SUMMARY:Environmental Justice in South DeKalb: Water Testing Training
DESCRIPTION:Location: Everett Park\, 5106 Klondike Rd\, Lithonia\, GA 30038 \nDate: Sunday May 19th \nTime: 11am \nDescription: \nFollowing our series of environmental justice forums in South DeKalb this year\, the greatest community need became clear. Much more information about the health threats present is needed. While our data science branch continues to collect and examine information from many public data resources\, it is clear that more testing will be needed. We cannot wait around for governmental agencies to do this testing for us\, we must take this issue into our own hands with community testing. \nThis training is the first step in developing a data gathering community project that can generate a well-researched set of knowledge and tools to continue with advocacy for the well being of South DeKalb. And don’t forget\, water testing is fun! \n \nEJ-SD Water Testing

SUMMARY:The Science of Choice: Why Ranked Choice Voting Isn't Just for Politics
DESCRIPTION:The Science of Choice: Why Ranked Choice Voting Isn’t Just for Politics \nTuesday\, May 21st 7pm-9pm \nIn-Person and Streaming \nLocation: Mutation Brewing\, 5825 Roswell Rd NE\, Sandy Springs\, GA 30328\, We will be in the Speakeasy at Mutation\, Straight ahead from the main entrance in the back. Ask at the Bar if the door is closed. \nWhy is it so hard for third-party candidates to win modern elections? How does voting in political races differ from the way college teams are ranked or how the Oscars are awarded? And how can a business\, city\, or state choose among multiple candidates for a program without a costly and time-consuming runoff procedure? The answers to these questions can be found in understanding concepts from Ranked Choice Voting and Game Theory\, a branch of mathematics devoted to interactive decisions.   \nIf you’ve heard phrases like “win-win” and “zero-sum” or seen movies like “The Dark Knight” and “A Beautiful Mind”\, you’ve already been exposed to ideas from game theory. In particular\, we will look at alternative voting mechanisms\, and how you can implement them with your organization\, whether it’s something like choosing a location for the office holiday party\, deciding on what brand of coffee to put in the break room\, or how to select a board chairman from several candidates.  \nThose wanting a preview of some of the topics can check out the interactive web apps here on The Evolution of Trust and Building a Better Ballot or follow this link to Sci4ga’s Ranked Choice white paper. \nncase.me/trust/\nncase.me/ballot/  \nFeatured Speaker: Jason Quinley   \nJason Quinley is a Venture Capital Consultant and Data Scientist with a research background in applied mathematics and computational linguistics. He joins us by way of the Atlanta Society for Data Science & Business Intelligence\, of which he is the president.    \nJason has a further background as an educator and political consultant\, where he created the first Game Theory course for high-schoolers nationwide. His speaking engagements include talks in over twenty cities and five countries on topics like integrating psychological realism with economic theory\, modeling deception and cooperation\, simulating historical language contact\, and applying neuroeconomics to linguistics pragmatics\, and prototyping apps with artificial intelligence.   \nThe Science of Choice

SUMMARY:Climate Survival Training: Growing Edible Mushrooms at Home
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text css=””] \nLog Inoculation for Beginners\nDate: Thursday\, July 18 \nTime: 7 – 8:30 pm \nLocation: Unearthing Farm & Market\, 1534 Memorial Dr SE\, Atlanta\, GA 30317 \nEducator: Xander \nDescription: Food resiliency means having diverse sources of nutrients so that when one fails\, you have options. Mushrooms can be a great source of nutrients and are totally possible to grow at home. Our friend Xander will train us on spores and how to inoculate and care for your own mushroom log\, and potentially also how to do this with local strains you find in your backyard! Parking is free at the farm and all are welcome! \n✨Accessibility : the farm has uneven ground and can get a little muddy at times\, though it’s largely navigable and the mulched pathways are soft. While there’s parking and restrooms onsite and nearby\, please reach out with any specific accessibility questions so that we can accommodate as many folks as possible 😌CST Garden\n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text css=””]\nCST Garden\n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

