Lunch & Learn: Climate Restoration
Join us for an enlightening Lunch & Learn on March 10 at the Scott and Deanna O'Brien Family Innovation Center in Mihaylo Hall, Fullerton. We're thrilled to welcome the pioneering mind of Peter Fiekowsky, an MIT-trained physicist and leader in climate restoration efforts. With decades of experience in scientific innovation and social entrepreneurship, Peter is on a mission to restore our planet's climate to its former balance.
Over a delicious lunch, Peter will share his journey from NASA and artificial intelligence to becoming a key figure in global climate initiatives. As the founder of the Climate Restoration Foundation and visionary behind Methane Action, Peter is actively driving efforts to develop viable solutions for our environmental challenges. His work in ocean fertilization and methane reduction offers insightful strategies that could transform how we approach sustainability.
Don't miss this opportunity to engage with cutting-edge concepts and practical methods for action. Peter's insights into creating a future where humanity and Earth thrive together are not just theoretical—they are actionable blueprints for a sustainable planet.
