ESIP 2013 - Cleanweb: Leveraging IT to Drive Global Sustainability, Economic ...Blake Burris
ESIP Summer Meeting 2013, Chapel Hill, NC
Speakers: Blake Burris & Chris George
Thursday, July 11, 2013
This is a presentation on Cleanweb to ESIP (Federation of Earth Science Information Partners) conference session: Sustainability in the context of Energy-Water Nexus, Climate Change and Extreme Events.

Abstract:
Capital efficient, quick-to-market, IT-based solutions are driving smarter, more efficient energy use, enable the sharing economy, accelerate the adoption of clean technologies, and spread more sustainable behaviors globally. Accelerated growth in mobile, social, sensors, processing power, big data analytics, and other information technologies is creating powerful new opportunities to address the world’s critical resource challenges.
And just as information technology itself, the Cleanweb will continue to evolve in ways we can’t even imagine yet. The Cleanweb is a meme, a movement, a market, and a living, viral phenomenon − and perhaps the biggest impact and economic opportunity of our time.
In this session, we will focus on inspiring citizens to tackle constraint issues via hackathons and similar events in coordination with the public and private sector. As part of the discussion, we will outline how a global community of hackers and activists (hacktivists) are able to engage organizations ranging from well-known international organizations, like C40, to large government agencies, like New York City, to multi-national corporations, like Facebook and Twitter. Come and build with us.
Blake Burris presents Cleanweb at TelsaCamp in Kyiv UkraineBlake Burris
@BlakeBurris presents Cleanweb and opportunities for software developers and the maker community to create new SmartUps focused on Energy 2.0 solutions. TelsaCamp 2014 is hosted in a field outside Kyiv, Ukraine and operates totally off-grid with solar power. Hosted by Roman Zinchenko and his team at Greencubator.
The document discusses Cleanweb, a global movement that aims to leverage software and technology to tackle environmental issues like water, waste, and mobility. It is capital light, quick to market, and quick to scale. Cleanweb brings together passionate people in over 25 countries and 40 cities to use technology to change the world. Its goals for 2014 include establishing Cleanweb hubs internationally, hosting startup weekends in 20 cities, and recruiting leaders for Cleanweb in India and China.
The document discusses a partnership between the NYC BigApps competition and the Cleanweb Initiative to promote the development of apps focused on sustainability challenges facing New York City. The BigApps competition annually invites developers to create free apps using open city data. This year it has partnered with Cleanweb to sponsor challenges in areas like food waste, solar energy, climate resilience and smart buildings. The partnership provides opportunities for organizations to support the competition and Cleanweb events through sponsorships, expert advising, marketing and more. Interested parties are encouraged to learn more at the listed websites and contact.
The document promotes joining an ecosystem and conversation around cleanweb technologies. It lists the names and contact information of several people involved in cleanweb startups, venture capital, and advocacy. The document encourages the reader to get involved by joining online discussions with the hashtag #cleanweb and visiting the website www.cleanweb.co.

A quick pitch about my work promoting IT for sustainability, smart cities and recently, transportation, #urbanmobility and #connectedcar at Vinli. www.vin.li
The document discusses iterative design and provides examples of logo design projects. It describes iterative design as a step-by-step process that allows designers to start with initial ideas and refine them over multiple rounds of feedback and revisions. Examples show early sketches and concepts for two logo design projects that were refined over several iterations, receiving feedback at each stage from clients and other designers until a final design was selected. The process is described as reducing pressure to find a perfect solution immediately while allowing ideas to develop through iteration.
Pecha Kucha Milwaukee: Lessons Learned from SketchnotesMike Rohde
My presentation on sketchnotes, used at Pecha Kucha Milwaukee #7 on May 11th, 2010. Each of my 20 slides slide lasts 20 seconds and automatically changes, had to have the timing down!
