Redwood Coast Telecom Resilience
Redwood Coast telecom resilience: how broadband, internet, cellular, and emergency communications are changing, and becoming more resilient and climate-smart. Join the Schatz Energy Research Center at Humboldt State for a conversation with two resiliency innovators from the north coast. Their talk will focus on solutions that are already in play — or on the near horizon — to bridge the digital divide and provide robust telecom service in rural areas. Karen Eckersley is a Communications Division Program Outreach Coordinator for the California Public Utilities Commission. She lives in Humboldt County, where she is working to help local Tribes improve their communications resiliency. Jana Ganion is the Sustainability and Government Affairs Director for the Blue Lake Rancheria Tribe, where she creates strategies for zero-carbon resilience. The Sustainable Futures Speaker Series stimulates interdisciplinary collaboration around issues related to energy, the environment, and society. All lectures are free and open to the public.