SUMMARY:Georgia Energy Burden Community Event
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=””] \nOnline and In-person \nGeorgia Institute of Technology in partnership with the Sierra Club in Georgia released an energy burden report highlighting the oversized financial burden Black households face in Georgia. \nThe report shows how Black households in Georgia face disproportionately high energy burdens\, including historic discrimination and disinvestment in infrastructure. The report goes a step further than similar studies by conducting surveys of energy-burdened households to find out what other consequences they face when they spend a significant portion of their income on energy bills. \nGA WAND and Brown & Associates have developed a workshop on how changes in policy change your rates. After a presentation on the report\, they will lead us in an interactive workshop. \nJoin Science for Georgia\, the Sierra Club\, GA WAND\, and Brown & Associates for a presentation and workshop on what this means to you\, your community\, and how you can create change. \n\nAgenda\n7 pm – Welcome \n7:10 to 7:40 – Sierra Club Energy Burden Presentation \n7:40 to 8:20ish – The Public Service Commission energy workshop \n8:20 to 9pm – Community Discussion \n  \nFood and Drinks will be available \nAtlanta Utility Works – 2903 RN Martin St.\, East Point\, Ga 30344 \nRSVP now to reserve your seat. \nEnergy Burden\n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

SUMMARY:Georgia Science Junction – Are Crypto and AI a Sustainable Future?
DESCRIPTION:*Rescheduled from Sept 26th to Oct 3rd due to Hurricane Helene*\nAll tickets purchased for previous date will be honored for the new date. If you can not attend the new date\, please contact us at patrick.ryan@sci4ga.org for a refund. Please stay safe during this inclement weather. \nOctober 3rd\, 7pm – 9pm \nIn-Person and Streaming \nLocation: Lounge Area\, Wild Heaven\, West End\, 1010 White St SW\, Atlanta\, GA 30310 \nFeatured Speakers: Vijay Madisetti\, Fellow IEEE\, AIIA and Xiao Huang\, Ph.D.\, \n \nAre Crypto and AI a Sustainable Future? \nIn current practice\, Crypto Mining and Artificial Intelligence algorithms are very power hungry. \nWe just turned on two new reactors at Plant Vogle and 1 Plant Vogle Reactor (1.2 MW) can serve 1.2 million households OR about 6 Data Centers. As our power bills keep rising\, and average humans look for ways to lower their energy consumption\, will Crypto and AI gobble-up the gains we are making? Fortunately\, researchers are working on new\, energy-efficient algorithms. Join us to learn why the current practice is so very hungry and about new algorithms that can provide the same\, or better\, computation at a fraction of the power usage. \n  \n\n\n\n\nMore About Our Speakers: \nVijay Madisetti\, Fellow IEEE\, AIIA\, Professor @ Georgia Tech\, Cybersecurity and Privacy (SCP)\, College of Computing.\n\n\n\n\n\nVijay Madisetti earned a Bachelor of Technology (Honors) degree from the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT)\, Kharagpur\, India\, in Electronics and Electrical Communications Engineering in 1984. Following this\, he went to the University of California at Berkeley where he earned a Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences in 1989. \nDr. Madisetti joined the ECE faculty at Georgia Tech in 1989. He leads several research and educational programs at Georgia Tech in the area of digital signal processing\, embedded computing systems\, chip design\, wireless and telecom systems\, and systems engineering. He has authored or edited several books\, including VLSI Digital Signal Processors (1995) and the Digital Signal Processing Handbook (Second Edition\, 2010). He is also a frequent consultant to the industry. \nDr. Madisetti is a Fellow of the IEEE and was awarded the 2006 Frederick Emmons Terman Medal by the American Society of Engineering Education (ASEE) and HP Corporations for his contributions to electrical engineering. He is currently serving on several campus initiatives\, and is the Executive Director of Georgia Tech’s India Initiative. Dr. Madisetti also received the Georgia Tech Doctoral Thesis Advisor Award from Georgia Tech in 2001. \n\n\n\nXiao Huang\, Ph.D.\, Assistant Professor\, Department of Environmental Sciences\, Emory University \n\n\n\nDr. Huang’s research primarily focuses on human-environment interaction\, computational social sciences\, vulnerability and resilience\, urban informatics\, disaster mapping and mitigation\, GeoAI and deep learning\, and disaster remote sensing. Different from traditional geospatial analysis\, his research takes advantage of rapidly growing data availability through the utilization of emerging\, innovative data sources and the development of advanced geospatial analytical techniques to address existing/future challenges in disaster studies (e.g.\, real-time monitoring\, assessment\, and mitigation) and human society (e.g.\, human behaviors\, vulnerability\, and inequity) from Big Data and spatiotemporal perspectives. He built an academic career integrating his research and wide‐reaching public service while engaging with communities\, particularly socially disadvantaged communities.\n\n\n\n\nGSJ Sept

