Documentary Screening 'Anthropocene: The Human Epoch'

The Canadian Coastal Resilience Forum and the Interdisciplinary Centre on Climate Change are pleased to present our inaugural documentary screening of the film Anthropocene: The Human Epoch. A cinematic meditation on humanity’s massive reengineering of the planet, ANTHROPOCENE: The Human Epoch is a four years in the making feature documentary film from the multiple-award winning team of Jennifer Baichwal, Nicholas de Pencier and Edward Burtynsky. The film follows the research of an international body of scientists, the Anthropocene Working Group who, after nearly 10 years of research, are arguing that the Holocene Epoch gave way to the Anthropocene Epoch in the mid-twentieth century, because of profound and lasting human changes to the Earth.

Seminar | Development of Advanced Metal-Based Energy Storage Systems, by Dr. Denis Y. W. Yu

Please join us to hear Dr. Denis Yu from the School of Energy and Environment at City University of Hong Kong speak about a new metal-metal battery that is free from complex material synthesis processes and can turn cheap and abundant metals into potential high-voltage batteries.

Abstract

You are invited to join the department for a seminar by Dr. Patrick Lee on his research on the process-structure-property relations of multiphase lightweight polymer foam structures and University of Toronto’s foam processing and characterization capabilities.

Please join the Department of Chemical Engineering for a seminar on the application of nanostructured materials to address challenges in sustainable energy conversion/storage and the environment by Dr. Shuhui Sun from Montreal’s Institut National de la Recherche Scientifique.
