Colorado Springs Cool Science Festival

A frank discussion of sustainability and environmentalism.

UCCS University Cener (Lecture room 124)

A special event of the <a href="https://www.coolscience.org/cool-science-festival-schedule.html" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">2022 Colorado Springs Cool Science Festival.</a>This adult-oriented lecture will be on the topic of sustainability and environmentalism. We will dive deep into how environmentalism should be looked at as compared to how it is currently being perceived by the general public. Using them as case studies, we discuss the pros and cons of electric vehicles, the impact that the beef industry has on the environment, and the crisis that Asian countries are dealing with when it comes to air pollution. We hope to be a catalyst for objective and critical thinking on significant gaps &amp; blind-spots in environmentalism across the globe.Location: University Center, Lecture Room 121(UCTR on <a href="https://map.uccs.edu" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">campus map</a>). <a href="https://pts.uccs.edu/uccs-parking-map" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer"></a><a href="https://pts.uccs.edu/visitors-prospective-students" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Visitor parking</a> is available in the Gateway Garage (GTWG) or Lot 220 on this <a href="https://pts.uccs.edu/sites/g/files/kjihxj1161/files/2021-08/Parking%20Map%202021.pdf" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">parking map</a>.Adults (high school students welcome), 40 maximum.Host: <a href="http://kkrishenergy.com/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">KKrish Energy</a>, <a href="https://eas.uccs.edu/mae" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">UCCS Dept. of Mechanical &amp; Aerospace Engineering</a>
