Not Your Parents’ Cruise Control AND Girls On The Run Orange County

For the main portion of the show, UCI graduate engineering students at the Advanced Power and Energy Program, Van Wifvat and Blake Lane, take the fiction out of science fiction about ground transportation; slaying some myths and posting us on what’s brewing up about net zero and self driving vehicles. More details are available, where you could spend all week, at: http://www.apep.uci.edu/3/. Correction: the earliest autonomous vehicle research was conducted on California's Interstate 15, not Interstate 5. Then (min 42:53), Girls on the Run Orange County Board Member Amy Cook tells us how her organization is helping elementary and middle school girls develop essential skills. She has a longitudinal study fresh out to make her point(s). For upcoming events, and information about applying for board membership: https://girlsontherunoc.org/ Girls enrolled in the program will offer their own testimony on a future show that they will help produce. Watch in December that program.
