Title: The art of emotion – re-embracing our imperfect humanity

It is hard not to get overwhelmed with all of the issues in today’s world – between figuring out what to care about, who to be angry at, and where to start fixing any of it. I can’t promise to provide the end all be all solution, but this talk will remind you of what you are in control of so that maybe together – using the skills and knowledge we each already have – we can make this world a better place for generations to come.

Speaker 2: Ben Toms

Title: The history and future of weather forecasting

Forecasting the weather must be the easiest job on Earth. You can be wrong more often than you’re right and keep your job!

Turns out, forecasting the weather has a similar level of complexity to modeling the human brain. To help us understand why, I’m going to go over the past, present, and future of weather forecasting. We’ll talk about armies of nerdy human beings, supercomputers, and artificial intelligence. This won’t make your weather forecast any better, but you will (hopefully!) appreciate the marvel of modern-day meteorology and get excited for what’s to come.
