TED TALK VIDEO SCREENING AND OPEN DISCUSSION
The Lightning Jar’s Professional Events Series
Monthly events designed to promote leadership, learning, professional development, networking and building social and professional connections.
These events are a mix of social networking, learning and discussion, and will be held on the second Thursday of every month at The Lightning Jar.
This month's theme is Personal Growth, and we will screen two previously recorded TED talks on the topic, followed by open discussion and networking.
Social mixer starts at 6:00pm, the TED video screening begins at 6:30pm, followed by open discussion.
The Lightning Jar at VSECU, 194 North Street, Bennington.
Pizza, beer and wine will be provided.
This month’s TED features:
Al Gore: Averting The Climate Crisis
With the same humor and humanity he exuded in An Inconvenient Truth, Al Gore spells out 15 ways that individuals can address climate change immediately, from buying a hybrid to inventing a new, hotter "brand name" for global warming.
Donald Sadoway: The Missing Link To Renewable Energy
What's the key to using alternative energy, like solar and wind? Storage — so we can have power on tap even when the sun's not out and the wind's not blowing. In this accessible, inspiring talk, Donald Sadoway takes to the blackboard to show us the future of large-scale batteries that store renewable energy. As he says: "We need to think about the problem differently. We need to think big. We need to think cheap."
Registration and Information
Please register so we have enough pizza (and frosty beverages !)
For more information, contact us at membership@lightningjarvt.com, or call us at 802-321-3070.