SUMMARY:Climate Survival Training: Sustainable Homegrown Protein Sources
DESCRIPTION:Climate Survival Training: Sustainable Homegrown Protein Sources (BUGS) \n## Oct 6th 1 pm – 3 pm \n### CreateATL \n900 Murphy Ave SW\, Atlanta\, Georgia 30310 \n\nThis Climate Survival event is a production of Science for Georgia.\nIt is free and open to the public.\nSeating is on a first-come basis.\nDonations are appreciated.\nThe presentation gets under way around 1pm.\nLocation: CreateATL\, 900 Murphy Ave SW\, Atlanta\, Georgia 30310\n\nInsect farming can produce efficient\, shelf-stable\, and sustainable protein without taking up the space of a farm. Our friends at WunderGrubs make a business out of this using just a couple shipping containers! Insects are healthy to eat\, highly nutritious\, used as a significant food source by millions worldwide\, and cut down by orders of magnitude on environmental impacts compared to animal protein farming practices. You don’t have to eat bugs! You can eat bug related products that aren’t buggy at all! They create protein powder which is great in smoothies\, pastas\, sauces\, etc! Its easy and fun! \nCome learn with us at CreateATL on Sunday\, Oct 6th at 1pm! We will be led around the facility at WunderGrubs by founder Akissi Stokes to learn together about this sustainable resilient food source! \nFree admission and parking in the neighborhood! \n  \n\n\nSpeaker\n\n\n\n\n\nAkissi Stokes-Nelson\, Co-Founder at WunderGrubs\n\n\nWe’re Akissi and Karim\, founders of WunderGrubs. The idea for WunderGrubs sparked years ago one night while we were watching Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations\, Haiti.\nIt inspired us to seek out a protein food source that provides people with the sustenance they need after a climatic shock and once the food relief trucks leave. Yet\, requires very few agricultural inputs such as water\, electricity\, feed\, and land which were typically scarce after such an occurrence. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFill out my LGL Form!

DESCRIPTION:Date: Sunday\, November 16th \nTime: 10 am \nLocation: Everett Park \nAddress: 5106 Klondike Rd\, Stonecrest\, GA 30038 \nWe will linger in the parking lot for 5-10 minutes before heading down the trail along the water to those first shoals\, where we will be doing our testing and mingling etc…. \nThis past year at our Environmental Justice Forums/Townhalls we heard that people want to know more about what health risks from water and air are in their neighborhoods. So we have started on two approaches to that. First is the water testing project mentioned above. Adopt-A-Stream is a state program consisting of volunteers collecting data on the water sources in their neighborhoods and the area around Everett Park along the South River is not represented in this testing project. So we are getting this started\, not just to gather and monitor data\, but to help the community learn about water testing along the way.

SUMMARY:Forensic Microscopy Murder Mystery
DESCRIPTION:This is a limited attendance event! There are only 15 spots available for this unique experience. \nDate: Saturday\, Nov 16th \nTime: 10am to 1:30pm \nLocation: MVA Scientific Consultants\, 3300 Breckinridge Blvd # 400\, Duluth\, GA 30096 \nClass size: 15 people (limited number of scopes) \n  \nCrime story: Someone broke in and left brownies. The victim’s sweet tooth is their main weakness\, so they ate them without any questions. They died doing what they loved from poison (their other weakness) in the brownies. \nSummary of event: \nA murder most fowl has occurred! It was death by chocolate from poisoned brownies\, which the victim could not resist. Microscopes can crack the case! \nJoin Georgia Microscopical Society (GMS) at the crime scene and microscopes to determine the which suspect is guilty. Learn from forensic microscopist how to collect\, prepare\, and analyze the evidence. You will examine trace evidence like hair\, fibers\, dust and (dun\, dun\, duuun!) poison to identify and compare to suspects using a range of microscopy methods from polarized light microcopy to microchemical test. Murders are no match against a skilled microscopist! \nThis Event will be hosted by MVA Scientific Consultants\, a microscopy lab\, and will be on Saturday November 16th starting at 10:00 am.  Free brownies are included (eat at your own risk). \n  \nScience of Redistricting
