The Finger Lakes Book Group will meet on Monday\, October 7\, 2024 at 7 pm. We will be reading:“No Miracles Needed: How today’s technology can save our climate and clean our air” – Mark Z. Jacobson (Stanford University)\, Cambridge University Press\, 2023. We will break the discussion into 2 parts. Part 1 (Oct. 7) Beginning through Chapter 7; Part 2 (Oct. 28) Chapter 8 through the end. We hope that the revised schedule will allow more folks to read a part of the book during this busy period (upcoming election and Climate Reality Leadership training). \n\n\n\n\nBook description from Cambridge University Press:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe world needs to turn away from fossil fuels and use clean\, renewable sources of energy as soon as we can. Failure to do so will cause catastrophic climate damage sooner than you might think\, leading to loss of biodiversity and economic and political instability. But all is not lost! We still have time to save the planet without resorting to ‘miracle’ technologies. We need to wave goodbye to outdated technologies\, such as natural gas and carbon capture\, and repurpose the technologies that we already have at our disposal. We can use existing technologies to harness\, store\, and transmit energy from wind\, water\, and solar sources to ensure reliable electricity\, heat supplies\, and energy security. Find out what you can do to improve the health\, climate\, and economic state of our planet. Together\, we can solve the climate crisis\, eliminate air pollution and safely secure energy supplies for everyone.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHere is a recording of Prof. Jacobson discussing the book with Ken Cook of Environmental Working Group and the following discussion (webinar starts 14:40 minutes into the recording).\n\n\n\n\n\nNote also that the book can serve as a reference – use the Table of Contents to find the topic of interest and go directly there.\n\n\nFor those interested in learning more about the nuclear power option\, here is a TED debate from February 2010 with Prof. Jacobson and Stewart Brand\, “Does the world need nuclear energy?”\n\n\n\nJoin Zoom Meeting\nMeeting ID: 926 2795 7489\nPasscode: NYRocks

SUMMARY:FLGR-NY October Chapter Meeting: Student Advocacy in the Community - Sunrise Ithaca and Justice 50
DESCRIPTION:February 2024 Justice50 Community Meeting\, photo by Aaron Fernando\nIn 2019\, a small group of Ithaca College students with a powerful vision for a more sustainable and equitable future joined together to form Sunrise Ithaca. They quickly built partnerships\, support\, and enthusiasm around the idea of a climate just future\, and less than six months later\, the Ithaca Common Council adopted the Ithaca Green New Deal (IGND). \nIn the five years since then\, Sunrise Ithaca has continued to be an active participant in implementing the IGND. Most recently\, Sunrise Ithaca made a push to involve the Ithaca community in understanding and supporting the IGND and Justice50. They hosted two community meetings\, in which they presented the details of Justice50\, gathered feedback\, and provided people with information about how to get involved. Ultimately\, the City of Ithaca passed Justice50 unanimously in May of 2024\, becoming the first city in the nation to operationalize climate justice. \nThe featured presenters for this month’s meeting are Ace Dufrense\, a junior at Ithaca High School and the leader of Sunrise Ithaca\, and Siobhan Hull\, a spring graduate of Cornell\, Sunrise Ithaca member\, and member of the City’s Sustainability and Climate Justice Commission. \nAce and Siobhan will give a brief overview of the Sunrise Movement in Ithaca\, including the key role in creating the IGND and the push for equity through Justice50. They will also discuss other initiatives that Sunrise Ithaca is involved in and opportunities for continuing to work within the community. \n  \nJoin Zoom Meeting \nMeeting ID: 958 6631 3240 \nPasscode: NYRocks
