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!

SUMMARY:Georgia Campus Food and Nutrition Security Summit – 2024
DESCRIPTION:Registration Closed. \nBe on the lookout for a summit summary in November! \nThe Campus Food Security Summit aims to shed light on the often-silent problem of food insecurity on college campuses by bringing together groups\, organizations\, and individuals who are working in and around Atlanta. It will serve as a platform to share lived experiences\, ongoing campus activities and research\, and reach out into the greater community. \nWe hope that by providing this platform for constructive collaboration we can pull together our collective experience and resources. There are many passionate people already working on food insecurity\, and a critical missing component is collaboration. The event will emphasize the importance of collective action and empower individuals to make a difference in the university setting. \n*Lunch will be provided* \nLearn More and RSVP on the main page. \n
