Geeks FSO is bringing to fruition an
interrelated set of programs and projects that address two fundamental
goals identified by leading scientists and affirmed by the RFPs
(Requests for Proposals) of the National Science Foundation (NSF).
Sustainability, and the need for everyone's participation (certainly a major increase in participation which suggests the need for a wider understanding of what we are facing both in the near and long terms of planet earth.)Increased participation in STEM by underrepresented populations in those fields. (STEM: Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics)In pursuing sustainability we are exploring the development of an Environmental Science & Earth Systems Urban Laboratory (ES2UL) to work on issues related to the quality of life in urban settings. Currently we are focused on reshaping urban waste disposal by:
Sustainability, and the need for everyone's participation (certainly a major increase in participation which suggests the need for a wider understanding of what we are facing both in the near and long terms of planet earth.)Increased participation in STEM by underrepresented populations in those fields. (STEM: Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics)In pursuing sustainability we are exploring the development of an Environmental Science & Earth Systems Urban Laboratory (ES2UL) to work on issues related to the quality of life in urban settings. Currently we are focused on reshaping urban waste disposal by:
- Reducing the use of energy in transport of the waste stream through minimizing the weight of food waste by removing the water by high pressure pressing.
- Increasing the amount of recyclable material removed from the waste stream through ("What's in for me?") STEM incentives for those population groups not achieving their goals for recycling.
- Providing an open court workshop for young people to learn coding of apps and create content every Friday afternoon from 4 to 7 pm at The Rack Cafe, 1844 Springfield Ave, Maplewood, NJ 07040, (973) 327-2353, https://www.facebook.com/TheRackCafe, with an open mic showcase from 8 to 10 pm on the first Friday of the month. (The next one is December 5th.)
- Livestreaming our activities in tandem with the tech workshop, including a live discussion of our ES2UL initiatives and their impact on the community, seeking input on how to improve our efforts from a wider audience.
- Looking toward the installation of a Free Space Optics (FSO) link to provide high speed/high bandwidth communications for the workshop.
