Climate Crisis – Health and Climate Change

🗓️ Start: 23 April 2025 10:00 am
⏳ End: 23 April 2025 11:30 am

Climate change affects health directly through access to safe drinking water, sufficient food and secure shelter. Global heat related deaths are increasing. Agriculture is stressed by extreme weather, and tropical diseases such as dengue fever and malaria are moving north. What preparations are being made? What about vaccines & treatment? Is there a plan?

Just getting ready to present my #fediverse talk to #u3a Yateley. Hopefully it will be useful to the group.

yesterdays talk to @u3acommunities.org on #ipv4 and #ipv6 went well I believe. Although if I do it again I need to improve the flow a bit.

A CRISPR way to precisely Edit the Genome

🗓️ Start: 28 April 2025 2:30 pm
⏳ End: 28 April 2025 4:00 pm

Speaker: Dr Andrew Bassett
Head of Cellular and Gene Editing Research, Sanger Institute

The Sanger Institute is arguably the foremost institute in the UK on gene editing.
CRISPR is a groundbreaking genome-editing technology that allows precise modifications to DNA.
By harnessing a natural bacterial defense mechanism, CRISPR enables scientists to cut and edit genetic material with unprecedented accuracy.
This revolutionary tool is transforming medicine, biotechnology, and genetic research, offering potential treatments for genetic disorders, cancer, and infectious diseases.
CRISPR’s efficiency, specificity, and versatility make it a powerful method for studying gene functions, engineering cells, and advancing personalized medicine.

The Environmental Impact of the Textile Industry

🗓️ Start: 14 May 2025 10:30 am
⏳ End: 14 May 2025 12:00 pm

‘Fast Fashion Fuelling Global Waste Crisis, UN Chief Warns’ was the shocking headline of a recent UN report. But that’s only part of the story. In reality, the clothing industry is damaging to people and places in many different ways, from how textiles and other raw materials are produced, manufactured into garments, packaged, distributed and sold, to how we care for them, and finally, how we dispose of those we no longer want. In this thought-provoking presentation, Helen Howard of Canterbury u3a will introduce us to some of the main issues that we should be concerned about.

The 100th anniverary of the publication of Ulysses by James Joyce is being celebrated around the world.

Whatever, your input your comments will be very welcome.
