the 2% Solution - Focus The Nation webcast

F8L · 02-20-2008, 09:30 PM

We tried to present this webcast at a small event on our campus but had trouble with the live feed. I'm finally getting around to watching it and was curious if anyone else has seen it yet and what your thoughts were.

The 2% Solution

"Focus the Nation will stream a free, live, interactive webcast called The 2% SOLUTION. Join Stanford University climate scientist, Stephen Schneider, sustainability expert Hunter Lovins and green jobs pioneer Van Jones and youth climate leaders, for a discussion of global warming solutions. Audiences can weigh in with cell phone voting. Our goal is 10,000 screenings—and a change in the course of history."

The intent may have been good, but the execution is tedious and boring.

I attended Focus the Nation at Carnegie Mellon and was very impressed with what I learned and especially the people I learned from.

Not so impressed with this webcast though...
