Electric ity advances developmental factors such as small business development\, extended working hours\, access to communications\, enhanced education l evels and rural development. Energy can improve life of millions. \; \n \;\n \;\nIn developing countries access to energy remains const rained by factors such as limited access to well adapted affordable tech nology\, fragmented small markets\, prohibitive taxes and limited financ ial resources. On Dec 14th \, at the Copenhagen Climate conference the Obama Administration announced a $350 million dollar initiative dubbed “ Climate REDI” to promote clean energy technologies in developing countri es. \;\n \;\n \;\nJoin us on March 17th for a discussion wit h our expert panel\, on what kind of innovations in products\, finance\, supply and service can ensure reliable &\; affordable energy to the billions of poor across the world. \;\n \;\n \;\nOur 2 prese nters Michael(Kipp) Baratoff\, Principal\, Equilibrium Capital &\; P atrick Maloney\, Program Director\, Lemelson Foundation have been fully immersed in this space\, having been engaged with social entrepreneurs o ver the course of their careers. Lemelson Foundation awarded an energy g rant to Selco India for it’s Incubation Center and Innovation Department to develop new products and new business models to solve key problems f or energy consumers. The SELCO Solar Light Private Limited (SELCO India) is already an important provider of solar systems and cook stoves in so uthern India\, with products that allow rural families to increase their household income while reducing the environmental and health risks of h igher-cost kerosene lamps and inefficient stoves. \;\n \;\nOur ev ent organizer\, TiE Oregon Clean Energy SIG chair\, Ravi Sinha\, is the Chairman of Choice Solar India Pvt Ltd.\, company engaged in creative d istribution of energy solutions to India's marginalized residents. \ ;\n \;\n Bill Campbell\, our moderator for the evening is also a Prin cipal at Equlibrium as well as a TiE Oregon Charter Member and Board Mem ber. \;\n \;\nThey will bring an insight into problems\, econ omics\, delivery &\; growth of energy solutions. \;\n \;\n Thi s event is also a continuation of our theme “Serving the 6 Billion” on w hich we launched TiE Oregon in 2007.

Yo u are cordially invited to our open house\, a free solution based networ king event. \;\n \;\nAre you looking to get something out of the t ime you spend at a networking event? Do you attend green networking even ts to meet new people\, or to participate in a solution? \;\n \;\ nJoin the key Sustainable Oroville and Green Light Movie team for an eng aging conversation. City leaders are saying YES to “green” through Susta inable Oroville – a civic initiative that already has attracted a canola crushing plant (which will produce canola oil and meal)\, as well as pl ans for the nation’s first sustainable\, passive haus hotel. Since the l aunch of this initiative\, Oroville is gaining attention from other clea n-technology entrepreneurs and sustainability advocates who want to see it succeed. \;\n \;\nSo what’s the big deal? Oroville isn’t waiti ng around for the world to change … instead\, it’s taking steps to chang e the world. \;\n \;\nOroville’s journey into sustainability will create a road map that other agriculture-dependent communities can adop t. Capturing this transformation in a documentary film creates a proof-o f-concept that can be distributed worldwide. Through conversations with local leaders\, business owners and residents\, as well as sustainabilit y movement leaders\, we will show a grassroots effort creating change we NEED to see in the world. \;\n \;\nThis is your opportunity to p lay a part in a "\;think globally\, act locally"\; solution that is happening right now while being documented in the Green Light Movie\ , the Sustainable Oroville Project film. \;\n \;\nThis is not you r usual networking event. Stop by anytime between 3pm and 6pm. Stay as long as you like. Get one on one talking time with the thought leader vi sionaries.

C reated by author\, filmmaker\, and professor\, Dr. Wayne Visser\, this f ilm takes an optimistic viewpoint to climate change and innovative solut ions. \;\nDate and Time: June 28\, 2018 from 6:00 pm to 8:00 pm \; \n \;\nLocation: PSU: Smith Memorial Student Union: Parkway North 182 5 SW Broadway\, Portland\, OR 97201 \;\n \;\nCost: $5 \;\n \ ;\nGoing “circular” refers to the necessary change from our current take -make-waste linear economy to a borrow-use-return circular economy (some times also referred to as the zero-waste or cradle-to-cradle economy).&# 13\;\n \;\nThe key takeaway message from Closing the Loop is that mov ing to a circular economy is not only essential and urgent\, but also en tirely possible\, if we take inspiration from the pioneers\, such as tho se featured in the film\, and scale up similar business models\, product innovations and customer solutions around the world. \;\n \;\nIt will not be easy – and there is no “one size fits all” approach\, as the varied experiences across three continents show – but the circular econ omy revolution is imperative. As presenter Dr Visser puts it: \;\n 3\;\n“If we don’t solve this one problem [i.e. moving from a linear to a circular economy]\, everything else we do\, no matter how well-intentio ned it is\, will be like shifting deck chairs on the Titanic.” \;\n&# 13\;\n“After years spent working on sustainability\, I am convinced that we are on the cusp of a major revolution – nothing short of the next in dustrial revolution. The time for fear-mongering and demonising companie s has past. Now is the time for innovative solutions and positive action . This is nowhere more true than in the do-or-die challenge of creating a circular economy.” \;\n \;\n“We still have much work to do\, but our task could not be more clear. So get inspired and\, to quote Gandhi – a sustainability luminary before his time – be the change you want to see in the world.” \;\n \;\nStay afterward for a brief discussion about the circular economy and how you can apply these powerful princip les to your life and business. \;\n \;\nFor more information about the film\, you can visit www.ClosingtheLoopFilm.com. \;\n \;\nEve nt is co-sponsored by Consious Capitalism Portland and MonicaBourgeau.co m.\n\nTags: innovation\, economy\, manufacturing\, technology\, circular economy\, business\, sustainable\n\nImported from: http://calagator.org /events/1250473864 URL:https://www.eventbrite.com/e/documentary-screening-closing-the-loop-a -film-about-the-circular-economy-revolution-tickets-46239631984 SUMMARY:Documentary Screening: Closing the Loop - A Film About the Circul ar Economy Revolution LOCATION:PSU Smith Memorial Student Union: 1825 Southwest Broadway\, Port land OR 97201 US SEQUENCE:1 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20200422T160749Z DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20200430T110000 DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20200430T100000 DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20200422T160749Z LAST-MODIFIED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20200422T160749Z UID:http://calagator.org/events/1250476990 DESCRIPTION:We're excited to have the chance to sit down with Kate Ertman n for a question and answer session. \;\n \;\nHer life's work has been focusing on building from scratch — or rebuilding and reorganizing — the operational infrastructure for sustainable businesses.
