Achieving a 100% clean energy economy in the U.S. presents challenges, including modernizing the grid, addressing power storage, and electrifying transportation.

Russell Gold's new book, "Superpower: One Man's Quest to Transform American Energy," explores wind power's history as a potential roadmap for renewable success. It delves into the transition from fossil fuels and how to finance our clean energy future.

Join Lynn Doan (Bloomberg News), Russell Gold (The Wall Street Journal), and Jigar Shah ("The Energy Gang") for a conversation on redesigning the U.S. energy landscape.

In *Fascism: A Warning*, former US Secretary of State Madeleine Albright draws on her experiences and diplomatic career to provide a personal examination of Fascism's 20th-century legacy and its impact today. She defines a Fascist as one who claims to speak for a nation, disregards others' rights, and uses violence to achieve goals.

Albright argues that Fascism presents a more virulent threat now than since World War II, with global democratic momentum reversing. Economic, technological, and cultural factors empower political extremes, and contemporary leaders like Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong-un employ tactics reminiscent of 1920s and 30s Fascists. This timely book offers crucial lessons to prevent repeating past errors.

From a former Wall Street insider, *All the Presidents' Bankers* exposes the collusion between public and private banks. This searing exposé reveals how they seek to control global markets and dictate economic policy.

Central banks, the IMF, and the World Bank overstep their mandates, using money flow to exert control. Their dependence on private funding and a smooth "revolving door" ensures public and private institutions effectively work toward shared goals.

After organizing for fossil fuel divestment and environmental justice at Stanford, Charlie Jiang co-founded the DC ReInvest Coalition in Washington, DC. This coalition, part of the global #DefundPipelines movement, pressures the DC government to divest from banks linked to fossil fuel pipelines, private prisons, and predatory lending practices.

Instead, the Coalition advocates for reinvesting District funds into community-led solutions for DC's most under-resourced residents. Jiang provides strategic and narrative direction, helping organize advocacy efforts against fossil fuel extraction's environmental and community damage, including past support for the #NoDAPL movement.

Noticing a gap between student environmental concern and action at Wesleyan, Kate Weiner founded LOAM in 2014. Inspired by an internship, her student-run environmental arts collective uses a literary magazine and gardening program to engage students in sustainability.

LOAM's free campus magazine features student environmental art and writing. Its "Wild Walls" program involves students building and maintaining low-cost wall gardens. The collective has successfully produced multiple issues and installations, receiving widespread positive feedback.

Post-graduation, Weiner continues LOAM's mission, fostering off-campus sustainability exploration. She and her peers also hosted a national youth essay contest and launched a new online platform.

Inspired by a 2004 Wall Street Journal article on the E-Waste crisis, Alex launched Project WIN '05 with his Westerly Innovations Network team. This initiative achieved significant local impact, collecting 21,000 pounds of E-Waste and establishing a permanent town receptacle that has gathered over 60,000 pounds. Project WIN '05 also helped enact local and statewide E-Waste dumping bans.

Alex further integrated computer refurbishing into his school's curriculum, restoring and distributing 260 computers to students locally and in Sri Lanka and Mexico. His recent work includes building an Internet café in Cameroon, developing a UN Environment Program pilot for international youth, and launching a "Bridging Divides" program with U.S. businesses and schools.
