Solar power – the natural resource of energyLaura Lee
The solar energy is the only thing that will help in maintaining and leaving behind this beautiful environment that we currently have the privilege of enjoying.
The Nonprofit Energy Alliance is not a formal or contractual group, but an alliance of like-minded nonprofits who have joined together to use their collective purchasing power to not only secure competitive electricity supply at lower cost, but to protect the environment and build a greener economy. The Nonprofit Energy Alliance is a collaboration between the Arts and Humanities Council of Montgomery County, Nonprofit Montgomery and Nonprofit Roundtable of Greater Washington. More information is available at http://nonprofitenergyalliance.org.
The main types of pollution are noise, air, water and light. Domestic/Commercial/ Motor Vehicles have the highest percentage of greenhouse gas emissions. Sydney has geographical problems which effects the air circulation cycle. How can we solve Sydney’s pollution problem? Reducing cars by creating a one house, one car’ initiative and constructing sustainable villages.

Going Green: Going Green via Distance Learning
Sponsored & Hosted by: Wimba, Inc. (http://www.wimba.com/)
This webinar will explore a broad range of issues related to going green via distance learning. With gasoline prices still uncomfortably high, more and more students and business professionals are looking to Distance Learning to continue their education. According to the New York Times, colleges from Massachusetts and Florida to Texas and Oregon have reported significant increases in online enrollment. And with no relief in sight for fuel prices, this increase is likely to continue. Specific areas of interest may focus on how organizations are using distance learning to lead much greener and more productive environment globally.

Changing workplace cultures is part of the strategy for sustainable strategies: Move from a workplace ‘culture
of attendance’ to a ‘culture of performance’. Telstra’s Group Manager for Environment, Turlough Guerin reinforces this culture shift when he says: “Work is something you do, not
somewhere you go.”

Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
