SUMMARY:Evenings with an Author: Michael Webber
DESCRIPTION:A global tour of energy–the builder of human civilization and also its greatest threat.\nEnergy is humanity’s single most important resource. In fact\, as energy expert Dr. Michael E. Webber argues in Power Trip\, the story of how societies rise can be told largely as the story of how they manage energy sources through time. In 2019\, as we face down growing demand for and accumulating environmental impacts from energy\, we are at a crossroads and the stakes are high. But history shows us that energy’s great value is that it allows societies to reinvent themselves. \nPower Trip explores how energy has transformed societies of the past and offers wisdom for today’s looming energy crisis. There is no magic bullet; energy advances always come with costs. Scientific innovation needs public support. Energy initiatives need to be tailored to individual societies. We must look for long-term solutions. Our current energy crisis is real\, but it is solvable. We have the power. \nMichael is based in Paris\, France where he serves as the Chief Science and Technology Officer at ENGIE\, a global energy & infrastructure services company. Michael is also the Josey Centennial Professor in Energy Resources at the University of Texas at Austin. His expertise spans research and education at the convergence of engineering\, policy\, and commercialization on topics related to innovation\, energy\, and the environment. His latest book Power Trip: the Story of Energy was published May 7\, 2019 by Basic Books with a 6-part companion series in development for PBS. His first book\, Thirst for Power: Energy\, Water and Human Survival\, addressed the connection between earth’s most valuable resources and offers a hopeful approach toward a sustainable future.

SUMMARY:Evenings with an Author: Dana Thomas\, Fashionopolis: The Price of Fast Fashion and the Future of Clothes
DESCRIPTION:An investigation into the damage wrought by the colossal clothing industry – and the grassroots\, high-tech\, international movement fighting to reform it by New York Times bestselling author and journalist Dana Thomas. \nIn Fashionopolis\, journalist Dana Thomas surveys the environmental and human cost of a globalized\, profit-hungry supply chain: sweatshop labour\, ecological degradation\, overconsumption\, waste and creative exhaustion. As awareness of the damage inflicted on the planet by globalisation and consumerism increases\, “Fashionopolis” investigates the way that the clothing industry has become environmentally and ethically unsustainable. \nBut Fashionopolis also documents renewal\, and how technology and purpose are changing how we buy and produce clothes: from 3D printing to clean denim processing\, from smart manufacturing to hyperlocalism\, from the creation of truly circular fabrics to lab-grown leather. We have all been casual about how we get dressed. Fashionopolis is the first comprehensive look at how to change. \nDana is the author of Gods and Kings and the New York Times bestseller Deluxe. She began her career writing for the Style section of The Washington Post\, and she has served as a cultural and fashion correspondent for Newsweek in Paris. She is a regular contributor to The New York Times Style section and has written for The New York Times Magazine\, The New Yorker\, The Wall Street Journal\, the Financial Times\, Vogue\, Harper’s Bazaar\, T: The New York Times Style Magazine\, and Architectural Digest. In 2016\, the French Minister of Culture named Dana a Chevalier of the Order of Arts and Letters. She lives in Paris. \nA book sale will follow the event\, with books provided by The Red Wheelbarrow Bookstore.
