Sautee Lunch & Learn, a popular, informal adult education program, provides an opportunity to enjoy a delicious meal and some "food for thought" with old friends and new. SNCA members and non-members are welcome. There is no admission charge (donations accepted); we ask only that you bring a dish to share for the potluck table. Doors open at 11:30am, with lunch at noon followed by the presentation. We usually finish around 1:30pm.

We meet in the historic gym at 11:30am on the first Tuesday for 8 months of the year: February - May; on break June-July-August; returning September - December.

Everyone has the option to bring a dish to share or a packed lunch for yourself. Or just come to enjoy the speaker.

REMINDER: Sautee Lunch & Learn takes a summer break during the months of June, July and August.

Mark Farmer, A carbon-free energy economy
representing the nonprofit Citizens Climate Lobby

As the world navigates the transition away from an energy economy dominated by fossil fuels it has raised questions about the required upscaling of carbon neutral energy sources and subsequent reduction in energy needs that will be required.

As a State that has no fossil fuel resources yet has abundant wind and solar potential, Georgia is ideally positioned to meet this challenge. Furthermore, with the recent investment in plants to manufacture electric vehicles, Georgia stands ready to become an international leader in both clean energy production and energy efficient transportation.

This presentation will highlight some of the ongoing and future advancements in building a carbon-free energy economy and how these projects can benefit the people of Georgia.

Mark Warren, Design in Nature

Nature has a quiet, invisible force always pushing plants and animals toward success. We will have a look at both the botanical and animal sides of this, with our emphasis on native plants. What we see in our lifetime is the present version of each particular species' state of success, and it is worthwhile to remember two things about this phenomenon:

  • What you see before you is necessarily a view of what has proved to be successful up to now.
  • But the process is still ongoing. The force never sleeps.
