SUMMARY:Bikes and the Brooklyn Waterfront: March 22nd
DESCRIPTION:Bikes and the Brooklyn Waterfront. March 22\, 2013 \nMarch 22\, 2013\n8:30am – 12:30pm\nat New York City College of Technology\n300 Jay St\, Room Namm 119 \nFREE with Required Registration \nAbout:\n“Once you learn how to ride a bike\, you never forget.” Brooklyn\, however did forget- for a while. After an explosion of interest in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries\, Brooklynites forgot about bikes until later in the twentieth century and now\, in the twenty-first century\, bikes are ubiquitous in Brooklyn\, especially in its rapidly changing waterfront neighborhoods. There are bike lanes and bike paths; bikes are seen as an answer to transportation problems and as a solution for environmental troubles. In a half-day conference sponsored by the Brooklyn Waterfront Research Center (BWRC) and the University Transportation Research Center (UTRC) speakers will examine the issues raised by the history and ubiquity of bikes in Brooklyn. \nThe speakers will include: \n\nDavid Herlihy\, author of Bicycle: The History\nHayes Lord\, director of the Bicycle Program\, and Ted Wright\, Bicycle and Pedestrian Projects\, NYC Department of Transportation\nSteve Durrant\, principal\, Alta Bicycle Share operator of Citi Bikes\nCharles McCorkell\, owner Bicycle Habitat\nBrian McCormick and Milton Puryear\, co-founders of the Brooklyn Greenway Initiative\nBen Shepard\, City Tech professor\, community organizer\, and author of The Beach Beneath the Streets: Contesting New York City’s Public Spaces\nMike Lydon\, principal\, The Street Plan Collaborative\nChris Wogas\, president\, Bike and Roll\nDavid Trimble\, director\, Red Hook Criterium\n\nThe conference will include a screening of “Racing Towards Red Hook” with director Jessica Scott. \nContinental breakfast will be provided! \nAn optional afternoon (2pm) bike tour along the Brooklyn Waterfront Greenway will start from Fulton Ferry Landing \nhttp://bwrc.commons.gc.cuny.edu/2013/03/05/bikes-on-the-brooklyn-waterfront-conference-registration-is-open/

SUMMARY:MoMA Applied Design Exhibit: March 22nd- January 31\, 2014
DESCRIPTION:The MoMA has organized an exhibit on how design “has spread to almost every facet of human activity\, from science and education to politics and policy-making.” The Museum will have a collection of objects to reflect the diverse contributions design has made towards helping people respond to change which range “from a mine detonator by young Afghani designer Massoud Hassani to a vessel made by transforming desert sand into glass using only the energy of the sun.” To add an interesting twist\, the exhibit will also show a collection of video games such as Pac-Man and The Sims to showcase technological design innovations.

SUMMARY:The Limits of the Planet: A Debate
DESCRIPTION:Have human activities pushed Earth’s resources and ecosystems close to the breaking point? Is massive environmental and social disruption just on the horizon? Can science provide us innovations that will allow the planet to overcome many biophysical constraints and keep growing? Leading scientific figures debate whether the best path to sustainability is by stressing limits or innovation.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n*Reception to follow \nSpeakers\nModerator\nDavid Biello\nScientific American \nDavid Biello is an award-winning associate editor. He joined Scientific American in November 2005 and has written on subjects ranging from astronomy to zoology for both the Web site and magazine. Biello has been reporting on the environment and energy since 1999. He is currently working on a book about whether the planet has entered a new geologic age as a result of human impacts and\, if so\, what we should do about this Anthropocene. He is also the host of the 60-Second Earth podcast\, a contributor to the Instant Egghead video series and author of a children’s book on bullet trains. He hosts the PBS documentary series Beyond the Light Switch\, which won a Silver Baton 2012 Alfred I. duPont-Columbia University Award. \nSpeakers\nPeter Kareiva\, PhD\nThe Nature Conservancy \nPeter Kareiva\, PhD\, is chief scientist and science director at the Nature Conservancy.

SUMMARY:Public Design Workshop for the BK Waterfront Greenway
DESCRIPTION:Your Voice Is Needed! \nNYC Department of Transportation (DOT) will hold a Public Design Workshop for the Brooklyn Waterfront Greenway on Wednesday\, March 20\, 2013. \nDOT will be hosting its third public input session for the DUMBO and Vinegar Hill reconstruction project to accommodate the Brooklyn Waterfront Greenway. At previous public input sessions\, neighborhood residents brought up concerns about reconstruction of Belgian block roadways to accommodate bicyclists. At this meeting\, DOT will present revised concepts for further public input on cobble reconstruction and the design of the Pearl Street Triangle Plaza. \nBrooklyn Greenway Initiative’s view is that the City should not reconstruct any streets without making them accessible to bikes. Cobblestone streets were laid during the carriage age. They can be reconstructed in ways that honor their history\, while still serving all of the tax payers today who are paying for them. \nWhat is your view? Please attend this important meeting and express it. \nWhen: Wednesday\, March 20\, 2013   6:00 pm – 7:00 pm \nWhere: NYU-Poly Incubator\,   20 Jay Street\, Suite 312\, Brooklyn
